Proper Method of Grading Eggs Whl (Prepared by the United StateH Depart ment of Agrlculturu ) Because of tho methods of handling and markotlng eggs in common usa among tho general fanners who fur nish the great bulk of tho supply, It Is not often that the producer can get tho full benefit of tho high prices for strictly fresh eggs during the fall and winter months. It Is customary in many sections of tho country for tho farmer to tako to town at irregular intervals a basket of eggs some of which may be clean and roiiio dirty, some absolutely fresh and some dis tinctly below tho highest grade. Ho is usually paid by number, not quality, and thus gets no additional protlt from tho eggs that aro really llrst class. The vlllago merchant, moreover, who takes these eggs Is not usually In a position to make tegular shipments to largo markets. The result of all this la that before the eggs reach tho ultimate consumer they havo deterio rated to such an extent that they aro not of a quality to command the high est prlceB. This waste can be, to a great extent at least, remedied by a Bystem of mar keting eggs through creameries. It Is not necessary for tho creamery to bo a co-operatlvo one, for even a pri vately owned establishment will natu rally be desirous of uddlng to tho prosperity of tho neighborhood and to obllgo as far as possible its patrons. For this reason it should content Itself with a moderate profit on tho eggs. This was the caso with ono pri vately owned creamery In tho north ern part of Minnesota, which may bo taken as an excellent example of tho possibilities of marketing eggs in this way. A short tltno ago about 135 farmers were selling their eggs through this agency. They were scattered over a wide territory, ono man oven driving 14 miles. Before tho creamery con sented to market their eggs for them each farmer was required to sign tho following agreement: For the privilege of Belling eggs .to the creamery company and getting a I market established for guaranteed fresh eggs, I, tho undersigned, hereby pledgo myself to comply In every way with the following rules: "I agree to deliver eggs at tho creamery that will not bo to exceed eight days old and to be picked In (gathered) twice every day. "Eggs to bo of uniform slzo (no un dorsizo or oversize eggs). "Eggs to be clean and to u'o kept in a cool, dry collar. "Brown eggs to bo put In ono car ton and whlto in another and so marked. "Each egg to bo stamped on the sldo and carton to ho stamped on tho top. "I agree not to sell any eggs that 1 havo marked with tho creamery com pany's trademark to anyone else but the creamery company, and to return stamps and oilier supplies that havo been furnished, in cuso I nhould decido to discontinue to sell eggs to tho creamery company.' Several points in this agreement are worthy ai notice In tho first placo, eight dn.ys may not Bcem sufficiently ofton in tho majority of places to do- liver Elm eecs. but tho nights in Mln nesota, even in summer, aro usually cool and this, together with tho gath orlnlg twlco a day and tho storage in dryl, cool cellars, was found sufficlont to beep tho eggs In good condition. It by no means follows, however, that 111)18 WOUIU DO JIUSH1U1C UIBUWIltSiU. Tho brown and whlto eggs were sep arated because it was found that this added to tho attractiveness of tho packages, and, secondly, because it encouraged the keeping of hens which lay whlto eggs. During tho spring y months tho owner of tho creamery . paid one cent more for whlto eggs than for brown on the ground that in tho futuro ho could obtain more for them in tho markot, and that ho wlBhcd to stimulate tho keeping of ono class of chickens In order to insuro a moro uniform market. The stamping of tho eggB is impor tant. Tho stamp contained tho namo of tho creamery, tho creamery brand and a serial number for ouch producer. Thus, in caso of any carelessness or failure to maintain tho propor quality it' wbb possiblo to traco tho product back to tho Individual producer and lay tho blamo whero It belonged. Each farmer was furnished with a supply of cartons each ot which hold one dozen eggs and wero bo shaped lH$L 1L te and Brown Ones Packed Separately. thnt thoy could bo packed In a regulai 30 dozen egg case, and shipped fron tho creamery to market by express Tho labor and cost of handling the eggs at the cieamery woro thus re duced to a minimum. They were novel candled becauso tho farmer was un der obligations to bring In only good eggs, and failure to do so was regard ed as sufficient ground for tho cream ery's refusing to hnndlo tho eggs ol tho off cniler In the futuro.- In thu particular case described, the eggs were shipped to a largo grocery storo In Duluth, Minn., which wns al ready taking butter from tho cream ery. This storo was ablo to soil the eggs to Its customers for several cents a dozen more than tho prevailing prices for other eggs. It Is Interesting to note, also, that tho buyers became accustomed to tho stamp on tho egga and when by accident two cases reached tho storo unstamped there was a llttlo difficulty In disposing ol them. Tho increased profit to the farmers through this method of marketing was not as noticeable during tho spring, when eggs aro plentiful, as when thoy were scarce. During tho winter the dlflerenco was sometimes as great as ten cents a dozen, and when this par ticular creamery was visited ono De cember tho farmers were receiving 40 cents a dozen for their eggs. At this very tlmo farmers in tho nearby vlllago were paid 25 cents a dozen. With the increased prices tho produc tion rose rapidly also. Before tho creamery took up tho markotlng of the eggs tho supply received by tho local storekeepers was hardly more than sufficient for tho local demand. Later the creamery paid out In ono year nearly $4,000 to producers of eggs, nearly all of which were Bhlpped away. This accounts for the fact that tho local merchants, who were at first inclined to look with disfavor upon tho Innovation, soon saw that tho In creased returns to tho community meant Increased profits to them even tually. J Thero is no reason why a system similar to the ono Just described should not bo adopted In many other localities. Local conditions will, of course, require certain changes, but the fundamental prlnciplo will remain. Fresh egga shipped regularly in good condition to city markets aro certain to earn greater profits for tho pro ducers than those which aro allowed to deteriorate on the road from tho farm to tho consumer. Finally tho profits from its egg business may well make tho establishment of a creamery possiblo when It could not bo run for dairy products alone. TO SPREAD OR PILE MANURE Answer to Question la Largely One of Location Much Loss Sustained by Broadcast Scattering. (By ALVIN KRYSKU. Colorado Impert inent Station.) Tho question frequently arlsos, Should raanuro bo spread thinly over tho land In winter when It is hauled, or should it bo dumped In plica to bo scattered in tho spring? Tho answer to the question Is largely ono ot loca tion. In a great deal of Colorado ter ritory tho winters aro dry, with dry, vory windy springs. Whore such con ditions normally prevail scattering manuro broadcast on tho land during the winter means that the manuro will dry out and frequently bo blown away by tho first heavy spring wind storm. Dropping In piles to bo hand scat tered later saves a part of this loss. Whero snow Is on tho ground nnd where winds aro not a monaco, or where conditions permit disking tho scattered manure into tho top soil, this loss by blowing is prevented. fFrom tho standpoint of labor, drop ping in piles increases tho labor. From the standpoint ot saving tho manuro it sometimes saves an appreciublo per centage, whllo broadcast scattering would Iobo all of It. Tho farmer will havo to decide those questions for himself In his own localities, based upon tho points above enumerated. Grow Profitable Pigs.

