PREPARE EGGS FOR MARKET
Several Excellent Little Hints That
VIII Tend Greatly to Increase
Profits From Poultry.

Provide clean, dry hay or straw OF
new the material frequently and al
ways when it becomes wet and soiled.
Collect eggs every day shortly be
fore noon, or preferably at noon and
at dusk. It is especially advisable
when hens are broody to collect
twice daily.
On no account should eggs which
have been found by chance in nests
in the open during harvest time OF
any other time be mixed with those
intended for market. Any such eggs
which are not fit for consumption
should be thrown out.
Any dirt on the egg when it is
collected should be removed by means
of dry cloth, or if that method fails
a slightly dampened, but not wet
cloth, should be used. Do not wash
hen eggs nor put them in water. nor
use any chemical to remove the dirt.
Eggs should always be kept dry
Contact with wet material or ex
posture to moisture causes them to
go bad quickly; therefore, eggs wher
taken to market should be protected
from the wet by suitable coverings.
Keep eggs in a cool, dry place away
from Objectionable odors. &C. yf
Reserve the small eggs for home
and market the best and largest.
Put clean, dry hay in the basket OF
box used for packing eggs for mar
ket, and pack carefully. ur.ir.. n..

Bethlehem Steel Will Make Of
fer TO Uncle Sam. -
BIDS ON IS INCH NAyYSHELLs
No Chance For Profit In Them Under
Present Tests. Grace Says-PossibIe
Explanation Of the Prices Made by an
English Firm Which Bids Under All
American Manufacturers.

Speaking recently before the Terra
pin Club Of Philadelphia, Eugene G.
Grace, President of the Bethlehem
Steel Company said in part:
In a peculiar sense Bethlehem Steel
serves the American people.
For example, though we have been
able to obtain in Europe almost any
price, we have adhered, in our charges
to TIE United States Government, to
the basis of prices established before
the war began. r..
We agreed-if the Government would
abandon its plans for a Federal plant
to make armor for our Navy at any
price the Government itself might con-
slider fair.
Our ordnance plants are at the dis
posal of the nation at a fair operating
cost, plus 4 small margin, thus saving
the Government investment and de-
probation. "'
The Glenwood post., 1917-02-03

Two years ago we took an order for
24OO fourteen-inch armor-piercing shells
at contract price of S76S0OO, to be
delivered within certain time or we
had to pay large penalty.
The only specifications for making
these shells are that they shall be
of certain size and must pierce
armor-plate at certain velocity on i'm
pact. 1t Is impossible to foretell the
exact conditions of the tests.
We had made large quantities Of shells
in the past which had been accepted.
But in placing this particular order the
Department altered the angle at which
the tested shells must pierce armor-
plate The result. however. has been
absolute inability on our part to pro-
duce in any quantity. shells which will
meet these novel tests. In fact, we
know Of no process of prOjectile-mak-
ing through which it is possible to pro
ducc in quantities shells which Will
conform to the requirements.
The result is that up to now on that
contract of $7GS.0o we have put into
actual operating expense $447 and
have been penaized for non-delivery
$495. .744. a total of S9I3,625., with no
receipts whatever.

One of the special needs of the new
navy is sixteen-inch guns-guns sixty
feet long and capable Of hurtling
1000 pound shell with such power and
accuracy as to hit so foot square tar
get fifteen miles away.
We have undertaken voluntarily to
construct at cost of $4,5OO,OOO,
plant fitted to build sixteen-inch guns.
Under no conceivable circumstances
can orders which we may receive for
this plant pay even fair return on
the investment.
Consderab BILE comment has been made
upon the fact that a British manufac-
turer recently bid less than American
manufacturers for sixteen and four
teen-inch shells for the navy
l am unable to state the basis upon
which the English bid was made. 1t
should be remembered. however, that
this bid was for a specific shell, sam
pies of which are being sent over for

