Subject of Women Preachers
DiSruptS Church of ENGLAND

London, June 2O.-Whether wom-
en- should be allowed to preach in
the Church in England threatens
to divide that organization into
two camps. One, said to be sup
ported by the bishops, is in favor
of allowing women to be. ordained
ministers. The other, of which the
English Church union forms a sub
stantial part, believes that entrance
of women as pastors, however, cui-
tured and religious they might be,
is the thin end of a wedge Of a
woman priesthood"
The convocation next July may
have to consider this question.
Those opposed to the innovation
assert large numbers will desert to
the Roman Catholic church if wom-
en- are allowed to preach.

LOWER FOOD COSTS
NOW BOARDS GOAL

Washington, April 19.-Members
OF the Department of Commences in
dustrial board indicated today that
the board would resume its general
price sterilization program without
waiting for settlement differences
with the railroad administration over
steel prices. 1t was said that an in
tensive effort Would be made To re
duce the cost of food and other neces-
stiles.
President Wilson's cablegram TO
Secretary Redfield was Interpreted
by the board members as authorizing
the board to continue its activities.
Mr.. Redfield returned to Washington
tonight from New England and Il
was expected that conferences be-
tween the board and the railroad ad-
ministration representatives will be
resumed Monday, althO it was re-
garded as probable that no final
agreement could be made effective
uHlll
ed from his Western trip.
Officials said today that before the
controversy with the railroad admin
istration arose, the board not only
had held conferences with many in
dustries producing raw materials, but
also had taken vigorous steps TO
bring about a reduction in the cost Of
living. In this connection it was
said that the board had been active
in urging a clearly defined admins
tration of the wheat appropriation
bill TO the end that the people could
purchase wheat products at a reason
able cost with the government taking
the loss on the difference between
the guarantee price and the normal
market price.

GENERAL FOCH, THE
GRAY MAN OF CHRIST"

Probably never in the history of

spiritual character than by the

Methodist Centenary Movement has
asked that the 1882 Methodist
churches in the country shall set

%. for special intercession. The
Centenary Movement is emphasizing
anew the prayer side of life.
The Ladies Home Journal for April
has a very striking story in this con-
nection on the prayer life of General
Foch, under the heading The Gray
Man of Christ" Says the Journal:
He never failed during the war
to spend an hour on his knees every
morning, and every night it was the
same.
Moreover, it was not a new thing
to him. He has done it his whole
me lOHS'
Men who do that which FOch does
have no doubts.
When Premier Clemenceau. the
old Tiger of France, stood on the
battle front whit anxious heart, one
look at the face of Foch stilled all
mis- fears. He turned to Paris with
the vision of cure and certain victory
The great statesman doubted, but the
Gray Man of Christ did not doubt.
The facts in the case. then, are that
when the freedom Of the world hung
in the balance, the world turned to
Foch as the one great genius who
could save 1t dgairst the Hun; ana
that Foch, who is perhaps the great
est soldier the world has produced is
first of all, a Christian.

Watch Your Eggs.

A bad egg tested is a good egs
wasted. to the extent that Madam
Hen often is criticized where she
should be eulogized. Industriously
the hen works to lay an egg a day
and other conditions being equal, the
egg as produced is as nearly a per
feet food product as fowl ingenuity
can make IL. If the hen is properly
fed. If the nests are clean, IL the eggs
are gathered twi,c daily, stored in a
cool. dry rooyo O1 cellar and deliver
ed 10 the city consumer in prime con-
dillon. the consumer grins apprecia
ticn as he breakfasts on shirre1 eggs
of matchless market quality.
On the other hap1. IL the ROSTERS
are allowed to run with the flock
after the Matching season, If the hens
arc not properly and regularly fed,
IL the nests are dirty and crO vled, if
the eggs are gathered only once CIV
cry other day, and if thereafter the
eggs are stored in warm, ill-ventilat-
ed quarters, and if marketing is de-
ferred until enough eggs have col
lected to fill the crate, the city con-
sumer usually grunts disgust and
shouts for a gas mask when the eggs
appear opposite him at the table.
Bad eggs are not the result of ac-
cident, they are examples of neglect,
slovenly management, and shiftless-
ness. 1t is just as easy to produce
and market good-quality eggs as il
is to offend customers with stale,
fertile eggs. Farmers lose approx
mately s5O,O00,O0O a year from bad
methods of producing and handling
eggs. One-third of this loss is pre-
venta BILE, because it is due to partial
Matching of fertile eggs which have
been allowed to become warm enough
to begin to incubate.
The rooster makes the egg fertile
while the fertilized egg produces the
blood ring which is the partial de-
velopment of the chick. The rooster
does not increase the egg production;
he merely fortified the germ of the
egg, and hence he should be allowed
to run with the flock only during the
Matching season. After the Matching
season is over the male birds should
be confined, killed or sold.

One of the best fly poisons Is

mixture in shallow dishes, preferably

flies are numerous, and eliminate
miscellaneous supplies of water, so
that thirsty flies are mostly compell-
ed to drink the poison.

Sweet Potato Crop Doubles Its Farm
Value In Ten Years.

Irish potatoes, as a commercial
sweet potatoes. Within the last 10
years the farm value of the latter
crop in this country has doubled and
now is second only in Irish potatoes
in commercial importance. To as
sist growers who are not familiar
with the culture and storage of sweet
potatoes, the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture has recently pub
lished Farmers Bulletin 999, Sweet
Potato Growing" which discusses the
subject from the preparation of the
soil and growing of the plants to
harvesting, storage and marketing of
the crpo.
Sweet potatoes can be grown under
a wide range of conditions for home
use, says the bulletin, but when they
are 10 be produced commercially,
careful consideration should be given
10 the necessity of suitable soil, ia
vorable climate, accessible market,
ample transportation, and proper
storage Storage is of great i'm
portance, for if the crop is improperly
cured and stored it will decay rapidly
and the whole years work will be
lost. But il is possible by improved
methods to hold sweet potatoes for
several months at practically no loss.
This crop is propagated by plants
produced by sprouting sweet potatoes
IN warm sand. Potatoes from which
the plants are to be grown should
be planted in early spring in hotbeds
In the South, where no bottom heat
IS necessary, cold frames may be used
successfully. Good plants are neces-
sary for a successful crop, for a big
