NEWCASTLE SOLDIERS APPRECIATED RECEPTION llecefrtion Tendered Member of Wy oming National (iiiMrtl nl Alliance It ring line Compliment The Neeastle, Wyoming, News Journnl of last week hail the follow ing fine compliment to pay Alliance on the reception accorded the Wyo ming soldiers when they stopped over between trains at Alliance: True Pat riot Uin The boys of Company "A" were Riven n grand reception when they reached Alliance, Neb.. Tuesday noon. Trainmaster Dick Nelson, un cle of Captain Ponleson of the com pany, came up to Newcastle on Mon day to nee the boys off, and knowing well the patriotic principles of the cltlaens of his home town In "Old Box Butte," wired some of his friends when the troops were ordered to en train and to arrange a recepiton for the men of his nephew's commnnd. When the train bearing the Wyo ming troops arrived at Alliance It was met by fully 2,00 enthusiastic, cheering cltlaens. headed by the Alli ance band, and the officers and men were given a royel welcome and were escorted by a committee to a hotel, where spreads were laid for the en tire complement. Nothing was left undone by the good-hearted, whole souled, patriotic people of Alliance to show the boys a good time and to make them realize that they were till In the land of their friends and fellow citizens Americans. There has always existed the kind liest feelings of good will and fellow ship between the people of Alliance and Newcastle, and no deed or action on their part could have more fully demonstrated that feeling than the royal reception given our brave sons who were going to the front to help protect the honor and Integrity of the American people, and to show to the world that "Old Glory," the emblem of love, truth, patriotism and freedom, would not be allowed to suffer insult from any nation under the sun, and that true Americans stand as one for America first, and the absolute protection of American citizens. That the people of Wyoming, espe cially Newcastle and Weston coun ty, feel grateful to the people of Al liance for their kind acts toward our boys goes without saying; for the fathers, mothers, wives, sisters, and brothers, sweethearts, and all hold In the highest reverence and all will cherish In memory the Christian act which will furnish untold consolation to the aching heart of many a mother who may be called upon to sacrifice her son for his country's sake. Citizens of Alliance, we salute you, and in behalf of our people, the News-Journal extends th hand of fellowship, with heartiest tbanka to you all, and may the hand of Trovl dence, which shapes and controls. the des7tiny of nations, reward you.

FLEMING'S FATHER HAS FINE PRESERVATIVE Itnhert Fleming, of Itlackfoot, Idaho, Han Invented a Preservative Hint Kill the Demand Robert Fleming, of Biackfoot, Ida ho, father or R. O. Fleming of Alli ance, has invented an egg preserva tive that does the work that no other preparation of this kind has ever been nb'.e to do. Orders heve bee received by Mr. Fleming for 250, 0M Jars of the preservative for delivery on March 1, 1917. In order to thoroughly test out tbe preparation five cases of eggs were taken and treated with the preserva tive, then placed In a bank vaalt for twelve months. On being take out the eggs were found to be m fresh as when placed therein. Mr. Fleming has a small chicken ranch near Biackfoot. He is not a chemist, but has been working on tho preparation for two years. The prep aration looks like brown shoe polhrti and is rubbed on the eggs by han4. A small jar, the also of a Jelly glaaa, sells for one dollar and will care for one hundred dozen egga. Mr. Fleming will visit his son la Alliance in about ninety days, stop ping over on his way to Chicago, where a large factory Is to be install ed. The following article is taken frost the Idaho Republican published at Biackfoot: That so great an Industry as the poultry business with Its products worth millions of dollars should ft so long the victim of great waste to one of the wonders of our niodera economic system, but it seems U hare been left for a Biackfoot man la the person of Robert Fleming to compound n solution that will suc cessfully preserve eggs for any length of time. Mr. Fleming has had hta product tested in all the states of the union, north and south, by private concerns and government stations, and all return reports of a perfect egg preserver. As a result he ia scarcely able to fill the orders, m rapidly do they come. Mr. Fleiniag states that he worked on the problem for years and gave it up, and after coming to Biackfoot resumed turn study and experiments until finally it "came to him like a flash." He ia now selling patent rights by states, and several Biackfoot men have tak en territory. The following i-rtick is taken from the best paper in Meia piiid, Tennessee: State agricultuial colleges and ex periment utauous itiruoiu the coun try have for the pubi year been thor oi (.baling out the iteming i runt rva lue oit eggs and liavu wuiioul excuy ium 1'ioiiouncea it u success una pre dict n win prove u wonderful beuo m to iue laiuiers over me country, us wen us me specially poultry luimtia una produce men. in laci, uii persons or concents wuo uu) or ben egg iu any yuaulilj wnt be iremeuuousiy otnclUcd.

The answer give after a year or more of thoro testing is that this preservative has no effect whatever on the egg other than to preserve it in the exact state it was iu at the time the preservative was applied. In all the tests newly lais" eggs were used, and at the and of three, six, nine or twelve months, when they were apened, they were found to be still as fresh as newly laid eggs. That is what each of ths state agricultural colleges and ex periment stations reported at the ex piration of their tests. Fleming egg preservative is put us in glass Jars, each jar containing enough preservative to preserve 10t dozens eggs, and as the Jar retails at only $1, the cost of preserving eggs is one cent per dozen. It was discovered by Mr. It. O. Fleming, of Biackfoot, Idaho, and it has takes his nani.e. The agencies for the sals of this ' product have already bees closed for practically the entlrs United States. L. E. Roberts & Co.
