EGGS.-J. W. Fuller says that if it
were not for the cold storage, eggs
would be so cheap during the heavy
production that the farmers would
not gather them. Well, he will have
to show me. 1 was raised in the
country and have seen eggs sold by
farmers as low as Z and 8 cents a
dozen and they gathered them then
the same as they do now. Also, I
never knew eggs to reach the price
they have lately when there was no
such thing as cold storage known.
During two extremely hot months
I was atHmy home in the country and
I did not notice any deterioration in
the egg crop. Did not know of any

Brand WhitIock- a street rail-

You'll find some of our leading cit
liens getting almighty good all of

good just when they're about to put

age their preachers to join in the

to any old reform association that

be banner year for hired reformers
in Chicago. Yes, even reformers and
legislators will hit the trail, get good
and vote the benevolent plutes any
old thing they want. On the sur
face 1917 will be the most moral
year in ChicagO's history, and at the
same time will probably witness the

like to show The Day Book readers
how to beat the high cost of eggs.
In the early fall, while eggs are
yet a reasonable price, get as many
fresh eggs as you need. Grease each
egg thoroughly and pack small end
down in salt in pals or jars. Put in
an inch of salt, a layer of eggs, a
layer of salt, etc. Keep in cool
place and you can have eggs as good
as any cold storage eggs for several
months. am using eggs now that
were only creased and set away in a
basket the middle of last September.
The eggs must be fresh, as stale ones
will not keep. A fresh egg has rough
surface to the shell, while stale one
has a smooth surface.
Another process for keeping eggs
is: Two pounds of salt boiled in one
gallon of water; pour into a jar and
when nearly COOS add tablespoons
of lime; put in eggs and keep them
covered, so they will be well covered
with the brine. viii keep one year
this way.-A. S. Cramer.

Putting One Over

The democrats in congress are try

this week that is pretty thin. They
are passing an anti-corruption bill
forbidding u candidate for president
to spend over $4,000 to secure his
own election. AS neither Hughes or
Wilson can afford any such sum the
bill amounts to nothing, but the raw
part is that it says nothing at all
about presidents wives, when it is
well known that Mrs. Wilson holds
the purse strings and is perfectly
willing to loosen up if it will help her
to spend four more years in the white
house.

Former Prowers County Official Dies

week of the death in California of his
brother, Gilbert Downer, formerly a

here for many years during the pio-

number of responsible positions,
being clerk Of the district court at
the time Of his removal from here to
accept a better position at La Junta
He lived several years at that place
being elected county treasurer. Failing
health caused him finally to move to
California in the hopes that the lower
altitude would be benificial. He
improved for awhile but it was not
long until he began to grow weaker
again, and it was as a relief from
bodily pain that he heard the call of
the grim reaper. All the early resi-
dents of the valley knew and respected

friends all along the line who sin
