Egg Prices May Go Up,
Dealers Predict; Other
Produce Is Plentiful

Presence of spectators only. in the
markets tomorrow, will force a rise
in the price of eggs. This was the
general belief of local dealers to-day.
They would not predict probable
prices.
Eggs could pe had in stores to-day
as low as "a cents a dozen. Few
asked 40 cents. The average price for
fresh eggs was 3S cents a dozen Far
mers who do a Friday business in the
city sold eggs at So cents. They claim
there is a scarcity of eggs due to the
fact that at this time of the year hens
are not producing eggs in large guam
titles
Many Harrisburgers are buying
eggs in nearby towns and country.
The price quoted this morning in
Perry county and within a radius of
II miles of Harrisburg was 80 cents
a dozen. This in the opinion of one
dealer would mean not less than SO
cents dozen in the local markets to-
morrow, according to predictions to-
day, providing spectators were held
on. 1t has been a custom for some =
time for spectators to get to markets
early and buy up the eggs.
Other produce is expected to be low
in prices. Vegetables are very plen-
tiful and there will be an abundance
of lettuce, red beets, beans. peas. cab
bage, carrots, radishes. onions and po-
tatoes. Watermelons and canteloupes,
reached Harrisburg to-day in large
quantities. Huckleberries were plen-
tiful to-day and indications are they
will be selling at low prices to-mor-
row. To-day they sold for Is cents a
box.

Stringent Measures May
SaUe Russia Despite
UnfaUorable Conditions

Despite all the unfaVorable news
that still continues TO come from the
Russian war theater. there are occa-
sional signs of an Improvement in
the situation. Last nights Petro-
grad newspapers, for instance, found
cause to report a somewhat better
situation at the front, probably as
the result of the drastic measures to
restore discipline which the govern
ment has authorized in the re-estab-
hshment of field courts martial and
the reimposition of the death penalty.
Similar stringent measure in Petro-
grad also appear TO have proved
effective in dealing with the dis
orderly elements. Reports of a re-
newed fighting in the capital are ac-
ccmpanied by the statement that
government troops stepped into the
situation with salutary effect, sup
pressing the rioting completely.
Meanwhile the entente front else
where is giving renewed evidences of
its solidarity. not only in a military
but political way. The allied con-
ference at Paris, which was believed
to have been chiefly devoted to Bal
kan affairs, adjourned its sessions
with a renewed declaration of uniteI
purpose on the part of the entente
powers not to lay down their arms
until the central powers had been put
in position where they would not
ind it possible again to pursue a
policy of criminal aggression.

County Farm Bulletin
Gives Canning Recipes
For Preserving Corn

In the weekly bulletin issued by
the Dauphin County Farm Bureau di-
rections are given for the canning of
corn both on the cob and in grains
as cut from the ear. The receipt
for the canning of corn on the ear is
said to be not only late idea but
The bulletin follows: With the new
crop of sweet and sugar corn coming
on the market. and doubtless a great
demand for methods of canning and
drying this corn for winter use, the
Farm Bureau takes this opportunity
to suggest a simple but effective
means by which the two common
vegetables, corn and beans, may be
preserved for the winter.
Sweet corn may be canned either
on or cut from the cob. In a year
like the present. however. canning
corn on the cob is hardly economical.
Corn on the cob. Can the same
day as picked. Remove husks. silk
and grade for size. Blanch on the
cob in boiling water five to twelve
minutes. Plunge quickly in cold
water. Pack ears. alternating butts
and tips in half gallon glass jars.
Pour on boiling water and add two
level teaspoons of salt to each gallon.
PLACE rubbers and tops in position.
Seal partially but not tightly. Ster-
lize in hot water bath outfit $50 min
utes. This water bath may consist
or any vessel such as a wash boiler
large can or any other similar
vessel. Remove the jar. Tighten
covers.
Sweet corn cut from cob. After
removing husks and silk, blanching
and cooling. cut the corn from the
cob with a thin sharp bladed knife.
Pack in jar easily until full. Add
one level teaspoon of salt to each
quart and sufficient hot water to
fill; Place rubbers and tops in po-
sition as stated above.
TO can lima or string beans, Gull
string and grade. Blanch in boiling
water two to five minutes. Remove
and plunge quickly in cold water
Pack in jar until full. Add one tea
spoon of salt to each quart. Add
enough boiling water to fill the crew
ices. Place rubbers and tops in po-
sitlon as in previous examples.

Why You Should
Never Pare a Corn

II you are troubled with corns or
calluses, do not run the risk of blood
poison by pairing them. Statistics
show that many deaths have occurred
from this seemingly innocent practice
of pairing corns.
Simply go TO your druggist and get
a few cents worth of Ice-Mint, rub a
little on any painful corn or callus.
Immediately the pain will disappear
and in a short time the corn or callus
will loosen and lift off easily with the
fingers-root and all-leaving the sur
rounding skin in a healthy. normal
condition.
This. together with the fact that
Ice Mint overcomes such affections as
sore, tired. aching, puffed or burning
feet and makes them cool, easy and
comfortable. is probably responsible
for the hearty endorsement given 1t
by druggists
To rid ones feet of every hard corn,
soft corn, corn between the toes or
painful calluses in such a pleasant and
safe way, makes II seem the height
of folly for anyone to pare a corn. and
people are warned to stop it.-Adver-
tisement
