Origin of One Dairy.

The advantages of soiling, or feed
ing animals largely or wholly on
green forage crops in the barn instead
of pasturing them, says government
bulletin, are that less land is required
to maintain given number OF
animals, the food supply can be better
regulated, the animals do not waste
their energy in searching for food, and
the manure can all be saved and APP
piled to the soil. The arguments for
partial soiling are that the amount OF
feed furnished by pastures is very ir-
regular, being usually abundant and
of good quality early in the season,
but falling off later from drouths or
early frosts. In case of mich COWS
unless some supplementary food is
given at such times the milk flow di-
minishes and the cows fall off in flesh.
Concerning the relative amounts
of food furnished by pasturing and by
soiling, the Pennsylvania experiment

Keeping Eggs.

| keeping Eyes.
While there is yet no known process
that will keep eggs for any length Of
time as good as they are when fresh,
they can be kept so as to be marketa
bles We give few of the many meth
DDS, with this advice: Make trial or
a small scale at first, and then If your
success warrants you can increase next
year.
To start with, only strictly fresh
eggs can be preserved, and in packing
they must not touch one another, as
one bad egg coming in contact with
another will soon spoil the whole lot
The eggs of hens that have beer
kept separate from ROSTERS will keer
better than those that have been fer
| tilted.
Another item is to store the eggs in
place where the temperature is as
even as possible. A cellar, If not toe
damp, or cold storage house will be a
good place.
The temperature should be kept as
nearly 60 degrees as possible, and the
more even the temperature the better
they will keep. Eggs fresh and not
fortified, kept in q cool, dark place
and turned half over every other day
will keep month or six weeks in good
condition without any other prepare
| ton.
One method of keeping is to make a
strong whitewash and thoroughly i'm.
merse the eggs in this, taking care
that the whole surface of the shell is
coated. After they are dry put them
on racks in such way that they can
be turned readily.
Another plan is to take boxes OF
barrels and put in q layer of salt and
then layer Of eggs, setting the eggs
on end and taking care not to let
them touch each other.
Some prefer to use finely sifted coal
ashes, packed in the same way.
