Heading toward the Oct. 15 balloting, Britain's election campaign was hotting up last week-and so were the candidates, frequently egged on by hecklers.

This year 80% of all U.S. cotton will be picked mechanically v. only 1% at the end of World War II.

In May, after 200 people from Utah were stricken with salmonellosis, food detectives traced the cause to infected frozen eggs used by local bakers. An outbreak that affected 300 people in Washington State last year was also traced to a frozen-egg product used in lemon meringue pies. Modern mass-production methods of food processing sometimes help spread salmonella, for one bad egg...
