COPYRIGHT, 1915.

The losses sustained by shippers of
eggs every year amount to an enor-
nous sum. That some eggs should
be wasted is perhaps unavoidable,
owing to the nature of the product it,
self; but the magnitude of the loss
may be attributed only to the careless
ness, or ignorance, of the shippers
themselves. Some facts every poultry
man should know are contained in
the following article.
.VTTHEN one visits the large egg
wv Gambling establishments and
w sees the enormous amount or
eggs consigned to the garbage, one
wonders who is responsible for this
and the similar losses, estimated by
the United States Department of Ag-
ricluture to have amounted, last year
to about $45,000,000, or II per cent.
of all the eggs shipped. OF these 2
per cent. were dirty eggs, 2 per cent.
broken eggs, per cent. eggs in which
chicks have begun to grow. per
cent. with shrunken contents. per
cent, rotten and / per cent. mouldy or
bad Favored. Many producers and
shippers complain that they do not
receive fair returns for their products,
feeling that they should have received
at least the highest quotations" )"
without realizing that highest prices
are paid for high quality only.
New York City pays the highest
price for No. l white eggs, while Bos-
ton and the best New England mar
kets call for fancy or No. brown
eggs. Yet of all the eggs shipped to
these markets, only about 5 to per
cent. are of the color and quality de-
sired for the best trade, while the
bulk of the shipments contain eggs of
various colors, sizes and quality.
There are also many fresh-laid eggs
good on the outside but containing
meat spots and blood clots easily de-
tected in Gambling, which may be mis-
taken by the customer for partly de-
veloped chicks. One can only expect
to receive for such egg prices in pro-
portion to their quality
Nearly all the losses and low prices
can be traced to the ignorance, care
lessness or indifference of the producer
or shipper and could be avoided If only
good business methods were followed
The poultryman should keen only
healthy stock, carefully selected and
bred so as to produce large, uniform
white or brown eggs. AS color and
size of eggs are inherited characters
tics, it is advisable to keep only thor
oughbred stock and incubate only the
best types of eggs.
Cleanliness the First Essential
All eggs should be produced under
sanitary conditions. The buildings
should be properly ventilated so as to
admit plenty of fresh air, which is a
most potent factor in maintaining the
health of the fowls. The nests should
be kept clean. and protected at night
with a door or cover to prevent hens
roosting in them and soiling them un-
necessarily. The houses should be
cleaned and disinfected often and the
yards either used alternately, or large
enough that the hens will have a green
range. Muddy feet mean soiled eggs.

EXPLAINS WHY MEN ARE GROWING BALD

Thousands of men are growing bald
 every day and don't know the reason
 why. Many of them never expect to
 save even what hair is left.
 This is indeed a pity, says hair
 specialist who claims that baldness
 usually comes from carelessness and that anyone who gives the hair just a little occasional attention should ai- ways have an abundance of eood, healthy hair. Dust and dirt help Co cause badness by clogging the pores in the scalp and giving the germs Of dandruff fertile ground for prolific breeding. Fs The treatment il very simple; wash out the dust and irt with any pure soap at least once in ten days and destroy the dandruh germs by apply ing every other night PaFisian Sage a delightfully."- efficient preparation that
 hundreds of druggists recommend as the surest treatment to stop haiR from falling, to remove dandruff and to re- fresh and invigorate the hair roots. Of course, like all successful dfs- coveries, Parisian Sage has been greatly fiattered by limitations which
 makes it necessary to ask for 1t by name. The cost of a generous bottle | is very little, and to supply the steady demand, The Lee & Osgood Go. ai- ways have an abundant supply on hand.

NEW RUNNING CARD
 FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
Chief Stanton Arranges to Give Most
 Work to Auto Apparatus.


 Chief Stanton has prepared a new running card for the various fire com- panies. The new auto bumper will respond to every bell alarm and the auto chemical at the Main street sta tion will respond to 49 of the 66 boxes on first alarms. The new card has been arranged so that the horses now in use in several of the stations will not be called upon to respond to first alarms as often as before, this being made possible through the motor ap- paratus which is able to cover more ground. The new arrangement will make it easier for the horses and at the same time will increase the effi- ciency of the department. Much care has been given to the arrangement of the card, more apparatus being sent to important localities than is sent to localities of lesser importance, so that in case of a large fire Chief Stanton will have his men right on hand to cope with the situation.

sToNINeToN SENATOR
 TALKS OF "MILKING'
Says That Is What Is Happening to Groton and Stonineton St. By. Co.

The company IS milking the Groton and Stonington Street Railway com pany and there is no use in beating around the bush," said Senator Ben janin H. Hewitt, of Stonington, refer ring to the Norwich and Westerly Traction company, in addressing the public utilities commission, Monday, at the hearing on the petition of Jennie r. Hewitt and A other school teachers for a reduction in the trolley rates on the line of the Groton company which was said by the senator to be sub- jected to a milking process.
 The remark of the senator was brought out by the objection that had been raised by Former Represen- tative c. l.. Avery, attorney for the company, to a question asked by the senator to show who was in control of the Groton and Stonington com pany leased by the Norwich and Wes- terly Traction company.
 Show who is, doing the milking" l" replied MT. Avery.
 The question was temporarily ex- cluded by Chairman Higgins.
 In the latter part of November the petitioners sent a petition to the in- terstate commerce commission com mission complaining that the rates on the Groton and Stonington line, which extends to the Rhode Island state line, had been increased, in some instances 100 per cent, and stating that the in- crease was unreasonable. The peti- tioners asked for relief. The interstate commerce commission replied that it had no Jurisdiction over the matter and suggested that the petitioners go to the public utilities commission. On December 16 the latter received the document and the hearing Monday was on that petition. It was claimed by counsel for the petitioners that some of the expenses of operating the Nor wfeh and Westerly company were paid out of the revenue of the Groton and Stonington company.
 President R. w Perkins of the Nor wich and Westerly Traction company stated in reply to a question from Sen ator Hewitt that the directors of the company were Morton F. Plant, F. de C. Sullivan, A. E. Locke, H. M. Verill. C.. l.. F. Robinson, R. W. Perkins and J. A. Winchester and that the directors of the Groton and Stonington company were the same with the exception that A. L. Chappell of New London and c. D. Moves. of Norwich took the place of Messrs. Winchester and Robinson.
 The objection to the granting of the petition for 8. reduction of rates was on the ground that the income of the company did not warrant it.
 By agreement the scope of the hear ing was enlarged so that there was an inquiry into the rates on other parts of the company's lines.
