A shoebox and a Lamp Will Do for
 Candling Eggs.

A Shoebox and Lamp Will Do for
 candIing Eggs.
 candescent bulb, or f1ashlight can be used. If you are using a box and a hand lamp the box should have a hole at the top, otherwise the heat from the top of the chimney would set the box on fire. A tester chimney made of tin, such as is used on a lamp for testing eggs in incubators, may be used for candling, in which case you would not need the box, as the eggs are tested by means of a hole in the side of the tin.
 A perfectly good, fresh egg shows ''full'' and "clear" before the light. There is almost no air cell at the large end and the yolk outline is only faintly visible. A fixed air cell of one-eighth to three-sixteenths of an inch in depth Indicates fresh egg, as eggs run gen. orally. A larger air cell with a mov- able lower line icates-according to sizes and f1uctuations-a stale egg or one becoming weak and watery. Very small dark spots sometimes seen usually are blood clots. Large dark spots. blood rings, and shadows are due to heat and germination, and in-

dicate first stages of decay. An egg that appears very dark or black, ex- cept for a large fixed air cell, con- tains a chick at an advanced stage of incubation.
 Fresh eggs, properly preserved, may be kept from six to ten months and be almost as good for household purposes as fresh eggs. Another req son for preserving eggs in water glass, for instance, Is the fact that they do not acquire the objectionable "cold- storage taste"
 Allow Three Dozen to Gallon,
 To preserve 15 dozen eggs in wa ter glass these directions are given by the specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture:
 Select a fve-gallon earthen crock, clean it thoroughly. scald, and allow it to dry. Heat ten to twelve quarts of water to the boiling point, and al- low it to cool. When the water is cool, measure out nine quarts, put in- to the crock, and add one quart of sodium silicate, commonly called wa ter glass, which can be bought at any drug store. Stir we'll so that the so- luti0n becomes thoroughly mixed
 The solution thus prepared is ready for the eggs, which may be put in all at once, or from time to time as they are Obtainable. Care should be taken in putting them into the jar not to crack or break the shells; also be sure the solution covers the eggs at all times. Put the crock containing the preserved eggs in a cool, dry place, and cover with a tight lid or waxed paper to prevent evaporation.
 To preserve smaller or larger number of eggs. the solution should be mixed and prepared in the same proportions.
 Use Only Clean Fresh Eggs.
 If best results are to be obtained the eggs should be clean and fresh, and preferably infertile. For this req son it is always best when possible to candle the eggs carefully before pre- serving them unless they are known to be strictly fresh. If an egg is only slightly soiled a cloth dampened with vinegar may be used to remove stains, but eggs should never be washed with water or soap and water, as water removes the protective coating on the shell and may tend to cause the con- tents to spoil. Never use badly-soiled or cracked eggs. They may spoil all the others.
 Fresh eggs preserved according to these directions usually will keep for from six to ten months, and can be used satisfactorily for cooking and for the table. If, however, preserved eggs are to be boiled, a small hole should be made with pin in the larger end of the shell before placing them in the water, to allow the air in the egg to escape when heated, and thus prevent

Crop Reduction Forecast.

WashingtOn.-Forecasts of the eoun- try's principal farm crops, made by the Department of Agriculture from their July 1 condition, indicate there will be no recOrd-breaking production in any crop, with the possible exeep- tion of corn.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never
 Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
 Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success.
 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as- tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re jected is because kidney trouble is 60 common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica- tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease.
 Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes. medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Bingham ton, N. Y, for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.

victims would probably die from the
cruelties they had suffered. "The
ferocity of the pogrom can be partly

"ETHICS OF THE FATHERS."

On the first Sabbath after Pass
over it is customary to begin reading
the first of the six chapters of Aboth
(The Fathers), which, because of
their ethical and moral nature are
known as the "Ethics of the Fathers"
1t is doubtful whether so much of
good common sense, popular philoso-
ply and ethics, with incentive to right
living and thinking can be found con-
densed in such short compass, as in
these six chapters. The custom of
reading Chapter" or "Perek" every
Sabbath afternoon is we'll worth re-
Stunning, at least some time during the
twenty-four hours of the Sabbath.
With surprisingly little effort the av-
erage intelligent reader can grasp
the meaning of almost every sentence

Of Jewish literature to spend an hour
than to peruse this ancient yet mod

HORRIBLE POGROM IN WHITE
RUSSIA.

Report of pogrom in the province
of Gomel, White Russia, whose known
living victims number over $4,000 and
whose dead are estimated at several
thousand, has just been received by
the Joint Distribution committee
from it's American Jewish relief d.
rector at Reval.
DR.. Frank Rosenblatt, who returned
recently from directing Jewish relief
work in Russia for the committee and
who gave out the cable, character
lied the pogrom as the most horrible
perpetrated in late years. This most
recent .anti-Jewish outbreak, as we'll
as the others committed in the last
few months in White Russia, are the
acts of bands of peasant bandits, &C
cording to Dr. Rosenblatt.
