for the white egg demand Is l.. r.
BycE, father of the Petaluma poultry
industry. Mr.. ByoE. New Eng
lander, went to California and saw
an opportunity to control the egg
business of the West. He deliber.
ately created a demand for white
eggs. using Leghorns and Minorcas
because they were prolific layers. II
was not long before he had follow
ing, and to-day California eggs are
q factor in the New York market.
The poultry farmers Of New Jersey,
which produces most of the white
eggs sold In tho Eastern markets,
took leaf out of Mr.. BYoE's book,
and to-day their eggs command a
premium over those from California
because they can be put on the mar
ket In from twenty-four to forty
eight hours after they are laid.
There will be much interest In the

Baseball's Future.
Real Fans VIII Not Let Mere Work
Keen Them From the Diamond.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Ban
johnson, president OF the American
League, has taken some Of the festive
spirit out Of the Christmas season TOT
some persons with his pessimistic pre-
diction that there are dark days ahead
for professional baseball.
1t strikes me as being unsound to pre-
dict that the resumption in activities In
other industries will mean lack Of pros
perity for baseball, but Ban johnson
has been bold enough to make euch
prophecy, his opinion being based on
the belief that when men are busy with
something else they will not be able to
find time to watch baseball games. But
real baseball fan will make time In
order to be on hand when the umpire
calls play ballw
The president OF the American League
also takes q fling at magnates who pay
inflated prices for minor league players.
Obviously he has overlooked the i'm
portant fact that prices are regulated
by the law OF supply and demand and
that It is not high finance" to pay
large prices for ball players who appear
able to perform to the major league
standard. It Is sound business to buy
one such player rather than six who ulti-
matelv prove incompetent. FAN.

Music by Wireless.

Persons who ride on ether waves
must take precautions not to rock
the boat. Music by wireless has
charm when conflicting vibrations
are kept apart. Recently Strauss
music was transmitted to receiving
station in New York where soloist
was to accompany it. The guests, in
Guiding RICHARD STRAUSS himself,
waited expectantly.
But the transmission was badly
timed. Instead of the sober melodies
expected the ragtime of another sub
scriber came from the transmitter.
The embarrassment of the wireless
operator can easily be imagined.
Perhaps music transmission by
wireless will be so perfected that
churches will subscribe for their
Handel and Bach, to be delivered
much as stock quotations are sup
piled by the ticker. Dance halls in
the same way may receive their rag
and jazz from the ether.
The mishap of the Strauss melo-
dies. though, could be disastrous on a
larger scale. A church might invite
a special accompanist for the wire
less music. Imagine the confusion
should the wireless waves bring in
"Beery Breezes" instead of the Bach
oratorio expected!

Ideal Americans.

Men who as schoolboys used to re-
cite "The Seminole's Reply" will be
glad to hear that the people of Osce'
ola who stayed in Florida are get
ting along nicely in everything but
numbers. The Government has just
issued a report from the Florida
Seminole Agency which shows that
while only 45o of the Indians re-
main in the Everglades they make
up in goodness what they lack in
population.
The Seminoles have their own un.
written code, which is enforced by a
headman. The laws are "just and
inflexible and II one is violated the
erring one accepts the penalty, even
though it be death itself, without a
protest" The laws of tho State and
nation are never broken except
through ignorance. and mo second
case of violation has even been re.
corded" The lawbreaker takes the
news of the law back to his tribe
when the white Judge has explained
It to him.
Special Commissioner SPENCER
AYERS in this report that probably
no people on earth have a higher
standard of morality than the Florida
Seminoles, and 1t is not a single
standard" Marriages are contracted
Indian style, but they are binding
much more 80, says Mr.. SPENCER
than legal marriages among white
people. In their domestic life the
Seminoles are unlike other Indian
tribes. Women are kindly treated
"and their wishes control family
policy" The children behave we'll

Greenwich Village Bohemians may
be peeved to know that the Semi
noles started the dual home stuff

says the report, "and the husband
has his, and they occupy their re

arate house." AS soon as child is

Bridging the Delaware.

Philadelphia and her vigorous Sis
ter, Camden, across the Delaware
River. are to unite in an important
ceremony on January 6. Swinging
silver plated pickaxes, the Mayors OF
the two cities will begin the demoli-
tion OF the pier at the foot of Vine
street where will be the concrete and
granite base of one Of the lofty tow.
ers from which one of the most
imposing bridges in the world will
swing over the Delaware.
The event is worthy OF the cele-
brations planned by the two cities
and the two States to commemorate
it. The bridge promises to be great
triumph of engineering. for one thing,
and. for another, 1t will be link be-
tween two important municipalities
and between two great States.
The possibilities Of Industrial and
commercial expansion on both sides
Of the river are OF very great in
terest. There is not a bit Of doubt
that the creative forces which the
swinging of the silver plated pick
axes will set in motion will be con-
tinued with characteristic cumulative
American energy until, in 1926, Phila-
delphia will be able to point with
pride to the vast structure, soaring
airily high over the Delaware, as one

Chickens of q New Kind.

