and curls upon the back of one
of the hogs. The hog furnishes
ample heat without any labor or

he gets warmed up, he returns to
his outdoor sports. AT night he

NEW YORK. March 6-Denouncing
the New York Stock Exchange for
opposing regulative legislation
framed by the Lockwood committee,
District Attorney Banton yesterday
declared he failed to understand why
it wishes to align itself on the side
Of this crowd of thieves who have
stolen $500 1000, 900 since the war"
The district attorney pointed out
that in fourteen months 154 brokers
had failed for $1o0.00o,oO0, with
$40, 100000 in assets. and that regula-
tion of the brokerage business was
necessary to protect the investing
public.
The regulative legislation proposed.
he said, would put the licensing and
supervision Of brokers in the hands
OF the state superintendent of banks
but the stock exchange had openly
opposed the measure as an amazing
plan"
1t is enough to state that this
amazing plan applies to bankers
banks, trust companies savings
banks and like business of high
character" he said. During the same
period these brokers failed not a
single bank or banker failed, and

Eggs-How to Can Them.

At this time Of the year, eggs
are usually quite low in price and
the markets well filed, for that
reason it is the time to preserve
them for winter use. In saving
eggs for winter use, you are avail
ing yourself of one Of natures
richest Storehouses. They contain
50 much Of fuel, energy and tissue
building materials that they are
almost a perfect food in them
selves.
Rules to follow in preserving
eggs in water-glass include the
following:
Preserve only absolutely fresh,
infertile eggs if you want them to
keep well.
DO not preserve dirty eggs or
eggs which have been washed, for
washing removes the mucilagm-
Gus covering from the shell.
Use earthen vessels-two eight
gallon jars hold 30 dozen eggs.
Galvanized iron containers may be
used, but are not recommended.
All vessels used should be well
sterihzed by placing in boiling
water.
Pour the well mixed water
glass over the eggs, so as to over
them at least two inches. Cover
the Jars tightly to prevent evap-
Grafton. Keep the jars containing
the eggs in a cool place.
TO mix the water glass solution,
heat the amount Of water to be
used to the boiling point, and then
allow to cool. When cool, meas
ure out ten parts of water to one
part Of the commercial water
glass Sodium silicate). Stir well
so the solution will become
thoroughly mixed.
