He lectures at the Penn-Harris Hotel on Thurs day afternoon at 1.30 o'clock. Tells of Poultry Every raiser of poultry In the state was concerned with the talk this afternon of L. B. Sprecher, giv en to the Pennsylvania Poultry Asso ciation. He said; "The principal part of the farming business which brings real success is the 'weak spot In the farmer's armor, namely, marketing his product to the best advantage. "This can be remedied in only one way—co-operation. This is done in Canada, where they explain that the object of co-operation Is to improve the quality of eggs as they leave-the farm and to place them in the hands of the consumer with the least pos sible delay aqd in- the best possible condition." He advised a co-operative associa tion which can obtain better pricps with its large output. He em phasized that the cost of selling is much less when units are consolidat ed; likewise the purchase of raw ma terials is less. The speaker pointed out that the two routes for eggs to reach the con sumer are huckster and general store and that both of these entails an im mense amount of breakage, waste and expense, the cost comkig event ually for the consumer. Concluding, he gave figures from the Canadian system used in On tario, as follows: Tho number of egg circles or units was thirty-six with a membership of 1,048. The cash receipts for eggs marketed co operatively wa5|104,227.36. The price that would have received at general store prices was determined to be $89,345.50; leaving a balance of $14,872.36 to be distributed, in other words, velvet. He suggested that co-operating marketing start in Pennsylvania In county units, and announced that Lancaster has started one to lead the way for the rest of tho state.

This res olution accompanied that passed by tho organization in which the de mand was made that those respon sible for atrocities during the war be punished as criminals, so as to pre vent the recurrence of barbarities. The text of this latter resolution reads: "In violation of the primitive law of humanity thousands of women and girls, even children, of all so cial conditions have ben systemati cally torn from their families, sub mitted to Inhuman tortures and treated as slaves. "With broken and bleeding hearts, we women of France and the Allied countries come before the peace con gress to ask Justice in the name of our martyred sisters. To prevent a recurrence of similar atrocities, we ask that those who have directed them and ordered them may be con demned as criminals." Another resolution was adopted setting forth the work women did during the war and demanding that women ''claim their place in all future institutions of the league of nations in legislative and executive branches of governments."

BIG NUMBERS The Knormous Differences Be tween Two Principal Systems of Xotuttoii When tlicy Pass tlie Million Mark, ami YVhy Ours Is the Best. BY GABRETT P. SERVISS *| " 'A' claims that a billion has ten 1 figures the world over; 'M' says that' only in America and France it has ten figures, and that In all "other countries it has thirteen, thus: 1,- 000,000,000,000. Please oblige us with un answer. —F. B. F." Neither "A" nor "B" is quite right. . A billion has ten figures in France and America, and their col onles( or dependencies, and gener ally throughout Latin countries. It has thirteen figures in England and Germany, and generally, though not universally, in their colonies and de pendencies. The first system will ocrtainly be the one finally to sur vive everywhere on account of its incomparably greater utility and convenience. There was a time, even after the world became civilised in the mod ern sense, when a million and its second power sufficed for the con venient notation of any number practically used, even for astro nomical magnitudes, and it seems not to have occurred to the inven tors of the Anglo-German billion, which is a million-million, that men would evfer wish, or need, to employ in ordinary mental operations such conceptions of number as are con tained in the terms trillions, quad rillions, qulntillions. sextillions, etc. These were treated as virtual ab stractions wTilch simply suggested, vaguely, enormous, ungraspable numbers, and under tlie rule by Which a billion was made to consist of a million multiplied by itself, or raised to the second power of a mil lion, a quadrillion tlie fourth power, and so on, so that by a few swift leaps the scale of numeration disap peared in the clouds of incompre hensible immensity. To see how this system worltk and how if renders, everything above a trillion, or at most a quad rillion, utterly unmanageable, ap -1 ply the rule a few successive limes. ! Thus: a billion (Anglo-German), equals 1,000,000 x 1.000,000, or 1,000,000,000,000; a trillion equals 1,000,000 x 1,000,000 XT 1,000.000, or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000; and so on, I a sextillion becoming a row of I thirty-seven figures, while a vigin [lillio'n, the highest named numeral period, contains a hundred and twenty-one figures, being a million raised fo fhe twentieth power! On the other hand, the Franco- American system uses 1,000 in stead of 1,000,000 for the base in calculating the higher periods, a billion being the second power of 1,000, a trillion the third power of 1,000, etc,, so that the higher periods, up to quintlUions, or even sextillions, are manageable, and, so to speak, usable. For instance, the weight of the earth in tons is ex pressed in sextillions on this system, whereas by the other system it must be expressed in the relatively cum brous form of "thousands of tril lions." Our system also avoids the inconvenient break made by the other at the point where ton is ex changed for a thousand as the basal number whose successive powers are thenceforth to denote the numeral periods in rising order. Thus 100 is 10x10. and 1,000 is 10x10x10, or IOOx 10, but beyond 1,000 the tens are no longer used as factors, but a jump is made to 1,000 as the base, and Pneumonia gS First call ft physician.

PENNSYLVANIA'S LARGEST SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION that is employed but once, viz: to I form a million by taking the second | power of 1,000. The very next step consists in übundonlng the thousand and substituting the miljlon, thus vastly increasing the interval be. tweent the following periods, so that in order to indicate convenient in termediate numbers between a mil lion and a billion (English) one is obliged to employ such locutions as "thousands of millions," "tens of thousands of millions," "hundreds of thousands of millions" just for lack of the logical intervening stop that is neatly furnished TJy the French billion. it is true that our system (the French) also changes Us base, but it does so qnly once, viz., from fens of thousands, the lattef being re tained until the highest period Is reaclfed. The growth of the power of the trained mind to form a definite conception of the gigantic numbers represented by the higher numeral periods (say, up to sextillions, in the •Franco-Americun system) is one of the most striking proofs of the vast advance that lias made in tellectually within a few thousand years past, In fact, this advance is properly to be correlated with change of status from savagery to civilization, a change whose time rate is variable.
