bulletin:
A recent letter from the Depart
ment of Agriculture at Washington
reports that the movement OF eggs
from cold storage began month
earlier than usual. This is due TO the
fact that the Food Administration
has ruled that the profits on colo
storage eggs shall be limited, the SELL
inc price not to exceed what is fixed
as a reasonable percentage on the
cost of the eggs and the cost of car
rying them. Thus the tendency will
be for eggs to go out of storage as
fast as the consumptive trade will
take care of them when prices have
reached that level. There will be no
inducement to egg operators to hold
their eggs for higher price, because
they are allowed only stated profit
and as soon as prices reach that height
where they can unload at this profit,
it will be a matter of business for
them to sell.
This accounts to certain extent
for the earlier movement OF eggs
from cold storage and VIII probably
leave the markets bare OF eggs, eX-
cept fresh eggs for much longer
period than at any time III recent
years. Naturally, ,u'fs nl!ali0 q ul1
higher price for the fresh egg. Such
a prospect should be special 1ncen-
tive to every egg producer to work
faithfully for good production in the
fall and early winter. High prices
for eggs are only an aggravation to
the poultrymen when they are get
ting very small percent of produc-
ton.
The aim should be to keep only the
producers. The drones are easily
distinguished; why keep them? The
art of culling is easily learned and
costs you nothing but the time. Ii
you are interested write to your
county agent, or to the Extension
Service of the University of Vermont
and they will notify you when and
where a culling demonstration will
be held in your neighborhood.

Acknowledgements Soldier
Killed in Action.

Washington, Jan. 23.-Seasoned by
hard work behind the lines, American
regulars now are believed TO be TAX
ing their regular places in the front
line trenches and in the scouting
across mo Mans Land" which is the
only actual fighting now going on along

depreciation which Washington army
officers placed on the brief dispatch
from General Pershing announcing
that another American soldier-COr-
poral Walter Roberts of Hartline,
Wash. had made the supreme sacri-
fee for his country. Roberts was kill
ed in clash, presumably between pa
trolls, last Sunday. General Pershing,
in the briefest of report on the sub
ject, simply announced that he had
been "killed in action"
Two commissioned officers and a
private in Pershing's force were killed
in an aerial collision in France on Sun
day. official report of this was re-
celved at the war department from
General Pershing. Those killed were

HITS 1000 BADGER PLANTS.
Effect OF Closing Order Felt by 23o, COO
Workers in the State.

Madison, Wis About two hundred
and thirty thousand Wisconsin work
ers will be affected by Fuel Adminis-
traitor Garfields order, according TO Il.
f. Wtte, secretary of the Wisconsin
industrial commission. 1t will hit
some 1000 plants in the state paying
wages OF $l0,400,000 for the thirteen
days included in the order.
Nearly $500 plants in Milwaukee,
with 125,000 employees, will be closed
during the prescribed period. one OF
the regions that will be greatly af'
fected is the Fox river valley with
many factories. In Madison fourteen
large factories and a dozen small ones
will be affected, employing roughly
10000 hands, with daily payroll of at
least $4,000. In Sheboygan the order
will affect 1872 industries and 8,056
workers.
Sixty-two hundred Beloit workmen
are affected by the edict. Several
shops have big stocks of fuel. The
Fairbanks Morse company has been
furnishing 100 tons daily to workmen.
The order will force 5000 La Crosse
working men to be idle, according to
the estimate of the fuel administrator
there.
In Racine it is estimated that there
are 5000 hands employed by the 212
/ factories coming under the order. The
county council OF defense there hopes
TO get permission for the factories
working on government orders to con
tinue on them alone. The HorIick
Matted Milk plant and the Wisconsin
condensery at Burlington are sup
posed to be in the excepted class
In the Michigan copper country APP
proximately twenty mining companies
and 10000 employees in a community Of
100000 people are affected. An effort
| is being made to secure exemption for
the copper mining companies from the
| order.

learned from the editors of these pa
perS.
1--WE were informed unoflicially that
the only reason for the post Office de-

that all three publications published

scented to President Wilson by Mrs.
