Tint Low Animal. MN.

Instead of the highest, man is IN
some respects the lowest OF the animal

for the mere sake of killing. For one
being to take the life of another for
purposes of selfish utility is bad
enough. conscience knows. but the in

victims by armed and organized packs.
just for pastime is beyond character
ization. The human species is the only
species of animals that plunges to such
depths Of atrocity. Even vipers and

Preserving Eggs.

Cold storage for the preservation of
eggs is not available in many cases, so
one of the experiment stations has
been investigating the most economical
and effective methods that can be used
by farmers for this purpose and reports
in favor of water glass. The spelling
of eggs is due to the entrance of air
carrying germs of decomposition
through the shells. Originally the shell
has a surface coating of mucilaginous
matter. which prevents the entrance of
these harusful organisms, but if this
coating is removed or s0ftcned by
washing or otherwise the keeping quail
ity of the EGG is much reduced.
Packing eggs in lime, salt and other
products to keep them for winter use is
based on the principle of preventing
the entrance of these germs. Out of 90
methods for the preservation of eggs
tested the three most effective ones
We're found to be coating the eggs with
vaseline, preserving them in lime water
and preserving them in water glass.
BY the latter method, the application.
of which does not cost more than q
cent a dozen. no appreciable differenc'
was observed in eggs that had beeI.
kept nine months. Fresh eggs could
not be distinguished from either in
taste or in their behavior when beaten
up for cake making.
Water glass is simply sodium or po-
tassium silicate. sodium silicate being
usually the cheaper. Water glass can
be made ut Il cost not exceeding 30
cents a gallon, and one gallon mixed
with ten times its volume Of water is
sufficient for the preservation of 80
dozen eggs The preserving process
consists in packing strictly fresh eggs
in jar and pouring the solution over
them in cool, dark place, such as
cellar
The only drawback with eggs pre-
served in a solution of water glass is
that the shells usually burst in boiling
water. This may be avoided by care
fully piercing the shells with a strong
needle. Philadelphia Record
