Save the EGGS this Summer.

Fifteen million dollars worth of
eggs are lost in 2his country each year,
due to fertile eggs starting to incubate
when subjected to summer tempera-
tures," says A. G. Peters, extension
poultry husbsndman at Iowa State COL
lege. AS soon as the Matching season
is over, the ROSTERS should be sepsra-
ted from the hens and marketed in or
der that the hens may produce infer
tile eggs. II is wasteful and unneces-
sary to allow the roosters to run with
the flock after the Matching season.
It will also be economy to preserve
eggs now for winter use. Clean, fresh
eggs may be kept well if put in solu.
ton Of one part water glass to nine
parts water. The water should be boil
ed and cooled and then the water glass
added. Pack the eggs to within about
two inches Of the top of crock or
large glass jar. Fill the jar with the
solution and keep in q cool place. A
large plate may be put on the eggs to
keep them two inches below. the sur
face of the solution. Fifteen dozen
eggs can be preserved in a five gallon
crock and ten quarts of solution will be
required.
To keep eggs in lime water, place
three pounds of unslscked lime in five
gallons Of water which has previously
been boiled. If hydrated lime is used,
best results are obtained if the mix
ture is we'll stirred several times dur
ing the day before using. After the
lime settles, use the clear liquid the
same rs the water glass solution. When
eggs have heen preserved by either of
these methods and are to be boiled,
put q pin hole in the large end of the
eggs to present them from cracking.

ANSWER TO AN INQUIRY.
Dubuque connercial Club Endorses
New Packing Plant.

Dubuque, Iowa, May "a, 1918.
Mr.. E. E. Clock, Secretary
Hampton Commercial Association,
Hampton, Iowa. :.
Dear Mr.. Clock: In reply to yours
of May 23rd relative to the Corn Belt
Packing Co, am pleased to say that
we are thoroughly conversant with the
Corn Belt Packing Co., and can see nc
reason why an investment in their
stock should not be most profitable
buy. Since their organization we have
been closely in touch with everything
they have done and we can unhesitat-
ingly say that they are most reliable.
are well advanced in equipping their
most modern plant in the city to Du-
buqus sad have enough AbusiRess~ lin
sight to run them to capacity for two
years to come. As for its manage
ment, their President, Mr.. A. B. Nc
Cue, is undoubtedly one of the most
capable men in the business. He has
spent seventeen years in various de-
partments of the Swift & Co. plants
and is thoroughly familiar with oper-
ating large packing houses. As man,
I can say, Mr.. McCue is one Of the
most estimable gentlemen ever knew
and would stake my all on anything
he might say. Mr.. McCue is surround
ed by an excellent set of officers and
board of directors and there is no rea-
son why the Corn Belt Packing Co.
should not rapidly develop into one of
the largest and most efficient packing
plants west Of Chicago.
/ believe you appreciate that in my
position ultra-conservatism must pre-
dominate in giving an expression Of
this kind. With this thought ever be-
fore me, unhesitatingly say to you
that the time is not far off when those
holding stock of the Corn Belt Packing
Co. will be considered most fortunate
individuals. g.
If can serve you further, please
call on me.
Yours very truly,
Dubuque Commercial Club,
Paul Rankin,
Executive Secretary.

Loyalty Appeal by Archbishop.

Archbishop Keane addressed the
priests of the Archdiocese assembled
in retreat at Dubuque College. His
Grace announced the policy of the
Archdiocese, as that of the whole Church
in the United States, to be one of un-
swerving loyalty to the administration
and acknowledging cooperation with
every movement inaugurated by the
government for the successful prosecu.
ton of the war. He exhorted the pas
tors to become, each one in bis locality
. self appointed agent to carry out
every measure of the government for
the conservation of food. ~a t-'
The Archbishop urged the pastors Of
all congregations where foreign lang
uages have been used to act in the
spirit of Governor Hsrding's proclaim
alton by restricting the use of such
languages to cases of real necessity.
He encouraged the practice already
widely established of singing church
hymns only in English.
He paid q cordial compliment to the
clergy of the Archdiocese, representing
as it does many different nationalities,
for their splendid devotion to the coun-
try's welfare and urged upon them the
highest ideals of patriotism as the law
of their thought and action in the ma
tons present emergency. He insisted
upon compliance with all governmental
measures as an obligation in conscience
binding every citizen of the United
States regardless of his station or ORR
gin.-Telegraph- Herald.

