BEST EXPLAINED BY CHAIR :
MAN BEN w. HOOPER OF
THE UNITED STATES RAIL
ROAD LABOR BOARD IN HIS
STATEMENT OF JULY 1ST,
READING AS FOLLOWS:
"In this case the conflict is not
between the employer and the
oppressed employees. The peo-
pie of this country, through ar
act of congress, signed by Pres
ident Wilson, established a tr1-
bunal to decide such disputes
over wages and working condf-
: tions, which are submitted to 1t
in a proper manner. 1t Is the
decision of this tribunal against
which the shop crafts are strik-
Ing.
Regardless of any question of
the right of the men to strike,
the men who take the strikers
places are merely accepting the
wages and working conditions
prescribed by government tr1-
bunal and are performing a pub
lie service. They are not accept
ing the wages and working con-
dtt1ons which an employer is
trying to impose. For this reas
on public sentiment and full
government power will protect
the men who remain in their
positions and new men who may
come in"
Adequate provisions have been
made for the full protection of
all new employees, the same as
old employees who have remain
ed loyalty at work. Applicants
should apply to the office of the
superintendent at Portland (Un-
ion station) or to the assist
ant superintendent at Roseburg.

By LAURA A. KIRKMAN.

cloth which has been dipped In
cold vinegar. If the vinegar will
not clean them, co not try to use
the eggs. 1t Is also best to secure
eggs that are not fertile--but few
OF MS are able to observe this pre-
caution.
The Water Glass Method: The
name water glass is a simple and
moro easily remembered substitute
for the technical term Sodium sill
cate" This substitute may be
bought at any drug store. To pre-
serve seven dozen eggs. you will
need one pint of the water glass"
and four and one-half quarts of
water. Bring this amount of wa
ter to boil. then pour it into a
three-gallon crock (Which you
have previously scalded out with
boiling water and wiped dry) and
let the hot water stand in this
clean crock until 1t is cold. Now
add to it the pint of water glass"
stir well, and place the eggs in this
liquid. The liquid must stand two
inches above the eggs. Cover air.
tight to prevent evaporation, and
place the crock in your preserving
closet-or in any cool, dry place.
The Lime-Water Method: Bring
five gallons of water to boil and
let 1t stand until cold. Then add
to 1t 8 pounds Of unslaked lime and
let stand until the water is clear.
Pour this solution over the eggs,
which you have put into crooks
cleansed as above directed (wash-
cd out with boiling water), taking
care to let the liquid rise above
the eggs two inches. Cover the
crooks tightly, and store them in
a cool, dry place. Of your family
IS small, you hac better. divide this
formula in haiti
Although both these methods
will preserve eggs satisfactorily, l
personally prefer the water glass
method to the lime-water method.
For, occasionally-not often-eggs
preserved by the lime-water meth
cd have slight taste of lime
about them when served.
By either method, the pre-
served eggs should keep perfectly
for at least eight months; and
many housekeepers have written
me that they have kept their eggs
even a year with perfect results
using both these methods.
| wish to advise brides and 9TH
err young housekeepers to take
thought for the morrow" in regard
to this subject. Although it may
be a slight strain now on their
pOcketbooks to buy few dozen
eggs more than they used to use at
the present moment, still they will
find that those eggs come in very
handy next November, at Thanks
giving time, or around Christmas
