Lime aud Egg Shells.

1t has not been demonstrated that
oyster shells or lime in any form pro-
duces egg shell Tor rather shells for the
eggs, as there are thousands of hens
that are in no manner provided with
oyster shells, says Farm and Fireside.
1t is true, however, that oyster shells,
being sharp, assist in grinding the food
Carbonate of lime is insoluble, and tho
lime for the egg shells must conse-
quently come from that which can be
digested and conducted to the eggs
through the blood. AS nearly all
kinds of food contain lime in a
soluble form, by combination with
vegetable acids, as well as in
the form of inorganic salts that
are soluble, the process of covering the
eggs with shells goes without the aid of
substances that are insoluble. There is
one source of soluble lime, however,
that is frequently overloolled-the wa
ter-which holds lime in soluble form
when it abounds in carbonic acid. Hard,
limestone water contains lime, and the
hens can, by drinking it, secure more
lime in convenient form than from
oyster shells When a hen lays eggs
with soft shells, the cause is due not to
the lack of lime, but to the condition OF
the hen, as she is then, as a rule, in an
overfat condition. TO this cause may
be traced all the eggs with soft shells,
