Keeping Eggs.

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-
bic. We give few Of the many meth
DDS, with this advice Make trial on
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 been
kept separate from roosters will keep
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 too
damp, or cold storage house will be
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
fertilized, kept in cool, dark place
and turned half over every other day
will keep a month or six weeks in good
condition without any other prepara-
tion.
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 or
barrels and put ia 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.
Twenty grains OF salicylic acid in
one gill of cotton seed oil may be
used for greasing the eggs all over;
then lay them in racks.
Another plan is to take bushel oi
unslaclsed lime and eight quarts OF
salt TO sixty gallons OF water, or
tthese proportions for a smallcE
quantity. Stake the lime with a por-
tion of the water, then add the rest OF
the water and salt, stir IL we'll SO that

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 a 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 ap-
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 milch 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
selling, the Pennsylvania experiment
station found in experiments in two
years that Sin round numbers we can
produce from three to five times as
much digestible food per acre by
means of the soiling crops rye and
corn or clover and corn as is produced
by pasturage, such as is represented
by our small plat" The plat in ques-
ton was believed to fairly represent
the average pasture. From feeding
trials with the above soiling crops and
pasture grass the average yield of milk

Partial Soiling.

At an Ontario farm institute, Mr..
Sills Shaver said: AS farmer among
you have tried dairying on small
scale and raising grain for market;
not being satisfied altogether with my
results Herewith, on account of low
grain prices, 1 then went into horse
raising to quite an extent, and was
quite successful until prices in that
line began to fall. Then having a farm
adapted for raising hay. sold all my
horses, except those necessary for car
rying on farm work. and all my cows
except one, and four Jersey heifers
and a pure bred Jersey bull calf.

/ would raise some Jerseys But not
knowing anything about winter dairy
ing, and only milking my cows about
seven months each year, and not
knowing how to feed my stock as
should, could not see where there

All to the nOttOm.


Fishing is an interesting pastime at
present for a large number of small
fry. Even gray-haired old fellows arm,
ed with rods and lines, are to be seen
on fair days at points OF vantage along
the docks. Tom cod and sea cells are
caught in great numbers, while once

1t will be understood that the above
is partly an estimate, but it points
very strongly in favor of soiling.
Trials at the station in Wisconsin
showed that "by soiling in summer a
certain area of land will yield double
the amount of milk and butter that it
will when pastnred."
The Connecticut Storrs experiment
station maintained four cows from
June to Nov. 1 on little less than
21I acres of soiling crops, with the ad-
dition of very light grain and straw
feed.
At the Ontario agricultural college
and experiment farm about three
fourths OF an acre of soiling cops
green clover, green peas, tares oats
and corn fodder) was sufficient, with
the addition of 252 pounds of wheat
bran, for two cows for sixty-three
days. 1--WE might expect, therefore,
to grow on about one acre sufficient
green food to feed COW for 200 days
under ordinary conditions"
II soiling is to be practiced it is inn
portant to have a succession of green
folders throughout the growing sea-
son, with each in it's best stage of
growth for feeding. There should be
no breaks in the succession and each
crop should be used as nearly as pos
sible at the time when it contains the
largest amount of valuable food con-
stituenta
THERE are more things than one to
be said in favor of the silo. The
clover will not require much extern
sive machinery or cost in handling;
the mower can be put in as soon as
the dew is off, and the product trans
ferred to the silo almost as soon as it
is gathered up. AL this makes the
grower independent of favorable
weather for curing.

ALI Oak street was in an uproar yester-
day and the store keepers between Fourth
avenue and the railroad had a long and
exciting chase after q petty thief by the
name of George Baldwin, VINO attempted
to work the snort change racket on them.
He had a partner by the name OF Frank
Fisher aud they showed themselves
greenies by the bungiing way in which
they went at the trick.
Fisher was caught in the drng store but
Baldwin took to his heels down Fourth
To Third and then east on Third to the
country with troop OF yelling and irate
men after him His legs fairly flew for he
felt the jaws Of the Jail closing behind
him and be began TO leave his pursuers In
the rear when a crowd in delivery wagon
joined the race.
Baldwin was no match for horse and
he knew il but still kept on till the crowd
got mighty close when he spied plowed
field, made for il. aud tore across the
plowed field, but the exertion WAS too
much for him and he fell to the ground
out of pure exhaustion.
He was then captured and the two were
brought TO the police station in the dellv-
cry wagon. On the way down Fisher ex-
pressed his disgust at Baldwin not being
you give them the slip;" 81 corldn't."
said Baldwin, aud with an oath half the
town WAS after me and even the women
and chilcren joined in the chase
Their plan of action was slick enough.
They entered Mat Baher's grocery store
and asked for cents worth Of chewing
gum aud gave half dollar piece as pay.
Mrs. Buhr gave them the change which
consisted OF two dimes and a quarter.
They exchanged the quarter for nickle
very quickly and then said. You have
given US only quarter. you must have
given a pickle instead of a quarter" The
good woman, not suspecting fraud. took
the nickle aud gave them quarter.
When they left. Mr.. Buhr, who had
watched the transaction closely, explained
the swindling process, ana the two started
to catch the thieves.
The two young men had by this time
reached William Goodin's drug store and
bought pack of cigsrets, but Mr.. Goodin
didn't bite. He simply nsobed Young
Fisher and held On to him while Baldwin
broke into run and furnished the excil-
ing race detailed.
Both these men'have a record. Fisher has
been in the station At various times, and
Baldwin is the man who was sent to the
county Jail this spring for stealing pair
Of pants of Petrie. He also WAS taken up
u few days after being released from there
by Ben R0yse on the charge of handing
liquor into the windows of the Jail TO the
prisoners. Each of them asked without
success that their names be kept from the
newspapers.
