\ Wonderful Egg In Schuyler
County

A farmer wife in Schuyler coun-
~ has made a discovery on their
farm that is proving the sensation
of the hour. One day last week she
went out to gather up the eggs and
to her great surprise found one of
the eggs that contained figure and
some lettering on it,
Investigation proved the peculiar
marking on the egg TO have deep
significance. The 6ge was one of the
brown c0lOred eggs and the figure
on it was in white, being a fair
figure of a dove Beneath the dove
there was neatly letteled the word
Peace" and below this the word
in" and below this the word Sep
TENDER" Being put together it was
the dove of peace in September.
They used acids, soap and water
and every conceivable means to
wash off the lettering and the dove,
but they could not be removed
without breaking the egg. Some
seem to think the sign has some
Significance and some bearing on
the world war now going on.
The home where the egg was
found is situated between Lancaster
and Downing. A Lancaster produce
man took travelling man out there
in a car and that man was in Mem
phiS Tuesday. He says 1t is a won
Gerful discovery He tried to buy
the egg from the woman, and she
declined to sell. Asking her if she
would consider some fancy price
from concern in the city the wo-
man said she had no desire to sell
The Schuyler county egg, whether
il has any meaning OF significance
or not, il is the sensation of the
hour in these parts and is the topic
of conversation in many a store
where a lack of business due to high
water leaves plenty of time for Cos

Sorghum is good crop for war

II is easy to grow for either pur-
pose. Does well on soil a little too
thin for corn to make a good CROP
and the lighter soils produce bet

an abundance but not so GOOD a
quality, so says Sam Jordan in an
appeal issued by Jewell Mayes of
the Missouri State Board of Atri-
culture in the interest of more
profitable production, food conserva-
ton and food supply.
For mOlasses. the seed should be
drilled, using 3 to 5 pounds per acre
and the crop cultivated. Seeding
for molasses should be done by July

it is not fit for molasses making.
