GOOD MONEY FROM BAD EGG Jim Buckley Finally Proved Truth of Saying That He Was Fond of Repeating. "Thair ain't nothiu' in the world but is good fer soinethin' " is one of the favorite sayings of Jim Buckley of Bear Lake. Buckley is a thrifty soul. lie farms in summnner and traps in winter and be tween wLeat and f'urs lie is growing rich. One morning his wife was cook Ing breakfast. She broke a rotten egg into a skillet and was starting toward the door to throw it away when Buck ley stopped her. "Woilan, lon't throw that egg away," sald (Buckley. "But it's rotten," protested his wife. "Makes no difference," declared the plilsopher. "Thar ain't nothin' in the world but-" "James Buckley," exchilimed his wife, "I've heard that a thousand times." The wolf never sniffs at the doors of the prosperous farmers of the Peace river country. But foxes are different animals-here is something. you don't know-rotten eggs are rated as an epi cureau tidbit in vulpine imenus. That night Buckley set a trap in a poplar grove near his home and baited it with the rotten egg. Ile hoped to catch a red fox or perhaps a coyote.

Before the war the cocone, which grows freely in the Southern Ameri cas, on large trees of the palm fnn ily, was literally such a hard nut to crock that its vegetable oil had no place in commerce, and the tree was known chiefly as a hotheration to banann planters when they wished to enlarge their plantations. Eighteen hundred pounds' pressure is required to ernek the cocone tint, and there was an machinery for doing it.

Wages The important thing is to determine the connect lon between wages and prices so evluitably that to one will be able to dIspute the justice of the readjustment.
