As Mr.. Ball has been on the sick list for

comes as quite a surprise.
When asked to explain how he had become
SO strong in such a short time, he says:

HOW TO CLEAN EGGS.

Materially to the Poultry

The proper cleaning and sorting ofthe
egg crop, so that it will have a neat and
attractive appearance will add much to
its selling qualities. Like everything
else there is a best way for doing this.
A New Jersey Poultryman says:
Eggs all of one color and perfectly
clean make an attractive appearance
and will readily bring several cents