For a second tlmo, tho lower branch Dt tho legislature Wednesday morning registered Its mandate against one- man rulo and against tho scheme to put the state unhorslty and tho statu farm under separate control by voting down tho itelsner motion, onered on Tuesday, to reconsider Its action along tho same lino last Friday. Although somu members who had voted against Taylor on tho first test changed over to his side Wednesday, tho motion to rcconsldur was lost by tho vote of forty-ono to fifty-one. Ho gained sixteen votes since Friday and the opposition lost eight. Mr. Taylor recognised tho finality of this second defeat by rising In his seat and offering his written resigna tion as chairman ot tho spoclal com mittee appointed three weeks ago to tako charge of appropriation bills for tho university nnd normal schools. Ho also asked that tho house Instruct him what to do with tho bills In his possession as chairman. Several Appropriation Bills Four appropriation bills $5,850 for Norfolk insane hospital; $7,500 for moro land at Hastings asylum; $9,600 for asylum at Beatrice, and $2,500 for home for dependent children at Lin coln, tho first or tho regular grind, aside from legislative expense and tho emergency deficiency bill, havo boon recommended by tho house of repre sentatives In committee ot tho whole.

They wero report ed out of tho finance ways and means committee at 1:30, caino up at 2:30 In committee of tho wholo, and by 3 p. m. wero disposed of. Tho appropriation for tho homo for dependent children In Lincoln Is for tho purohaso ot three lots specified In the bill as adjaccnf to tho Orthopedic hospital. Must Complete Naturalization. In committee of tho whole tho sen ate came very near recommending S. F. 104 for passage. This Is a pro posed constitutional amondmont Intro duced by Hoagland of Iancaster county. It provides that foreign born persons who have taken out their first naturalization papers must ceaso voting after five years It thoy do not completn their naturalization. A sim ilar amondment was defeated at the polls a fow years ago. It Is alleged It was defeated because It was labelled on tho ballot "suffrage," and many voters thought it related to womun suffrage.

An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on tho subject, made tho astonishing statement that one reason why bo many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the largo majority of those whose appli cations are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. According to this it would seem that s medicine for the kidneys, possessing real healing and curative properties, would be a blessing to thousands. Dr. Kilmer k Co., Binghamton, N. Y., who prepare Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the well-known kidney, liver and bladder remedy, claim that judging from evi dence received from druinrists every whcie, who are constantly in touch with their customers, and also indisputable proof in the form of grateful testimonial letters from thousands of reliable citi zens, this preparation is remarkably suc cessful in sickness caused by kidney and bladder troubles. Every interesting statement they receive regarding Swamp Root is investigated and no testimonial is published unless tho party who sends it is reported of good character. They have on file many sworn statements of recoveries in the most distressing cases. Thev stato that Dr. Kilmcr'a Swamp- Root is mild and gentle in its action and its healing influence is soon noticed in most cases. 8wamn-Root is nurely an herbal com pound and Dr. Kilmer & Co. advise all readers who feci in need of such a rem edy to give it a trial. It is on sale at all drug stores in bottlse of two sizes fiOc. and $1.00. However, If you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, JJ.
