pack eggs in sawdust, grain, sand and
salt, or coat the shells with oil such
as vasaline or paraffn. Cold storage
keeps germs inactive, but when the
eggs are removed from cold storage
to- a warm place the decay goes on
very rapidly so that the eggs must be
used at once.
One of the most satisfactory me-
thods of preserving eggs is by the
use of water glass, or Silicate of Soda,
which may be obtained at the drug
store for 45c quart. This is diluted
with 9 parts Of water that has been
boiled and cooled. This amount will
cover one case of 80 doz. eggs. Place
the eggs in large stone crock. Have
the liquid cover the eggs at least a
couple of inches. Cover the crock to
prevent evaporation.
The eggs when rinsed off, may be
used in cooking as fresh eggs. How
ever since the water glass coats the
pores of the shell, to keep the eggs
from cracking when boiling them,
prick the shell az couple of times and
they will not crack.

The great drawback to the use of

Powdered peat is not as explosive as

in so many fatal accidents, and as

DETENTION OF LABOR BY
WAR DEPARTMENT BIG
INJUSTICE TO FARMERS

The farmers of the country, Arthur
S. Henning, staff correspondent OF the
Chicago Tribune; learns, are up IN
arms over the refusal of the War de-
partment to release from the army
camps thousands of soldiers desper-
ately needed to plant the crops this
spring.
Senators and representatives have
been inundated with appeals for re-
lief from the agricultural sections IN
which the shortage of farm labor is
so acute as to threaten diminution
OF food crops and the Secretary of
War is being bombarded by the states
men. Altogether, a showdown be-
tween the farmers and the War de-
partment appears imminent.
In a vigorous letter to the Acting
Secretary of War, Mr.. Crowell, Rep
resentative Frank l.. Smith. of Hi
nois, has voiced the demands of the
farmers and their lack of compfehen-
sion of Decentralization system which
releases thousands of men without
jobs whom tie government is eXpend-
ing hundreds of thousands of dollars
to aid in procuring employment,
while retaining in the service thous-
ands of farm hands clamorng 10 be
discharged in order to return to the
jobs awaiting them.
Mr.. Crowell has not replied to Mr..
Smiths representations but the War
department has contended hitherto
that<only indispensable soldiers were
being retained in the service and that
the war emergency is not ended. Off
cial utterances have intimated broadly
that as a large army still is neces-
sary to back up the President in fore
ing the enemy to conclude a satisfac-
tory peace, it is little short of unpatri-
otto if not disloyal to demand dis
charges so numerous as to weaken our
forces under arms.
The farm rs retort that the forces
would not be weakened if men re-
turned from overseas without jobs In
sight We're assigned to army camps
to replace the farm hands and others
with jobs awaiting them.
Each case in which the discharge
of a soldier is asked to enable him
to return to farm work is an emer-
gency case.a desperately urgent case
at this time because the planting sea-
son is here, and if farm is not plant
Cd within the next few weeks it must
lie idle, Representative Smith wrote.
There is not time now to go through
the tedious process of getting up aft
davits and waiting for discharge
boards to act in each separate case.
There must be relief at once or the
food production of the country will
be dangerously reduced. Not only
that, but there will be widespread dis
satisfaction with the government"
Mr.. Smith said he is flooded with
appeals from farmers for relief, but
that 'tkere is an increasing tendency
upon the part of all officers-and par
