Eight Cloverland men left Chica-

present 10 Western grazers the posi-

place for sheep and cattle raising. Six
OF these men are representatives OF

Select location that has natural

Infertile Eggs
Keep Best

The greatest loss in preserved eggs
comes from the fact that fertile eggs
are preserved, according to c. s. An
dersOn of the Colorado Agricultural
college. Fertile eggs will keep equally
as well as infertile eggs, providing at
no time they have been brought to a
degree Of heat where the germ starts
to develop. In holding fertile eggs for
preserving, they should not be allowed
to get above so degrees Fahrenheit.
During the early spring months this Is
easily done. but in warmer weather
pOultrymen should take the precaution
and produce infertile eggs. Fertiliza-
ton Is not an incentive to egg produc-
ton among domestic fowls. and the
number of eggs produced will be In no
way diminished.
The fertile eggs contain no germ to
be developed, withstand more heat,
are slow to decay, and can be preserv-
ed with the minimum amount Of loss.

Expert Explains How Coal
Should Be Selected to Get
Best Results From Furnace

Some valuable suggestions for select
ing. storing and using coal in house
heating equipment are offered by Will
liam ii. Reid, chief smoke inspector Of
the city of Chicago. According to a
ruling Of the United States fuel ad.
ministratiOn domestic consumers who
burned hard coal last winter may or
der two-thirds as much coal of this
grade as they used last year. A one
third deficit must be made up of btu.
minOus or soft coal from the mines of
Illinois. Indiana and small part Of
Kentucky.
Anthracite COAL on account Of re-
quiring less attention. has always been
considered the ideal coal for house
heating purposes" said Mr.. Reid. "A
round fire pot can be filed and left
alone for from IL to Is hours. This
is so because the anthracite coal is
necessarily slOw-burning fuel and
delivers Its heat very slowly. 1t also
contains more heat units per pound
than the average bituminous coal, and
for that reason more bituminous coal
THAN anthracite is required to do the
same amount of heating
''The householder In buying soft coal
for his bins should select coal of the
same size as the hard coal used. The
size should not exceed three-inch
Jumps. Soft coal Is a freer burning
fuel on account Of the gas 1t contains.
For this reason the two exhibit differ

WHAT Ia CAN
@l( X bSt

Surgeons General Gorgas and Braist-
ed of the army and navy. have APP
pealed to the American Red Cross to
recruit $4,000 nurses in a campaign
which began June 3. The Red Cross
has issued several pamphlets urging
trained nurses to enroll for war serv-
ice and every trained nurse in this
country should answer the call. 1t
may be months before some nurses
may be called to the service and many
may not be called at all. but all should
register. Then the government can
sift out the $4,000 that it needs at
once
1t is stated that 20 per cent of the
registered nurses in America are in
private emplOyment-that is, not In in
situations. The public must reduce its
calls upon trained nurses and employ
practical nurses instead so as to re-
lease these young women for war serv-
ice.
How to Enroll az a Red Cross Nurse.
Nurses desiring general information
regarding Red Cross work should adj
dress: Department Of Nursing, Amer
lean Red Cross. Washington, d. c..
Or applications may be made through
any local Red Cross chapter. Nurses
residing in the central division of the
country may send direct to Red Cross
Central Division, $50 North Wabash
avenue, Chicago, Ill.
The Duties Of a Red Cross Nurse.
RED Cross nurses assigned to
military hospitals are charged with
the nursing care of the sick and
wounded Of the army and navy and
become temporarily members of the
army and navy corps. They are SUBJ
Ject to all the rules and regulations
governing the service. They are re-
sponsible to the chief nurse of the
Army and Navy Nurse corps under
the commanding officer Of the hospital
to which they are assigned and are
expected to accept her authority with
out question"
Requirements for Red Cross Nursing
Service.
ITO be eligible for enrolment a
nurse must be a graduate of a rec
ognized school for nurses, giving at
least two years course of training in
general hospital. In states where
registration is provided by law, an ap-
plicant, to be eligible for enrolment,

Men Having Gray Eyes Have
Proved to Be Best Marksmer

Gray-eyed men. says a Fort Worth
correspondents are the best marksmen.
This has been proved after eight
months experience at the rife range
Of Camp Bowie, and besides old army
experts will tell you the same thing.
When Capt. Il. II. Breese was here
giving his instruction In the use Of the
new rifle he said that proficiency in
craftsmanship usually ran according
to the color of the eyes, men having
gray being the best shots, gray-blue
coming next, blue third, hazel fourth.
brown fifth, and black sixth. I.
Records show that soldiers whose
eyes are light brown to black cannot
shoot with accuracy at distance
greater than 500 yards and at 800
yards miss the target altogether.
Even with different nations the
color Of the eyes has determined
shooting ability. Nearly every Mex
lean has brown or black eyes and they

the world.

Physical Standards.

What ReereationaI Features Are
There7
Leaves of absence are granted from
time to time as the exigencies Of the
service permit. The surgeon generals
Office is making every effort to pro-
vide comfortable living quarters for
the nurses. The Red Cross has COM
pleted plans for the building Of a
house for nurses at every army camp
In the United States. These houses
will consist of an assembly hall, IL
brary sewing room and kitchen, and
will add greatly to the comfort Of the
nurses. The assembly hall has been
so planned as to make 1t suitable for
dancing, receptions, lounging room
and the showing of motion pictures.
Compensation.
The minimum salary for service In
the United States is $50 per month.
and $50 monthly for service abroad,
with increased pay for chief nurses.
Maintenance Is provided for. Special
salary arrangements are made where
maintenance is not provided.
Legislation is now pending before
congress which if passed Will provide
definite rank for nurses. with increas-
es In pay"

Selection Of Breed.

Be sure that the male at the head

The Mediterranean or egg breeds
are: Leghorns, Minorcas, Spanish,
Blue Andalusians, and Anconas.
The American or general purpose
breeds are: Plymouth Rocks. Wyapr

land Reds, and Buckeyes.
The Asiatic or meat breeds are
Brahmas, Cochins. and Langshans.
The English breeds are: Dorkings,
Orpingtons, and Redcaps.
For farm use the American breeds
are probably the best.
Purcbred poultry means uniformity

Uniformity of products means in

Good Wartime Dishes.

A most tasty combination which was
discovered quite by accident Is the fol-
lowing: In preparing potato salad
for a small family the addition of
two guests made the stretching OF the
salad imperative, so a cupful of nice
ly seasoned cottage cheese, which had
been left over, was added TO the pota-
to salad, making such tasty one that
hereafter we will use cottage cheese
with our potato salad. A pimento had
been used to season the cheese. which
added to the appetizing flavor.
