Preserving Eggs.

KouLER, OF Germany, who owns an ex-
tensiye poultry raising establishment, and
who, every winter, preserves thousands
Of eggs without ever losing one, has re-
Gently published an account of his method
of proceeding, and has given the fol
lowing rules for securing favorable re-
suits
1. The nest must be placed in a cool
place.
2. The fowls that show tendency IN
set must be removed at once, and placed
in separate Enclosures until this propensi-
~ has left them.
3. If many hens be confined in the
same inclogure, or use the same nests Tor
laying their eggs, the eggs ought to BIC
removed from the nests several times u
day.
4. The eggs ought TO be assorted ac-
cordng TO age, and preserved in boxes
with the covers always partially open.
| These boxes must be kept in cod, airy
and perfectly dry place.
3. At the commencement of winter the
store of eggs is placed in some room that
| is not heated by a fire, but that is, at the
same time, thoroughly protected from
! frost.
! g. The packages are so arranged that
! the oldest may be used first.
! Eggs treated according to these rules
/ do not acquire the peculiar taste which is
| generally the result of the recipes In
vogue for preserving eggs.

Rearing of Children.

All what would the world be to rs
II the children were no more
We should dread the desert behind Us
Worse than the dark before.
What the leaves are TO the forest,
With light and air for food.
Ere their sweet and tender juices
Have been hardened into wood,
That 10 the world are children
Through them IL feels the glow
OF 4 brighter and SUMMER climate
Than reaches the trunks below.
Come to me, q We children
And whisper in my ear
What the birds and the winds are saying
In your sunny atmosphere.
For what are all our contrivings,
And the wisdom OF our books,
When compared with your caresses,
And the gladness of your looks
Ye are better than all the ballads
That ever were sung or said
For ye are living poems,
And all the rest are dead.
