BUTTON IDE
IS ENORMOUS
The Government demand for large
quant'ties of buttons has led Am
erican manufacturers to attempt to
purchase back the stocks of wholo
salers and jobbers of buttons at the
oi'co asked the cutting-up trade in
order 10 fill Government requisitions
promptly. The figures furnished by
the Bureau of Foreign and Domes
tic Commerce show; u3so that there
has been a greater demand abroad
for buttons made in this country.
Tne exports of buttons and parts
from the United States for the fiscal
year ending- June 30, 1917, amount
ed to $1,982,104, as compared with,
$1 902,556 in 1916, and $654,372
in 1914. , i
Buttons, especially the larger siz
es, 40 to 55 line, such as are used
on overcoats, of metal, horn, or veg
etable ivory, are now; much, wanted.
Tno demand has not only absorbed
the American product but has appar
ently stimulated, the import trade in
buttons.
PRESERVING EGGS.
Water Glass Will Knp Them Fresh SI* 1
Months or Longer.
Eggs are much cheaper in tlie spring
thau they are later on lu the year, aud
spring eggs can easily tie k'.'pt over un
tll the high price season by putting
them down in water glass, which can
be purchased at drug stores for about
25 cents a quart.
A quart ol' water glass mixed with
twelve quarts of water that has been
boiled and then cooled will be sufficient
to preserve about fifteen dozen eggs. A
stronger solution should be used for
eggs that are to be held six to eight
months or longer.
Stir the water glass aud water mix
ture until thoroughly mixed. Use a
stone jar that lias been thoroughly
cleaned. The cgsrs ■ ''onld also lie clean
ed. Cover the bottom of the Jar with
eggs stood up on end. the small end
down. Pack the eggs so they will cov
er the bottom. The eggs can all be
packed at one time, oue layer upon an
other, or the pa< l:i:ig can te done from
time to time, i'ottr in the mixture so
the top layer o;' e.-.i" will tic covered
fully two Inches. A thin coating of
paratlin poured over the top of the wa
ter glass mixture when the Jar Is dlled
will prevent evaporation: otherwise the |
mixture will require replacing as often I
as evaporation makes it necessary.
Store the Jar lu a cool cellar.—New

Varnish and Enamel.
Paints which dry with a high luster
or gloss are called enamels. These are
made from zinc oxide ground in var
nish. Varnish is produced from fossil
resins such us eopal. kauri, etc. These
resins, which originally (lowed from
trees, have been deposited for centuries
iu the earth. They are mined in Africa
and New Zealand and are found in big
lumps.—Popular Science Monthly.

GOOD ROADS ARE COSTLY.
Suf Bad Roada Are More Expemivt In
th« Long Run.
Highway engineering tias become a
highly developed art. and good road
makiug materials are plentiful. Con
sequently there is absolutely no excuse
for a modern road to "so wrong" with
in Its first four or tlve seasons of use
unless petty graft and local politics can
be considered as sufficient excuses.
It is not enough that the surface of
the road he composed of the proper
materials. These materials must rest
on a Hrm foundation which extends to
a sufficient depth below the surface to
withstand the effect of the frozen
ground on either side. Furthermore,
the surface must be waterproof in or
der to prevent the entrance of rain or
melted snow, which when frozen will
separate and disintegrate the best laid
foundation. Also the mnd surface and
gutters must be so lua.xtructed that the
highway will automatically drain Itself
of all water. 1'his serves the purpose |
oi automatic Hushing and accounts for
the continuous clean swept appearance
of the well designed and properly con
strut ted roadway.
A properly constructed highway Is !
expensive, hilt it Is an asset too obvi
ous for argument, Too often, however,
the tirst cost represents the deciding
factor in the select ion of a certain type
of constru'-tinn. and the upkeep cost is [
overlooked. It is this attitude on the J
part of the town or county taxpayers
or road commissioners, coupled with
graft and politics on the part of the
contractor, which accounts for a large
part of the improved roads which need
to be reconstructed each )ear.—IL W.
