 Duck eggs having pure white shells are often tested as early as the fourth or fifth day, and the infer tile eggs sold to bakers.

BRITISH MAKE
 DUBLIN TOWN
 OF GRIM WAR
tBy United Prcss)

Dublin, Feb. 18.-Modern warfare was duplicated today in Dublin when the British army launched full speed into it's man-hunt
 1 To the north of the city, the British poured in detail after detail of war trained and war equipped soldiers. Armored motor cars cut across this battlefield and everywhere was heard the roar of high powered motors and the thump of gun butts against the doors of houses as the picked Tom mics spread throughout the city.
 Whoever it is being hunted by the British, Dublin is being searched thoroughly. One report said that General Michael Collins, commander of the Irish Republican army, has taken refuge in Dublin and that the British have sworn to make him prisoner. General Collins is said to be somewhere in the vicinity of Dub- lin, but no official statement was au- thorized by civil or military author ities.
 Traffic on the streets of Dublin's battlefelds is entirely suspended. Among the British arrivals were squads travelling in lorries and car rying great spools of barbed wire. Entanglements were stretched across the principal street intersections and traffic stopped or allowed to pass af- ter questioning. It was said that tbe entire city will be laid off into dis tricts and policed by soldiers unless the hunt reveals the hiding place of General Collins.

 PICKING MEN
 FOR CABINET
(By United Press)


 St. Augustine, Fla, Feb 18.-Judge Charles E. Hughes of New York, who is slated for secretary of state in the cabinet of President-elect Harding, is expected today for a conference with his future chief. He will discuss in- ternational policies with MT. Harding, so that the new administration may enter upon it's duties without delay affer March 1.
 Judge Hughes will also consider with MT. Harding the various ap- lpointments to be made in the depart ment of state and in the diplomatic service
 Although inauguration is only two weeks away, MT. Harding has made only four selections for his cabinet At that, unexpected developments may cause changes even among this four, while the other portfolios are yet without occupants.
 Four cabinet posts are causing Mr. Harding his chief worry. They are the navy, commerce, labor and the treasury. There is an increasing be- lief that A. T. Hert of Kentucky will be appointed secretary of the navy and that A. w. Mellon, the dark horse" of the cabinet prospectives, will be made secretary of the treas ury.
 MT. Harding is continuing his long series of conferences with Republican leaders. No official intimation is given as to the time when his cabinet selections will be definitely announced. Harry s. Daugherty of Indiana, his political adviser and mentioned for attorney general, is acting as spokes- man for the next president.

FARMERS ASK
 RELIEF LAWS
 BY CONGRESS
(By United Press)

Washington, Feb. 1S.-Representa- tives of 5,000,00O farmers went into conference here tooay to devise plans whereby congress can be forced to put through farmers protection program before adjournment.
 One method suggested at the confer ence was that representatives and senators friendly to agriculture be ask ed to take part in filibuster against all measures except those proposed by farmers for their own relief.
 The enactment of two measures was especially demanded by the conference, which approved the Gronna bill for the regulation of the meat packing in- dustry and the Capper-Nolstead bill to protect the cooperative movement from prosecution under the antitrust law.

The temperature stood at 34 degrees when the snow began falling, but by noon the mercury had dropped to 28
 The snowstorm was unexpected by the weather bureau, fair weather hav- ing been predicted for today. For to- night and Saturday cloudy weather with local rains is forecast.
 Fear is felt if the snow is followed by colder weather, as usually occurs, that the fruit crop in this section will again be killed. Peach and other fruit trees in many parts of the coun- ty have already begun to bloom, due to the long period of unusually mild weather. Should the temperature drop below 20 degrees it is probable that most of the fruit prospects would be destroyed,
