placed more excelsior and all is COW
cred with cloth. This method of pack
ing may be used where eggs are
shipped both by express and by par
eel post.
Extra stiff cardboard cartons made
to hold from one to several settings
are used to ship eggs. These cartons,
or egg boxes, are fitted with handle
for carrying, similar to that on a
market basket. Bushel baskets are
commonly used to ship from ten to
twelve settings Of eggs, the manner
Of packing and covering being the
same as in common market baskets.
1t is customary to rest" eggs for
Matching for about IL hours after
they are received to allow the germ to
regain its normal position before the
eggs are placed in the incubator.

Minimum Wage Law Held Void by Court

essentially price-fixing measure
In the dissenting opinion delivered
by Justice Holmes the right of con-
gress to pass such an act was upheld
as police regulation to promote pub
lie health and the safety, morals and
welfare of the people.
Justice Sutherland said:
1.-THE law takes account of the
necessities of only one party to the
contract. 1t ignores the necessities Of
the employer, by compelling him to
pay not less than a certain sum,
whether the employee is capable of
earning 1t or not.
1.-THE law is not confined to the
great and powerful employers, but
embraces those whose bargaining pow
er may be as weak as that Of the
employees. 1t takes no account Of
periods of stress and business depres.
sion, Of Gripping losses which may
leave the employer, himself, without
adequate means Of livelihood"
The Supreme court wage fixing de-
cision has left to organized labor its
only other self-defense weapon-the
strike-said Clarence barrow.

MRS. CONKLIN 70
BUT SHE VOTES
Almost As Active As Schoolgirl
Since Taking TanIac.

"Since taking Tanlac, I am as happy
and almost as active as when l was q
schoolgirl, despite my seventy years."
said Mrs. Ocy Conklin, a highly re-
spected resident of 20 Royalston ave.
N, Minneapolis, Mimi, recently.
"Why, even went to the polls and
stood in line waiting to cast my vote
and didn't feel tired. That shows
how active l am.
But before taking Tanlac, there
were times when 1 was too weak and
nervous to even do any sewing. In
digestion bothered me terribly, my
back and head ached badly and was
too nervous to sleep right.
81 am convinced there is nothing like
Tanlac. / don't know what it is to
have indigestion, headaches or nervous
ness, and l help with the homework
and do lots of other tasks without
feeling tired. Tanlac is simply grand"

A FAR-REACHING decision Dy
"a the United States Supreme
N court holds unconstitutional
the minimum wage law
passed by congress for women work
ers in the District of Columbia. The
decision has an indirect bearing on
the state minimum wage laws passed
in New York, Wisconsin, Kansas,
Washington, Oregon and California.
It brings into question the rights Of
the states to enact minimum wage
statutes. The six states interviewed in
the district case as friends OF the
court.
The decision, directly affecting H.
500 working women and girls In the
District of Columbia, and written by
Justice Sutherland, held that the law
restricted liberty of contract. Chief
Justice Taft and Justices Holmes and
Sanford dissented. Justice Brandeis
did not participate.
The majority of the court contended
the act of congress abridged the free
dom of contract for personal services
and, therefore, was beyond legislative
discretion. The act was held to be

WHAT is CHEAP FERTILIZER
Cost Per Ton Does Not Always Mean
Most ProfitabIe-High-AnaIysis
Is Always Best.

The fertilizer that is cheap per ton
is not necessarily the most profitable
one to use. In case of factory-mixed
fertilizer, the reverse is generally
true. Invariably high-analysis mixed
fertilizers furnish plant food at lower
price per unit than do those of low
analysis, and will generally be found
to return greater profit on the invest
ment,

-HE high cost of dishonesty is
problem to cause concern
to the American people. Last
year an army of burglars,
robbers, embezzlers, forgers, conf
dence men, bucket-shop operators, and
common thieves levied a tax on the
United States that is estimated by one
of the large surety companies to ag-
gregate $685. 100000.
This is approximately equal to the
entire internal revenue receipts of the
federal government for the last fiscal
year and is the equivalent of a per
capita tax on the entire population
of the country of more than $50.
The items in this appalling bill
which crooks collected in one year in
the United States are: Stock frauds,
land frauds, and confidence games,
S2,OOO,OOOOOO; burglary and theft,
S525,OOO,O 900; embezzlement and defal-
cation, $125,0OO,0OO; fraudulent bank
ruptcy and credit swindles, 100000

retail merchants, $150,OO0,0O0; worth

LAYERS NEED OYSTER SHELL
Absolute Necessity for Hens and They
Require Large Quantities
Of Material.

Don't neglect to keep the shell
boxes full all the time Oyster shell
is an absolute necessity for laying
hens and they require large quantities
of it at the height of the laying sea-
son. Don't depend upon broken
crooks and grit to supply the large
amount of lime required. 1t won't
give the best results.

DUST HENS ONLY IN MORNING
Chicks Smuggling Under Mother Are
Liable to Get Enough of Pow
der to Harm Them.

In busting hens that have young
chicks, to get rid of lice, it is important
to dust on the powder early in the
morning on bright day. Otherwise,
the chicks while smuggling under the
hen are likely to get enough of the
powder to injure them severely. If
the busting is done during the morning
in fair weather the hen will not hover
the chickens enough to hurt them until
the injurious qualities Of the powder
have been largely dissipated.

TUBERCULOSIS IN HOG HERD
Milk From One Diseased Cow Mixed
With That of Healthy Animals
Will Cause Trouble.

Hogs fed tubercular milk will GER
tainly develop the disease. Milk from
one diseased cow mixed with that of
several healthy animals will invari-
ably produce the disease in a large
percentage Of pigs fed upon it. At

that a pen Of pigs known to\be free
Of tuberculosis were fed tubercular

BIG PROFIT MADE ON GEESE
Many White China Breeders Sell Eggs
Around Forty Cents Each
Marvellous Results Shown.

White China geese sometimes aver
age fifty eggs per goose. Many breed
ers sell their Matching eggs at around
forty cents each. So it is possible to
show marvellous results in paper prof
its on geese. However, many breed
ers with purebreds who sell eggs for
Matching have realized a profit per
year Of $500 or $40 per goose.
