That Igg Receipt To preserve eggs, use a pint of slacked lime, half a pint of coarse salt, mixed with three gallons of water. Slack some lime under water and do not use until cold. Then use but a pint of the slacked lime. As published last, some may have understood that more lime was necessary, namely, all the slacked lime that a pint of stone lime would make.

County Commissioner. 1 hereby announce myself as a can didate for the nomination for the olllce of 'County Commissioner of Fulton County, subject to the decision of the voters of the Republican Party, at the primary to be held Tuesday, Septem ber 21st, 1915, and pledge my support to the ticket then nominated. Your vote and Influence are solicited. GRANT BAKER, Dublin Township. That Citizens Meeting. Because I was chairman of the Citizens meeting held two weeks ago when about two hundred ad ult people were present and be cause a number of us who were active in the first meeting have been asked about the meeting last Friday night, a great many who are heartily in faver of the movement asked what we did, and a few who are apparently glad to see that the citizens do not get together in civic right eousness and improvement ask ing in the spirit of sarcasm, are the reasons for this personal an swering of the question why the meeting was not held last Friday night. First, not many people knew that there was to be a meeting last Friday night. Second, no definite program of subjects for discussion was made out and an nounced to the public. It is true that our County news papers being always loyal to such movements did their best to use the short time for announcement of the meetings but when the writer of this article was told by several people that they very seldom get time to look into their papers before Saturday then at once it was clear that they knew nothing of the meeting to beheld on Friday night. It is true that the excellent motion made by Rev. Yearick in the public meeting held two weeks ago was clear and distinct for another meeting the follow ing Friday night but the motion was made after a motion came for adjournment and'only a few of the people heard it. I The writer of this article was out of town all last week and when he was told that no special posters, dodgers and bell ringing and personal work by a number of people to get 'Others out was done during the week it was very apparent why no meeting could be held. i Another meeting will be an nounced and held in the near future is the assurance given by a large number of the citizens.
