$2,5OO,OOO EGG LOSS

From a quarter to half of the eggs
laid in the middle west during the
summer time are a total loss amount
ing to $2,500,000 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 Expert
ment 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 inside the shell.
The principal remedy then is reas-
onably low temperature and marketing
the eggs at least once week. They
should be gathered every day and put
in a cool, clean, sweet cellar or some
similar cool place as quickly as pos
sible. 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 spring or
sprnighouse, or lowered in a bucket
into well just as butter often is

DOMESTIC SCIENCE
EXHIBIT AT M. U,

Everything from iron pokers to
hand embroidered silk waists was ex-
hibited at the University of Missouri
last week to show the useful and beau
tiful work of the summer session stu
dents in the domestic science, art and
manual arts classes. The pokers to-
gether with tongs, shovels and other
iron pieces represented work of the
class in forging while the silk waist
with specimens of fine needlework,
silk dresses and oil paintings, designs
and drawings, the work of the art and
sewing classes.
Pieces of machine work, desk sets,
watch fobs and tobacco jars of ham
mered brass were the contributions of
the class in metal work. The class in
furniture sent nut crackers, boxes in
laid with rosewood and ivory, piano
benches, chairs, writing desks, a tel
ephone table inlaid with ivory, ebony
and rosewood; and the class in cook
ing, jellies, preserves, candy, cakes
and cream puffs.
A particularly interesting exhibit
was the miniature village from the in
termediate department, with church,
bank, postoffice, general merchandise
store, circus of all kinds of animals
and a picture show where Mary Pick
ford will appear in the Eternal
Grind" showing how model town
should be arranged.
There was also scheme worked out
by the advanced handwork class to
illustrate the evolution of transporta-
tion by land and water. From riding
the logs and the raft it showed the
steps to the steamship and submarine,
and from the papoose and drag the
steps to the automobile and aeroplane.
To complete the exhibition were the
carefully made maps and the Pied
Piper of Hamelin, with all his train
cut out of paper of the advanced
handwork class.

ACCEPTS DEFEAT GRACEFULLY

Henry county, who held fourth place
in the contest for the Democratic NOM

ton, shows him to be a large-cali-
bered, big hearted and generous man
who would have honored the position

cause they believed l would be un-

fort to elect the entire State ticket and

Mr.. Lindsey received the following

graduating Col. Frederick d. Card

COOL DRINKS FOR HOT DAYS

"a lemon day keeps hot weather
at bay"
Syrup is the best sweetening.
Fruit juices make the best drinks.
Orange and pineapple juice added
to rich lemonade improve it for some
people.
Half a cup of lemon juice, six table,
spoons of syrup and three cupfuls of
cold water make good lemonade.
Currant jelly dissolved in either hot
or cold water makes an excellent
drink. So do many other jellies.
Chilled blackberry or raspberry
juice diluted to taste and served with
or without slice of lemon touches
the spot.
Fruit lemonade is made by adding
small pieces of sliced pineapple,
orange, muskmelon, cherries, and a
sprig of mint leaves.
Use the lemon squeezer on oranges
just as ON lemons and pour juice on
finely cracked. artificial ice. This is
an especially healthful drink but like
other iced drinks, should be swallowed
slowly.
Grind can of sliced pineapple in a
small sausage grinder and mix it
with two gallons of water. The sliced
pineapple is better than that which is
already grated. so the best results are
obtained by buying the sliced article
and using the food chopper.
Lemon egg nog is good food as
well as a drink. Make it by beating
an egg yolk until it is lemon colored
and thick. Then add teaspoonful Of
sugar gradually and follow this with
the stiffiy beaten white of the egg.
Add tablespoonful of lemon juice
and serve while cold.
Almost all these drinks may be
sweetened better and more economi-
cally with syrup than with sugar be-
cause it dissolves more completely
and is not wasted by settling at the
bottom of the cup and being thrown
out. Make it by adding a cup Of SUI
gar to a cup of water, stirring until
the sugar is dissolved and then boil
ing slowly for ten minutes without
stirring. Cool the syrup and put it in
bottle or fruit jar until wanted for
use.-Carrie Pancoast, Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture.

