PRESERVING EGGS

During the spring aad early sum
mer, when eggs are abundant and
reasonable in price, attention should
be given 10 preserving them for win
ter use, Fresh eggs properly pre-
served may be kept for 10 Y months
in excellent condition and used with
good results
4. satisfactory results are 70 be OBJ
tanned, the eggs should be fresh and
clean and. II possible, infertile. Eggs
that float when placed in the solution
are not fresh and, therefore, can not
be preserved. When an egg is only
slightly soiled a cloth dampened with
vinegar can be used to remove such
stains. Under no circumstances
should badly soiled eggs be used for
preserving; if put into the jar while
dirty, they will spoil and washing re-
moves a protective coating which has
tens spelling. The poultry specialists
OF the Extension Service Of the Uni
versity OF Vermont and State Agricul-
tural College suggest the following
methods of preserving eggs:
Water glass Method
A good method for the preservation
OF eggs is the use of sodium silicate,
or water glass. If the price of sodium
silicate is about 30 cents quart, eggs
may be preserved at cost OF approx
imately two cents dozen. 1t is not
desirable to use the waterglass solu-
ton a second time.
Use one quart Of sodium silicate to
nine quarts Of water that has been
boiled and cooled. Place the mixture
in a five gallon crock or jar. This
will be sufficient to preserve Is dozen
eggs and will serve as a guide for the
quantity needed to preserve larger
numbers Of eggs.
Lime Method
When water-glass can not be OBJ
tanned, the following method may be
used in its stead. Many consider this
method entirely satisfactory, though
instances are known where eggs so
preserved have tasted slightly OF lime.
Dissolve two or three pounds of un-
Stacked line in five gallons OF water
that has previously been boiled and
allowed to cool, and allow the mixture
to stand until the lime settles and the
liquid is clear. Place, clean, fresh
eggs in clean earthenware crock or
jar and pour the clear limewater into
/ the vessel until the eggs are covered.
At least two inches Of the solution
should cover the top layer of eggs.
Sometimes a pound of salt is Used with
the lime, but experience has shown
that in general the lime without the
salt is more satisfactory.

Lieut. F'rye's sister lives at 452 Riv ers1de Drive, the address which was given by the War Department, but his home is in Ohio, where he, has a mother and another sister. In a let ter received from him a short time ago he said that he was in an English training school and. it is not known here whether he was killed there or had beeen sent to the front. The notification sent by the War Depart ment stated that the young officer was killed July g. He cabled his family July T, saying that he was "doing fine."
 Word has been received that the adopted son of Gushing Stetson, founder of the American Defense So- ciety, was one of the first Americans killed in the last German drive. The boys name was Eugene Wallace. A message sent to his foster father at 629 West 18th street by Major Gen. Barnett of the Marine Corps, said: Accept my heartfelt sympathy in your great loss. Your adopted son hobly gave his life in the service of his country"
 Young Wallace had served in the navy, but later joined the Marines and He had been in action at Verdun and other points, but had never been in jured. He was 19 years old.

BENITO JUAREZ.

The first among Mexican presidents in patriotism and devotion to his coun- try was Benito Pablo Juarez, after whom the Mexican city opposite Ell Paso was named. Among the self seeking generals and politicians who have sought to use the Mexican presi- dency for. the satisfaction of their own selfish ends, Juarez stands out as a man who was, if not the Washing ton at least the Lincoln of his coun- try He was of full Indian blood, but obtained good education, and be- came a lawyer. While governor of his native state of Oaxaca he made a reputation for honesty and ability which caused his banishment by the infamous Santa Ana. He returned to Mexico in 1855 and became chief justice When Comonfort was over thrown by the church and military party, Juarez became legal president, and after a war of several years he defeated the unconstitutionalists and was elected president by congress. The intervention of Napoleon III, who put Maximilian on the throne, brought on another war, but Juarez triumphed in 1867 and was reelected president in 1871, holding the office until his death, which occurred Az years ago today, July IS, 1872.

AIRPLANE USES.
 TO AID INFANTRY
 BEING EXTENDED

Behind British Lines in France, July 18-(Correspondence of The As sociated Press-The uses of the air planes as an auxiliary to infantry in action are being continually extended. It is the opinion of military leaders here that the need for more and more machines and trained men is shown by the success of the low-hying air planes in operating against the Ger mans during the past two months.
 On the western front, this spring two factors-German recklessness of life and the success of the Allies in holding back the German airmen- gave the opportunity of developing On a large scale this method of harrass- ing attack.
 The success of the low-flying air planes Is of two kinds,-the slaughter they inflict, and secondly, the disor- ganization they cause. This second factor is of more importance than most people realize. An unexpected | check to troops on march Is always troublesome. Men wonder what has happened. Suddenly bombs begin to fall, men are killed, horses stampede, wagons are smashed and the road | blocked. Until the Allied airplanes are seen, the terror is mysterious. | When they are seen, with the irrises- tible implication that the German planes have failed to drive them off, the psychological effect is very severe.
 The work of the British airmen re- ceied a reluctant tribute in a recent issue of the Berlin Vorwaerts, which was captured in a raid on the German trenches. The German newspaper, in an article full of apparently sincere Never before have the English thrown their airmen in such great masses behind our front as they are doing in their present retreat"
 But the higher command of the British air force is by no means satis- fled. A high official pointed out to The Associated Press correspondent in discussing this phase of airwork, that "never before was the need of the air force for trained men and finished material so urgent as it is today" He added; Tt has been said loosely that the Allies are masters of the air and have achieved supremacy in flying. But the aerial situation is too fluid to justify such words. As a cold fact, complete mastery of the air could only come if there were no German ma chimes able to take the air.
 Superiority is another matter, and 1t is true that at the moment this may be claimed by the Allies. For exam pie, the British record of bombs drop ped in April shows twelve to one against the Germans. The present superiority can be maintained and must be maintained, not only on gen. era grounds. but particularly for the development of the new tactics of the low-flying airplane.
 What is needed is more machines and more trained men, and it is the people, the men and women of the Allied countries, who in the last analysis must give or withhold effec- tive superiority in the air

TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY.

The first model city" for workmen was formally opened forty-four years ago today on the Shaftsbury Park es- tate, near Wandsworth, London, S. w. This was the first attempt to provide ideal cottages for laborers artisans and clerks and to relieve the congestion prevailing in the crowded tenement districts of the worlds me- tropolis. The Earl of Shaftsbury was largely instrumental in the forma- fion of the Artisans 'Laborers' and General Dwellings Co.,, which pro- noted the enterprise. The scheme was very successful and estates were purchased in the vicinity of num- Der of British industrial centers. The problems of congestion, despite the slight relief afforded by such "model cities" continue to be acute, and are now receiving serious consideration by the sociological experts of all big cities of Europe and America.

Afraid of the People?

The Springfield Republican, which sincerely desires the ratification of the Federal prohibition amendment, speaks words of truth and soberness. Why do the friends of that amend ment, or too many of them, shrink from consulting the will of the peo- pie? They have seven years to sue ceed or fail in. And here is the weighty consideration which they should ponder:
 It would be inconTparably strength ening to the prohibition cause and particularly to the governmental agen- cies required later on to enforce the law in case prohibition should be en- acted, if 1t were demonstrated in an important eastern state like Massa- chusetts, that the amendment really had a tangible popular majority in fa- vor of it. There is no danger that the amendment may be placed in the
