Metal Tent Supports.

Those fond of camping out will be
glad to hear of a new contrivance con-
sisting of a combined tent frame and
cot, which dispenses with cumbersome
poles and simplifies the question of
how to move ones sleeping accommo-
dalton from place to place. The new
tent supports are of light angle iron,
and the longer pieces as well as those
forming the cots which go with each
tent are jointed so that they may be
folded up when necessary. The frames
of the cots are suspended from the up
rights by two coil springs, used for
the same purpose as springs in the Or
binary house-bed. During the day the
cots can be folded up against the tent
frame and well out of the road, by
releasing one Of the springs at each
end.

RUMANlANs AND RUSSIANS ARE

Berlin Claiming Important Victory
Over Russians-Character Brit

Lonoon.-In the face OF continued
violent attacks by Won Mackensen
leading the Teutonic allies in Do
brudja, from the Danube to the Black
sea, Rumanians and Russians are
falling back.
Toprat Sari and Cobadin have been
taken by the combined Austrian, Ger.
man, Bulgarian and Turkish forces.
On the Pennsylvania front, hard
but indecisive fighting continues in
the mountain passes. Petrograd says
The Rumanians have been forced back
in the Bureau valley. Bucharest, how
sver, does not concede this, asserting
that Teutonic counterattacks were re-
pulsed at the point of the bayonet.
The battle of the last week along
the Narayuka river in Galicia has re
suited in an important victory for the
Austro-German forces over Russians.
according to Berlin. Here the Rus
slams now hold only small part OF
the front on the west bank of the
river, after a general attack by the
Teutonic allies between Syitelniki and
Skomoyochy. Petrograd says, how
ever, that the fighting is still going
on and that the positions have chang
ed hands several times.
Twice during Sunday-in the morn

positions newly won by the French in
the Chaulnes wood, south of the
Somme Both attacks were repulsed,
according to Paris. Some of the at
tackers in the morning offensive
gained a foothold in the French first
line, but were surrounded, and the 15O
survivors were made prisoner.
Berlin, in admitting that in Satur
days fighting the British north of the
Somme made gains, characterizes the
British losses as a reckless sacrifice
of human lives" Several trenches
between Branches and Lamoisonette,
south of the Somme, were recaptured
Saturday from the French, says Ber-

AMERICAS STORE OF GOLD.
Foreign Nations Send Wealth Here
for Safekeeping.

New York-Shipments of gold tc
the United States since the beginning
of the European war, in conjunction
with the domestic production, brought
the total of gold in the country from
1885,, 270,6 on August 1, 1914, to
$3.50, OO9,56 on October 1, 1916, the
gain in the amount in the twenty-six
months period being s74S,739, 904, &C
cording to a compilation announced
here.
The amount of gold imported dur
ing the war, it is pointed out, is
greater than that for the full decade
preceding the war, and the imports for
June, 1916, were greater than in any
full year prior to the war, with the
single exception of 1908. The gold in
the United States is now double that
of 1904 and 40 per cent more than at
the beginning of the war, it is said.

Charges Based Upon His Decision 10
Leave His Capital for ouaretaro,
and Fact That His Wife Has
Left Mexico.

Washington.-Charges that General
Carranza is preparing to leave Mex
leo are being freely made by his po-
litical opponents in Mexico City. They
are based upon his decision to leave
his capital for Quaretaro, and the fact
that Mrs. Carranza has crossed the
border into the United States, accom-
panied by her husbands war minister
and chief supporter, General Obregon.
Information to this effect is reach
ing officials here from various reliable
sources. So far nothing tangible
tending to support the story has come
through official channels. 1t is known,
however, that many officials here be
lieVe General Carranza has committed
a political blunder at least if he is
not in fact preparing for fight by per-
hitting his family to leave Mexico
just at this time The trip, they say,
was certain to be construed by his
followers as a confession of weak
ness.
General Venustiano Carranza has
no intention of quitting Mexico City
and his wife expects to join him
there next month, she said on her
arrival at San Antonio from Mexico
City. Asked concerning press reports
that General Carranza might abdicate
bis position as first chief OF the Mex
lean constitutionalists, Mrs. Carranza
shook her head emphatically and said
she had nothing to say whatever on
that subject.

