When the snow flies next winter and
the hens stop laying egg prices will
likely soar. Then the Wisconsin
housewife who has jars Of eggs pre-
served in her basement will continue
to bake cakes, cookies and the other
foods using eggs. And she will not
be paying eXtravagant prices either.
In the spring and early part of June,
when the eggs are cheaper than they
are at any other time in the year, the
wise housewife preserves enough for
cooking purposes during October, No
Vember December and January when
the market price is high.
The first essential in preserving, &C
cOrding to James G. Halpin, president
of the Wisconsin State Poultry Breed
ers' association, is to select fresh, good
eggs. Then solutions of lime or water
glass, in wooden pals or earthenWare
crooks are used. About six quarts of
solution in q three-gallon crock or pail
will preserve ten dozen eggs.
Storing in WatergIass.
If Waterglass is to be used to store
eggs it can be purchased at any drug
store. Approximately one part of wa
terglass to nine parts of boiled water
which has been allowed to cool, are
the proportions recommended for mix
ing The mixture is stirred thorough
ly, poured into the crock or pail and
the eggs added.
Using Lime Solution.
When the lime solution is used it Is
made by shaking two pounds of quick
lime in a small quantity of hot water;
this is mixed with two gallons Of wa

AGRICULTURE OUR
GREATEST INDUSTRY
BY MELVIN A. BRANNON,
President Of BeIoit College.

There is no science, from astronomy
to bacteriology, which does not CON
tribute to scientific agriculture. Every
industry in the world depends upon
the products of this great vocation.
This is shown by a rehearsal of the
sources of supplies of raw materials
used in American manufacture The
sea furnishes One-half of l per cent,
The forests per cent, the mines 10
per cent, and the farms 81 per cent
Of all of our raw materials. Nine
tenths of all materials transported by
American agencies on land and sea
originate on the farms.
The value of farm lands in the
United States represent about % per
cent of our total wealth. This says
nothing about the value of equipment
and farm production. Associate with
this statement the fact that the aver
age farmer tilling quarter section
OF land operates a business which has
at least $4,000 of investment in land,
equipment, and working capital I'M
mediately one realizes from these ma
tional and individual values of farm
lands and separate farming units that
agriculture is by far our greatest in
dustry.

SAVED BY U. S. FOOD
Destitute People of Roumania Are
Grateful to America.
Timely Arrival of Supplies Prevents
Growth of Bolshevism and
Revolution.

Bucharest.-American flour and
clothing are saving the lives Of thou
sands of destitute people throughout
ROumania. The United States food
administration has already brought in
to the country nearly 10000 tons of
flour, while the American Red Cross,
which has q large mission established
here, is distributing clothing and gen.
eral relief supplies of all kinds among
the needy population.
The flour from America arrived at a
time when conditions were at their
worst and when local supplies for the
ROumanian people were almost ex-
hausted. 1t was feared that the want
of food would result in a state of boil
shevism and revolution.
This American flour has been a ire
mendous factor in preventing the I'M
rest. From it's relief stations estab-
lished at Bucharest, Jassy COnstanza,
GalatZ, Focsani and Pitesti, the Ameri-
can Red Cross is distributing it's sup
plies, and in every important village
an American Red Cross soup kitchen
is helping to feed the population.
Queen Marie, who has taken the
greatest interest in this relief work,
has assigned Prince Carol to cooper
ate with the American Red Cross. Col.
Henry w. Anderson, Red Cross COM
missioner to the Balkans, said that
three large consignments of relief sup
plies had already arrived in Rouma-
MIA, and that the fourth was already
on its way from Toulon, so that the
American Red Cross would soon be
able to care for every destitute person
in ROumania.

TRAINED WORKERS ARE BEST
Do Much More Efficient Work in Fac
tories Than Those Without
Training.

WaShingtOn.-InfOr reaching
the training service, department of
labor, from establishments where fac
tory training systems are in operation
indicates that foremen, after brief
experience with the training system,
insist upon having trained workers in
their departments, for the reason that
they do much more efficient work than
those who are put into the factory on
production work at the start Many
wOrkmen also ask for training, in or
der to Increase their earning capac-
ity, and so valuable has training
proved for peace time that last week
II factories adopted training systems,
a number almost equal to the average
installation of training departments
during the war.
In one large plant there was a feel
ing of hostility to training at the
start on the part of a number of fore
men. When the first graduate of a
training department was put on pro-
ductiOn work within a week and was
IOund Iully quallned Tor production
work, the foreman insisted that the
worker was exceptional. Under the
old system from three to six months
were required before workers were
able to produce the quantity and quail
itX of work required for a fair days
output.
When a considerable number of per
sons had been promoted to production
work after a week or ten days in train
ing, however, the foremen's views
changed very radically, and they re-
fused to take any applicants for work
who had not had the advantages of
the training system. At one time,
when the training department was
full, a new hand was sent at once to
the factory for production work, and
the foreman protested vigorously.

Climate Good for Crop.

