POULTRY MAN rs
CONVINCED EGG
TESTER Is BUNK

T. NJ. Harder, Twenty-first street,
told The Argus today that there
is nothing to the egg tester which
has been promiscuous1y circulated
among Rock Island poultry men.
claiming to tell whether the egg
contains a potential hen or roost-
er. Picture of the machine was
reproduced yesterday.
The "sexometer'', it is called and
if the egg is male. the indicator is
supposed to swing in a circle; if
it is female. the indicator is sup
posed to swing back and forth.
The shaking of ones hand causes
the cork to move and Mr.. Harder
said when several men held it it
did move. Then it was given to
girl. Evidently she had steadier
nerves than the men and it didn't
move at all. Some one else used
it on rag doll and the indicator
proved the doll to be boy.

JUDGE SEEKING
FARM HOME FOR
GLENWOOD BOY

Two boys, both IA years OF age,
faced Judge r. j. Landee in county
court yesterday afternoon. They
had deserted the Glenwood school
for boys. II was for the judge to
decide whether or not they should
be returned
The boys didn't want to go back
They pleaded for chance in the
outside world. One had been COM
mitted to the school from Rock. Is
land. His relatives told the court
they would provide home for him
The other was from Waukegan. He
had accompanied the other to Rock
Island for lack OF some other place
to go. His parents were dead and
he has no kin to his knowledge.
Now this youngster was fine,
manly in appearance. He impress
ed the Judge with his plea to find
him a home. Instead of being re-
turned to Gienwood, he had been
placed temporarily in Rock Island
In the meantime the Judge will az
tempt to find the boy a permanent
home on some farm where he can
earn his keep and receive an edu-
cation.
Anyone who would like to mother
and father the orphan should com
municate with Judge Landee. He
says no one can help but feel the
kindest sentiment towards lad Of
such fine appearance.

EGG SHIPPERS
MAY ORGANIZE
Cooperative Association Result of
~ Visit by State Poultry
sA Expert.

Egg shippers of Rock Island
county will probably organize a CO.
operative association as the result
of a coming visit Of E. T. Murphy,
Chicago, head of the egg and poul-
Ftry market department of the Illi-
nois Agricultural association.
MIR. Murphy will be in Port By
ron Tuesday, March %, and Taylor
Ridge Wednesday, March 20. At
both places he will give demon
STATIONS of how eggs should be
candled, graded and packed for
shipment TO the Chicago market.
Five cases of eggs, each case
containing 80 dozen, will be pro-
vided by Rock Island county poul-
try raisers for his use in the dem
onstrations.
If 20 cases a day can be offered
for shipment at one or more points
in the county a cooperative asso-
citation will be formed with a paid
manager. Mr.. Murphy will also
demonstrate the correct method of
shipping poultry, which is a much
simpler process than preparing
eggs for the market.

ADVERTISES FOR
WIFE; TROUBLES
AIRED IN COURT

About five years ago. Otto Yea
ger decided that so-called bachelor
bliss was all wrong.
Therefore Otto resorted to the
classified columns to find himself a
wife. He received 35 replies. 1t
was serious business with Otto. He
was not carried away by the prOtes-
tations of love from his unknown
admirers. Finally he made his Sec
ond great decision.
Proudly, Otto carried his bride
away to the country and farm life.
But he reckoned not with the I'M
certainty of a woman's heart. 1t
was not long before Mrs. Yeager
made it known to him that life in
the rural sections was not suited to
her ideas of living. She longed for
the glamour of the city again, so one
day Otto awoke to find himself
without helpmate.
Mrs. Yeager soon had him in
court for non-support. There was
a reconciliation, and once again the
couple went back to the farm.
Echoes of the first arrest were
heard in the county court again to-
day Once more Otto was back as
the defendant and Mrs. Yeager &C.
cupied the role of plaintiff. He was
Withholding support because she
would not live in the country, she
declared. She told the court she
would return to him IL Otto agreed
to quit the farm and secure employ
ment in the city. The court decid-
ed that Otto had a right to work
where he pleases and that it is UP
to Mrs. Yeager to go wherever he
establishes the home. She said:
"Neveri"
The case was continued and Otto
told to go back to the farm il he
wishes. On the way out of the
court house, Mrs. Yeager seized
Otto by the coat tail and gave him
somewhat of a shaking up. Otto
back to the court room to
tell the judge that "She is trying to
destroy the peace with me-"

SWEDISH WOMEN
SELDOM USE NEW
FRANCHISE RIGHT

Stockholm.-Less than half of the
women of Sweden entitled to vote
exercised their newly-won fran
chise rights at the polls in the cleo
tions of 1921, the first year of full
suffrage for women. according to
a report of the Swedish central bu-
reau of statistics just made public.
However. the official report of the
1921 elections give the suffragist
leaders at least two causes for re-
joicing.
The men did not show a much
better record than the women, and
the number of women voters ex-
ceeded the male voters in the cap
ital of Stockholm by more than
5000 voters.
The official report shows that
All per cent of the Swedish wom-
en- voters cast their ballot while
Gig per cent of the men voted. The
total women's vote in the city of
Stockholm was 1856, while the
vote cast by men was 71,198.
The general impression through
out the country seems to be that
the Swedish women have not fully
realized the importance and sig
nltlcance of their new privilege. 1t
is believed that in the future thew
will make a better showing at the
polls.
The heavy women's vote in Stock
holm, which is to a large extent an
industrial city, may indicate that
the working women, especially
women trade union members, grasp
ed the opportunity to register their
votes However. other women can
not be said to have neglected the
ballot as a whole.
