HIGH EGG PRICES
NOT UNREASONABLE
Advance In Cost of Who'll
Grain Must Be Met.
MASH MIXTURES CHEAPEST
Poutrymen Of the State Must Meet
Changed Conditions.

College Park, Md, June 21.-Al
though egg prices are nearly doubls
what they were a year ago, the cost
of grain feeds has advanced even more
and poultrymen are facing failure un-
less cheaper feeds can be made use Of
Poultryman Roy H. Waite, of the
Maryland Agricultural Experiment Sta.
ton, in a circular to the poultrykeep-
ers of the State, calls attention to the
change in price levels and urges the
adoption of mash feeding Mr. Waite
says:
In June, 1914, eggs were 10 cents a
dozen, according to the quotations OF
q Baltimore commission man. In June
1917, they We're quoted at Sc cents a
dozen, an advance of 80 per cent. since
the war began.
This is the part the consumer sees,
and he is all too prone TO judge that
he is being held up by the poultry rails
ers, packers, or middlemen. He does
not come in contact with the increased
cost of feed.
"In June, 1914. a Baltimore whole
sale feed dealer quoted wheat at S1G7
per bushel In June, 1917, he quotes
wheat at S2.7O per bushel, 1852 per
cent. increase. Long ago the poultry
raisers who keep books gave Us the
use OF whole wheat as a feed for poul-
try.
In june 1914, corn was quoted at
50 cents a bushel In June, 1917, it is
quoted at $191 a bushel, ia per cent.
advance. Where does the poultry
raiser get his profit with his 80 per
cent. increase in the price of eggs
There is only one thing for him to do.
He cannot boost the price of eggs,
and he cannot bring down the price of
corn and wheat; the only thing he can
do is TO substitute p cheaper ration, if
he can find one Just at present there
seems 10 be an avenue of escape from
the excessive high cost of feeds in the
use Of mill by-products.
Bran, in June, 1914, sold at $40
per bushel In June, 1917, it is quoted
Al Sis, an advance Of 81 per cent.
Middlings in June, 1914, were quoted
at $1.49. In June, 1917, they are
quoted at $2,45, an advance of IS per
cent These two products are the best
part Of the wheat for feeding purposes,
and by making extensive use of them
poultrymen can replace their wheat
and still get a feed that will help bring
down their total cost somewhere near
a place where they can make a normal
profit
Meat scrap, a poultry feed which
in normal times is much the most ex-
pensive, has only advanced about 40
per cent If one will combine bran,
middlings, and beef scrap into mash
and feed it literally, along with corn
as scratch feed, he will get a ration
that has advanced about So per cent.
since 1914, or approximately the same
advance as eggs"

The DEATH RECORD.
c. B. KING.

c. B. King, "a years old, of Blaine,
died on the Western Maryland passenger
train Saturday evening while on his way
to the Allegany Hospital at Cumber-
land, from pneumonia. His body was
removed from the train to the Butler
morgue where it was prepared for
burial and taken to his late home at
Blaine. His wife and five children sur
vive.
HELEN WHITE.
Into the home Of Albert and Bertha
White there came, on the seventeenth
of March, 1910, dear little baby girl
who was called Helen Madaline. Bright
and winsome, she became the JOY Of
their hearts and the delight of their
friends to whom she gave the open
frankness of perfect confidence. The
years brought growth in the attractive
ness Of spirit which was hers and dreams
of what should be done to fit her for the
deserved place in life were made and
talked over many times. These dear
dreams are coming true but in another
school from that in which they We're
expected because there came the sud.
den illness, the days of anxious care,
and on the morning of June 16, the pro
motion to the class that is instructed
by the Master Himself. In the glory
of the flowers she had loved she was
ushered out by service in the Baptist
church of Loeb Lynn Of which Paul
Flanagan, Pastor of the Methodist
church of Mt. Lake Park was in charge.
Brothers Jones, Hanleiter and Wright
also had share in this voicing of the
sympathy and love of the community.
Playmates sang and bore the flower
laden form to which they were giving
this last ministry of affection. Brother
MARQUES, former Pastor. with his
wife had been present with the other
friends thru nights and DAYS of mingled
hope and fear. Now there is peace and
the tlower-like Virginia Ruth is doubly
treasured in the home where Helen had
shared the love of devoted parents.
