Egg Personalities,

The Montana Experiment Station
thus tells of some of The experiments
carried on there to test the keeping
power of eggs in various solutions:
With a view Of testing the relative
value of lime and salt mixtures and
water glass as egg preservatives, we
picked about sixty dozen eggs in two
lots. The mixtures were:
No. Lime, fresh, SA pounds; salt,
Az pounds; water, 8 gallons.
No. 2-Water glass, 1 part water
glass to Is parts water.
These eggs remained IN the solution
for about six months. When, examined
the water glass was found to be the
best pickle, although the lime and salt
served It's purpose very well; still the
whites OF the eggs preserved IN this
mixture were much more watery than
the whites of those preserved in the
water glass. These were difficult to
distinguish from fresh eggs, since the
white was quite firm and yolk stood up
upon it just as though fresh. Another
advantage in the water glass is that
it does not seem to affect the she'll OF
the egg as the lime miXture-eggs from
the lime and salt mixture being much
more liable to crack, either in cooking
or handling. We consider this matter
of preserving eggs of great Importance
in this state, since prices are so high
for eggs In the winter season. We do
not for a moment advise the selling OF
preserved eggs for fresh-laid, but we
have no hesitancy in saying that when
the market finds that these preserved
eggs seem almost as good as the fresh
eggs, 1t will certainly be willing to pay
a price which will leave a good cash
margin in favor of picking. Water
glass or sodium silicate is a liquid OF
rather a smooth, slippery consistency,
readily soluble in water. 1t may be
obtained through any druggist at a
cost of about rs cents q gallon. In
using 1t we would advise the use OF
stone jars or cocks. The water used
should be quite pure, and If O it must
be boiled. Jar should be covered tc
exclude any dirt, and kept at the tenn
perature of a cool cellar. Sometimes
the specific gravity of the solution il
greater than that of the eggs, in which
case the tendency will be for them tx
float, when they may be forced dow
by a plate or similar arrangement will
a weight on top.

THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.
Queer Freaks of the Current which is
Easily Detected.


Easily Detected.
II have been much impressed with
the Importance of small things in late
years. said an old steamboat nan to
a New Orleans Times emocrat re-
porter, land the Mississippi river has
furnished me with rather good exam
pies. I can understand now why Gaze
sar looked out upon the Nile in such
curious amazement and offered all that
he stood for to the Egyptian priest if
he would show him the source of that
wonderful river. But the antics of
the Nile look like insignificant moth
ings to me when compared with the
strange conduct of the stream that
oozes out of the earth at Itasca and
hurries on it's murky and devious way
toward the Gulf of Mexico. Towns
along the Mississippi that once stood
right on the brink of the river have
been isolated even in my day, and
there are, too, all along the course of
the stream little empires in view where
the river has ~encroached upon small
centers of population, finally eating
LlG 0dIIu away LII lOlS1n5 JIG IL
habitants to seek other quarters.
There are hundreds of these places
that are almost forgotten now, even
by the men who are constantly on the
river. What brings about these vio-
lent changes along the banks of the
river? Not floods. 1t is just the ordi-
nary doings of the stream. In the first
place the current of the Mississippi is
wonderfully swift, and the sediment
deposited at any point where resist
ance to the flow is offered is very
great. Tie a string to the neck of a
bottle and sink it with the mouth of
the bottle up and open. If held in one
place where the flow is normal, in an
extremely short period of time the
bottle will fill with sediment. Stretch
a net across the river, a net so finely
woven that nothing but the pure wa
ter of the river can pass through, and
on account of the rapidity Of the flow
and the greatness of the deposit OF
sediment, almost in a twinkling the
river would be damned at that point
Experts have admitted this. This
brings me to the point of my nara
tive. The flow Of current is frequently
interfered with by sunken boats, per-
haps by a jackstaff sticking up above
the surface. The current is diverted
by degrees, generally touching the far
side of the stream, a mile from the
point where it again meets resistance
and Immediately begins the building
of a sandbar. I have seen a thousand
examples of this sort during my ca
reer on the river, and I have known
of instances where the o o of a tret
or the mere twig Of a willow hav'
brought about similar conditions
These things have tended to make
riddle out of the river, yet the stream
after awhile, will be handled SO as t.
undo all that it has accomplished"
