There ere other systems adopted -

have given are the chief English ones
There IS another BY which It Is claimed
eggs can be kept fresh for q long time
and that Is BY dipping them into wax
or paraffne. but this is a tedious meth
Cd. and one that Involves much time
and labor
The very best way Of preserving eggs
is by freezing them, and this j. the
only way. We think. By which eggs can
be kept quite fresh and good. OF course
there are very few poultry keepers who
are able to 90 this az very ie# possess
a freezing chamber and are thus able
70 freeze their eggs. For this reason
we have put q last. as TO the ordinary
poultry keeper Il is quito Useless.
Too much Importance cannot be at
tached to having the eggs perfectly
fresh when they are put down. and un-
less they are in this state they VIII
never keep. No egg should be put
down that is more than twenty-iouf
hours old, and even less than this Is
advisable.
As to whether fertile or infertile
eggs are the better for preserving. Il -
a difficult matter 10 determine, We
think-and several experiments that
have been made 80 to prove it-that

agree that when a pig gets an apnle
containing a worm there is no danger
that the worm will cause any damage
to the future apple crop. But as an
insect destroyer the pig Is nowhere
with the sheep. The trouble with the
pig Is that Il is too much like a man,
when It lies down and goes to sleep
II is oblivious OF all It's surroundings
Il sleeps just as soundly and snores
just as loud as its human cousin. and
when an apple drops IL doesn't hear IL
or 60 for It until It's sleep is out The
instinct OF the worm teaches II TO get
out Of the apple as quickly as possible
after Il drops have stood and
watched an apple after Il struck the
ground. and seen the worm come hust-
ling out IN hurry ahd go for some se-
cure place. and before the pig gets the
apple the worm Is IN some safe hiding
place. Not 30 with the sheep; they
never sleep SO soundly but they viii
hear an apple falling rods away. and
they are up and there before the worm
can get out, and that worm Is travel
ing 70 the bourn whence no worm ever
comes back to curse the apple grower

Oman averaged Mexican sheep hocl
pumbers about 1000 and there were
ten or more hillygoats with every hoch
/ saw on the range, said A, G Grim.
shaw. who recently returned to New
York after a SIX months stay In Mex
leo and the West. Il learned that the
goats are kept with the aock as lead.
ers Being venturesome and intelli'
gent they will 90 anywhere the shep-
herd directs and the silly sheep, who
might otherwise halk or stampede al
some trifing obstacle or alarm, follow
them unhesitatingly. The goats set the
pace for the flock. as they are brisk
untlrlng walkers. keep the sheep on the
move, saving the shepherd much trou-
bic.
THE Mexican shepherd also has his
dog. though not a true blue clear-cut
handsome animal like the Scotch col
lie. The dogs are mongrels. IN all va
rietles and degrees. the only point 81
uniformity among them being their
extreme ugiiness IN appearance and m
disposition toward strangers. Some
are shaggy beasts with pointed mhs-'es
and might al little distance be easily
mistaken for wolves But ugly and
mean as they are. the Mexican shep-
herd has the art Of tanning them so
that they are as seryiceable as is the
collie to the shepherd Of the Scottish
moorlands. The Mexican sheep dog Is
loyal to his master and quick to under
stand Many a Mexican shepherd owes
his life to his dog, who notified him
Of the sneaking approach Of hostile In
dlans or OF their ambush in his path
ahead.
Returning to the original subject,
pair Of goats once led aock on a
long Journey. A shepherd Of Valencia
county. New Mexico, away from the
home camp. had the misfortune 70 lose
bis dog through the attack Of a noun
tain lion and to break his leg on the
same day. Had the dog been alive he
could have sent him to the home range
to summon assistance. As IL was, he
had 70 see the sheep wander away.
while he dragged himself to the place
where his provisions were stored, and
waited for such help as chance might
bring him. Five days later the sheep,
led by the corporal goats appeared at
the home ranch, eighty miles away
They had crossed two mountain ranges
by path OF their own finding. and out
Of a fock OF 1900 sheep only seven
we're missing There was, Of course,
much good luck IN this, for a dash OF
timber wolves among thea would not
only have meant the killing Of many
sheep on the spot but would have scat
tered the rest OF the aock far and Wide.
The marvel was the intelligence Of the
goats in returning by an unfamiliar
path TO the place where they had been
bred and the implicit faith OF the sheep
In their leadership OF course the ar
rival Of the sheep at the home ranch
led 70 the sending out Of a searching
party for the shepherd. He was
