AGE OF EGGS.

1t is said that the age of eggs, one of
these questions so important to the
thrifty housewife, may be determined
with a passable degree of accuracy by
means of a very cheap and simple test.
If an ounce of good table salt be dis
solved in 10 ounces of water-roughly
speaking, a tablespoonful of salt to a
drinking glass and a quarter Of water
"a newly laid egg or n not more
than two days old, placed in the solu-
ton it will sink to the bottom at once.
An egg three days old will sink more
slowly and will float without touching
the bottom of the vessel or perhaps
touch it and bound upward on the YES
sci being moved. An egg four or five
days old will float quite clear of the
bottom, and if pushed downward will
rise again and maintain a sort of MA
hornets cofin" poise midway between
bottom and surface. And the older
the egg the higher it foat, until, of
course. the equilibrium is established,
when, if it were a year of age, it could
rise no higher. 1t will suffice for ordi-
nary household purposes if a table
spoonful of salt be dissolved in a full
glass of water. The egg that sinks so
that the major portion of it is below
the surface may be accepted as fairly
fresh, while that which Shows q large
portion upon the surface must be re-
garded WYth suspicion.

not feed them alone, o oftener than
every second day. If fed too many
their eggs will have light coiored yolks,
which a feed of corn, corn meal or
clover hay will remedy. Food which
makes yellow butter will make yellow
yolks.

writer, swamp or bog land which will

A PROMISES.
correspondence of the Progressive Farmer

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer
LEXINGTON, N Q.
The world is full of promises at the
present time. Men filling almost every
station in life r making promises,
from the President of these United
States down to the town constable.
But the American people, and espe-
cially the laboring classes, have long
since learned that it is not what is
promised that does them good, but the
good things they actually get.
Men, from the Presidency down,
have too often deceived the creduIous
people. But Unjust not suffer myself to
be led off by noticing how the people of
America have been cursed by broken
promises, as my chief object in this
communication is to notice a commu
nication published in your valuable
paper CHE PROGRESSIVE FARMER) of
July 23d, 1895, headed 'Alliancemen,
r lad this"
l will not attempt to enumerate all
the promises made in the article refer
red to, but simply refer to the date of
the paper, its heading, etc and then
ask all to read for themselves. I can
and do assure you and it's author that
L have read it carefully and with great
interest, as I always do everything
looking to the upbuilding of downtrod-
zen and suffering humanity. But the
question IN my mind is is upon what
ooes all the good things promised in
SAID article rest as a basis for the fuI.
hllment9 Are we to understand tba+
all the good things promised in said
article would be the actual outcome ~
a sum of money, if raised for f~actonr
purposes equal to IS per capita for az
cry Allanceman in North Carolina.
Or shall we understand il as naoo,
