SKILLFUL PIECE OF WORK
Novel Feat Of Engineering Recently
Put to the Credit Of American
Bridge Builders.

Not long ago IL was discovered that
the piers Of the combined highway and
railroad bridge across the Missouri
river at st. Joseph. Mo-, were in bad
condition and II would be necessary
to build new piers. At first II was
proposed to build the new piers on
the downstream side of the old bridge
and shift the bridge laterally to the
new position. in this way maintaining
traffic over the old bridge while the
new construction was going on. But
the war department required the in
stallation Of larger draw-span In the
bridge and so 1t was decided to build
the new piers between the old piers.
After they were completed the fixed
spans of the bridge were moved shore
ward endwise, so that they rested on
the new piers. A temporary span was
constructed to fill the gap thus Oc-
casiOned, so that traffic was closed
over the bridge for less than ten hours.
Then work was begun upon the new
swing span. which was built as can't.
lever in open position. To permit Of
this, a portion of the old swing-span
had to be cut away and temporary
lift-span was put in to take care of
river traffic. Thus the bridge was re-
constructed without changing Its
alignment.--Scientific American.

Small insectike parasites, commonly

PROJECTIONS In commercial handling,
grading and marketing previous to
storage are mainly responsible for bad
eggs developing after storage.
These are two conclusions reached
by specialists Of the United States de-
pertinent of agriculture as the result
of a series of experiments with cold
storage eggs recently reported. The
eggs were produced mainly In the mid
die West, and all were stored in ware
houses in the East. Other conclusions
reached were as follows:
Preservation in the shell of under
grade eggs, including those that are
dirty, cracked, heated or stale should
not be attempted. If not marketed for
prompt consumption, the contents
should be removed under proper con-
ditions and frozen. The frozen prod
uct will keep in good condition for a
year or more where there would be a
marked loss by spoilage In few
months If the eggs were stored In the
shell.
Spring eggs on the market are usu-
ally fresher than summer eggs, and for
that reason keep better In storage.
Most of the eggs stored are produced
in the spring.
Selection Method inefficient.
The common method Of grading from
current receipts by inspection, and by
clicking to determine cracked shells is
inefficient. Cases Of commercial "spring
frsts." sorted bv. this method showed.

Turning to conditions In India,
Bishop Warne discussed the great

been the marvel of Christian leaders.
Bishop Warne said:
"ThiS movement has swept on,
gradually increasing in force and
expansion until in the Methodist
church alone-to say nothing Of
others-we are baptizing about
10000 converts year, and holding
back about 100000 on our waiting
list. There has never been any
where else such a situation in
church history. These great null
titudes are being held back for
lack of missionaries and money
to train and support Indian work.

uation furnishes one of the
strongest reasons for the cente-
nary call for the conservation Of
the young life Of our churches In
Christian America and a call to
the whole church for sufficient
funds to meet this great emer.
gency."
Bishop Warne and other speakers
of the convention presented a vivid
picture Of the similar situation in
other parts of the world. and at home.
