THE DEADLY FOURTH

This years Fourth of July toll in deaths
and injuries was the heaviest in recent years,
and one of the largest in the 155 years dur
ing which the nations birthday has been cele-
brated.
Accidental deaths from all causes in con-
nection with the days festivities are placed
at 4o3, or 300 more than died on the same
date last year. Motor car deaths were 16O,
while 181 were drowned, "a died from heat,
and IA were killed in airplane clashes. Only
six fatalities from fireworks were reported,
but nearly $500 were injured. No figures
concerning automobile injuries are available,
but it is certain that the number ran to MANY
hundreds.
This frightful total of dead and injured
in single day was largely the result of care
lessness or criminal recklessness. If every
one who set out to celebrate the Fourth had
exercised reasonable caution the story would
have been far different. But few seem to
realize the need for carefulness until it is too
late.

That from the hidden depths may rise
The quantity simple elemental
With natural grain unwarped by all
The cant and sophistries that our days.
The patience and the vigor of the fields
Shall mark his deeds;
The freedom of the skies inspire his thought;
And in the overlooking knowledge of our time
His clear unclouded vision shall observe
Amid confusing streams, the springs of wisdom.
No baneful ego will impede his steps,
But humbled by the grevious task
Of leadership in cyclonic days,
Opposed by vested hatreds, and yet
With mercy tempering justice in his soul,
He shall engage whereto the hand of fate has led;
His country whole again his rich reward
And he amazed to find his name ranked with
The immortals

Recent Excessive Hot
Wave Cost Big Egg Losses
Unfertile Eggs Stand Heat Best
Experts Claim-Minnesota
Loses rs Cars In Week

That the recent heat wave caus-
ed loss approximately 100000
in eggs, throughout the United
States, in one week, is the conser-
vative estimate of experts. This is
in excess of the natural loss in
chen fruit" at this season of the
year, which always is greater than
during the colder months.
Men who are in a position to
know, figure Minensota's egg loss
during the hot spell, at between 20
and 25 carloads, in one week, and
they claim thier estimate is by no
means exaggerated; rather the
contrary. This also is in excess of
the so-called natural loss. South
Dakota was even harder hit than
Minnesota, the loss there being CIV
en- at between Is per cent and Is
per cent, which, translated into
cash, means approximately $150.O00.
Allowing $4,000 as the present value
of a carload of eggs, it will be
seen that about seventy-f1ve car
loads of South Dakota's hen fruit
went bad, during the terrific heat.
The other day, farmer of this
vicinity brought a case of 80 dozen
eggs to local produce house, for
sale. The hen fruit was candled,
and this procedure revealed that %
dozen of eggs were rendered alb
solutely worthless for human con-
sumption, because incubation had
already set in. Consequently, all
but two dozen of the entire case Of
eggs were worthless, and had to
be destroyed.
Tests made by experts have
shown that unfertile eggs resist
the heat much better than do fer
tilted eggs, because the germ en-
bryo is naturally developed by
warmth, either from the cluck or
artificially in an incubator. Con-
sequently fertilized eggs become un-
fit for human food much more
readily than do unfertile eggs. Be
cause this is true, farmers and
poultry men are urged to get rid
of their roosters, after they have
secured sufficient Supply of eggs
for Matching, and thereby safe
guard the quality of their hen fruit
in warm weather. The practice Of
storing eggs in granaries, also is
being discouraged by experts, who
advise keeping the hen fruit in
cool, dry place in the cellar, pend
ing the trip to market.
