Death was said to have resulted
from pernicious anaemia, a second
attack Of this illness occurring last
April. Since then two physicians have
been in constant attendance on the
former minister, and several times II
was announced that he was not ex-
pected to live more rnan a few hours.
Blood transfusions were resorted to
on three occasions, after which the
patient showed some Improvement.
Another relapse occurred during the
extreme hot weather a few weeks ago.

rank of major general soon after the

devoted his energies to turning over
Canada's resources in men and sup

victory. In 1915 Sir Sam went to

DIFFERENT COLORS OF EGGS
Does Not Affect Nutritive Value, Ae-
eording to Extended lnVestiga-
tons by Experts.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
mo, don't want whites helled eggs.
l don't think they are as good as the
brown-shelled," one frequently hears a
housekeeper remark. Or just as often
1t is, Il want white-shelled eggs. we
don't care for those with brown Shells"
Each group is confident they are in the
right, but extended Investigations made
at some of the agricultural experiment
stations, in which many analyses we're
made of eggs from different kinds Of
hens, have shown plainly that there
are no uniform variations in the physi-
cal properties and chemical compost
ton of brown-shelled as compared with
white-shelled eggs. Such tests justify
the statement that the eggs of any
given breed of hens, whatever the color
of the shells, are, on an average, as
nutritious as those of another breed,
provided the eggs are of the same size
and freshness and the fowls are equal
ly well fed, say specialists of the Uni
ted States Department Of Agriculture.
The color of the shells, whatever its
reason, is feature which has some eff
feet on the market value Of eggs of do
nestle poultry, although not upon their
food value, the brown-shelled eggs
bringing the higher price, for instance,
in the Boston market, and the white
shelled eggs in the New York market.
In England the preference is decidedly
in favor of the tinted eggs. Such local
differences probably originated in the
fact that some one breed of hens was
once chiefly used in given region and
Its type of eggs set the standard there.
The color of the egg content Is also
a matter of interest with respect to
market value and domestic uses. Raw
egg white has more or less greenish
tinge, which is apparently influenced
somewhat by the character of the feed,
though no specific coloring matter has
been isolated from it. When the albu-
men is coagulated by heat in cooking
the color varies from white to pale
greenish or yellowish tones, hard to de-
fine, yet distinct. There is a belief that
eggs with shells of the same color
should show the same color In the
cooked whites and that the cooked al
bumen of whlte-shelled eggs Is decid-
eddy whittier than that Of eggs with
tinted shells.
Perhaps few persons carry prefer
ences so far as to refuse an egg be-
cause of the color of the white, yet it

BETTER QUALITY OF POULTRY
Platte County (Neb.) Farmer Lists
Chickens, Geese and Ducks, All
Purebred.

A noticeable feature of the Better
Sires" campaign conducted by the vari-
Gus states and the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture is the excel
lent quality of poultry kept on general
farms. Typical of this condition is a
statement recently received from a
farm in Platte county, Nebraska. The
principal live stock kept were Short
horn cattle and Poland China swine
In addition the owner listed the fol-
lowing poultry, all Of which was
standard bred: Seventy-five Barred
Plymouth Rocks, rs Black Langshans,
100 Brown LeghOrnS, 100 Rhode Island
Reds, three White China geese and
three Pekin ducks. 1t was noteworthy
that, whereas the poultry was all of
pure breeding, the swine herd includ-
ed a number of grade females. The
sires kept for all classes of stock were
of pure breeding-a requirement for
enrolment in the Better Sires-Better
Stock" campaign.

NEW DEVICE CLEANS GRAINS
Recently Invented Continuance Re-
moves Smut, Dust, Etc, at the
Time Of Thrashing.

A new device known as an aspirator
has been designed by specialists of the
bureau of markets, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, for cleaning
wheat and other small grains by re-
moving smut, dust, and dockage at the
time of thrashing. This device is at
tached to the grain delivery spout, and
tests indicate that 1t removes approx
mately one-third of what ordinarily is
cassed as dockage. The use of this
device will enable farmers to keep for
feed part of the seeds and other for
eign material ordinarily hauled to the
elevator and lost to the producer; it
also improves the quality of grain by
removing from 1t large part of the
smut dust and Objectionable foreign
material. A recleaner, for attachment
to the deck of thrashing machines, al
so designed, gives promise of being eff
ficlent, it is said

Neither Size, Shape Nor Color Enters
Into Food Value Of an Egg.

Is stated on good authority that in
high-class hotels and restaurants,
where great attention is paid to details,
it has been found that the boiled eggs
served must match in color. If when
taken from the shell one is greenish
white and the other clear white the
eggs are often rejected on the ground
that one of them is not of the required
standard of excellence.
The egg yolk owes its characteristic
yellow color to a pigment whose chem
ical nature has been carefully studied.
The depth of the yellow color appar-
emily depends-in large measure, at
least-upon the presence of green feed
in the ration, and pale-cOlored yolks in
dictate that such feed is deficient.
Though frequently the yolk is pale, the
color which we commonly regard as q
standard Is a decided yellow, and so
the pale-yolked eggs are often said by
houSekeepers to be inferior, as q given
number of such yOlks impaft to cake
or custard less Of the yellow color re-
garded as an indication of richness
than do eggs of a darker yolk, belief
which chemical analysis does not
justify.
Although, as stated above, variations
In color do not imply variations in food
value, 1t is not at all unlikely that
there are differences in flavor CORE
spending to the color of the egg yolk,
that which is deep yellow having a
more pronounced flavor than the pale
one. At any rate, as long as prefer
ence for deep-colored yolks and pale
whites exists the poultry raiser who
caters to fancy market should take
such factors into account.

the standardization of practically the
entire Bermuda onion industry in the
United States.
United States grades for Bermuda
onions were recommended by the De-
partment of Agriculture in the spring
of 1918. The same year the state Of
Texas legislated the compulsory grad
ing Of Bermuda onions according to the
grades promulgated by the department
and adopted by the Texas state depart
ment of agriculture.
When the onion shippers in the Goa
chella valley requested inspection serv-
ice from the California state depart
ment of agriculture in 1921, the depart
ment indicated that 1t would be i'm
practicable to render such service I'M
less suitable grades were agreed upon
as basis for inspection. Accordingly,
the shippers made a comprehensive
study OF onion grades and decided
finally to use the grades recommended
by the Department of Agriculture. Per-
haps the most important consideration
leading to this decision was the fact
that since the adoption of the depart
ment's grades in Texas there has been
q considerable decrease in the number
of rejected Texas onion shipments.
