The Right Method of Mailing Crates
Is Shown in Fig. I, Proper Methods
of Packing in Fig 2, 8 and 4-Poorly
Made and Packed Crates Are Shown
in Figs. and 6.
Experimental shipments in different
kinds Of shipping cases and with the
different methods of packing the eggs
in the cases have been made and the
results compared. An instrument has
been devised for measuring and re-
cording the shocks to which cars con-
tanning eggs we're subjected while IN
transit.
AS a result of these experiments the
specialists have recommended methods
of packing eggs which reduce breakage
to a minimum. These methods have
been tried under a great variety of
conditions, and have been Incorporated
as requirements in the railroad and ex-
press classitications for the transpOr-
tatiOn of eggs.
Nails in place save claims, 1t Is terse-
ly said; and, as shown in figure l,
the number and arrangement Of these
necessary in order to conform with
the requirements of the express ana
consolidated freight classifcations are
as follows:
Threepenny nails. cement coated, with
large heads.
IS nails for each side, for each end.
in center.
p nails for bottom, in each end. In
center.
nails for top, in each end, for nusn
cleat.
nails for top in each end, for drop
cleat
Egg packers are advised to be sure
that they use the correct number Of
nails.
When 6 paper-covered excelsior mats
are used, flats should not be placed be-
tween the mats and the filters. When
are employed, it Is best to begin by
placing one 25-cup filler, receiving side
downward, on the bottom of the case.
Then place one 16-Cup filler, receiving
side upward on top, nesting it. Fill
the cups with eggs and cover with one
16-cup filler. Then place one 25-cup
filler, receiving side upward; fill cups
with eggs and cover with a 25-cup
filler.
Improper packing invites breakRge,
and figure illustrates a poorly packed
case. Sometimes an extremely thin
layer of excelsior, many times a small
amount Of loose paper or perhaps
nothing at all is placed on the top and
bottom, leaving the case loosely packed
and the chances for breakage and loss
are great. Very frequently such poor
ly packed cases have broken and
stained filters and flats, and such a
combination greatly increases the prob.
ability of damage.

Two New Title Tournaments
To Be Held ON Local Courts
Mems and Women's Met
Indoor Tennis Cham
pionships Added to List

The game of tennis grows III every
direction, until now it has become an
all-year proposition, with the indoor
season waxing almost as active as the
outdoor session of play.
Until a few years ago there were
only sanctioned tournaments on indoor
courts held in this city, namely, the
mems and women's national champion
ship events. Now we have the national
and metropolitan indoor junior tour
neys regularly scheduled and at the
annual meeting Of the National Asso-
citation, last week, it was announced
that two entirely new championship
tournaments had been sanctioned.
The first of these will begin on Sat-
urday, February 26, on the asphalt
courts of the New York Indoor Ten
mis- Club, in the giant arnory of the
8th Coast Artillery, Fordham Road and
Jerome Avenue, when the first annual
mems metropolitan indoor champion
ships in singles and doubles will get
under way.
Big Event at Longwood
On March z, at the 7th Regiment
Armory, the first annual women's met
ropolitan indoor champ ionships in
singles and doubles will start This
tourney will take the place of the Gus,
tomary women's national event, which
this year will be played on the indoor
courts of the Longwood Cricket Club,
at Chestnut Hill, near Boston.
On" Saturday, March Is, again at the
7th Regiment Armory, the twenty
second annual mems national indoor
championships in singles and doubles
will begin.
Thus it will be seen that within the
next SIX or seven weeks the indoor
courts are going to be pretty continu-
sously occupied, until the opening of the
southern court campaign, in fact. The
Florida championship Journeys for
women and men will start on February
Il and rs, respectively, and then come

tom Flyer; Sellers Third

Fred Murrey. Princeton's football
star, won the 500-yard special race at
the games of the Bronx Council, X. of
c., in the 22d Regiment armory last
night. The Tiger athlete came into
the stretch with great rush and beat
Jake Driscoll, Boston College, by
inches in t:01 2-5. Jack Sellers, New
York A. c., half-mle Metropolitan
champion, Was a close third.
Sellers went to the front at the gun,
with Murrey trailing. Driscoll was in
Sellers gradually pulled Driscoll out
in front, and on the third lap the pair
had tenyard lead on the balance Of
the field, which was in command of
Driscoll.
The Bostonian made his bid on the
next turn and caught Murrey, who was
then trying to pass Sellers, the leader.
Coming into the stretch Murrey sailed
past the Metropolitan champion, and
DriscoIl, with lots Of reserve, logged
the heels of the Princeton The To-
cal man faltered twenty yards from
the finish and, with Driscoll running
almost at his shoulder Murray flashed
over the line two yards in front of
Sellers.
, About $500 witnessed the race,
which marked the first victory OF the
season in fast company for Murrey.
Willie Ingham, of St. Anselm's A.
C. and g member of Bronx Council
of the Knights of Columbus, had the
distinction of winning two events. The
Bronx boy won the sixty-yard dash
handicap, closed to members of the

the line a winner of the A. A. U. 100
yard dash handicap.
