COAST STORM
LA IS Wild Winds Rage along Shores of tho Carolinas. PROPERTY LOSS WILL BE HEAVY Disturbance Seems to Center Over Charleston Where Houses, Factories, E:c, Are Blown Over Several Persons Killed. Charleston. S. C, Aus. 23. For more than twenty-four hours a fierca storm has been raging. Many wild rumors are afloat as to loss of life, but it is Impossible to verify them at this time. The property Icsste large and estimates range all the way from $1,WO.OOn tc $2,000,000. Telegraph and telephone service is completely demoralized, che electric light and power syjtem is out cf commission, raassei of wreckage cover tho streets and tbe business of the city is completely paralyzed. V The wind has reached a velocity cf ninety-four miles an hour with the result that scores of houses have been m recked. Shipping has suffered greatly; many large schooners have been Mown ashore. The lower sections of the city were entirely inundated for the period of eighteen hours, caused by the high tide blown in the wind. The train service to and from the city is demoralized on account of the tracks having been washed away. Shipping is paralyzed, the Clyde line steamer Mohawk from Jacksonville, bound for New York, was compelled to remain in 'her berth. The tide was over eight feet during the storm three feet short of the record of JS93. Considerable aauiage was done by the water in the low section, necessitating many people being removed from their houses. Gri'at damage is feared for the rice and Sea Island cetton industries. The fertilizer mills were also badly damaged. All of the mills lost tneir smokestacks, water towers, and some of their roofine. In the city the Carnage Is large in the unroofing of houses, toppling o er chimneys, etc. Th3 trestle adjoining the Mount Pleasant ferry wharf was blown down, killing J. M. Smith cf Columbia, and Motorman Cutter cf the Consolidated Electric company of Charlestown. severely injiuing L. ft. Klint worthy of St. Stephens, and K. B. Hill. Alter a perilous night clinging to a roof. top. Ernest Hedge, was rescued. A. J. Coburn, Southern railway engineer, was killed by a roof flying across the railroad yard and hitting him In the back. The others an eng the dead are almost all negroes. Several schooners blown upon, tbe beach are lying helpless. All the residents of the rosoit islands about the city were notified of the appi caching t torrn In time to leave but it Is estimate that more than 2ÖÖ were unable to reach the mainland, and that their condition is perilous. A number of small fishing beats hve teen lest. Sullivan's Iüand as completely inundated and great anxiety was felt for the people who have hemes there. The soldi ?r3 frcm Fort Moultrie did berpic work in rescuing families, the peci le being taken to the government reservation with the storm still ragIn?. The storm seems to have centered over Charleston and vicinity. It is fe.red that the greatest loss of life has occurred cn the coast islands, but it will be days before the details are known.

CROWD STONES GENERAL REYES Former Idol of Mexicans is Robbed of 3,000 Pesos.
TROOPS FIRE Oil CRAZY MOB When Smoke Clears Away Five Mt derist Agitators Are Stretched Out on Pavement Dead and Many Others Are Injured. Mexico City, Sept. 4. Tie close of a day of rioiing in the streets of the capital such as has not been witnessed since the last few days of the 'Diaz regime was marked by five dead and sixteen wounded. The situation is- serious and a clash that may take the proportions of a battle between 'aderists and Reyes supporters is not improbable. The volatile character of the population is shown when it Js stated that General Iernardo Reyes, candidate against Francisco I. Madero for president, Mas r,tonei and mobbed. A few months ago Reyes, in exile because of the opposition of Diaz, was a popular hero. Upon his return he was acclaimed by M e people as one of the savio-s of the republic. He was an idol with what there remained of the regular army and with the troops from the northeastern part of the republic. Now, in the principal thoroughfare of the city1, he was robbed of 3.000 pesos and later stoned. The rioting between Maderist mobs and supporters of Reyes, with the latter in minority, continued until troops fired. The execution was fearful. When the crowd as cleared away, five bodies were revealed stretched out. Seme of the victims held missiles in their hands, ethers had been shot In the back as they fed. There were many wounded, how many is net known, as they were fake away by friends. i TOLEDO MEN DROWNED Steam Launch Collides with a 5C0-Foot Freighter.

Hui BUERS CA! BETTER
EGG OUTPUT 72,000,000 DOZEN EGGS PRODUCED IN 1910 AT VALUE OF $12,000,000 MAKES ONE THINK. UNDESIRABLE EGGS Senteen Per Cent of Bad Product Can Be Avoided By Carefulness On Part of Producers. The farms of Indiana produced, over 72.000.tM.Kj dozen e?$, valued at over .tl42.000,000, in 1910. A large proportion of these eirs were not first-class in quality, many of them heilig small, dirty, washed crackedr stale or rotten. The following figures taken from Circular No. 140 of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, are jriven to show the per cent of undesirable ecrgs that are sold upon tha market in the middle western states. Preventable Loss in Marketa'de Eggs Dirties 2 per cent Broken 2 per cent Chick development... 5 per cent Shrunken or held . . 5 per cent Rotten 2lo per cent Mouldy Vper cent ' Total 17 per cent Observation of conditions in Indiana has not shown that tbe etzgs oZ this state are any better than any other state: in fact, some report seems to indicate that the reverse w true. Assuming that the above figures are applicable to Indiana, it fair to state that the annual loss to farmers selling rood ejras amounts toover .$2.210.000. This amount mi?ht therefore be saved to 1 1 lie producer without extra cost to the consumer if buvers would buv ers on their merits. How Eggs Are Fold Etrsrs with few exceptions are sold at so much per dozen, regardless of quality. This method of sellincr i called "Case Count." AYhen the larjre buyers quote a price to a huckster, srocer or farmer they take into consideration the fact that during certain seasons of the year, there will be a certain proportion of undesirable ezjs. that can brin? them, no profit and result only in loss. To meet this loss, the buyer must quote a price, lower than lie eonTd pay. if he knew all the ejrziwould be jrood. Therefore, the farmer rrodncin? and selling onlv "strictly firstclass e?;, pays for the loss due the bad ones. 'For example, at a certain season of the year, the e?cs " ill run 15 per cent rotten. To meet this los the buver must qaote aprice 1" per cent lower than he could have given if the eggs had all been first-class. Every farmer does not sell poor egsrs. Many sell a fresh, product and heli to lessen the total percentage of the undesirable eztrs. If every producer sold some bad es-crs the price would be lower. Therefore, the man who sells the strictly fresh eirrs. nays for the loss on account of the bad ones. No Incentive to Sell Fresh E?gs With the present system of buying 02T2S there i. no incentive to the producer to market rlrt-class e72T, since theprice is no sreater for them than it is forpoorer ones. Manv times the question is aked by the man who always markets fresh ezzs, "Why is it that I receive no more for mv fresh eirgs than some of ray. neighbors, who are not as particular us to the ouab. ity of the Vrtrs marketed t" As a matter of fariness, he should not be compelled to take the same price as bis neishbor who sells bad esnrs. irr order that he may protect the buyer who will not buy on the basis of quality. Manv .buyers feel that tbev could afford to pay an increase of two cents per dozen over the regular o"otations: in fact, on bnvor oof offered as high as five cents over local city quotation's. If a farmer kept 150 hens, which produced an average of only 100 eggs per year, the increase of two cent3 per dozen would mean an added profit of $25.00 per year. This increasfd profit is well worth tbe additional effort that would be necessary to obtain it.. . Purdue Experiment Station is collecting data upon this subject and endeavoring tbrou?h education to overcome this, immense annual loss and to interest the farmers in demanding better prices for their egsrs without increased . cost to the eonsumer.
