Lloyd George
Going to Cardiff
His Influence With Striking Coal
Miners Is Great and He May
Effect a Settlement

London, July 15.-David Lloyd
George, minister of munitions, has
at last taken hand in the South
Wales coal strike and announced his
intention of going to Cardiff tonight
to have a talk with the men. This
announcement was made shortly af
ter it became known that new propos-
ais had been advanced which appar.
emily offered good prospects of set
Ting the strike.
Mr.. Lloyd George is very popular
with the miners and it is thought a
direct appeal from him will have a
greater effect than any other innu
ence.
A conference between the eXecu-
tive committee of the miners and
Walter Runciman, president of the
board of trade, had been arranged
for tonight but was made unneces
sary by the action of Mr.. Lloyd
George. The meeting has been can.
the executive committee already had
started from Card fl for London when
Mr.. Lloyd Georges Intervention was
announced.
1t is understood that new proposals
have been advanced which are likely
to constitute basis on which both
sides concerned in the South Wales
coal strike will be able to arrange
peace without loss of prestige.
No definite information has been
given out but there was another dra'
matte turn in the situation this af-
ternoon as the result of a communi-
cation sent following a cabinet meet
ing at the executive committee of
the miners at Cardiff.
1t was learned later that the pro-
posals for ending the strike original
ed with the m ners. They were sent
to London by the eXecut We committee
with the sanction of the miners lead
ers who believe they will prove ac-
ceptable.
1t is understood the plan contem-
plates temporary concession of the
demands of the miners which, howev-
er, would not be embodied in any
new agreement until the government
has had ample time to consider the
whole matter.

Swat The. Rooster.

Many who stop to think ,about mar
ket conditions no doubt wonder why
IL is that the farmers receive so lit
tie for their eggs al this time OF the
year. The first answer that flashes
up is because the supply exceeds the
demand. This is true only in part.
July and August arc not the months
of high production. The highest
April and May There is usually only
about one half as many eggs produc-
cd during the hot months as in tho
more favorable spring months. Why
8 the price Of eggs still so low? No,
il is not because the cold storage
eggs are keeping the price down.
The cause rests Almost entirely on
the farmer or producer. The quality
of the eggs sent to market in hot
weather is very much in doubt. The
Department of Agriculture estimates
that the farmers of the United States
are losing $45,000,000 yearly due to
the poor methods of handling their
eggs. One third of this loss is due
directly to the development or growth
OF the chick in the egg. This part
of this loss and more can be easily
prevented. As soon as the Matching
season Is over, which Is usually
about the latter part of May all male
birds should be sold, killed or con-
fined In separate runs away from the
hens. Ii this 8 done, no develop
ment of the embryo can take place
because the eggs are infertile. Infer
tile eggs will keep much longer and
retain fresh appearance better than
those that are fertile. In fertile
as soon as the temperature of the
egg reaches IS degrees +. and in
creases in rapidity as the tempera-
ture approaches the optimum lO3 de-
grees and at this point blood appears
within the egg and the embryo IS fair

Thus fertile eggs held in room wher
Thus fertile eggs held in room
where the temperature is 100 de-
grees for SO hours are practically
unfit for food.
In many instances one third to one
half of each case of eggs sent to
market during July and August are
unfit for food when they reach their
destination BUYERS have learned
this from experience and in purchas-
ing eggs, always make an allowance
in the price quoted to cover this loss.
Thus the farmers and the consumers
are the losers; the former is out the
