Produce Review

Movement of eggs from producing
points to large markets is normal for
this time of year. uality at present
is running very irregular, due to the
hot weather and also to the fact
that producers do not market eggs
as frequently as they should. This
is very important to insure obtain
ing top prices.
Live hens are moving well for this
season of the year, and on account of
the large number available are sell
ing on lower basis.
Young chickens are coming to the
market in increasing numbers each
week, but as there is a very good
demand, prices are steady, although
pointing to a lower level.
Butter prices have worked higher,
due to the fact there were some sales
made for export shipment. Produc-
ton has shown considerable decrease
the last ten days, on account of the
hot dry weather, but as the amount
produced has ben heavier than usual
for the year to date, it is natural to
look for normal production to con-
tinue, which should hold the mark
ct steady.

MIXING CEMENT WITH SOIL
NEW IDEA IN ROAD BUILDIN

Mixing cement with certain types
of soil to alter the characteristics Of
the soils and make them more suit
able for road surfacing and sub
grades is an experiment recently
conducted by the Bureau of Public
Roads, United States Department Of
Agriculture, which is now proving its
value in actual use. The treatment
was first suggested and tried out at
the Arglington experimental station
of the bureau. Results warranted a
field test, and it was arranged with
the California state highway depart
ment to try it on the adobe soil
there.

THE UNKNOWN HEROES
By Beatrice Beadle

+ 4 = =
Taps has been sounded and they're
all at rest
They were loved by some one who
knew them best;
They answered the call and were to
go,
Their names are lost, but each is
called a hero.
They went over the top where cour-
age was shown,
Now they are sleeping in graves un-
known.
Many a mother is watching the days,
Waiting for a son over the waves;
She cannot give up that thought of
the past,
OF loving son as she saw him last.
He fell in battle far away from home.
Now he's sleeping as one of the UNI
known.
They left their homes and all that
was dear,
They joined the colors and fought
without fear;
When duty called they were always
in line,
Ready for action and ever on time;
In thickness of battle they never
would stop,
Ready for the order, "Over the top!"
Now they are sleeping where the
flowers grow
Whom they were we shall never
know;
They joined the colors OF a nation
great,
And left lonely homes in every state.
They followed Old Glory, the flag
that we love-
Their names are missing, but their
souls are above.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.


Our children are given regular In
struction In citizenship IN school. but
the best THAT can be done for them
there viii not alone give them the
urge toward helpful service in the
community that they might have
with the thoughtful cooperation Of
their parents. The talks, songs and
pageants OF school have served to
widen their vision and strengthen
their grasp Of the dramatic events
of the past. Fathers and mothers
can help them to express their APP
probation of the time and country
in which they live in terms OF every
day service. To teach them that
they have an important part in keep
ing a happy, well-ordered home and
that the atmosphere of iths homes,
is to lay a foundation for substantial
citizenship later. To add to this a
sense of responsibility toward a
younger child in ones own family or
a friends or toward animal pets, is
at least to start the habit of consid-
ering the interests Of others. Just
to keep emphasizing these two points
day after day so that they become a
part Of the children's lives is no
small task in itself.
However eager a young person
may be to serve his community, his
impulse will be dissipated or accom-
plish harm rather than good unless
his efforts are intelligent. In Maude
Lindsays tale of 1.-The Giant Energy
and the Fairy Skill" Milton Bradley
Co., Springfield, Mass, an effective
story to read to children from five
to ten the fairy teaches the eager,
clumsy giant to so direct his bolster
GUS impulse to serve, that after days
of patient effort he is welcomed as
a helper instea of being merely toll
Grated by those generous enough to
overlook his carelessness. A ten
year-old who was crocheting a gift
for her grandmother remarked,
Even if it isn't well done grandma
Their will like it because it's my own
work" How much more wholesome
for the little girl it would have been
II someone had insisted on the
charm of offering a neatly made gift,
that grandmothers pleasure need
not be marred by apologies. Organ !
izations are too often hidnered by
the well-meaning but unskilled vol |
unteer worker. The community life
Of the future will be enriched by
every child who has learned to take
pleasure in careful, finished work.
I'VE require from buildings as

Of Venice" two kinds of goodness;

we'll, then that they be graceful and
