These rules are advised by the
Missouri college of agriculture for
the care of eggs;
1. Market only eggs of standard
size-2i ounces or more to the doz-
en-.
.. Sort out exceedingly large or
very small eggs.
3. Avoid dirty eggs by keeping
clean quarters Dirt can be remov-
ed with damp cloth. but eggs should
not be washed.
4. Remove males from the flock
as soon as the breeding season is
over. The presence of male birds in
the poultry flocks destroys 100000
worth of eggs each month during the
summer. Prevent this loss by pro-
duction OF infertile eggs. Fertile
eggs do not keep we'll. II costs money

that's where many OF the rotten eggs
come from.
6. Store eggs in cool, we'll venti-
lated places. Heat assists In chick
development, also increases shrink

7. Keep eggs away from odors,
such as those from kerosene, cabbage,
rotten food, fresh paint, etc. Food
also influences flavor; only clean,
pure food should be fed.
s. Market the eggs one or twice
weekly. Eggs deteriorate in quality
with age.
8. Insist that the dealer purchase
eggs on Gloss off" basis. not just as
they come in. At present dealers buy
all eggs, good, bad and indifferent,
at the same price, and do not recog-
nize the difference in quality. The
result is that an average low price

INFERT|LE
EGGS DURING SUMNER

Poultry keepers lose millions of
dollars annually from bad methods Of
producing and handling their eggs.
So says the department of agricul-
ture. One-third of this loss is pre-
yentable because it is due to partial
Matching of fertile eggs that have
been allowed TO become warm enough
to incubate.
The male bird makes the egg fer
tile.
The fertile egg makes blood
ring.
Money now lost from blood rings
can be saved by keeping the male
bird from the flock after the hatch
ing season is over. The rooster does
not help hens to lay. He merely
fertilizes the eggs. The fertile germ
quickly becomes blood ring in hot
weather. which spoils the egg for food
and market. Summer heat has the
same effect on fertile eggs as the hen
or the incubator.
After the Matching season is over
sell or pen the rooster. The hens
not with a male bird will produce
infertile eggs-quality eggs that keep
best and market best. Infertile eggs
will not develop blood rings.
The greatest trouble from blood
rings in eggs occurs in hot weather.
Special care should be given to gath
ering and storing the eggs during the
late spring and summer months. At
these times eggs should be gathered
at least twice a day, placed in a room
or cellar where the temperature does
not rise above 20 degrees F., and

would have realized 25c more last

slow outlet at about the same loss as
did steers. Very good cows sold at

$5.25. Bulls sold at $4.25 for the
best, calves were unchanged at a

WILSON IN PLEA
FOR LABOR PEACE
President Urges Calm Counsel in
Settling Disputes.
LABOR TEMPLE DEDICATED
Suffranist Interrupts Address at Cap.
ital-PoIice Take Her From Stand
Executive Praises Section
of Clayton Act.

Washington, July 5.-President Will
son dedicated ITO Common Counsel
and Common Understanding labor
temple ercted as the new home Of the
American Federation Of Labor.
He told a large audience gathered
at the dedicatory exercises that the
greatest barrier to Industrial peace had
been the difficulty of insuring candid
and dispassionate conference, and that
"getting our fighting blood up" was
"the long way and not the short way"
of securing rights.
Crowd AppIauds Speech.
Mr.. Wilson's plea for calm counsel
brought repeated applause from the
crowd, which apparently interpreted it
as having an indirect bearing on the
Mexican crisis. The president, how
ever, did not refer to Mexico or any
other foreign country by name.
"The way we generally strive for
rights" he said, us by getting our
fighting blood up, and I venture to say
that it is the long way and not the
short. If you come at me with your
fists doubled, think can promise you
that mine will double as fast as yours !;
but, If you come at me and say, Let us
sit down and take counsel together
and, if we differ with one another, un-
derstand why it Is that we differ, just
what points are at issue, we presently
in1 q far n q pt
after all; that the points in which we
differ are few and the points on which
we agree are many, and that, if we
only have the patience and the candor
and the desire to get together, we
shall get together"
Woman Interrupts Speech.
The president scarcely had begun to
speak when the first interruption
came. The questioner, Miss Mabel
Vernon of the Woman's party, was
standing only a few feet from him,
and, when he declared that in his po-
sitiOn he was not permitted to think
of any one class of persons, she
shouted:
IF you truly desire to serve all
classes, why do you block the national
suffrage amendment now before con-
gress? Four million women in this
country"
The White House secret service men
made their way to Miss Vernon and
quickly silenced her. The city police
led her away from the speakers stand.
She was not arrested.
The president apparently was undis-
turbed by the incident.
Nothing that the president said
aroused such enthusiasm as his praise
of that section Of the Clayton act de-
claring that labor is not commodity.
