New Facts
About
Bunker Hill
=,,eAa4
- SSsH.=S-ssySse..

There are many odd as well as I'M
familiar facts in regard to the battle
OF Bunker Hill, the "dawn of the RevO-
luton" fought June II, 17T5.
II is a curious fact, writes Alexander
Cofett in the Boston Globe, that Ges.
Arthmas Ward, American commander
In caief, did not believe the erection
of the redoubt would spur the British
to attack the hill, but feared and pre-
pared for a retaliatory attack on the
American camp in Cambridge.
And the 1000 or more provincials
who built the redOubt during the night
of June 16 had no idea that after
sleepless night and nearly 70 hours
/ labor of the hardest kind with not a
/ drop of water within hale a mile, they
would be called upon to fight one of
tie memorable battles in history.
They had been promised that fresh
troops would relieve them the morn
ing of the nth. Deep was their con
sternation when, hungry, thirsty and
sleepy, and While the British were pre-
pairing to cross the river, Colonel Pres
colt, their commander on being asked
to send to Cambridge for the fresh
troops for their relief, coolly replied
mo, boys, only those who built tie
redoubt shall have the honor of de-
Tending it,"
1t was a wonderful proof of the
farmer colonel's influence over his
farmer heroes that they accepted his
dictum without a murmur and pre-
pared for the reception of the enemy /
Hundreds of redcoats had deserted |

preceding the battle of Bunker Hill, /

their stand.

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,
1t 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 a
standard is a decided yellow, and so
the pale-yolked eggs are often said by
housekeepers to be inferior, as a given
number of such yolks impart to a cake
or custard less of the yellow color re-
garded as an indication of richness
than do eggs of darker yolk, a belief
which chemical analysis does not
justify.
Although, as stated above, variations
in color do not imply variations in food
value, it 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 q
more pronounced flavor than the pale
one. At any rate, as long as prefer
ence for deep-coiored yolks and pale
whites exists the poultry raiser who

such factors into account.
