to take advantage of present low prices and preserve strictly fresh eggs in water glass to be used when high prices arrive. This is consid- cred by the department to be not only advisable for the thrifty house. wife but almost essential for the family that is feeling the pressure of depressed business as eggs can rarely be eliminated from the diet without endangering health.
 Producers and retailers of Con- necticut's highest quality eggs are cooperating in program which will make 1t possible for the housewife to preserve more than the usual amount of eggs for use when prices commence their seasonal advance which promises to be above normal this year. Dealers handling strictly fresh native eggs. packed in accord- ance with official state grades, are offering a substantial reduction in price to customers who order such eggs in lots of IS dozen or more.
 Such eggs will be packed neatly in cases with the name of the cus- toner attached and delivered to the retail store. Each order will contain complete directions to be followed In putting down. eggs. For best re- suits every precaution should be ta- ken to secure strictly fresh infertile eggs with sound clean shells. For this reason the customer is advised to demand eggs that are packed in accordance with official state grades as such eggs are inspected and their quality guaranteed.
 Housewives desirous of participant ing in this thrift plan but unable to secure eggs as specified above should communicate with the state depart ment of agriculture, state capitol, Hartford.

NeeO Industry for Islands.

THE Virgin Islands, which are presenting
serious financial problem to the United
States due to the collapse of the two principal
industries, sugar raising and production Of oil
of bay for bayrun, may be the scene of an en-
tirely new industry and one which will react
to the benefit Of the islands and the United
States as well.
Rotenone. now considered the best of all in
secticides, may become the principal industry
of the islands. The Department Of Agriculture,
under control Of which the islands have been
placed, has sent an expert to take charge of the
experimental work which may revolutionize the
life Of the islands. Three plants pyrethrum,
derris and cube, are the principal sources of
rotenone and it is believed that they can be
grown successfully on the islands. The roots
of these plants yield fairly large percentage
of the material and the climatic conditions of
the islands somewhat similar to those of the
Malay states, where the principal sources are
now found
Should the experiments prove successful the
islands new industry would not only make for
the prosperity Of the islanders, but would give
the United States an ample supply of the in
secticide close at home.

Mine Injuries Are Watched.

CO much stress has been laid on the fatal ac-
y cidents in coal mines that the tremendous
loss, to say nothing of the suffering involved,
through non-fatal accidents has to large ex-
tent escaped notice.
The Bureau of Mines, with its safety CAM
paign well under way, with resultant large
decrease In mine fatalities, is now turning its
attention to the accident which results in in-
jury only, or perhaps in death eventually. Pre-
liminary figures gathered by the bureau indi-
cate that while the bituminous mine is more
prone to fatality, the anthracite mine is more
dangerous to the individual receiving injuries
only.
For every 1000 tons OF soft coal mined one
miner is injured, while for every 81 injured men
there is one killed. In the hard coal mines one
man is injured for every 1000 tons produced.
with one killed for every 68 injured.
The work, by its very nature, is hazardous,
but the bureau officials feel convinced that Just
as the death toll materially reduced
through safety measures, so the injured list can
be curtailed by the careful instruction of miners
in ways Of preventing the more common types
of ,nishaps which result largely through care
lessness.
