THE DIFFERENCE.

dubuque Telegraph HERALD
There is a difference between con-
crete bridges and the old wood cul-
verts that required repairing constant
~ly in order to make them passab BILE.
That is the difference between the old
way of building roads and the new.
The state highway commission has
made the construction Of cement
bridges and culverts possible and at less
expense. Mr.. Harding. the republican
candidate for governor. would do away
with the commission and again allow
the bridge companies to take their rob-
Der prices and the crooked members OF
boards Of supervisors their graft. Mr..
Meredith, the democratic candidate 20:
governor, would continue the commits
sion in power because he knows better
roads will be had and for less money.

ask the courtesy of your columns for
defense.
Public sentiment in Cedar Falls has
been strongly against saloons for .
good many years. At the June pri-
mary the avowed dry candidates on the
republican ticket were Senator Allen

The above vote shows clearly the
sentiment in this community.
Mr.. Harding has been In the Iowa
legislature either as a member Of the
house or presiding officer In the
senate for quite a number OF years. It
IL easy to ascertain his record. Every
ballot is recorded. Mr.. Harding has
been more consistent than the aver
age member. On every wet and dry
measure that came up for consider

throwing his influence on the same side
every time. As presiding officer OF the
senate, he appointed the committees.

EXAMINE EGGS TWICE
Simply Constructed Tester May
Be Used in Hatching Period.
Poultry Husbandr,an Of Clemson Col
iege Describes Device Made From
Ordinary Mailing Tube-Re-
move All Dead EQos.

All eggs that are incubating should
be examined twice during the hatch
ing period. The poultry husbandman
of Clc 'nson college suggests using for
this purpose an egg tester that can be
made from an ordinary mailing tube
I'm the manner he describes. He pre-
paIes a double thickness of heavy
brown paper four inches square, puts
one end of the mailing tube at the
center of the square of paper and
doubles the edges of the paper over 1t.
so as to form paper cap. lie fastens
the cap with three wrappings OF cord
and, finally, cuts a hole one inch in
diameter in the top of the cap.
The free end of this tube Is placed
at the eye and the egg to be eX-
aminod is pressed lengthwise against
the hole in the cap. Point the tester
toward the sun or bright light and
you will be able to see the contents
of the egg plainly. The cap acts as
cushion between the egg and the
end of the mailing tube and prevents
light from entering the interior of the
tube around the sides of the egg.
The first test is made at the end OF
the first week of incubation. A fertile
egg with a live germ In 1t has dark
spot (the embryo or young chick In
the upper part of the egg, with veins
radiating from It, Gently twirl the
egg and you will see the germ move.
Such an egg is to be returned to the
incubator or hen. Clear eggs Infer
tile), eggs with rings of blood lem
bryos that grew for few hours and
diedD, eggs with dark spots, but no
veins dead embryos), and clouded
eggs are to be removed and destroyed.
As an exception. the clear. infertile
eggs may be kept and boiled hard for
chick feed.
The second test is made at the
end of the second week. At this
stage. a live embryo darkens the en-
tire egg. except the air cell In the
larger end. Eggs appearing otherwise
are rejected.
One OF the chief objects In testing
eggs during incubation is to remove
the dead and decaying eggs from un-
der two hens and place all the good
eggs under one. resetting the other.
