GOV. SLEEPER WARNS PUBLIC
Issues Proclamation Calling on citi-
zens to Observe Laws.

Lansing, Mich.-Governor Sleeper
Michigan. While some of the offenses
committed by enemies of the govern
ment have been of such character that
local citizens have taken the law into
their own hands, the governor begs
them to remember that Michigan has
courts to punish the guilty.
II feel II my duty, as governor OF
Michigan, to warn the people of the
state against the tendency to take the
law into their own hands, because of
certain conditions IN their community
life," declared Governor Sleeper in q
proclamation issued a few ago.
cit is no time for mob rule to super.
cede the Jurisdiction Of regularly con.
stituted authority. I fully appreciate
conditions which have aroused some
people to an opinion that they can only
accomplish the desired results by TAX
There are courts and laws in the land
and citizens must allow them to handle
matters affecting the peace and dig
nifty of this state and nation rather
than to attempt snap judgment. We
must all exercise patience and remem-
Der that unless, in our practice, we
follow the methods Of government
which we claim to be so dear to us,
other peoples can hardly have the re.
spect for us and our institutions which
they should have.
IF any citizen believes he has cause
to complain of the conduct OF any
other citizen, or inhabitant of his To-
cality, the matter should at once be re-
ported to the authorities, and left for
them to deal with. call upon all of
our people to make this time Of stress
a period of careful law observance.
The authorities of each community
and county must see to 1t that peace
and good order prevail, and that the
laws OF the state are upheld"
Copies Of this proclamation have
been mailed to the prosecuting attor-
neys and sheriffs Of the various coun-
ties and to local police chiefs in the
various municipalities. While the gov.
ernor does not want any guilty person
to escape punishment, he wants Of
tenders dealt with by constituted
authority.

which, while combining the hen, will
allow the chicks to pass in and out
freely after they are few days old,
will be satisfactory. The hen should
weaned, though small yard may be
attached to the coop, If desired, to al
low the hen to exercise. The fence
can be raised from the ground far
enough to allow the chicks to go in
or out, but not high enough for the
hen to escape. BY using a coop the
chicks can find shelter and warmth
under the hen at any time and the
weaklings, after few days, may de-
velop into strong, healthy chicks.

PRODUCING EGGS IN SUMMER
Better Methods Of Caring for Eggs
and Proper Packing Would Reduce
Needless LorT,

Losses in eggs during the summer
months fall directly upon the farmers.
Dealers know that an average of Is to
IS per cent Of eggs marketed during
the summer Is either total or par
tial loss; hence prices, they say, are
based upon good eggs only.
Better methods of caring for the
eggs and better packing before they
are shipped would reduce this unnec-
essary loss.
A few definite rules for the pre-
vention of loss in summer eggs are
formulated by the poultry division at
the Pennsylvania State college: ~
Produce sterile or infertile eggs. (2)
Keep eggs in a cool, dry place. (3)
Have clean nests and plenty Of them.
az Do not keep tho eggs near kerosene
or decaying vegetables. They absorb
odors readily. 90 Market the eggs fire.
quently. Holding does not improve
quality.

Thls Feature 10 Particularly Notable
In Street Dresses-Afternoon
Froeks In Two Materials.

Trimness and simplicity are particu-
larry notable in street dresses, says
the Dry Goods Economist. Although
afternoon dresses may be cut on sim.
liar lines, there Is decided tendency
toward the use Of two materials, silk
crepe and satin, crepe and serge. ETC.,
and there is a great amount Of drapery
and plaits in evidence.
Richness Of effect Is added to many
dresses by the use of a satin body
lining under crepe, in contrasting or
self color.
Loose panels and plated panels, In
varied lengths, predominant in street
dresses and there is a preponderance
Of the turnover collar extending to the
waistline.
The regulation round or square col
lar also continues to be popular. A
new coat-dress shows a standing col
lar, the dress fastening on the side to
the waistline.

STRICT STANDARD FOR EGGS

(By c. 8. ANDERSON, Colorado Agricul-

The day of Standardization in the
egg market is here. When eggs sold
for a cent apiece, the claim ian egg
II an egg" was accepted. With our
present increased prices, the con-
sumner naturally is asking for great
or quality and higher standardization
In the products he buys.
A number of our best markets are
now demanding that eggs shall weigh
at least "a ounces per dozen. They
must stand a Gambling test, be clean,
uniform In size, shape and color Of
shell.
When rigid standards are well es-
tablished the producer Of first-class
fresh eggs will receive premium
and will no longer have his prices
governed by the ungraded, poorly
handled product.