The Glenwood post., 1917-02-03

Such was the experience in the light
Of which we were called upon recent
" to bid for siXteen-inch shells.
We bid on these shells at approxi-
mately the same rate per pound as
that Of n fourteen-inch shell contract
of one year ago upon which the Gov
ernment awarded contracts. ur
We have not the slightest idea what
profit there will be in the making Of
these shells, We dc, not know that
there will be any, There is no certain
ty that it would be possible for us to
deliver shell to meet the test. luuH.
For officers in, the, Navy to assume
that any bid made under such condi-
tions Is "exorbitant' is' utterly unfair.
IiH no Ls0up 3-I aoT.1i 4iGI
We bid on the new battle-cruisers
sums which Navy department experts,
after examination of our books, found
would yield profit of less than ten
per cent. We agreed to assume risks
for increased costs of materials and la
Dor, that made it possible that these
contracts might yield no profit what
ever.
The costs run beyond the amount ap-
propriated by Congress on the basis of
the cost estimates made aIyear ago. y
And because shipbuilders could not
alter the inexorable cost facts and re-
duce bids to early estimates Of the
Navy Department, the prices are called
"exorbitant"hiuua s8 sqHiiob tusu
It, would be real advantage to be
renewed Of this naval construction. The
proflt from 1t cannot possibly amount
to much, and the responsibility Is enor-
NOUS.

Social Circle Meets.

The Social Circle of the Christian
church met on Thursday afternoon at
the home Of Mrs. r S. Hale on Fifth
street. Mrs. r.. S. Hale and Mrs.
Della Hale entertained the ladies at
this time in their own hospitable way.
The rooms were fragrant with white
and pink spring blossoms. Dainty re-
freshments were served that were
pleasing both to the eye and the pal
ate,
Mr.. r. S. Hale being unable to be
present. left treat for the ladies
that was fully appreciated.
A business meeting was held and
opening prayer made by Mrs. w. L.
Mellinger.
A date was set for fancywork
bazaar on December t5, and the la
dies are supposed to make fancy arti-
cles for the bazaar from now until
that date-during their leisure mo-
ments, of course.
Plans were made in regard to some
improvements around the church, and
arrangements concerning the annual
dinner were also made. Each lady is
supposed to bring enough lunch to
supply as many friends as she cares
to invite to this dinner.
The following members were pres
ent at this meeting: Mesdames o..
w. Long, j. w. Haskins, r. S Hale,
C, o. Porter, c. w. Walker, J. V.

were Mrs. Faulkner, Mrs. Ed VOTERS,
Misses Mildred Walker, Margaret
Mellinger, Lorane Smith and Master
Wilbur Sanford; also w. L.. Mellin-
ger, who arrived at the eleventh hour,
looking so crestfallen because he had
missed the refreshments that the
hostesses took pity upon him. How
ever, not every hostess would be so
good-natured, and it is best not to be
late only when delays are unavoid-
able, as in this case.

Comedy at Vining
Tuesday Night

Frank Mcintyre. one of the fore.
most comedians on the stage, makes
his motion picture debut in the Fam
GUS Players adaptation of his best
known success, "The Travelling Sales
man." in which he toured the country
for three seasons. II is an interest
ing coincidence that Mr. McIntyre's
first appearance on the screen should
be made in an adaptation OF the play
in which he scored his first great sue
cess.
"The Travelling Salesman" Is the
Paramount picture at the Vinins
Theatre Tuesday night. It is re-
markable mixture OF comedy and
drama, in which this jovial comedian
is thoroughly at home, having played
in every known form Of theatrical
presentation from farce and musical
comedy to heavy drama. Mcintyre
himself has travelled as much as the
average salesman in his tours all over
the country, and he plays the part
with an understanding that gives his
performance complete reality.
The story deals with a travelling
man who finds himself in little
town on Christmas day and settles
down resignedly to have the most
awful time of his life and to die of
boredom. But before he has been
in the place ten minutes things begin
to happen to him, and before he
knows it he is deep in the mesh of a
plot to rob a girl of her home. The
action becomes fast and furious, with
the drummer falling in love with the
girl and battling for her with all his
heart and soul,
Among those in support of Mr.. Nc
Intyre are Doris Kenyon. Harry
Northrup, Julia Stuart, Russell Bas-
sett, Harry Blakemore, James O'Neill,
Jr, Harry Lee and Richard Gray.
