SCOUT PROGRAM IN WAR.

Prof. Norman +. Richardson Of Bos-
ton university tells the Boy Scouts Of
America that the war In European ma
lions has resulted In a rapid increase
OF juvenile delinquency. Information
that has been carefully secured goes to
show that this Increase In II of the
larger cities and towns of Great Brit
ain during one year averaged "a per
cent. The causes OF this unfortunate
condition are In many instances SINH
lar to forces that have already begun
TO operate In America. Ii Is impera-
tive that the American people take
time by the forelock In this matter
by setting In motion Immediately In
fiuences that will counterfeit a number
Of injurious forces which will play
upon the lives OF our boys during the
coming months and possibly years.
A careful study Of the causes of I'm
creased delinquency and of the suita-
bllity OF the Boy Scout program to re-
duce the harm coming from these In
fiuences presents a powerful argument
for the immediate enlistment of thou
sands OF Americas best citizens as
scoutmasters.

ABUNDANT SUPPLY OF LITTER
Clean Straw Should Be Provided for
Winter use-Renew at Least
Twice Monthly.

An abundant supply Of deep litter.
preferably clean straw. should be pro-
vided for winter use, renewing the
covering Of all floors at least twice a
month. This is the hens punching
bag or gymnastic equipment to insure
winter health and vigor. Fortunately
straw is cheap this year, and 1t should
be used freely. as II is great COM
fort to the hens in more ways than
one. Be sure there is something In 1t
worth digging for at least half or two
thirds Of each day. The active hen
easily turns her feed into eggs. while
the overfed. inactive hen is unprofit-
able as well rs her scantily fed sister.

The hen that molts late In the sea-
son is the one that has been busy I'LL
ing the egg basket She is the one
that ought TO be kept In the breeding
flock and from which eggs for hatch
Ing should be selected next spring. The
hen that molts early In the fall or the
late summer Is the Stacker and the one
that should go 10 market. This re-
verses the policy that many have been
following. the poor layer often being
thoughtlessly chosen because she looks
better than the worker.

EGGS FOR HOME USE
Water GIass Solution Is Recon-
mended as Best Plan.
Standard Grade Can Be Obtained at
Drug Stores for rs Cents per GAL
Ion-piIute With Water
Boiled and Cooled.

prepared Specially by the United States
Agriculture)
In the spring. when they are plenti-
full. eggs may be preserved for home
use in a solution OF water glass, so
that those laid during the fall and win
ter season may be available for mar
keting. A standard grade Of water
glass can be obtained at drug stores
for 70 cents per gallon, IL bought In
moderately large quantities. Each
quart of water glass should be diluted
with ten quarts of water which has
been boiled and cooled. Only strictly
fresh. newly laid. clean eggs should be
placed In the solution. The eggs may
be packed In stone jars or crooks
which have been washed thoroughly
In scaldlng water and the water-glass
solution poured over them, or the eggs
may be placed daily In the solution by
putting them down In II carefully by
hand so as to avoid breaking or crack
ing them. The solution at all times
should cover the eggs TO depth Of at
least two inches. The solution will not
lnjure the hands. The jars should be
put in a cool and preferably dark
place before the eggs are deposited In
them, and should not be moved. be-
cause breakage and loss may result.
The water-glass solution may become
cloudy, but this is natural condition
and should cause no alarm.
Eggs thus kept are good for all pur-
poses, but the shells break rather cas-
lily In boiling. This trouble can be
prevented by puncturing the end of the
shell with a pin or needle just before
boiling. Perhaps an occasional GUS
toner will be willing to buy eggs pre-
served in water glass, but they should
be sold for just what they are and at
a price mutually agreed upon by the
producer and customer.

NEwssoYs TAKE UP SCOUTING.

Newsboys Of Houston. Tex, many Of
whom are good scouts" already. are
going to align themselves with the Boy
Scouts Of America.
Some of them have been thinking of
the proposition for some time, and af-
ter the purposes, plans and benefits of
the work OF the boy scouts had been
outlined to them In detail by the
local scout executive a large number
Of the boys enrolled for the work.
The newsboys are enthusiastic over
the opportunity TO enter 1t.
The scout officials expressed the
opinion that they have some excellent
material to work upon, especially after
they had seen the grit manifested by
the boys In a number of boxing match
es and wrestling bouts. which were put
on for the entertainment Of the guests.

