hen and Now

When during the Taft admins
tratlOn il was proposed in the Unit
ed States Senate to intervene in
Mexico. Mr. Root denounced the
idea, saying: Granting that in
juries have been done to American
citizens that ought to be redress
ed: that wounds have been infllct-
ed. that lives have been taken 1t
does not follow. sir. that We should
begin the process of securing re-
dress for those injuries by a threat
of force on the part of a great and
powerful nation against a smaller
and weaker nation. That, sir. is to
revise the policy OF the United
States and take a step backward in
the pathway Of civilization.
When in February, 1913, AmbaS-
sador Henry Lane Wilson at MeXI-
CO City appealed to the Taft gov.
eminent at Washington to address
the Mexican government Of Madero
in a firm. drastic ann perhaps
menacine style for the protection
Of American interests. Secretary of
State Knox refused on the ground
that such an attitude might posi-
bly, precipIiate what the United
States was yln9 to avoid, namely

S2,500,OOO Ess Loss

From a quarter to half of the
eggs laid in the middle west during
the summer time are a total loss
amounting to $2,500,O00 loss for
the state OF Missouri alone. This
may easily be saved under ordinary
farm conditions, according to the
test recently made at the Missouri
Agricultural Experiment Station.
Eggs should be given practically as
good care and careful marketing as
butter although they do not show
the effects of poor handling quite
as plainly Any temperature Of
more than 70 degrees Is almost
sure to cause the development Of
germs. molds or young chick in.
side the shell
The principal remedy then is a
reasonably low temperature and
marketing the eggs at least once a
week. They should be gathered
every day and put in a cool, clean,
sweet cellar or some similar cool
place as quickly as possible. They
must be kept away from flies and
out of muSty easements, and if no
other cool place is available. they
should be placed in a spring or
spring house. or lowered III d buck

Since then two hundred years have

Aud thereby hangs my moral tale
the trail was taken up next day
BY lone dog that passed that way
And then wise old beIl.wether

And drew the flock behind him, too
As good bell wetherS always do
And from that day DER hill and

And uttered words of righteous

Because he wabbled when he

And men two centuries and a half
