CAN you think of any more accept

wears out it's clothes so quickly and
outgrows them as fast, and it is
comfort for the neat mother to have
large wardrobe for her little one.
When you plan making presents to a
mother, don't er1broider pincushion,
or decorate laundry bag, or add to

some pretty little garment for your

hastens decay.
S. Dry pick if possible. Scalding
is particularly undesirable because it
hastens decay.
6. Chill every dressed bird until the
body temperature is below IS degrees
F. Never pack or ship an imperfectly
chilled bird. More decay is due to
imperfect chilling than to any other
single factor in dressing. Dry chill, if
possible. Chickens cooled in water
lose flavor, decay sooner, will not cold
store as satisfactorily as dry-chilled,
and are in every way more undesirable
on the market. Refrigerator cars will
carry wellchilled goods in good con-
dition, but they cannot chill warm
goods to a sufficiently low tempera-
ture.
Z. Pack in boxes or small kegs when
ever possible. A large barrel makes
an undesirable package, because where
poultry is packed in large masses the
weight Of the upper layers crushes
the birds at the bottom.
8. Line all packages with parchment
paper and cover the top of the poultry
before the lid is put on.
9. Wrap every head in suitable pa-
per so that blood from one bird will
not mar the appearance of another.
' TO- Use only good refrigerator cars
and see that they are in good order.
Ice and salt the car "a hours before
loading. The car, at the end of "a
hours should show a temperature be-
low 40 degrees F. at point four feet
above the floor and between the doors.
General Suggestions.
Never handle chickens roughly,
either before or after killing. Rough
handling causes bruises, broken bones,
SCARED skins, and soft places in the
flesh. Undue haste on the part of the
killers and pickers results in lowered
keeping quality and poor appearance
Of the product.
fecework, which leads to quantity
\~ther than quality, makes for lower
pA1ces on the market. Those who pay
by the piece should remember that
they sell by the quality of the piece.

equal force to turkeys intended for the
J. market.

coNsTITUTIoNALITY OF OREGON
 LABOR LAW CONTESTED
Limiting Hours in Manufacturing Es-
 tabIishments to Ten a Day.

Washington, June 6-The contest over the constitutionaIfty or the Ore gon statute of 1918 limiting hours of labor for men in manufacturing estab- lishments to ten hours day, present ed to the Supreme Court one of the most delicate questions 1t had been called upon to consider in twenty years.
 A series of decisions in previous years had upheld the validity of legis- Tation limiting the hours of labor on public works, whether conducted by the government or by private enter prises. In 1898, the Supreme Court uIleld the validity of a. state statute one enacted by the state of Utah limiting the hours of labor of men in underground mines, in smelters and in ore reduction works. The decision danger to health arising from condi- tions under which those occupations lay. Another step was taken in 1908, when the Supreme Court upheld the validity of the Oregon statute limiting the hours of labor of women in me chanical establishments, factories and laundries to ten hors in any one day.
 On the other hand, the Supreme Court had annulled in 1905 the New York statute limiting the hours of labor of men in bakeries to ten hours a dal The decision was based on a
  no reasonable relation between ten l hour day for bakers and the public welfare.
 The attention of the court was moi
 called to any other state having a law
 restricting, Sle hours of labor of men ] in as wide a range of occupations. The court was informed that the hours o1 | labor of men in mines has been limited by the law in Alaska, Arizona, Cali l fornia, Colorado. Idaho, Missouri, Mon- | tana, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon 1 Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, Wy oming and Maryland. It was told that 1 other states have placed Limitations
 on the hourse of labor in smelters, re- | duction works electric-light plants

 cement mills, plate glass works, roll | ing mills, tunnels, irrigation works

The Italians are Holding the Austrians -Russians Claim to Have RepuIsed Turkish Attacks and to Have Sue eessfuIIy Raided Persian Border.

From the Pripet river southward to the Rumanian frontier the Russians, according to the Petrograd statement, are continuing to develop successes against the Germans and Austrians. In the fights along this front of some 250 miles the Russians have already made prisoners of 480 officers and more than 25,000 men and captured 27 guns and more than 50 machine guns.
 Russians Have Plenty of Munitions.
 In this offensive, which is declared to be carefully coordinated move ment the Russians are said to have a plentiful supply of ammunition and men, and with the roads now in good condition their manouvres are expect ed to develop swiftly. The number of Teutons facing the Russians is report ed to aggregate about 60,000 men.
 Comparatively Quiet Around Verdun.
 Since the repulse of two German in- fantry attacks between Fort Vaux and Damloup Monday night, the fighting in the Verdun region has again developed into an artillery duel, with the fort Vauz, Damloup sector, the center of the greatest violence. No material gains for either side are reported.
