Postage Stamps Educational.


postage stamps are an effective
means of stimulating loyalty and pa
triotism. Everybody who posts or
receives a communication through
the United States mail receives,
nolens volens, transitory lesson in
the history of the Nation" says Har-
ny S. New, postmaster general, in
an article in School Life, publica-
ton of the Interior Department., Blu
reau of Education.
GIN general the designs upon the
regular issues have included the
representation of the head of one OF
the Presidents, but in the past fifty
years the custom has grown of COM
memorating important historical
events by special issues" states the
Postmaster General. "The novel ap-
pearance of the new stamps i'm
mediately arrests the attention OF
the user, and inquiry into it's mean
ing naturally follows. The result is
valuable lesson in history which
few escape, even those Of limited
education.
"Thirteen special series of adj
hesive stamps have been employed to
impress historical occasions upon the
popular mind" Postmaster General
New continues. "They have carried
to thousands their first knowledge of
some of the events which were thus
celebrated, and they have led mil
lions of our people to wider and
more intelligent understanding OF
the circumstances that have con-
tributed to our national existence

The October term of the supreme
court is still in session, with several
criminal matters still to be disposed
of and sentences to be imposed.
Court took a recess from Saturday
until this morning, when it was ex-
pected trial would be opened in the
case of Clifford Bunker, charged with
assault with intent to kill. Bunker
is the man accused of having been
one of the two men who entered the
house of H. Blaine Davis in Ellis
worth on the evening of August Is
last, and after binding Mrs. Davis
hand and foot, left her face down in
the bathtub with the water running
Bunker, arrested few days later
at Lamoine, has told many conflicting
stories and made alleged confessions
of the assault, but has signed no for
NAL confession. Now he tells a story
that, if proved true as to dates, would
establish complete alibi. 1t started
County Attorney Blaisdell off for
Franklin county yesterday, and
telegram from him advises the court
that he will be unable to get back
before Friday morning. All criminal
matters pending must await his re-
turn.

PLACING INCUBATOR.
EGGS ON THE MARKET
ny T. E. oUIsENBERRYl

Some farmers and poultry raisers
make practice OF putting eggs on the
market which they have had In an In
cubator for a few days and found the
eggs TO be infertile. This Is a bad
practice and should never be done by
any honest farmer or poultry raiser.
You may make good use Of such eggs
by consuming them at home. They
Will do TO fry. for baking and for GER
tain kinds Of cooking. but they are alb
solutely unfit for the market Such
eggs while good for home consumption
are absolutely unit Tor shipping. The
yolks Will break. the eggs will rot be-
fore they can reach the consumer, and
II is a dishonest practice to oifer such
eggs for sale as sresh-laid eggs. and
you lower the price on all eggs by 30
doing Consume such eggs at home.
We have seen severe market losses
due to habit OF sending lnfertlle in
cubator eggs into commerce This has
been especially noticeable In the large
houses making a speciality Of break
ing out eggs where they found Il alb
solutely necessary TO candle even In
March and early April because farm
ers and poultry raisers we're marketing
lnfertile incubator eggs with their
fresh eggs, and the incubator eggs
came In In such bad condition and
were 40 numerous that they had to be
culled out before IL was safe for the
breakers to handle the eggs. AT that
time OF the year there Is no other rea-
son for caLdling. You can see what a
loss this means to any deHler, and In
stead OF reducing the army OF gamblers
which are now required this practice
makes a demand for even a greater
number
Another very serious EVIL due to the
marketing OF infertile eggs from an
Incubator or from underneath hen
is their admixture with storage stock.
These incubator eggs usually go on the
market at the season when eggs are
being stored without being candled.
We know II 10 be fact that infertiie
Incubator eggs break down during
and handling and easily
become white rOts."
Infertile incubator eggs can be used
for bakers purposes In the home, but
under no circumstances should they
ever be offered for sale or for ship
ment.
Another important reason why such
eggs should not be marketed as fresh
eggs Is the fact that they are liable to
be seized by food inspectors as being
niKbranded. Such eggs play havoc
with the storage stock, and we are Ia
hopes that no farmer or poultry raiser
viii be guilty Of such dishonest prac-
ice.

The trap nest Is the most accurate

II Is not practicable for those who live
on farms. with all the other work they

have been studying the general char