Iowa and War Savings Stamp Sales.

Iowa and War Savings Stamp Sales.
AS I result of the War Savings
stamp drive which closed Friday, June
%, National War Savings Day, Iowa
will come very close to reaching her
quota Of $48, 600. 900.
The drive put 48 counties either over
the top or 20 close to the goal that
their chairmen report they will have no
difficulty in reaching the mark within
the next few days. e.
These counties, added to the thirty
eight that were over the TOP. before the
present drive started, leave bat thir-
teen counties in the state where it is
not thought possible to raise the quota
in the immediate future.
The fact that many of the counties
that have reported their quotas raised
have gone over with margins ranging
from three to eighteen per cent above
their quotas will do much toward help
ing out the weaker counties and bring
ing the state nearer it's goal.
Counties in the eastern and south
ern part of the state seem to be hav-
ing the greatest difficulty in reaching
their quotas. Polk and Woodbury., the
largest counties in the state, failed to
reach the mark on the date set.
County chairmen are making only
partial reports to state headquarters
now and it will be perhaps q week be-
fore complete returns are available.
Iowa led all other states of the
Union in the sales of War Savings
stamps during the month of May, &C
cording to q Treasury department re-
port just published. Sales in Iowa
during the month we're $6,O23. 633. 81.
Nebraska and the District of Columbia
were in second and third place.
AS result of the remarkable record
made in May. the state jumps from
ninth to third place in total sales.
Since the campaign was started last
December, Iowans have purchased Sl2.

the draft registration, while every eff

Stamp purchase pledges.
Assigned to command heavy artiI-
lery of the Belgians at Antwerp and
Lorraine, Major K. B. Ferguson of the
British Heavy Artillery, pictures Wv
idly a terrific assault made by the
Germans on these two Belgian strong
holds in 1914. which forced these for
titled towns to capitulate.
Major Ferguson has been in the Brit
ish Army for eighteen years and since
August, 1915, has been an officer OF
the British Heavy Artillery and a por-
ton of the time on staff duty. He was
invaded last November with trench
fever and was sent to this country
short time ago to tell the American
people just what war is from the view
point of heavy artillery. He indicates
how really unprepared England was
when the war began, and how rapidly
it has developed one of the most es-
sential pieces of machinery of war in
the heavy artillery which he now pro-
nounces as the best in the world. He
declares that there is no doubt of the
superiority of the allied artillery now
and that it will be constantly main
tanned
Predicts Continued Success
The present continued success of the
allies in France is an indication Of this
superiority of fire. Major Ferguson
believes that there will be no stop now
one that the allied forces have CO.
ordinated their staff work and placed
1t under one general head OF such an
experienced general as General Foche.
The great trouble in the early stages
of the war. according to Major Fergu-
son, was lack of staff experience. The
British did not have it, the Russians
did not have it, and America has not
yet OF it, but the French and Germans
did have it, and Great Britain has
learned it, and America is learning it.
Major Ferguson does not discredit the
fighting ability of this nations army
and says that it is a lamenta5le fact
that once the fighting ability was dis
credited by the Canadians and Ameri-
cans, and that they will have to be
taught that at the beginning of this
war Germany had superior soldiers be-
cause of the superior training. He
believes now that the allied soldiers not
only equal in training, but are far
superior in initiative and self-reliance
and that there can be no doubt of the
German propaganda which no doubt
will soon begin in an effort to split the
allies, the French from the British,
the British from the Italians, and
Americans from their allies.
Major Ferguson will speak this eve
ming Of the intimate knowledge of the
war gained during four years in the
trenches and artillery stations back Of
the lines.
