JULIA WARD HOWE HONORED.

A large audience attended a mass
meeting in Faneuil Hall. Boston, to cele-
brate the 96th anniversary of Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe's birth. 1t was held under
the auspices of the Howe Memorial As
ISOLATION of Boston. Edward H. Glenn
ent, who presided, referred briefly to the
plan for memorial in South Boston.
Joe Mitchell Chapple introduced Mayor
Curley, who declared that Mrs. Howe
was one of the two greatest women of
the 10th century. He also spoke OF
the memorial planned for the Strand
way, South Boston. A chorus of 80
voices from the Perkins Institute and
Massachusetts School for the Blind gave
patriotic music. Among those who paid
tribute to the memory of Mrs. Howe
were Miss Alice Stone Blackwell, Mrs.
Judith W. Smith of East Boston, Mrs.
Fowle, who led in the" Battle Hymn of the
Republic" Nixon Waterman, who paid
his tribute in verse, and Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge, who sent letter in which
he said: 1.-The service which Mrs. Howe
rendered in giving to the world the Bat
tie Hymn of the Republic will be re-
membered in grateful appreciation by
every true American" The closing ad-
dress was by DR.. Shaw, editor of the
Christian Endeavor World.

RURAL DELIVERY SERVICE.

In 1898, the year of the war with Spain,
there were in the United States only l48
rural postal carriers, covering daily
mileage of 1900, at total annual cost OF
$50, 24l. Five years later the number OF
rural carriers first crossed the 10, 600 line.
In 1905 it passed 10000, in 1909 40, 600,
and last year was 43,O52, with daily
mileage of over 1,000.000 at an annual
cost Of 47,377,070 This service has
been of incalculable advantage to the
rural population, and goes far toward
making life on the farms more attrac-
tive.
1t is said that according to the figures
of formal bookkeeping rural delivery has
returned only 20 per cent Of its cost.
But the general postal department, is
nearer established self-support than be-
fore the great army of rural carriers got
to work.
The 43, 900 rural carriers who faithfully
make their daily rounds have rendered
possible the immense expansion OF the
parcel post, which has brought in new
era of rural transportation. This system
is IN it's infancy, even now, but there II

"Swat the Rooster"


GBy W. c. Monahan,. Poultry Instructor in
Agricultural Extension Service at the Uni
versity Of Mains]
"Swat the Rooster" is slogan which
will do much to improve the quality of
eggs shipped from Maine farms. The
breeding season in now over and the
rooster has lost his usefulness. Pullets
Matched from now on mature too late to
be profitable as layers and cockerels
coming late will be of little value either
as broilers or as next seasons breeders.
Infertile eggs are preferable to fer
tile ones because they keep longer and
are not liable to form FLOODING or
cheated eggs" A fertile egg often be-
gins to incubate before it leaves the
body of the hen. Every time there
after that it is above 81 degrees F. the
incubating process continues unless the
germ is killed by extreme heat or sud-
den chill. The blood films of the dead
germ soon disintegrate and form dark
blotch or "blood spot" giving the egg
the appearance of having been heated.
Such an egg when broken in a saucer
gives the housewife very unfavorable
impression, for she thinks that she sees
as she actually does see-the remains
of dead chicken, small though it may
be.
The annual loss to poultrymen due to
this partial spelling of fertile eggs is
tremendous and it can be entirely pre-
vented without cost or Inconvenience. All
that is required to produce infertile eggs
is to keep the male birds away from the
laying flocks. Hens will lay just as well,
| if not better, without escorts and at the
same time be saved considerable annoy
ance. By killing the cockerels after the
breeding season closes, or by combining
them if they are valuable enough to be
held over for second seasons service,
great economy is secured in the produc-
ton of better quality CT eggs and in
the saving of food.
Infertlle eggs carefully handled will

once day and stored in cool, dry
place. Dampness tends to make eggs
musty and they soon become added.
Draughts bring the eggs into contact
with too much air which evaporates water
through the shell thus charging the air
space and giving the egg when handled
the appearance of being much older than
it really is.
A cool, dry cellar is an excellent place
to keep eggs while saving for a ship
ment. The natural insulation afforded
by the filters OF regular shipping case
makes it an ideal place to store eggs.
Consequently, one of the best, as well
as most convenient practices, is to pack
eggs inc as soon as they are gather.

