YORK GRAND JURY
AFTER DISTILLERS j
York, Sept. 20.?Although law and j
order leagues organized during the,
jjast 3 months are proving of valuable ;
assistance to the regularly employed ,
officers of the State and county in York j
ounty, these forces haven't been able j
to stamp out distilling by a great deal, j
and blockade liquor is said to be ob- j
tainable in manv sections of York j
i
County at $12 per gallon and up, if j
one just knows the ropes. Now the j
York County grand jury has stepped i
in with a recommendation that chain- J
i
gang sentences without the alternative i
of a fine he imposed upon all persons i
guilty of making or selling the stuff j
who are brought into the courts. In j
the final presentment of the York j
County grand jury made to the court j
of general sesions last Tuesday,
there appears the following:
"We commend the action of Sheriff
'Quinn, the State constables and the
magistrates in their efforts to sup- ,
press the liquor traffic. Wre also j
promise our cooperation with these of- j
ficials to the limit of our power and I
authority. In this connection, too, |
we beg to recommend to our legislative
delegation the advisability of
making the penalties for the viola- |
tion of the prohibition law more se- |
vere than they are now, even to the
extent of depriving convicted offenders
of the privilege of settling on ?, \
basis of fines and giving them straight
prison or road sentences instead."
This recommendation of the grand
jury is considered a powerful blow to
moonshine makers and sellers, and
officers and people generally feel that
it id going to go a long way toward
breaking up the traffic.
Moonshiners have been growing
\ bolder and bolder here of late, and
more careless than ever in regard to
the quality of the stuff they are putting
on the market.

GREAT IS TIDE EGG!
Consider the egg.
J
A restaurant concern which lias
branches in many cities of the United
States and Canada declares in an advertisement
that it uses 24,000,000
eggs a year.
It is impossible to grasp the full
meaning of such a number of eggs.
- The advertiser, in an effort to illus/
trate the quantity, says, the 24,000,000
would be "enough to form a giant
necklace 900 miles in circumference." ,
Whether this statement is true or not
might be determined by recourse to
mathematics, but it is not worth while
because the advertiser was not alto- .
gether happy in suggesting a necklace .
when his subject was eggs. The .
thought of a scrambled necklace is too ;
gay and diverting when what the advertiser
sought was to hold the serous
attention of the reader.
However, dismising the necklace,
there is plenty of room to consider j

the egg.
Few persons appreciate the size and I
importance of the egg industry. At.
I
present the egg production of the ;
United States approximates 24,000,- !
000,000 a year. Today eggs are sell- j
ing at 50 cents a dozen. At that rate :
the egg production today has a value
of $1,000,000,000 a year.
We have been piling up a tremendous
war debt. It amounts to $2G,- i
000,000,000.
The American hen, you might say,
will pay off our war debt in a little
more than a quarter of a century.
Four States?Missouri, Iowa, 1 Hi- ,
nois and Ohio?produce more than
one-fourth of all the eggs in the!
United States.
Cold storage has made it possible
for us to have eggs in quantity all
the year round. This is the season
.when they pile the eggs in storage
as at no other period of the year.
Usually in August or September the
cold-storage accumulations approximate
a mililon cases. There are thirty
dozen?360 eggs?to a ease. Last year
I
at one time the storage holdings were |
1,100,000 cases, or .*560,000,000 eggs. I
If the statement of the restuarant!
concern is true, that it uses 24,000,- j
000 eggs a year, it would seem that
its customers have one egg out of
every 1,000 produced in America.
