Atlantic League Sinking;
Easton Club Passes Out

That the Atlantic League soon is to
be numbered among those already
under the sea was made evident by a
dispatch from Easton yesterday which
told of the disbandment of the team
which represented that city on the cir
cult. The directors of the club ordered
Manager Auchenbach to pay off all
players.
The directors took the action when
they learned from the president of the
league that several other clubs in the
circuit were in a bad financial con-
dition and were on the point of dis
banding.
The career of the league has been a
stormy one and beset with difficulties
from the very beginning. The first
obstacle encountered was the oppo-
sition of the PENNSYLVANIA State
League, but even after that organ
ization passed away and only was a
memory trouble still pursued the At
lantic leaguers.

FLOUR FROM DIFFERENT 49,.
GRADES OF WHEAT

Baking tests have been made of the
flour from the different kinds and
grades of wheat at the North Dakota
Experiment Station in cooperation
with the United States Department of
Agriculture. These tests cover the
years 19O7-1914. Flour from Blue
stem wheat, grade rejected, gave the
highest loaf value, 1858 c., while the
lowest, 2347 &C., was from grade No.
l. The highest color value, 97.26 per
cent, was from grade No. 3, and the
lowest, 87.77 per cent, from grade re-
jected. Of the Fife wheat, grade No.
a gave the highest loaf volume, 1850
&C., and grade rejected the lowest,
219O &C. The highest color value, 97.6l
per cent was from grade No. l, and
the lowest, 80 per cent, was from
grade rejected. Of the Velvet Chaff
grade, rejected gave the highest loaf
volume, 2540 &C., and grade No. / the
lowest, 23O9 &C. Grade No. 2 gave
the highest color value, 97.7O per cent
and grade No. the lowest, 88.17 per
cent. Of the Durum the highest loaf
volume was from grade No. 4, 2174
&C., and the lowest from Grade No. /,
2031 &C. Grade No. gave the high
est color value, 92.33 per cent, and
Grade No. 3 the lowest, $3.50 per cent.
There was no grade rejected for the
Durum.. ~
All the fours were also analysed
for protein. The highest percentage
for all the wheats was found in the
flour from grade No. 8.

OLD SUBMARINE MODEL.

The submarine model reputed to have been built in civil war times by a Fairfield county man, which is in the show windows of the hardware store of Lyon & Grumman, Bridgeport, is at- tracting great attention.
 While the internal mechanism in- tended to operate the boat is not shown in the model, the principle of lateral stability as shown by the model IS such as to be far in advance of aEy known contemporaneous inventor with the possible exception of what is termed the "New Orlesns submarine" built by the Confederates during the Civil War. So closely allied is the model and the known shape of this Confeder. ate submarine that some are inclined to believe the two may have originated with the same man.

THE SIGN WELCOME.

It is an acknowledged fact that first impressions are lasting with most people. and the importance of giving to strangers who enter our village the feeling that we are gald to have them here, and that our people are the kind they like, should not be lost sight of.
 Why not put up some signs at con- spicuoUs points on the roads entering Canaan, by which motorists may know the name of the community they are approaching? Isn't it a pleasant and hospitable idea?
 Why should the motorist, who may perhaps be lost in a drizzle, have to stop some passer. by to ask whether this is Podunk or some other dunk" not worthy of a name?

PoLIoMYELlTIs "cUREs.'

fnfantile paralysis ''cures'' are be-. coming plentiful. An expert in John Hopkins hospital says he has found that the germ is swallowed. Another man says the disease is not caused by a germ at all, but by gasoline fumes from automobiles. He says the symp- toms of infantile paralysis and of gaso. line fume asphyxiation are identical. It would be bit difficult, however, to explain by this hypothesis why so many more victims come from the dis. tricts so crowded that gasoline cars seldom penetrate their streets, and so few from districts where gasoline cars and trucks are daily experience.
 Here comes an expert, testifying be. fore the New York Academy of Medi- cine that no specific cure for poliomye- litis has been found. The adrenalin treatment has proved practically use- less, the blood serum scarcely better.
 All of this, and the other daily re. ports added to it, may be encouraging or not according to ones point of view. But the one big hopeful thing remains .--the best medical minds in the coun' try have been and still are bending their concentrated attention upon this scourge. and as fast as one makes what seems to him a useful find, ht hastens to make it public. Most of tht great discoveries will be useless. Blu none of the research will have been il vain. The exact cause, the prevention the cure, may not be found this yea or next.

EGGS-T RAVAGANCE.

No one thinks of the common hens egg as an athletic performer, but look at the high jumps it has been making and it's still at it. No item in do- mestlc economy can equal it.
 Sixty-five cents dozen for strictly fresh hand picked hen fruit, right here in the country where it is produced, with no transportation expense nor middlemen's profits, is going some. "
 In the cities it is still worse-cold storage eggs cost as much there as strictly fresh' in the country. The executive committee of the Housewives League in New York have decided to urge it's membership throughout the country, said to number 100000, to stop buying cold storage eggs until the price for them has been reduced from 60 and 75 cents to 35 cents dozen Women will be asked to buy eggs only for invalids until the price comes down. Officers of the league claim that the dealers paid 22 cents a dozen for the eggs for which they now de- mand 60 and 70 cents.
 It is suggested that some 38,0OO,0 900 dozens of eggs have been accumulated by the cold storage concerns in Chicago, causing a shortage in the available sup ply. If this is the case it is to be hoped that these speculators upon the needs of the breakfast table will overreach themselves.
 AS the matter stands now the only apparent source of relief is to be found in the increased industry of the hens, or the ambition of the young bullets just coming cn to lay.