"The climate of the state is particu-
larly suited to the production of dew
retted fiber of good strength and high
quality. The fall months are cool and
moist, which makes it possible to ret
the crop without scorching or over
retting, an item of vital Importance
in the production of good fiber.
THE yields Of fiber obtained in this
state have been entirely satisfactory,
ranging from 1000 to over 1000 pounds
to the acre; the quality of Wisconsin's
hemp fiber is equal to that produced
in any other state; and our farmers
have received profitable returns from
the culture of the crop.
Especially constructed and equipped
mills are established in the state FOR
separating the fiber from the stalks.
In fact, Wisconsin now has over 70
per cent Of the total number of hemp
mills in the United States"
Many Uses for Fiber.
Hemp is grown for seed, medicine,
and fiber, but in the United States it
is grown mostly as a fiber crop. Our

TEACH CALVES TO EAT GRAIN
Drop Small Amount in Bucket When
Milk Is Given-Youngster Will
Try to Get Every Drop.

One of the easiest ways to get
calves to eat grain is to drop bit
in the bucket just as soon as the milk
is drunk 1t is natural for the calves
to lick the pail to get every drop,
and in this action they get the taste
of the grain Hardly ever does a calf
refuse to lick the pail if a little bran
and cornmeal, with possibly some mid
dlings, are dropped in just as she fin.

most important use Of the fiber at the
present time, according to Mr.. Wright,
is in the manufacturing of commercial
twines, or wrapping cords.
The present uses are limited pri
marily because there is not enough OF
the fiber produced in this country to
satisfy even the demand for CONNER

CONQUEST OF The AIR
AERIAL SERVICE FOR PAssEN-
GERS, MAIL AND MER-
CHANDlSE.
BIROMEN MEET NEXT MONTH
Big Convention OF Pan-Ameriean Aero
nauts Will Stimulate Enlistments
In the v. S. Air Service.

Atlantic City, New Jersey, will he
the Mecca for a large gathering OF
American men, and representatives Of
foreign countries, who will be at
tracted by the first Pan-American
Aeronautics Convention, which meets
there in May.
Captain Charles J. Glidden, of the
U. S. Air Service, Military Aeronau-
tics, now stationed in the adminstra-
tive department Of the United States
Flying School, Southerfield, Georgia,
says:
"The Pan-American Aeronautics
Convention and exhibition to be held
at Atlantic City during the month Of
May will bring to the attention Of the
American people the wonderful pro-
gress of aviation. The work of air
craft during the war establishes its
practicability for commercial uses and
insures the creation in this country OF
complete aerial service, connecting
all cities and towns for the transpor-
tation of persons, mail and merchan-
disc.
Before the close of 1920 I conf
IDENTIFY predict this service will be In
full operation, with extensions to all
countries on this hemisphere. In the
United States trunk lines will be estab-
lished across the country which will
place every city and town within six
hours from some twenty-four distrib-
uting points. Once created and in OPP
Grafton our extensive coast line could
be put under complete protection from
any possible invasion. Thousands OF
college trained aviators in and out OF
the service are now waiting to join In
the operation of an aerial service
"The government calls for fifteen
thousand men to enlist in air service
for one or three years time. This Is
bound to receive a quick response, as
here is an opportunity for men to be
Immediately assigned to duty in the
service and of the number who enlist
those who pass certain examinations
will be given flying and balloon pilot
ing instruction. This liberal offer Is
equivalent to q one or three years
college course in aeronautics, and one
may become expert in all branches or
aviation, and If qualified non-com-
missioned or even commissioned Of
ficer. In addition to regular pay, cloth
ing, quarters and rations extra pay
begins with instructions to operate
the aircraft. AS the number Of men
wanted is limited to fifteen thousand
for the entire country, quick applica-
ton to the nearest recruiting officer
will be necessary before the privilege
is withdrawn.
Everybody directly and Indirectly
interested in aviation should attend
the Atlantic City convention and exhi-
bition in order to keep abreast with
the times and become familiar with
the development of aircraft for de-
Tense and commercial uses and wit
ness the demonstrations of the worlds
greatest airplane aviators, who Will
fly, and balloon pilots sail to the AT
lantic air port from all over the

Fighters Object to German Music.

New York.-German numbers were
hastily stricken from the program OF
concert and ball of the Master Ba-
kers' Association of New York when
the concert hall was rushed by more
than 100 soldiers, who threatened to
"clean up the place" Police reserves
and detachment of Provost Guards
were summoned and elected the uni
formed men, but not until a promise
had been obtained from directors Of
the entertainment that no German
music would be rendered. The sol
diers and sailors who invaded the con-
cert hall were the "skirmishers" of n
party of nearly 1000 uniformed men
outside, who were assembled when n
telephone call was received at the
Navy Club apprising members that a
German concert was being held on
the eve of the Victory Loan campaign

BANK PLAN IS DELAYED
Campaign For Legislation Postponed
BY Advocates Of the Home
Loans Proposition.

washington-The Legislative Com
mittee of the United States League OF
Building and Loan Associations has
decided the proposed legislation for a
system of federal home loan banks
will not be submitted to the extra SEES
sion of Congress, If one is called. The
decision is the result of two-day con-
ference. Il. l.. Kessler, president OF
the league, said there was full agree
ment on the fundamental features OF
the tentative draft of the proposed bill,
but members of the Legislative Com
mittee hesitated to commit the league
TO certain details in the bill without
submitting them to the national con-
vention TO be held in Detroit, Mich, In
July. They will be prepared TO make
their campaign for this legislation In
the next regular session of Congress.

Archangel.-Since landing on the
Archangel front last September, the
Americans have suffered $40 casual

there having died OF disease or been
killed, nine officers and 1877 men. The
men wounded consist of II officers and
800 men. Losses of Americans on the
north Russian front during me past
