SWAT TIE ROOSTER;
 SAVE TIE HEN EGGS
Experiment Poultry Expert Suggests Practical Method Of Preserving Eggs During Hos Months of SuT rner Season.

Eggs get very cheap in the summer season, and the producer is reluctant to dispose of his supply, knowing that the eggs are forced down in price at this time for storage The producers should and can enjoy the profit of their eggs. The eggs are bought at a low figure and placed in storage ana held for the raise of the market. The producer can do the same thing.
 Water glass is a safe method for storing eggs. To Is gallons of water that has been boiled and allowed to cool. add one gallon of water, sodium silicate and stir thoroughly. Pour this solution in receptical and keep in cool placa A cellar or basement that is well ventilated is good.
 Place the eggs i'll the solution as gathered. Do not allow the eggs to set around several days before plac cepticles with eggs to within about two inches of the top, allowing for a good covering of the solution over the eggs.
 The males should be separated from the females when the eggs are placed in storage Fertile eggs will not keep in good condition like sterile eges. Eggs that are sterile, gathered and packed promptly will keep in perfect condition for several months.
 
 Good recepticles are earthen jars, 50 pound lard cans or five gallon kero- sene cans with tops melted off Any farmer can use the method as describ- ed above with safety, but he must be very careful to pack select article
 Eggs tc be packed should be can- dled, unless known to be perfectly fresh and even then, candling is a good precaution.

ALCOHOL. SHOT AND SHELL.

The Reformer, a paper of Western Australia, writes of the effects of in- toXicating drinks in the eXpeditionary force of that state as follows:
 A little time ago 10000 troops were medically certified as sound in wind and limb Then alcohol began to put in it's fine work and in a short time 2,000 of them, either for behavior or sickness, were dismissed. Their places were soon filled, but neither the citizens nor the soldiers had learn ed their lesson, and so whisky or beer was still regarded as the bond of good-fellowship, and the test of hospitality. Then came along pneu- monia, that dread daughter of alco- holism. It was pneumonia in the camp, pneumonia at Albany, pneu- monia on the sea, and pneumonia be- meath the shadow of the pyramids. Some tardily recovered, others were laid beneath the turf or the wave be- fore ever they saw the flash of Turk ish sword or heard the burst of Ger man bomb.
 Alcoholism and pneumonia indeed can scarcely be separated, and the foremost physicians of England now are saying that they look upon the previous alcoholic condition of pa tient as the arbiter of his life when attacked by pneumonia. This first blood in our war was drawn, not by the bayonets of the enemy but by the folly of ourselves The foolish hospitality of the people and the drinking dens of the state joined hands in destroying our defenders.

HOW TO EDUCATE.

HOW TO EDUCATE.
 In the temperance education cam paign now being vigorously carried on in all parts of the country a special ized system is advisable. Dr. Wells Andrews, in Chicago Daily News, puts this suggestion into words that are well worth passing on.
 Tell the lumber men of Michigan, he says, how many thousands of drinking farmers will shingle their homes and barns or build new ones as soon as they quit their meanness.' Tell the shoe manufacturer of Massachusetts what it means to take all the bare feet of drunkards children off the ground. Tell the iron men of Penn sylvania that new stoves will be need ed in 100000 homes when the saloon keeper ceases to get the money, and tell the miners they will have work all winter through getting coal enough to put into those stoves. Tell the wool growers of Ohio that everybody in this country is going to be wrapped in woolen and sleep under blankets when the blizzards blow, and the men no longer heat up with liquid fire" in or der to exterminate their families with atmospheric cold. Tell the cattle rais- CTS of the West and stockyards men in Chicago that there is going to be beef on thousands of tables, where now there are a few cold potatoes Tell the grocer he can sell for cash and say good-by to bad debts when the dimes no longer go into the saloon till. Tell the farmers there is going to be an unheard of demand for flour and meal, butter, cheese and eggs as soon as beer drinkers cease fostering that in- dustry and begin filling out the hol- low cheeks of wives and children.

A NEW FAITH.

Although Maj Dan Morgan Smith of Chicago was never personally ad- dicted to the use of strong drink, yet he was for several years the able gen. eral counsel of the Model License league. He is now jealous advocate of temperance, and thus writes: Ar guments that once seemed so plaus- ible have failed me; for the founda- tion of my faith and the corner stone of my arguments was the failure of regulation and the success of prohibi- tion My faith is gone a2d my corner stone is displaced my structure has fallen, and 1t remains for me to help build another, founded on a new faith, with a corner stone as enduring as the truth, and that faith shall be called Temperance, and the corner stone shall be Humiliation 1 shall never make another speech in behalf of the Model License league.

FOR THE SAKE OF OUR BOYS.

A mother having expressed her re- gret at the lukewarmness of a certain preacher on the prohibition question. received the reply. But, my dear woman. it is not necessary to urge it. It Is right and is sure to come. It may be twenty or, perhaps, ten years, but what matters few years, more or less?" What matters a few years?" replied the mother with deep feeling.

The old question as to whether it Is an advantage or a disadvantage to a university to be placed in city is up again.
 Dr. Frederic A. Hall, acting chan. cellor of Washington University, that St. Louis seat of learning the remark able expansion of which, particularly in it's Medical Department, is a matter of world interest, expressed, when seen, the opinion that ground for a controversy on the subject no longer exists.
 That question was dealt with de- cisively more than six years ago." said Dr. Hall, referring his interviewer to an address delivered by the univer- sity's chancellor, Dr. David F. Houston, who is on leave of absence to serve as Secretary of Agriculture in President Wilson's Cabinet, and to a paper, treating the subject in detail, prepared by a professor of the university sew eral months afterward.
 "The points then raised in favor of the urban university seem to me to gain strength with age" said Dr. Hall, who, calling the librarian. procured copies of the papers of which he had spoken and presented them to his visitor.
The Prescott daily news., 1915-08-04
pr. Houston's Terse Argument

The Houston address, while dealing primarily with another, although re- lated, subject, includes terse argu- ment in favor of the urban university.
 "The advantages of city location for university are obvious" declares Dr. Houston in this. address. They lie not more in the large collections of available books and documents and in the interplay and friction of the minds of the strongest men of the nation, and in the frequent presence of the great men of the world, than in the existence of great institutions like courts, manufacturing establishments, architectural monuments and under takings, and engineering enterprises, which snake it possible for the student, and the professor as we'll, to keep abreast of the times, and to see the latest demonstrations of applied science"
 t The paper pointing out in detail the advantages of the city for a university is in part as follows
 To begin with, the city itself is a great teacher-a teacher of knowledge which no formal class instruction affords but which every student ought to receive.
 For all divisions of social science, tEconomics, Charities and Corrections, Education, Government and the physi- cal sciences Physics, Chemistry, Engi- neering), the city best contributes the material needed by the student. Some of these studies are scarcely possible out side of a city. Poverty, crime, and vice, and the means of dealing with them, can not be studied from books alone the student must observe the facts at first hand, and these he can find only in a great town-there only can he find in sufficient numbers. living in their own districts, the classes of people to be studied and also the institutions for re- lieving them.
 The life of the city, with its sharp contrasts of rich and poor has been thougat the ahief danger of our free government. f the study of these sub jects is to be of practical use. that study must take place in the midst of these puzzling and troublesome facts.
 In many subjects of study. the li- hraries of the city supplement the library of a university. Large libraries nearly always specialize more or less: one is well supplied with certain books which others lack. The presence in a city of number of large libraries is, therefore considerable advantage to the uni versity.