Visitors to the Madison Square Gar
den Poultry Show, which will be
open from January 25 to January 30,
will see q new strain of poultry
which has been developed after many
years of experiments at the Federal
farm at Beltsville, Maryland. Special
excellence in egg and meat produc-
ton is claimed for it.
The family was evolved by HARRY
NJ. LAMoN, who is in charge Of poul-
try investigation for the Bureau Of
Animal Industry, and the new type
has been named Lamona In his honor.
Mr.. Lannon'S aim was to produce a
white plumaged bird which should
have yellow skin, yellow legs, red
ear lobes and four toes, and which
In addition should lay white eggs.
other experts said 1t could not be
done, as all existing red ear lobed
birds laid brown or tinted eggs, as
they are called in the trade. The
new family has become so well es-
tablished, however, that It breeds
true to type, and It is hoped to work
out a plan by which specimens may
he placed at the disposal of the gen.
eral public. The Lamona fs repre-
sented to possess superior qualities
not only as an egg layer but as q
meat producer, the birds having great
development of breast, SO much SO
that they may be recognized at a
glance among other birds after being
killed and plucked.
Mr.. LAMQN, who is vicepresident
Of the Madison Square Garden Poul.
try Show, began his experiments with
the new type in 1912 by mating the
silver gray Dorking. which is a five
toed bird, with the white Plymouth
Rock. The next year he mated the
silver gray Dorking with single comb
white Leghorns, the latter white
lobed bird noted for egg productivity
but SO light in body as to possess
little value for the table. The off.
spring of these matings were then
blended. The outcome was the La
mona, whose egg laying qualities are
accredited to the white Leghorn
while its plumpness is attributed to
the influence OF the well built silver
gray Dorking.
Just why there should be prefer
ence for white eggs and prejudice
against brown eggs In some mar
kets It is difficult TO understand.
The situation exists in the Now York
market and in other cities as well.
Boston prefers brown eggs, and can
not understand why eggs Of that
color are not as highly regarded as
white eggs in New York.

HARVARD ORCHESTRA HEARD
Performs Sound Orchestral Music
Cxeditably.


C-editably.
The Harvard University Orchestra
gave its first concert In this city In
Carnegie Hall last evening. This or
ganixation Is an outgrowth Of the Pier
Ian Sodaiity. which dates from 1908.
None Of those 'oe fellows are playing In
the new orchestra, which Ia composed
Of undergraduates. Harvard not long
ago formed q chorus, which undertook
the commendable task Of ctltivattng
among tho students a taste for the mu-
sic OF Palestrina and other fathers Of
a capella art. Tho chorus was q great
success. It went to Paris last summer
and was much praised.
But an orchestra Is a different affair.
It Is not 80 easy to develop a body OF
instrumental performers, and what tho
young gentlemen did last evening was
laudable as an effort In q good direc-
ton rather than as an achievement.
The numbers played by the orchestra
were Mendetssohn's "Ffngars Cave"

I. II. Rosenberg played the violin solo

Brown. cellist, and Clair Leonard. or
ganist, were also heard. Miss Imosen
Peay, pianist. assisted, and Walter Pis-
ton conducted. Nine. Helen Stanley d.
versified the entertainment with va
riety of songs. lending to the concert q
necessary flavor Of professional excel
lence.
Naturally tho orchestra betrayed the
comrnonest Of weaknesses round in am
ateur organizations. namely. bad In
tonation. That was to be expected. As
to the attack the opinion Of one Haugh-
ton might have been valuable. while a
certain Storrow could have said some
thing about the precision and unanin1-
ity. But the spectacle of a body OF uni
versity undergraduates performing
sound orchestral music instead of
twanging banjos or plucking mandolins
in the familiar mechanical style was
pleasing. The Harvard move is a good
one and deserves encouragement.

tion of policy. The Nationalists
know now what they can expect
from Great Britain, and they know
too the reasons for the British stand.
They know that the Suez Canal must
be protected as most important
link of the Empire. that the British
Government holds that Egypt itself
is not yet in a position to take
over a sovereign rule and that Great
Britain cannot risk the country's
passing into the control Of any other
Power.
The extremists set out to make the
most of the failure Of the nego-
tiations. SAm ZAGLUL Is shrewd
politician and he knows better per.
haps than any other of the Egyptian
extremists how to win the support
of tho people. His followers began
an agitation which resulted in riots
IN the native quarters Of Cairo and
the Intervention of British military
and naval forces. This was one
thing sought by ZAGLuL, for I. af-
forded him an opportunity to de-
nounce the military rule as oppres-
sive and to assume the role Of a
national hero and martyr.
The one saving grace for Great
Britain in the present situation is
that ZAaLUL Is more or less dis
credited by his party and that
there is no chance for union be-
tween him and the moderate Nation
alists. In this way ABLY Pasha has
still an opportunity for constructive
work among the Nationalists and for
bringing together all the conservative
Egyptian elements. 1t would appear
that with the restoration of negotia-
tions between Great Britain and
Egypt concessions which will secure
British aims and at the same time
give to Egypt promise Of future In
dependence from military occupation
may be brought about. II this can
be effected the zaglulites' agitation
will lose It's force and tho tensity OF
the situation be relieved.

