Raw Eggs Keep Longer Than Boiled.

Raw eggs Keep good much longer
than cooked eggs. even when these are
hard boiled. This was proved by DR.
Leon Lindct, member of the Paris
COnSeil d'Iygiene. after many French
soldiers had reported that the hard
boiled eggs they received from home
had gone bad, while the raw eggs re-
manned edible for weeks. Doctor Lin
Diet explains this fact by saying that
the boiling makes the inner mem

MONTANA-B|NGHAM
PROPERTY !: PRAISED
MESSAGES From Mainland Tell Of
Visits To Property and 4.
r What Was Found

Favorable news on The Montana.
Bingham Const idcted Mining Com
pany, of which SOL 900 bonds are held
in this territory and stocks equal to
that amount at par value, has come to
JorGen JOrgensen this week in two
cables from the mainland. One was
received Tuesday and the other yester-
day. The latter message is more in de-
tail than the former as to recent de-
velopments and their Importance.
On Tuesday Mar. JOrgensen received
the following cable;
"You people don t realize what you
have. California parties after examin-
ing the Montana Bingham properties
offered to exchange bonds at fifty cents
for stock ut fifty cents. Higgins paid
in March 81, 900 on account of For
tuna option. The Fortuna purchase
100000 more to the value of Montana
Bingham. Conger is building a mill
near the Portal tunnel and shipping ore
from the Valentine 200 level. The
company is unwilling TO make exchange
of bonds for stocks at less than sixty
cents for the stocks"
While the above message may SAVIOR
of the 1" boost 1" type the other messag
is more to the point. 1t says:
Engineer Earl of the u s. Smelling
Company at Salt Lake City, together
with other prominent engineers and in
company with Aessrs. Morris and lIig-
gins have just returned from the For
tuna properties. Two per cent and up
grade of copper ore is now blocked out
completely at the 1000 lovel-where the
new strike was made. This block will
aggregate over 100000 tons and of the
estimated value Of $2SO,O00 net. Earl
resigned his former position in order to
personally undertake the blocking out
of the FOrtupa ground. He says there
is million tons of more than two per
cent ore exposed in the mine. Pro.
fessor Weed on his second trip reports
from three to three and half million
tons of ore indicated. Weed is the
best geologist employed by the govern.
ment. :"

SODIUM NITRATE CAUSE
OF SOIL DETERIORATION

w. p Kelly, formerly chemist at
the Hawaii experiment station and now
chemist of the citrus experiment sta
ton in California, in recent report
states that there is a well defined ply
steal deterioration in soils to which
repeated dressings of nitrate of soda
are applied. There is also rapid loss
of soil calcium, and an unusually high
content of sodium MS compared with
other elements in the drainage waters
from such soils.
Kelly states that sodium nitrate re-
acts with the lime carbonate in the
soil to form small amounts of sodium
carbonate. This agrees with the sug-
gestiOns Of p. S. Burgess of the plant
er's experiment station that the ala
haina disease of cane is due to this
reaction.
Studies of nitrifcation in California
soils are said to show the favorable in
fluence of manure aud leguminous
cover crops and only q slight effect Of
inorganic fertilizers on nitrifcation.
- The results of studies on the move
ment of nitrates in the soils are taken
to indicate that nitrates are naturally
formed in cultivated zones to the great
est extent, and that where cover crops
and manure are plowed down the pOr-
osity of the soil permits more uniform
diffusion and movement Of nitrates into
the substrata.

LOUISIANA CROP YET
MENACED BY DROUGHT

Reporting on the Louisiana cane
crop, The Louisiana Planter of June 2
says: go
"Clear skies still dominate the
weather situation in sugar Louisiana,
and they are beginning to become a
crop affliction Of serious dimensions.
"AnOthcr million dollars or so seems
bbout to be added to the incalculable
sums that have been lost to the Louis.
lana sugar producers through veTnal
d:oughts, and this with water, water,
everywhere in our great Mississippi and
our innumerable bayous, that could,
through the installation of properly
constructed irrigation systems, be put
on the thirsty crop.
Tho temperatures have become sea.
sonnbly high, aud the young cane is re.
sisting the untoward dry weather re-
markably well, probably because of
better cultivation and fertilization than
has sometimes been given it in past
years when the financial shoe pinched
harder than it does this year, but never
thciess, rain must come soon or large
loss will be suffered. -
