Keeps the Food juices Sealed In
The great advantage of a higher
burning point in frying steak, fish
onions, and other odoriferous foods
IS that the higher temperature, used
with corn oil, makes it possible to
cook the food in shorter space OF
time, and thereby prevents the tough
ening of the meat. the driving out OF
the fish, and the diffusion of the per
fumes not of Araby from other comes,
tibles.
Also, the use of corn oil at its
unusually high temperature" seals in
immediately the surface juices of the
food, retaining thereby the flavor
aroma, and succulence which would
otherwise be lost or else disseminated
all over the neighborhood. The food
is cooked in its own juice, instead OF
being saturated with burnt grease
that would give the foo la flavor and
odor anything but desirable
This makes it possible to fry dough
nuts. fish. onions. or any food, pro
duct in ne pan, and at one timc--ii
it were necessary without any one
product taking up the odors or fla
yQrs of any of the other products.
This is carrying American efficien
cy into the kitchen. with vengeance
right ituo the heart of the frying
pan. All of which makes for the con
scJyatiOn OF life aud health-also for
the increase of happiness and the sat
jslactiou Of being alive

Ever since the Indians passed the

CONGRESS AGAINST

Congress. is definitely set against

it now appears.
Republican leaders in both houses,
who have railroad legislation in
charge, have announced themselves
as against either Federal control or
Government ownership. They are di-

it was stated
In the Senate, a subcommittee Is
framing an entirely new bill which
will provide for restoration of the
roads to their owners. Although the
form of the bill has not been worked
out, its main features will include:
Return of railroads to their own
ers
Extension Of Interstate Commefce
Commission powers.
: Fixed guaranteed return to inves-
tors. z
UnihcStioa Of competing roads as
to terminals and service.
These principles, embodying the
views Of Senator Cummins, chairman
Of the committee, are being used as
the guide in working out details
Some form Of regional administration
probably will be considered to CO.
ordinate the larger transportation
systems of the country. But this
plan will not require merging of sys-

Backing up the attitude Of Senate
leaders is the announced policy Of
Chairman Esch, of the House Com

ton under discussion.
Although the Senate Committee is
in daily session, members do not
expect TO have a bill formulated be-
fore another month.

are reported IN q recent publication
OF the Department Of Commerce to be
most successful, and should modern
methods of sanitation be used the

The Chinese are great consumers of
eggs and poultry, but the production

The incuhating methods are so sue

vicinity furnishes over a half million
birds each year.

The Chinese methods are very In
teresting to those used to modern
eontrivances. The eggs are first
heated to about 10S degrees in a large
brick oven heated by charcoal bra

holding two or three hundred eggs
are thus heated at one time. They

Over Private Wires
Shannon X Co.'s Letter

New York, September 9.--As the ses- sion advances prices took on more firm ness today, much of which was credited to covering by shorts who were in- fluenced by the strength of the stock market, the better tone to foreign ex- change and fear of bad weather over the holiday. It is also reported that for eign banking operations will be permitted under federal supervision in which case there is little reason to doubt that the central empires will find a way to ob- tain supplies of raw materials here through financial assistance of those of the same nationality. Reports re- garding the storm were that it had reached the coast of Florida. with the wind blowing 100 miles an hour at Key West New Orleans advices were to the same effect and also that the spot de- mand showed signs of reviving there. The New Orleans exchange will be closed tomorrow. Exports today were 24,0O bales.
 Should there be no storm damage over the holiday, traders think the market will be put under severe pressure again and may be forced to new low levels by fresh and more aggressive operations for short account. It looks, however, as if the amount wanted on scale down from these prices will be sufficient to provide a steadier market, and open the way for a later recovery.

S. R. Stewart & Co.'s Letter

New Orleans, September 9.-Liverpool spots today shows an increase in pur- chases probably induced by the ginners report yesterday, which is a bullish feat ure. Futures there did not respond to our advance, closing practically un- changed from yesterdays close.
 The market here opened 20 to 90 points lower on the Liverpool showing, and the weather may shopping less rain over night, and the preponderance of bearish feeling and control developed during the recent period. This shows in the con- fident pounding of the market on rallies, and. the market after advancing some was sold down to 2S.25c for December at the beginning of the second hour of trad ing, which was the low point of the day
 After nearly Sc decline, and in view of the adjusted relations between spots and contracts, technical conditions and the weather situation. there are periods of strong buying in the market. It is not yet coAtinuous enough to sustain a bulish turn, but reflects the buying attraction. Spots were unchanged with no sales.-John F. Clark & Co.