TO MAKE APPLE JELLY "JELL"

1t is just about as easy to make jel-
ly from apples, ounces, peaches, or
pears as from any other kind of fruit,
if you know how, according to Miss
Addie d. Root of the Missouri Col
lege of Agriculture, All that is nee
essary is to add enough tartaric or
citric acid to the juice to make taste
about as sour as a good sour apple.
This usually means about level tea
spoonful to a quart of juice. 1t de-
stroys the delicate flavor of peach and
pear juice somewhat but improves the
flavor of sweet apple and ounce
juice.
Blackberries, blueberries, raspber-
ries, partially ripe grapes, crap ap-
pies, sour apples, and plums usually
make good jelly because they have
enough acid already and also contain
substance called pectin which must
be present and must be brought out
with the juice by heating if jelly is
to be made. That is why jelly-mak-
ers do not simply press out the juice
from cold fruit. All apples and SIM
liar fruits have enough pectin for jel-
ly making purposes.
In making apple jelly, cover the
fruit with water before cooking and
boil twenty or thirty minutes. After
boiling has continued ten or fifteen
minutes, add about three quarters of
a cup of sugar for every cup of juice
The sugar that will be required should
have been measured into a pan and
warmed in the oven for awhile before
it is added. 1t should be carefully
stirred in to prevent burning.
AS soon as the glasses are filled
with the hot jelly they should be set
in cool place while jelling takes
place. They should be sealed from
the air but if the jelly has been slight
ly over cooked, it may be covered with
panes of glass and allowed to harden
in the sun. When it is well set, pour
hot paraffin over the top and put
clean tin covers on the glasses. Store
them away in dry, cool place where
the jelly cannot mold.

A BETTER oAT CROP
FOR NEXT YEAR

Was your oat crop satisfactory this
wear? Or was it so poor that you are
thinking of not planting it again The
oat crop has yielded so little in the
past few years in Missouri that farm
ers in the State are beginning to aban-
don it's cultivation. But the place of
oats as a food for horses and young
stock and as factor in rotation is
still important enough to justify its
production IN the opinion of the Ex-
pertinent Station of the College of Ag-
riculture of the University of Missou-
ri.
The factors which determine the
profitable growing of oats in this
State, says bulletin, Factors In
iuencing the Yield of Goats" are the
use of the best adapted varieties, fan
ming of seed to prevent running out,
better preparation of ground, drilling
instead of broadcasting, early seeding
and the prevention of the smut by the
formalin treatment.
The best varieties are: White-Si-
berian, Wide Awake, Silvermine,
Great Dakota; Black-Jeanette, Mar
tinsburg, Nichols, Black Comet, Vic
tor; Red-Texas Red Rust Proof; Yel-
low-Kherson.
A better yield is gotten from heavy
seeds, and these may be obtained from
the home grown varieties by tanning
them heavily, saving only the large,
plump grains for seed.
In preparing the ground, since oats
generally follow corn, good double
disking is sufficient, especially if the
seed is then put in with the disk drill
instead of broadcasting and harrow
ing.
The time of seeding should be early
in the season because the oat plant
makes it's best growth and stools best
during cool, moist weather The rate
of seeding is also important. 1t va
ries with the soil and size of the seed
but ten pecks per acre is usually rec
commended.
Smut and rust are two greatest en-
emies of oats. Smut may be success
fully controlled by the formalin treat
ment, and the Texas Red Rust Proof
variety has so far proven itself the
| best check for rust.

can be used to advantage in destroying
the germs.
The time required for the cholera
infection to die out on large fields
and pastures will vary with the condi-
tions of weather and soil, and expos
ure to sun, as we'll as the degree of
infection. Under the most favorable
conditions, large fields that have be-
come infected will probably not be en-
tirely safe for susceptible hogs under
80 to 100 days, though cases are re-
ported where infected fields were ap-
parently free from the infection in
much less time. Every possible eff
fort should be made to prevent large
fields and pastures from becoming in
fected with cholera germs.-J. W.
Connaway, University of Missouri.
