with their prisoner, Luxburg was
registered and searched as an ordin-
airy police prisoner, and the police
took from him his two revolvers.
cartridges and 10000 pesos.
Luxburg was then sent to. the
Island of Martin Garcia. It was an
nounced that he would be permitted
to sail for Europe as soon as ar
rangements had been made. At the
camp he enjoyed less liberty than the
informed German sailors. The Island
of Martin Garcia is considered a ma
tional fortress. The guard there
was increased by $50 men on the day
Count Luxburg arrived there.
Soon after his internment, Luxburg
attempted to obtain his release by
writ Of habeas corpus on the ground
that he was unconstitutionally de-
tanned as a political prisoner The
application was overruled by a fed
eral judge. Luxburg or his friends
then appealed to the Federal bench.
There is law in the Argentine
Republic, which is still in force. pro-
viding that the President, without
legal process of any kind, can expel
from the country any foreign subject
whom he believes to be undesirable.
Under this law the President could
have sent Luxburg out of the country
without his action being legally cues
toned. However, as a courtesy to
the Foreign Minister, who had been
handling the Luxburg affair, he per-
rnitted the order for Luxburg's de-
tention to be made by the Minister of
Foreign Affairs.

Drug Stores Use Many Eggs.

THE farmer Is missing a market
for his eggs by overlooking the drug
store" says Farm and Fireside. the
national farm paper published at
Springfield. Ohio.
THE drug store represents a splen-
Gid chance to work up a direct-to-the-
consumer trade. One New England
poultryman started supplying the
leading drug store in a city of 10000.
His farm. carrying several hundred
layers. was in an adjoining town on
a car line. He produced infertile eggs.
Through the publicity the drug
store gave him. opportunities by the
score came to him to sell direct. Now
a large portion of his production the
year round is sold at retail prices.
Numerous customers come to his farm
to buy eggs for invalids.
I'm the spring he does a large bust
ness in eggs by the case for water
CHASING, obtaining for his infertile
eggs a premium of 3 to 5 cents a
dozen. Institutions are good custom
ers. He caters to this trade, believ-
ing there is going to be tremendous
increase in the use Of water glass.
"a drug store is one of the best
customers a poultry keeper can have
declared this man. Besides yielding
an additional profit, this trade makes
a reputation for you quicker than a
large amount Of self-lnspired paid ad-
vertising.'"
