A Plan to Preserve Eggs.

A New York electrician has devised
o scheme for the indefinite preserva-
tion Of eggs For years the only suc-
cessful method of accomplishing this
result has been to submerge the hen
fruit in lime water long enough to
close up the pores in the shell, and
kill any germs which might be lurk-
ing about. With this treatment it
has been possible to preserve eggs in
such @ state as to permit their use
three or four months after the sub.
mersion. But at the expiration OF
this time. while the eggs are in q con-
dition to be used by confectioners and
bakers, they have lost the delicacy
and freshness which make them appe-
tizing. However. il the electricians
scheme proves to be success, eggs
can be preserved for an indefinite
period in as eatable q condition az
when first laid. The treatment pro-
posed involves the placing of the egg
in vacuum chamber. 1t is q we'll
known fact that the shell is not abso.
lutely alright, and there is always
more or less air inside the outer COW
ering, which hsstens its decay. Putting
them in the vacuum chamber will have
the effect of drawing the air from the
interior. They will then be painted
with composition which will render
the shells alright. After this they
will oe packed in barrels of water and
an electric current will be Introduced
sufficient in strength to destroy any
germ life that may be present. If
the scheme is successful it will mean a
revolution in the price Of eggs in the
winter. Journal.

GROWING TOP ONION SETS.

In most farming districts little ad-
dition may be made to the income OF
the farm by growing top onion sets in
a small way, writes l.. OFallow, OF
Minnesota. These are produced on
top of the onion stalks, in a cluster,
instead of seed, AID consist OF a mum
Der of small bulbs or onIoEs. about
the size OF acorns. If planted, tnSse
produce onions which mature earlier
than those raised from seed. For
several years I have made it rule to
plant a small patch in the garden to
onions from which grow top sets.
I sell the onions early in the spring to
local village dealers for ten to seven.
teen cents a pound. In one instance
I secured thirty-tive pounds of top
sets from one-fourth bushel of onions
planted. sold these the next spring
for fifteen cents a pound. If had
given them proper care would have
obtained at least one-third larger
yield.
As soon as the frost is out of the
ground In spring, plant In rows ABOUT
two feet apart, and from eight to ten
inches apart in the row. Only
good sound onions of uniform
size and good quality should be
used. They. must have been
raised the year before from seeds, or
onion sets. Plant very shallow, so
the top of the onions will show above
ground. Keep perfectly free from
weeds while growing. After the top
sets have matured fully, gather and
store in dry cool place. Do not AL
low them to freeze in winter. It is
best to 60 slow about raising top
onion sets for market, until n trade
has been established. Sometimes I
have found it necessary to leave the
onion sets with the grocery dealer,
and let him sell as much OF them as he
could. with the privilege to return
any that he could not dispose o.. By
taking goods at his store in exchange
for them, he made no charges for sell.

German lawyers are prepared to-
undertake the performance Of profess
eional duties at rate Of remuneration
which would be deemed ridiculous In
England" the Law Jou:nal says. So
we gather from the interesting report
which Mr.. Brickdale has written as a,
result Of the investigation he made,
with the authority Of the treasury, into
the working Of the system Of registra!
ton Of title to land in Germany and
Austria Hungary. The Zee Of a Ger
man lawyer who is employed in con-
nection with the transfer Of registered
land Is on the same scale as the fee Of
the registry. Hence, II the value OF the
land Is f100, the lawyer ID entitled TO
the magnificent sum Of Z shilling 3
pence, while In thousand-pound
transaction he gets 80 shilings. 1t is
to be hoped that no reader Of Mr.. Brick
dale's report will be led to believe that
because such arrangements arc made
In Germany" they are possible In En-

FUCHSIAS.

There are few flowers which give
more pleasure than the fuchsia; but
they are sc subject, in our country,
to the attack of the red spider
that the cultivator soon gets out OF
heart with them; but since these lit.
tie insects can be so readily mastered,
and the method OF their destruction is
now SO widely known, they are again
getting into popular use. They do
not like the open sun, and for this
reason they are particularly we'll
adapted to city yards, where buildings
and fences are a protection during the
warm parts of the day from the suns
rays. They do not care for absolute
shade, as, for instance, under trees or
arbors; they seem to want an abun.
dance of light and air, simply claiming
protection from dry heat. Spring
raised plants bloom freely in August.

DRAGGING CORN srUBBLE LAND.

So soon as frost is we'll out of the

heavy drag should bo run over the
corn. stubble of last year. 1t is an ex-

that when it is turned under the fur

Land thus treated makes an excellent

Live to q Good Old Age.

Last year an old peasant named Ivan
Kouzmln was reported to have Travelled
from Moscow to Kief at the age of 140
He was said to be in good health. He
had formerly been coachman to Count
Sheremetief, but in 1910 was sent to
Siberia, where he spent fifty-four years
returning in 1894. His Is not the only
instance in which a Siberian exile has
survived to extreme. old age. Two years
ago there was said to have died In Sa.
mara one Lavarentii Efimoff, who had
attained the age Of 80. According t0
the newspaper reports Of him he took
part as a boy in the famous Pugatchef
rebellion in the reign of Catherine the
Great, and for his share in that brief
but sangulnary outbreak spent thirty
years of his life in Siberia. Recently
there was said to be living In the vii,
lage Of vank (Saratof governmeno an
Armenian aged ITO, the proud ancestor
Of ninety-one descendants, Of whom
seventy-one were still living. His name
was David Kazarian. Another Armen.
ian, a priest named Ter-Mikaellantz,
was reported not long ago to be living
at Gori in the Caucasus at the age Of
10S. He was still able to walk to
church, and once a year performed the
liturgy. If recent history In the Turkish
empire continues to repeat itself such
instances Of longevity among Armen.
ians seem likely to become rare.-Lon.

AGRICULTURAL TOPICS,
OATS AND PEAS FOR FEED.

As the earliest crop to be used for
soiling, there is nothing better than
oats and peas mixed and sown at the
rate of 2a to three bushels per acre.
They will not yield SO much weight as
fodder corn, but that cannot be grown
large enough to cut before we'll into
August. As for peas and oats, by that
time they will have been entirely used
up. From the earliest cutting, about
the last Of May, second light crop
will sprout, which may be cut month
later.

For Gold.

il new amalgam has been discovered
which Is wonderful substitute for
gold. It consists Of ninety-four parts
Of copper to six parts Of antimony. The
copper Is melted, and the antimony is
then added. Once the two metals are
sufficiently fused together little mag
nesium and carbonate of lime are added
to increase the density Of the material
The product can be drawn, wrought,
and soldered just like gold, which 1t al
most exactly resembles on being polish
ed. Even when exposed to the action
of ammoniacal salts or nitrous vapors 1t
preserves it's color. The cost Of making
It Is about 25 cents pound avoirdup0ls.