Much Of It Must Be Corrected by Expensive

Much Of II Must Be Corrected by Expensive
Legal Procedure Or Legislative Action.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June Z, 1915. '"As
compared with the Republicans we are
an unframed mob, with little knowledge
of parliamentary law and with very little
effective knowledge of the rules"
Senator Tillmap, Democratic senator
from South Carolina, spoke these words
in an address to the United States Sem
ate. In the light of subsequent events
they have become warning and pro-
phecy
The laws enacted during the last two
years are crude and faulty to the last
degree. AS illustrative of this fact, a
few notable examples Of the many blum
ders contained in the tariff bill alone have
been hitherto published.
''Lest we forget" brief summary of
these examples follows, merely to en-
phasize the general principle of mac
curacy prevailing in the Democratic laws:
l. The tariff bill as a whole was a
blunder, because it was a revenue meas
ure that produced manv millions of dol
lars less than were needed, depleted
Treasury being the result.
2. The provision for a five per cent
discount in duties on merchandise import
ed in American vessels, involving millions
of dollars, was declared imperative by
the Attorney General over a year ago,
and went to the Court of Customs APP
peals.
8. Another provision affecting hun
dreds of business concerns is before the
same court because of the insertion OF
an obscure phrase that neither customs
officials, lawyers nor business men affect.

4. A vital provision in the income
tax law, part of the tariff bill, relating
to deductions allowed in computing gross
income, must go to the courts like hun.
dreds of others.
5. The entire income tax provision
has been pronounced by the Taxation
Committee of the American Bar Associa.
ton, nonpartisan body, 'as open to the
gravest objections both in structure anc
specific defects, twenty-five imperfec
lions being pointed out.
6. Necessity for amending this law
has forced administration officials to the
work of formulating a report of it's cru
dities, as basis for amendment by Con.
gress.
On innumerable occasions during the
debate on the tariff and other bills, Re
public an floor leader James R. Mann Of
Illinois cautioned the majority to use
greater care, and gave one reason TO,
the dividing line between the two sides
of the House as "a lack of information
on the part of the Democrats.
Like Senator Tillman's utterance, these
words have assumed prophetic meaning.
Literally hundreds of other blunders
in the tariff bill might be cited.
Typical examples have been referred to
because they show the logical results
that followed the employment of sloven.
ly, Inaccurate methods of legislation.
Practically every imp ,rtant statute
passed by the present administration is
likewise honeycombed with needless i'm
PROJECTIONS, that must be corrected by
expensive legal procedure or legislative
action. They are facts with which every
one should become familiar. and with
that object in view the subject will be
dealt with in future articles.

Because railway equipment companies
lack business for their factories, they
are willing to take orders at prices so
low as to eliminate profit. Taking adj
vantage of the opportunity to get cars
and locomotives at sacrifice prices, some
of the eastern railroads have placed
few orders. And it is this sort of bust
ness that Democratic newspapers point
to as an evidence of revived industry.
The factory that takes orders for the
purpose of keeping machinery from rust
ing is about on par with the man who
works for his board to keep from starv-
ing. In each instance there is useful
employment, but it would be hard to in
duce either to accept such work as an
evidence of prosperity.
When the submarine F-4 sank in Ha-
waiian waters, it was suggested in plain
terms that the Navy Department had
neglected this arm of the National de-
Tense and that few if any of our under
sea craft were really capable of effective
work. Josephus Daniels denounced this
criticism as piece of malicious and
ghoulish politics. But now it seems that
fifty per cent of the submarines which
S tarted out in the war game" recently,
were withdrawn from the fighting line
by reason of defective machinery. Ks,
flagship of the fourth division of the
Atlantic fleet, went fast aground on No
Mans Land. XII, with disabled engines,
and E-2, with broken shaft, had to be
towed to port. d., GA and Ks were
reported to have returned to harbor,
their cruising radius exhausted. Sir
Josephus will probably explain at once
that this, too, is a matter of politics.
Over in Canada some of the Govern
ment officials took selfish advantage of
the war situation, and while appealing
to the patriotism of the people, placed
few large and juicy government con-
tracts with personal or political friends.
The scandal that followed discovery has
been a serious shock to the Canadian
people, 1t has also been a lesson to
Americans. Dishonesty knows no ma
tional boundary lines. While American
citizens will not be lacking IN loyalty to
their government in it's differences with
other nations, neither will they for one
moment relax their vigilance in scrutiny
of government business. Nor will any
honest government official ask them to.
Acts that are wrong in times of absolute
peace are doubly culpable when commit
ted under cover of the nations strained
international relations. If it is the duty
of American citizens to he loyal to the
administration, it is doubly the duty of
the administration to be loyal to the peo-
pie. When defenders of any admins
tration seek to avoid criticism or scrutiny
of its official acts because important
diplomatic correspondence is under way,
it is time to give special attention to the
m amer in which public business is being
conducted. Pitiless publicity was never
more needed than when public attention
is diverted from the ordinary business OF
government.
