is but one detail. however, and the
keeping OF the food depends upon many
other things. In the first place the re

anything is spilled it should at once be
wiped up with q damp cloth. Glass or

comes next. The old-fashioned zinc

WINTER .FED PIGS.

There is one point in pushing the win
ter-fed pigs along so that they may be
sold early, even when they have TO be
classed as light weights. though well
fattened at a little more or q little
less than 200 pounds each, which is
not much thought of i'm the Eastern
States, where n farmer keeps but one
or two hogs. but in some OF the West
ern States where they fatten them by
the hundred or thousands on a farm
each year, they like 10 get them 10 mar
ket before the visit of the assessor in
the spring, as the tax upon hundred
fat hogs seems quite sum TO those
who feel that they already bear more
than their fair share OF taxation. Thus
IL happens that the yearly report OF the
assessors is not fair indication of
the amount OF pork likely to he put on
the market. The man who has only "A

TO PRESERVE EGGS.

Have a kettle OF boiling water on the
stove, and into that dip the eggs. Let
them remain as long rs il takes you
To- count ten fast. This recipe has
been in use in. my family for forty or
fifty years. The eggs cannot be told
from perfectly fresh eggs, as the hot
water cooks that fine inner skin and
there can be no evaporation. There
is no taste of lime about them put M
in this way. Ii is fine thing for
rountry women who want TO hold for
better prices, and also for the city
woman who wants TO purchase for
future use while eggs are cheap
