One part of crude carbolic acid and
two parts of kerosene make an ex-

eggs are given to her, and at night
the box, hen and all, is carried to an

off to take food and exercise.
The boxes should be all made uni

holes by which they are suspended,
so that box may be removed from
one pair of nails to another pair any

I have torn down the long nest
rows and the patent "hide away
boxes" which are said to tempt the
hen to lay few extra eggs, and now
use the movable boxes, excepting q
few trap nests in the breeding pen

MOVABLE NEST BOXES.
They Are Easily Taken Down for
Cleaning and the Hens Seem
to Like Them.

Various arrangements for nesting
boxes in the henhOuse, have been
suggested, but the best is, for all gen
eral purposes, the plain box hung on
two nails so that it can be taken
down easily. The groceryman's box
pile will furnish an abundance of ma
terial to select from, as the boxes
do not need to be uniform IN size
About 10 isehes square ans five
inches deep is what is wanted. Nail
two cleats to the back, allowing them
to project six inches above the box
Through these bore holes by which
the box is hung on two tenpenny
nails driven in the walls of the build
ing.
The merit of these nests lies in

CLEANING THE EGGS.
No Other Little bob That Can BE Done
Around the Farm Yields Better
Casz, Results.


1t is remarkable how many soiied
eggs may be seen in the country
stores and elsewhere. Many make
no attempt to clean them and many
more do not know how to do it prop
erly when they make the attempt.
Stained and smeary eggs hurt the
sale to marked degree, as it is not
only matter of tastefulness, but it
gives the eggs a stale look.
Eggs all Of one color and perfect
ly clean make an attractive appear
ance and will readily bring several
cents more per dozen than dirty
lot, particularly when quality goes
with appearance and the one is gen
orally an Indication of the other. An
egg is improperly cleaned when it
is wet too much and not rubbed dry
with dry cloth. Some, when they
see spots of dirt on eggs put them
in a pan of water and wash them
like potatoes. There is, on the fresh
ly laid egg, a mucilaginous covering
which gives it velvety appearance
peculiar to new eggs. Water re-
moves this, making the egg have an
older appearance and destroying its
keeping qualities, as this covering
makes the she'll impervious to air.
An egg, then, If it is not much soiled.
should merely be moistened where
necessary and rubbed dry. If the
blemish is in the nature of a stain. a
little powdered securing brick will
help, and If this is not effective vine
gar may be used in addition. In this
way any stains may be removed from
an egg. Sometimes they have to be
put in water, but do not do it unless
it is necessary, and then rub dry
afterwards. If this is not done they
| will look soiled and dingy. Eggs
should be collected twice or more
| times a day.-G. Davis, in Ohio

The strined Squash Beetle,

The easiest and perhaps the most ef-
fective method is mechanical protec
ton. Cover the hills with a net or
cloth with finer mesh than common
mosquito bar. The adults may be
killed by Paris green. Mix with land
plaster, one to five, and dust upon the
leaves of the plant, or spray it on in
solution. The larvae can be killed by
using tobacco dust or pulverized stems
In the soil about the hill. Many have
succeeded fairly well by busting the
hills with common road dust.-Ohio

ranged their programs to correspond
with the difference in time. The first
Of the program was the Grafton and
music in the hall. Rev. G. e. Adams
delivered the Grafton, which was right
to the point. He was followed by a
reading by Miss Mearns, who in re-
Spouse to an encore gave Scotch reci-
tation "Cuddle Doom" Music was
furnished by the band and several
songs sung by the choir H. J. IHeath
and sons also furnished some good
music with fife and drum. The parade
took place at two O'Clock. Our bust
ness men made very creditable show
ing in the floats prepared, more especi-
ally on account of the shorthess of time
to prepare after the rain. After the
parade the games were called. At
about o'clock the game of ball be-
tween the Florita nine and the Delhi
boys was called. The Delhi boys took
the bat, the first three being famed
out. FloIita nine then took the bat
aud was served the same. The game
was good one all through-no kicking
or quarreling as is often the case. AT
ter the game of ball the tug of war was
called between the married and single
men, resulting in victory for the
married men in two straight pulls.
Several races followed, taking up the
time till lunch. The evening attrac-
tons were the fire works and the dance
in the hall. For description of the
fire works we would refer you to DR.