Cardui Wins Suit.

After a trial in the United States
District Court of Chicago, before Judge
Carpenter and a federal jury, the jury
found the American Medical Associa-
ton guilty of libeling Cardui, the wom-

as a "nostrum."
This is a vindication of the medicine
and a proof that it has merit, which
was recognized by a jury after trial
of three months, one of the longest
civil cases on record.
Many doctors and chemists testified
on both sides and the evidence tOtaled

The little boy knew Teddy was a

finally consented to make the pur.

TO DETERMINE FRESH EGGS
One Can Generally Tell by Color, Pro-
vided 1t Is Not Too OId-Water
Test Is Favored.

How do you tell when an egg is
fresh? How do you determine that an
egg is stale?
One can generally tell by the color
of an egg when it is fresh, provided it
Is not more than two or three days
old. The shell of fresh egg is clear,
bright and is not easily mistaken for
a stale egg. Nevertheless this is not
an infallible guide.
Eggs kept in water glass for some
time will stay at the bottom when
immersed in water. Eggs from ten to
fourteen days old kept in a room at
temperature of about 65 degrees, when
immersed in pail of water, will turn
on end and begin to rise to the top.
AS the age of the egg increases it will
rise in water more readily. If kept in
a cool place it is said that nearly
month will elapse before the egg will
rise to the top in water.
When an egg is held to the light, If
it is old or stale an air-space can be
seen in it. The air-space increases
as the egg gets older. This is called
Gambling and it is the surest way of
determining whether or not eggs are
fresh.
If stale egg is shaken it's contents
will run together and a sound can be
heard. Eggs once frozen when they
thaw out will shake so the sound can
be heard.
Whether an egg was laid the same
day to be eaten can be determined if it
is boiled hard. In this case the skin will
adhere to the shell. 1t will not peel
easily. Perhaps this test would hold
for an egg boiled the same way day
after it was laid.-Arizona Experiment
Station.

CLEAN OUT DROPPlNGS DAILY
Some Sort of Material Under Perches
Is Necessary-Sawdust Quickly
Absorbs Moisture.

The modern dropping board" ne
cessitates the use of some sort of ma
terial under the perches so that the
task of removing the droppings may
be accomplished more easily and quick
ly, says writer in an exchange.
Different poultry men use different
materials. Some sprinkle a thin lay
er of sand or earth under the
perches, while others use hay, chaff,
leaves, sawdust or other such SUBJ
stances. Sawdust is about the best
material that can be used when it can
be obtained in sufficiently large guam
titles without difficulty. My expert
ence has shown that this material
quickly absorbs all moisture from the
manure, and it is not chilling to the
feet of the fowls, while by its use, it
ls an easy matter to save the drop
pings to use for fertilizing, as sawdust
mixes well with the manures.
No matter what material Is used,
1t, together with the accumulated
droppings, should be swept out with
broom every few mornings. When
sawdust is used it is advisable to
sprinkle 1t with water before sweep
ing, in order to settle the dust, which,
otherwise, will be found obnoxious
to the person doing the sweeping.
How often to clean out around the
roost is a question that can be de-
cisively answered by saying that the
most successful poultry men clean
out the most frequently. Many lead
Ing poultry farmers attend to this
every day. Maybe this is a little
oftener than necessary, but it is play
ing on the safe side

COOP FOR THE BROODY HENS
Large Dry Goods Box With Sides and
Bottom Slated Will Prove Quite
Satisfactory.

You can take large dry goods box,
knock off the sides and the bottom, and
then use Stats to tack on the sides and
bottom in order to admit plenty of ven
tilation. The birds stand on the bot
tom and the fever cools more rapidly.
The box should have supports about
three feet in length.
The birds should be taken from, the
nest as soon as they have the broody
fever. This enables you to break them
from sitting more rapidly, and when
turned from the coop they will begin
laying much earlier. This will also
prevent many eggs from being spoiled.
The hens should be fed when con-
fined in the coop so as to keep them
In laying condition.