CORRUGATED BOXES FOR SHIPPING EGGS.

Eggs IN parcels weighing more than
20 pounds shall be accepted for mall
ing to offices In the first and second
zones when packed in crates, boxes.
buckets. or other containers having
tight bottoms to prevent the escape of
anything from the packages and so
constructed as properly to protect the
contents. Such packages to be marked
"Eggs-Thls side up" and to be trans
ported outside Of mail bags.
Ideal Container Is Simple.
The ideal container must be simple
in construction, efficient In service, and
cheap. Simplicity of construction is
essential, so that II may be assembled
and packed or filled readily and rap
idly. Any part which Is to be opened
should be so marked or notched as to
indicate the part to pull up or out. It
must be efficient In service to insure
satisfaction to the shipper and to the
receiver, and also to prevent damage
to other mail matter by possible break
age and leakage. II must be inexpen-
sive or 1t will defeat the object to be
attained, which is a reduction Of the
cost of handling between producer and
consumer.
Trials Of many different styles and
makes Of containers or cartons for
shipping eggs by parcel post were
made. Quite a number proved salts
factory In extended trials. A few Of
them are illustrated In these pages for
the purpose of showing in a general
way their appearance and construc-
ton. Any container which meets the
postal requirements and which serves
the purpose properly can be used.
The experiment stations in the vari-
ious states have information as to con-
tanners for parcel post shipments Of
eggs In consumer-size lots, and persons
desiring information Of this kind
should not address the United States
department of agriculture, but should
address the director of the experiment
station In their own states.

SCOUT TO BE PRESIDENT
Conducted by National Council Of the Bo
Scouts OF America

welcome any movement which will
Intensity young mans attachment to
his chur n and religion. says Dr. :. II.
Gordon Of Tulsa, Okla.
The boy scout movement only brings
the boy In closer touch with the
church. The government now wants
men TO go to the front and fight. II
wants and needs good, clean, strong
men.
At the close Of this awful world CON
fllct there will be greater need for
good men than now. When this war Is
over. there will be confusion. dlssatls-
faction. unrest, anarchy. high taxes.
high cost OF living and demoraliza-
ton. Sorrow. mourning and distress
will prevail.
Under such conditions the nation
will need strong. educated, religious
men as leaders. And the boy scout
movement Is going to provide such
leaders. The boy scouts are prepar-
Ing themselves. not to fight, not to
shed blood. but to be wise leaders.
and to conduct the people out of the
wilderness of greed supremacy and
worldllness, into the Canaan OF peace,
prosperity and happiness.
Some boy scout is going to be the
president OF the United States. Some
scouts are going TO be governors. Some
will be senators and others will occu-
by high official positions Of trust and
honor.
SO we want the boys 10 stick to their
school and their church and thereby
fit themselves to be men who will be
qualified to rule wisely under the most
trying circumstances.

Experience has shown that frequent
ly parcels are mailed in containers not
sufficiently strong and inadequately
prepared and protected. These are a
cause OF complaint. While the con-
tainers often can be secured more cas-
lily by the consumer, the producer
should make II point to secure,
through his local dealer or otherwise,
such containers or carriers as meet
the requirements of the postal author
tiles and such as will carry the partic-
ular product In a satisfactory manner,
so that he may have uniformity In
them when he is shipping to a num-
Der Of customers. Uniform contain
ers and uniform pack are economical
and desirable; otherwise he may lose
his customer, and should the contain
er or carrier not be sufficiently stout
to stand the service II will not be
worth returning assan empty" to use

Postal Requirements
Inc pOstdi requirements Ior mdlllng
eggs for local delivery are as follows !:
Eggs shall be accepted for local de-
livery when so packed In a basket or
other container as to prevent damage
to other mail matter.
This embraces all collection and de-
livery service within the jurisdiction
Of the postmaster of the Office where
the parcel is mailed.
Eggs to be sent beyond the local Of
fee are to be prepared for mailing as
follows:
Eggs shall be accepted for mailing
regardless Of distance when each egg
is wrapped separately and surrounded
with excelsior. cotton, or other suit
able material and packed in a strong
container made of double-faced CORFU
gated pasteboard, metal, wood, or 9TH

that nothing can escape from the pack
