and team, the cost was S72. After
roads in this region were improved,

Unprecedented Road Program.
This is a lesson cities as well as
rural districts are learning. In the bu-
eeau Of public roads, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, which admin
listers the federal aid road act, Is cen

struction which federal funds help car
~ on. At the close Of last year, prof.
ect statements had been approved call
ing for federal aid to The amount Of
$11O,S4O,7 73--a sum which indicates
how fully the nation IS convinced that
better roads mean better business. The
total federal funds available to aid
the states in their road-bui,ding pro-
grams up to July 1, 1920, will be $780,
75O,OOO-and this total is exceeded by
the combined expenditures OF state,
county, and municipalities.
Better Roads, Better Business.
The business considerations back Of

WHAT IS A FRESH EaG7

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-That is
the puzzling question raised by a
new state law which prohibits the
sale of anything but fresh eggs.
OF course, the easiest way to tell
is to see whether the egg retaliates
in its own odorferous way when it
is smashed, but the problem is to
decide an eggs age without giving
it the Christopher Columbus"
A committee called by Fredk. Ras-
mussen, state secretary of agricul-
ture. after ive-hour conference,
during which eggs of all ages were
tested, decided TO define fresh one
as follows:
Its white is capable of whipping
we'll. In cooking it can be salts.
factorily poached or soft boiled |,
has not absorbed foreign disagree
able odors. Its embryo shall not
have developed, appreciably. The
yolk should be fairly stiff and we'll.
rounded and the white should not be
watery and the chalaza shall be well
defined"
The "chalaza" is the thin skin that
holds the yolk intact. Still you have
to "bust" the egg to decide.

Stocks.
Money continues the dominating
factor In the stock market. With rates
fiuctuating between 10 and 20 per
cent the resistance offered around the
New Year was remarkable and indi-
Gates strong technical position. Last
quarter interest and dividend pay
ments CONSTRUCTED funds, and doubt Is
expressed as to how much relief can
be expected after the new year. Sales
to establish losses have exercised dim
inishing influnce, and re-buying
should now make itself felt. This
factor will tend to sustain prices In
the face OF high call rates.
Broadly summarizing, while the
market has recovered from its ex-
treme pessimism and the trend seems
upward. brokers do not foresee an act
i've market coupled with a marked as
cent OF prices until money conditions
relax. Speculative shares will prob
ably show considerable steadiness as
holders will refrain from selling on a
dull market
