Next winter eggs will be scarce
and due to the increased cost of pro-
auction and the depletion of our
poultry f1ocks. the price is bound to
reach an even higher mark than last
year. In the spring of the year dur
ing April. May and June. eggs are
plentiful. and the retail price reaches
its lowest level. The housewife
should take advantage of this low
priced spring market, and plan to
preserve enough eggs to carry her
through the winter months. when the
price Of fresh eggs is often pro-
hibitive. A family of two will need
tc preserve at least so dozen eggs for
winter use. The cheapest, simplest,
and most satisfactory method of pre-
serving eggs at home is by the use of
water glass solution.
Water Glass Solution.
Commercial water glass solution
(soluable sodium silicate) can be OBJ
tanned from most any drug store, and
should be of full strength. Eggs
preserved in water glass solution can
be successfully kept for over nine
months and may be used for any
purpose. If. however the eggs are
boiled. it will be necessary to pune
ture the air cell end (the big end) to
allow for the escape of the expanded
air: otherwise the eggs are likely TO
crack. Eggs that have been in the
water glass solution should be
rinsed before using.
Eggs to Use.
Eggs should be ppt down in the
months of April, May and June,
when their quality is the highest and
their price the lowest. Use only
strictly fresh, infertile egs. Do not
preserve dirty eggs, nor eggs that
have been washed. Dirty eggs will
become tainted in favor and washed
eggs may not keep. Washing is like

LET JOY BE UNCONFINED!

The Sparks circus will reach here
July 9th in its march about the coun-
try, and it's proprietOrs bid patrons
come to it's monumental entertainment
with expectations keyed to the highest
possible point. Even then, they are
sure the most vivid imagination will
be startled and the most sanguine hope
OutdOne.
The big amusement institution comes
eager to prove once more that it is one
of the greatest of it's kind, country and
era.
1t comes with the proud realization
that all this season its thrOngs OF
patrons, limited in number only to its
seating capacity-that itself bigger
than ever before i'll its history-have
invariably united in one grand, swell
ing chorus of vocferOus praise and
rapt wonder.
Soon after daybreak, Saturday, July
%. the long railroad trains which are
required to transport the circus will
have reached this city. All arrange
ments have been completed for their
umdelayed progress into the railroad
yards and for the speedy emptying Of
the flat, stock and sleeping cars. The
boss canvasman and his horde of
brawny followers will reach the show
grounds first and Immediately the
work of creating the canvas city of a
day will begin.
The street parade is scheduled to
leave the show grounds at ten O'Clock
in the morning. There is promised a
stunningly grand and glorious pa
seantric prelude to the performance on
the show grounds. In bewildering
array will be viewed gorgeous military
legiOns; massive, splendidly ornate
chariOts, floats, vans and tableau
wagons; celebrated bands and novel
musical equipages hoTdes of the
| worlds most famous clowns and jest
ers; fierce wild beasts in open dens
with their daring trainers; droves OF
| richly decked elephants and camels
wardrobes and trappings that repre-
sent a fortune.
When the circus opens its gates al
one o'clock in the afternoon to receive
the human parade Of patrons, tbs
crowds who stop to commend and OBJ
serve in the menagerie tent will find
dens of rare and curious beasts ar
ranged in great ellipse.
It's just as impossible to crowd the
circus performance into a single story
| as it is to sit in any Of the five thou
! sand odd seats that look down upon
the big arena and take in every feature
of the two hours performance.

HOLD LIKE
STONE WALL
Stop Enemy Rush, Infiicting
Huge Losses and Taking
Large Number of
Prisoners

With the Americans in the Cham
payne, July 1S.-Not in inch has been
yielded before the German drive by
the American units holding the line
east of Rheims.
Forming the Allied right flank, they
stood like a stone wall against the
great enemy rush, infiicttng huge
losses on the Germans and taking
large numbers of prisoners.
Heaviest Bon,bardment Attempted.
Following a bombardmeEt OF gas
and high explosives, which adjoining
French units declared was heavier
than any ever attempted at Verdun.
the masses of gray-clad German infan-
try swept forward to the assault.
American field guns, firing low over
the heads Of our men in advanced po-
sftions, tore great gaps in the close
packed ranks OF the enemy.
The machine gunners and fffiemen
withheld their fire until they could
literally follow the famous revolution
airy order: Don't shoot until you see
the whites OF their eyes," Then, at a
signal, they cut loose with such tor
nado of steel that the foremost waves
of Boche infantry were torn to shreds.
The Germans wavered, tried to re-
form their ranks, and finally fed,
leaving the field caEpeted with gray
bodies.
Time and again the Boches returned
to the attack. dOggedly trying to
sweep over the American front lines
and carry the rise which formed our
support position. And time and again
their waves broke and receded ON the
defense of the Americans, for all the
world like the waves of the sea bat
tering at a rock-bound coast.

SEARS-ROEBUCK co.
MUST CHANGE METHODS
False Representation and Price Jugg-
ling Ordered Stopped

Legitimate dealers everywhere will
be pleased to read of the action taken
Monday by the Federal Trade Commits
sion against the Sears-R oebuck CO. for
unfair dealing and misrepresentation
And on the other hand, it should be a
lesson on the part of the buying public
that the home merchant is not the
profiteer that he is painted and that In
addition to his help in the community
as a taxpayer he is giving his every
customer a square deal.
The information concerning the I'M
fair dealings of the -Roebuck Co.
is contained in a Washington dispatch
announced Monday by the commission
who orders the said company to cease
their unfair dealing The charges
against them are:
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements of sugar for sale where
in it is falsely represented that because
of large purchasing power and quick
moving stock the company is able to sell
sugar at a lower price than it's cOmpeti-
tors
Selling or offering to sell sugar below
cost, through catalogues circulated
throughout the country.
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements representing that, its
competitors do not deal fairly, honestly
and justly with their customers.
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements offering it's teas for
sale in which advertisements it is
falsely stated that the company sends
a special representative to Japan, who
personally goes into the tea gardens of
that country and personally supervises
the picking of the tea.
Circulating catalogues containing
advertisements offering coffee for sale in
which it is falsely stated that the COM
pany purchases all of it's cOffees di-
rectly from the best plantations in the
world.
1T was admitted" says the commits
sion that the company has offered
sugar for sale at 3 to 4 cents pound
through advertisements in catalogues
i'm which it was represented that Sears
ROebuck & Co, because of its ability to
make large purchases and move its
stock quickly, was able to sell sugar
at lower price than others could ;
that such advertisements were false
and misleading, as the company sold
such sugar at less than cost in all cases.
and the offer to sell was limited TO a
definite quantity of sugar, and was al
ways made upon the condition that
certain other groceries be purchased at
the same time, and that a sufficient
price was received to give a profit on
the combined sale.
1t was admitted that during the
latter half Of 1915 Sears-Roebuck &
Co. sold sugar to such IN extent that
-ssaA eco was received fer it, the sales
befIfg masie at less of Sa3s, zee, all Of

which profit was made. 1t was adj
mitted also, that advertisements were
circulated by the company in which it
was intimated that competitors were
charging more than a fair price Tor
