CANDLED EGGS
THE HIGHEST PRICE

BY reason of Food Administration
regulations, requiring the Gambling OF
eggs. dealers in that commodity re-
ceived Is per cent more for their
eggs last summer than ever before.
SO elated we're they that at a recent
meeting, held at the Seelbach, the
Kentucky Poultry and Egg Associa-
ton went on record as favoring cand-
ling of eggs in summer. With that
end in view, a committee OF four,
composed of S. Crystal, of Bowling
Green; David Maloney, of Louisville;
II. G. Pierce, Harrodsburg, and l.. G..
Smith, Shelbyville, was appointed to
present the matter to the State Board
of Health at its next meeting. 1t Is
hoped by the retailers that the State
health body will take action, requir-
ing the Gambling of eggs, so that such
ruling may become effective not
later than May Is.
Present at the conference OF deal
ers were Representatives from the
State Department of Agriculture and
the Division of Extension, University
of Kentucky. These representatives
said that the farmers of the State
were convinced that the only proper
way to sell eggs was on a candled
basis. During the past season, they
said, the farmers learned that hereto
fore. by selling case count" the good
farmer, who took care of his product,
had to pay for the poor stuff of the
careless farmer.
Resolutions were adopted calling
upon the State Board of Health to
issue an order, requiring all dealers,
except the retailers, to obtain a IL
censes, under penalty of revocation
of license. to candle all eggs before
purchase. paying only for good eggs
and making no dockage, except on
losses shown by Gambling, to keep
necessary records to verify purchases
and to place certificates of Gambling
in cases of all eggs sold.

AS 1T APPEARED
TO A PESSINIIST

Clark Adams. of the St Louis
Pos, Dispatch. has found the cham
pion pessimist IN this country. At
least the fellow doesn't seem to be
able to see the humOr of the situation
as regards the troubles of the world.
When man cant see humOr in trou-
bles, he is a pessimist, nothing else.
According to McAdams the follow
ing was asked for contribution to a
worthy cause, and in declining to
make any further outlay for any fur
Their cause, he wrote:
II have been held up. held down,
sand bagged, walked on. sat on, roll

highway tax. the income tax, the auto
tax, the school tax. the syntax, and
every society and organization that
the mind of men can invent to ex-
tract what you have or may not have,

he is rather a cheerful pessimist, for
he is kept alive by curos.sy, and the
curious are always cheerful.

said, there will be plenty Of work In
storing war materials and in similar
tasks to keep the men busy. The &C
ton was taken not only to help the
soldiers individually but also to aid
in solving the problem of unemploy-
ment occasioned by the return Of
large umbers of soldiers to civil life
and by the temporary stagnation in
certain Industrial fields as a result OF
the sudden cessation of war activi-
ties. Dependents of soldiers will
continue to draw their allotments
during this temporary service, 1t was
said.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

-Four hundred and twenty-five

unknown thousands of miles. The

WILL BALLOT IN
open TO SELECT
SCHOOL BOOKS

INDIANAPOLIS, April 5,--After
lively discussion, during which feeling
ran high, the members of the Indiana
state board of education, meeting in
the state superintendent office at the
state-house Friday, voted to have an
open ballot for the adoption of text
books for the grade schols of Indiana
during the next five years, and to have
an open meeting for the discussion
of the merits of the books submitted
by bidders. The board fixed April II
as the date for letting the contracts.
This means that on the morning of
April II, at 10 o'clock, When the books
will be discussed by the board, the
public, including the interested book
men, will be permitted to hear the
discussion, and when the board mem
bers cast their votes for the adoption
of each of the books, their votes will
be made in public.
Thirty-Three Bidders.
Thirty-three book firms submitted
bids for providing readers, arithme-
tics, domestic science books and writ
ing books. Nearly fifty agents of these
companies crowded into the room to
see the bids opened. AS the books
to be bought by Indiana school chill
dren during the next five years under
the contracts to be let may amount
altogether in cost to nearly s1,500,000,
the deliberations of the board have
assumed great importance. There
never has been time during recent
years that school book interests have
exerted greater pressure of all kinds
in relation to the school book letting
than they have exerted this year.
A discussion started when Charles
o. Williams of Richmond, superintend-
ent of the Wayne county schools, NOV
ed that when the state board of edu-
cation meets as a state textbook board
to let contracts for books to be adopt
ed for use in the schools, all ballots
should be taken by roll call and shall
be recorded. w. w. Parsons, presi.
dent of the Indiana State Normal
school. supported Mr.. Williams in the
motion.
II am in favor of letting the sun