Cutting Down City Jobs.
Suggestions of Citizen to the New
York Charter Commission.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: Now that
a new charter for New York city is un-
der discussion It may not be azniss for
an ordinary citizen to put in q word OF
offer q suggestion.
We already have entirely too many
boards. bureaus commissions. depart
ments In our city government There Ii
no question but what some OF these
could be abolished and others consoli-
dated. To abolish one department In or
der to create another carrying with Il a
multitude Of easy Jobs for political work
ers Is no economy.
Taken as a whole tho reoonmenda-
tions recently submitted to the New
York Charter Commission seem to be
for the good OF the people. For IN
stance. the abolition of the Tenement
House Department and the delegation of
It's functions to another department
such as tho Department Of Buildings or
the Department of Health. would mean
great saving In money and decided
relief to the property owner who is fire.
quently served with conflicting orders
from different departments. Years ago
before the act of consolidation. when
the Department Of Health had charge of
both the new and the old work. THE
abuse never happened. All orders were
consistent, easily interpreted and not
difficult to comply with.
The Board of Water Supply, special
but temporary creation of our State
Legislature to construct the new Catskill
aqueduct, should also go. Its duties
could be taken over by the Department
of Water Supply. Gas and Electricity.
which eventually will have jurisdiction
over all our city water works. Abolition
of the Board OF Water Supply has been
advocated on more than one occasion
but It has never been brought about.
And last but not least comes that use
less and costly incubus, the Aldermanic
Board What wouldn't we give to get
rid Of it, or to reduce its number down
to a mere skeleton!

The Farmers Situation.
A Great Surplus Of Corn and De
creased Consumption Of Beef.

To TIE NEW YORK HERALD: In dis
cussing the corn situation 1t should be
borne IN mind that for the first time in
our history the United States has pro-
duced two three billion bushel corn
crops In succession. President J. r.
Howard of the American Farm Bureau
Federation estimates the surplus at $40, :
600. 900 bushels. This vast total, in
view OF the fact that much less beef
II being produced than normally. seems
to make it prudent for farmers to plan
a substantial reduction of corn planting
next year IN order to avoid even more
serious financial conditions than they
now have.
The average annual yield for the five
years from 1918 to 1919 was 2,es7.62b
bushels. With the reduced production
of beef It Is not out Of reason to claim
that we have surplus amounting to
% per cent. of an average crop. A GER
tain reduction OF acreage Is inevitable.
During the war most OF the middle West
farmers plowed up pastures which had
been In grass for many years in order
to grow corn and other grains. A re-
turn of some of the corn land to grass
has already been made since the high
point of corn planting IN 1917, and q
still further reduction may be expected.
Tho utilization OF the corn surplus Is
one of the most serious problems which
the farmers of America have ever had
to contend with. The market of the
corn crop is by way Of animals and

corn belt farmers will undoubtedly feed
larger quantities than last year to hogs
but as yet they are somewhat timid
about increasing beef production on ac-
count of the Losses which they have suf-
fered recently in this business.
These two facts. however. present
some light on the problem. As long as
our export trade in pork products keeps
up farmers are safe In feeding corn to
hogs. Tho domestic consumption OF
pork production became normal in 1920
Any surplus Of pork produced mus'
therefore fnd its market abroad.

The Situation in Egypt.

The outstanding native personages
in the present Egyptian situation are
ABLY Pasha. who resigned the Egyp-
tian Premiership upon the failure OF
his mission to England, and SAID
ZAGLUL Pasha, the leader OF the
Zaglulites, the largest Of the ex-
tremist parties Of the country. who
was recently removed from Cairo be-
cause he refused to obey the orders
of the military authorities and to
cease political agitation. ABLY Pasha
as the chief exponent Of the mod
crate Nationalist opinion sought a
friendly understanding with Great
Britain, but SAID ZAGLUL's purpose
was to force Egypt into open opposi-
ton to British rule by campaign of
boycott and strikes and by series
OF organized disturbances which
would bring about active repressive
measures by the British military
authorities.
The negotiations which were pend
ing for some time between the British
Government and Egyptian represen-
tatives failed because ABLY Pasha re
fused to accept the conventions
suggested by the British Government.
He did not regard them as giving to
Egypt the degree of independence
which the country should have. The
clause to which he especially OBJ
jected was that which provided that
British forces should have free pas.
sage through Egypt and should be
maintained at such places in Egypt
and for such periods as should from
time to time be determined. AS
ABLY Pasha expressed It, this clause
destroys independence and sup
presses even internal sovereignty"
While ABLY Pasha failed to secure
concession on this point he obtained
from the British Government what
no other Egyptian official had sc
cured. a clear and definite declara
