Packing and Shipping Eggs.

Packing and Shipping Eggs.
Eggs, especially in summer, should be
not only sound but fresh laid. Stale
eggs, though apparently sound, are sure
to reach market in bad order, or will
change 50 rapidly that dealers lose money
on them. Always ship at once while
fresh. Use s~tron:,. stiff barrels. Tor
packing, use fine, kiln-dricd cut straw
Or wheat chaff. Some Canadian packers
use dry oat-hulls, which answer o good
purpose. Never use oat or buckwheat
chaff, and never use new oats, straw or
chat, as they sweat and rot the eggs in
a short time.
Place first a little long. soft straw or
hay, two or three inches in thickness,
evenly over the bottom of the barrel,
then,about the same depth of packing,
then a layer of eggs, laid upon the sides,
evenly embedded in the packing, with
the ends toward the barrel, about one
inch from the slaves. Cover the layer
with three-fourths or one inch of pack
ing, rubbing it we'll in between the eggs
with the hand. Cover the last layer with
about three inches of packing, and then
the same quantity of long straw or hay
rs at the bottom, filling so high that the
head must be pressed in by a lever or
other mechanical power, thus holding
the contents SO firmly that they cannot
shift or loosen in the barrels.
N winter, to guard against frost, use
more packing, leaving the eggs farther
from the sides of the package. One of
the chief causes of failure in packing
eggs is using too little packing at the
top, bottom and sides of the barrel. Do
not crowd too many into the package,
and never let the eggs touch each other
in the layers. For IN ordinary -four
barrel seventy dozen arc quite sufficient.
Put about -four and onc-half dozen in the
first layer, and increase onc-half dozen
to he layer up to six and one-half dozen
in the two middle layers, then decrease
at the same rate. It is we'll to shake the
barrel gently after each layer is put in,
first placing a light follower upon the
layer. The count Should he carefully
made, and honestly marked on the bar

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Picking Pears.

"a Pear Grove" says in the New
York Tribune: Some sorts Of summer
pears ripen we'll upon tho tree, and re.
quire no other special care but to usc
them as soo1 as fully fit, for their decay
is very speedy. Others are much tho
better for being taken into a cool room
to ripen rs soon as the septum is formed
so that they will dctach there. When
taken into cool, still air, ripcning is less
rapid, there is less danger Of rot ut the
CORE, and there is mole j~uciness and Ga
vor, and more delicacy of color.
1t is very COMMON to see pears which
arc hard and green in October, left on
the trees, or otherwise neglected as worth
less, when they orc really capable Of
ripening into liner maturity of tender
flesh and lich flavor than any of the
earlier sorts. Tor it is u general rule
with all fruits that those which require
the longest term to complete their growth
reach the highest perfection and value.
| The very late sorts should be left upon
the tree as long us the night frosts are
| light--usually till late in October.
! 1t is important to pick with care not
\ to break the stem, but to sever it at its
natural septum of partition. This leaves
Gt sealed, but if broken nearer the fruit
b leakage is opened through which juice
escapes, and the fruit soon begins to look
shrivcllcl about its base, and loses quail
lily and capacity for keeping. 1t should
lie kept covered so as to prevent draught
of air, and in a cool place not too dry.
Ripeness can be hastencd by removing
some to a drawer in a warm room, when
usually a high color and favor will be
developed, if the Cue season has arrived.

Governor Zulick's despicable action, in going through the farce of a trial to get rid of tl.e Insane Asylum Commis- sioners, in order to make room for three hungry Democrats, has aroused even a greater storm of condemnation that his celebrated proclamation. Even the Dem. ocratic journals of the Territory-that is the respectable portion of them-con. demn his action, for which, indeed, there is absolutely no excuse. It is the ac- tion of an arch demagogue, who allows himself to be used as a tool, by a set of hungry office.seekers. It is not at all likely that the gentlemen whom he has insulted by this mock trial will pay any attention tothe demand .hatthcy shall step down and out. Zulick missed his voca- tion when he was accidentally shoveled into the governorship. He would be more at home as dealer in cast of gar. ments, in Chatham street, New York.

A number of colored citizens of Den ison, Texas, have sent the following pe- tition to Congress: We are the descend of people tom from Africa and brought to this country, where for POO years their children heve contributed by their labor to increase the wealth of every portion of the United States. We greatly desire to go to the land of our forefathers an1 make it our home, but have not the means of paying our passage or provid. for our immediate wants on landing in Liberia. Low wages and high rents, and a despair of doing better in the future, compel us to emigrate. The main reason urged why we should remain here is that our labor and our votes are needed in this country, but we believe that the country can we'll dispense even with our presence. The attractions of Liberia are, very rich virgin lands, freedom from com. petition with any but our own race, and assurance of superior position" The petitioners ask for the passage of a bill approprlating $ioo per capita to be ex. p, led under the direction of the.Amer- can Colonization Society.

The Los Angeles Times acknowledges receipt of box of ripe aprcots, grown in Salt River Valley. They are on the market two to four weeks earlier than anything grown in California. Anyone acquainted with the fruit business knows the immense advantage gained by To- cality which can ship fruit to market, two or three weeks ahead of its competitors. There is great future for Arizona in the early fruit business.

Alarm in New Mexico.

FL PAso, May IS.-Fear exists in a number of localities in New Mexico that Geronimo and his band, who are now op. erating in northern Sonora, will cross the line into this Territory and repeat the atrocities of the fall and winter months. The Indians could now operate in south. ern New Mexico to better advantage than before, for no soldiers are convent. ent to pursue them. Residents of Dem. ing and other towns along the line of the Southern Pacific nightly see fires on the mountains in northern Mexico, which are believed to be made by rum ners sent out by Geronimo. It is be. lieved that Geronimo will endeavor to reach the Mescalero reservation and per. suade the Indians there stationed to join him. The Mescalero Indians are known to be dissatisfied and last winter they came near going on the warpath.

Another Case for Pasteur.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, May IS.- A dog belonging to Mir. A. J. Hall, a farmer living near Cabott, near this city, went mad last week, and among the animals which it wounded was a milch COW. The COW showed no signs of being affected by the wound, and it was thought that hy- drophobia would not result. Yesterday the animals showed symptoms of the disease, and at the same time the farmers two little children, who had been nour- ished with the cows milk exhibited similar symptoms and are in a critical condition, suffering the most terrible agonies. The other members are also Ill, but their symptoms are not as alarming as those of the children, and some hope is ex- pressed that they may recover.

The experiments and tests made in the
matter OF lighting the Marsac mill at

resulted in choice OF the Thompson
Houston light as the one best adapted for
the purposes required there, and it is
probable that the system mentioned will
be retained against all competition. The
Thompson-Houston company has a COM
plete system OF electric lighting-arc and
incandescent-and lively bid is now
being made for Western business. The
solid standing OF the company is com.
bined with the latest improvements in
their line, and it is not improbable that
Salt Lake may yet afford field for their
energy and enterprise, more particularly
SO in the way of lighting residences by
their improved system. The company is
represented by Mr.. ii. NJ. Ogden in the
West, and headquarters and home office
are in Boston.
