' WANT THE NEGRO VOTE. Democrats Hope to Profit by For- aker Defection In Ohio. Falrview, Lincoln, Neb., July 21. According to Democratic leaders who have been to Fnirvlew and conferred with Mr. Bryan, tho ability of tho Democrats to ' secure tho negro vote in Ohio will depend largely upon tho attitude of Senator Koraker. It Mr. Coraker does not give cordial support to Mr. Taft, tho Donioernts declare they feel assured of lurgo negro sup port In that state. Should, however, Senator Koraker lend full support to Taft, it Is conceded that (here Is little probability of enrolling a sufficient number of negro voters In tho cause of Democracy to affect tho result ma terially. Former Attorney General Krank S. Monnett of Columbus and E. II. Moore of Youngstown, who was chairman of the las; Democratic state convention In Ohio, are speeding homo after a conference with Mr. Bryan Sunday night, with Instructions to size up the situation and take every advantage of tho no-called Koraker-Taft feud. ' The llrst.feellng of hoofulness with Vegan! .to, Illinois Is not gaining (round and while that state will be carefully looked after, It has been practically determined that the main efforts In the middle West will bo di rected toward Indiana and Ohio, whve the Democratic lenders are counting on wresting tho majority vote from the Republican column. It is now definitely settled that the chairmanship of the national commit tee will not go to a Southern man be cause of the attitude of the Southern ers toward the negro. This eliminates Ollie James of Kentucky, Why when and how to preserve eggs. THE QUALITY WAY There lire M IniHt three uortinent reasons for proMTving re;, 1. It you desire fresh egg In winter, when prices are. hi:h, you cnu have a iur supply of Letter vg thnn you can be cer I. in of Irtng nlilr to buy at the grocery. .'. If you keen hen 8 and wih to hold your eK dr a better prii-e, you can, by the Vitality'' uieilmd, positively preserve them to (hut no tent except incubation can deter mine that they me more thnti a week old. 3. Should you wish to tmeeulute by pur- chasing vugs when price i low and aellinf when priee is high, you can do it and know tlmt yuur vggs tire far superior to the beat cold Rtttniire egg on the market. Ibe shell nt nn eirif contnms ft niultituu of pores which lire tilled wilh organic mat er. After twenty-four noun, it exposed to he air at a teitmerature above 34 . thia matter slowly decomposes, alb wing air to enter the egg nuTying with it tho noxious fCHM'M which attack the albumen through the ttlinity existing between these fane and the sulphur contained in the vgg. After a day, under it mi jil cumlitioUtt, the rgg in no longer 'htrictly fresh" and become a little worse inch day unnl it is "only tit to throw at ths empire. " 'Ihe effect of creasing the shell does not top the pnw'HM of decomposition, neither doe Ihe whitewnsh (or liuie) process. Cold storage is jiu (Tictual because sometimes the miici-Hiure teti too hmh. and in plants where unnnonia it used this gas may be the nentiH of (riving the egg an indescribably bad flavor. Oat have no preserrative quali- ien, and packing m salt simply retards the siim'k of decomposition from men ping into he ntmoMphere and aids lis ingress to the interior of the egg. So, any of these meth od are failures in regard to preserving the quality of (he egg. inns it heroine a mutter of importance in four own family to know how to preserve cg perfectly without encountering any ot he disagreeable features attending ordi nary methods. Money is being made every year by per sons preserving eggs the "Quality way, with no risk of lnsx, because whether one dozen or 1 .000 dozen are preserved the result Is certain, if instructions are carefully followed, and when nix months old no expert ean distinguish them from newly laid eggs bv any test except an attempt at incuba tion. In the Sonne months eggs are plentiful snd the price is low. The farmer's good wife gathers the eggs from day to day and it may be f te accumulation of two or three eeks that nhe finally Hells, honestly believ ing that they are "strictly fresh." The grocer buys eggs and places them in baskets occupied by older eggs. He sella fresh eggs from these baskets every day, but does not rerun tho bottom until broody hena reduce the supply and hp is at ill selling "lrirtly fresh-' eggs, some of which have been in stock six weeks or more. They have been preserved by the Mopen air" method, and if you depend upon tho market for jour Mipply tlie quality of the goods is Iwavs a conundrum. In the meantime the price has advanced, mi that egg which cost J.ie, are soi for a'Je. Ihe owner of hens cannot afford to sell epgc l any time fop 13 cents a dozen, but n oMicrd to If be knows of no way to pre serve (heir quality perfectly while wsilitiff for the priee to rise. WHEN TO PRESERVE EGGS. Many people have flocks of hens that are prolific layers from April till September. After that they rarely lay enough eggs to pay for their eare. quoting from our local market, (and we have kept tub several years) the price In April is lAc retail, and the grocer paya from 14c to lic In May you can get 13c If you have less than five dozen in the bas ket. In June nnd .Inly half the hens are broody nnd prices advance so the gmeer pays jnc anti uoc hot n.K it the eggs are Htncily fresh " In AuguM the price ad vances to jnc, and in September to 2'Zc, October marks 2ft, November 30c. and dur ing the next three months freh eggs find a ready market ut from 3'c to 34c. The retail nee is always from two to four centa higher. Now, It is uite apparent that if egs laid In July and August are preserved till Decem ber they wit) bhow a pro lit of ten rents a dozen. It becomes plain, therefore, that the npr- fect preservation of eggs for periods of four and five month will result in a nice protlt on the money invested, whether that invest ment ts mode In hena or tn fresh eggs, and there Is no doubt a t tho result, as the demand la always present and the market open. That this can be done at a nice profit and never sell an egg unfit for food, we posl lively know For our own family line we preserve the egg" laid in July and August, and they re main perfectly fresh, wilh no change In flavor, until eggs are plentiful again, in the Spring. HOW TO PRESERVE EGGS. This problem has been the subject of con stant investigation nil over (he world for half a cenMiry, and it was less than ten years ago tl.at a successful method was dis covered. The discovery wj,H not made by UN. but we have tested the irethod thoroughly and carefully for live years with the most satisfactory results. We ctll it The "Qual ity" Way, becnuse the nuality of the egg is perfectly preserved. We have kept eggs nioio than a vear and thev vnro atiii hence, we are honest In our belief that eggs can be kept In a perfectly fresh condition longer than unyone needs to keen them. Wo have supplied a great many people with the method, and, where instructions were carefully followed, there were no fail ures. 'ihe procesa in simple, the labor Insigni ficant, the material inexpensive and at the end no traces are If t to indicate that the eggs have been "kept." The most skilled expert cannot tell the difference between an egg four months old n'i-1 one laid the day before, by candling, breaking, whipping or cooking. We will supply you with explicit instruc tions for preserving eggs the "Qunlity Way' for one dollar, and iln-rc will no strings Sttitili'-d In the purehnse. Having purchased Ihe Instructions they are yours to do with as you plrnse. Yon mnv r-ll or give Ihe method to your neighbors If you choose, or you can keep your own c innsel and let them wonder why your hena produce an a In; fiance of eggs at a time when their own hens .re "eating their heads off " If yon earn for a supply of freah eggs for your own table, nil winter, this process is worth more to you than the price asked. It will not make a had ok ft (rood, hut It will preserve fresh egg continually fresh for an indefinite period. Nothing is used that Is poison or caustic, tn that penetrates brvond the shell.
