EGGS AND BEANS

If you do not think there is a dir
ect connection between eggs and
beans, just read the following and
draw your own conclusion. Our good
friend and neighbor, Val. NJ. Toups,
had forty hens. One day the forty
hens laid SO eggs, that is, thirty-six
of the hens were guilty of the pro-
dution of the three dozen eggs, the
other four laying off on that partic-
ula.c day. Val's good wife exchanged
the three dozen eggs with a neighbor
for one gallon of pink beans, which
they planted. After gathering their
crop of beans from the gallon plant
ed, 200 pounds e sold for s2S,
about 2 pounds remaining over for
their own use. Val also informs us
that from three gallons Of white
beans planted, he harvested 600
pounds when shelled. "The high cost
Of living does not alarm a good
working man who lives on a farm"

Mississippi newspapers report a
Mississippi Supreme Court decision
of interest to manufacturers. BY the
published account, it appears that
L. T. S~paraggibs, a sawmill owner
in Adams County, was accidentally
killed by q falling log while scaling
logs on a flat car. He carried an &C
cident policy which the company re-
fused to pay. It's contention was that
the insured had given his occupation
on applying for the policy as "ofice
mar and general manager" and
that the policy did not insure him
against accident suffered while
working as log scaler. Suit was
brought by the widow for the
amount Of the policy, and q jury in
the lower court awarded her $1,000.
This verdict was affirmed by the Su-
preme court in its recent decision.
