WATER GLASS KEEPS EGGS
How a New York Poultryman Added
Many Dollars to His income,
with Little Labor.

A correspondent of the Rural New
Yorker gives mis- experience with water
glass as follows:
One pound OF commercial solution
was purchased tor the usual retail price
OF Is cents at the beginning OF April
last year, diluted with nine times its
bulk OF cold water and placed in a
stone jar OF three gallons capacity. AS
fast as gathered, IA dozen OF neW-laid
eggs, worth II cents dozen, were
placed in the solution, about all it
would cover, and the whole kept in a
cool cellar until December, when the
price had advanced to sc cents dozen.
On trial every egg was found in per-
feet condition, scarcely distinguishable
to the taste from perfectly fresh ones.
The profit on the transaction at above
prices was $2.11. To ascertain if the
solution could be again used with good
results, it was heated to the boiling point
in April of this year and nine dozen of
fresh eggs placed in it when cool. Most
of these eggs have been used since the
middle of November, and so far every
one has been in perfect condition, even
making omelets comparable to the new
laid article. AS eggs are selling locally
on a basis of 40 cents a dozen at this
season, the difference between spring
and winter prices amounts to 1924 this
year, as there is no charge for preserv-
ing liquid. Water glass solution is a
well tested egg preservative in many
parts of the world, but the question Of
it's full capacity for the purpose does not
appear to be worked out. In quantity
it is said to be quite inexpensive and it
probably could be purchased cheaply by
oranges and farmers clubs, but the
price of 25 cents pound bottle can
not be considered unreasonable when so
packed and retailed. The 10 per cent.
dilution as above is usually recon-
mended for egg preserving, but some
authorities say 3 per cent. is enough.
This would cut the cost down nearly
67 per cent, but the 10 per cent. dilu-
ton used two years only costs about
one cent for each dozen eggs and seems
to be perfectly safe.

THE HEN, IN ROMAN EYES.
Extracts from Dissertation Written
by an Agricultural Authority
of Olden Times.

The old Roman farm writer. Colum-
ella, gives the view of the hen and
rooster which prevailed in the Roman
world nearly 1900 years ago. He
says:
1T is not advisable to buy any but
such as are very prolific. They should
be of plumage very red or tawny.
with black wings. Let the whole be of
the same color. or near approach to
1t. but, if of any other color, let
white fowls be avoided, for they are
tender and less robust; neither is it
easy to find specimens of them thai
are prolific.
LET the breeding hens be of a
choice color, of robust body, square
framed, large and broad breasted,
large headed, with small, erect, bright
red comb and white ears, and of those
thus characterized let the largest be
procured, and not with an equal num-
Der of claws.
Those hens are reckoned of the
purest breed which are five-clawed,

male-like appendage is rarely fruitful,
and when she does sit breaks eggs
with her sharp claws.
THE cocks should be lustful COL
ored like the hens; with the same
number Of claws, but taller; proud of
carriage; combs erect and blood-red,
eyes brown or black; beak short and
hook ed; ears We y large and white;
wattles looking whittier from their
shining, and hanging down like a
hoary beard, the feathers of the neck
or name varying, but preferably from
yellow to golden, and spreading down
over the shoulders; the breast broad
and muscular; the wings brawny,
like arms; the tail lofty, and COM
posed of a double row of arching
feathers, alike on each side; the thighs
ample, and usually thickly clothed
with coarse feathers; legs sturdy, not
long, but armed as it were with dan
gerous spurs.
Even when neither prepared for
fighting, nor for triumph of victory,
their temper should be shown to be
highly generous, naughty, active,
watchful, and given to crow often
also not easily alarmed; for some
times it will be needful for them to
repel attacks and to protect their con-
jugal flock"

PATRIOTISM OF JAPANESE.
From Empress Down to Peasant Girl
All Make Sacrifices to Help
Relief Fund.

Societies and associations have been
organized in Japan to relieve the fam
lilies of the fighting men, and every one
makes certain contributions to the relief
fund. Some men contribute money or
goods, some their labor, and most of the
lint and bandage used for the wounded
are the works of women, from the en-
press down to the peasant girl, writes
Nobushige Amenomori, in Atlantic.
Little boys and girls willingly forego
their daily sweetmeats, and give the
small moneys thus saved to the relief
societies. A boy II years old in country
school made one day a contribution of
two yen. 1t was thought too much for
country boys gift. The school-teacher
and the alderman of the village suspect
ed the money might have been given the
lad by his parents to satisfy his vanity;
in which case it should be admonished
against. An inquiry was accordingly
made, and brought out the fact that the
boy had actually earned the money for
the purpose by devoting his play hours
to the making of straw sandals. Even
some criminals working in prisons have
made several applications to contribute
their earnings to the funds, though
their wishes have not been complied
with. In every village compact has
been made that those remaining at home
should look after the farms of those at
the front, so that their families may not
be disappointed of the usual crops.
Since the outbreak of the war the gov.
ernnent's bonds have been twice issued
at home, and each time the subscription
more than trebled the amount called for,
the imperial household taking the lead
by subscribing 100000 900 yen. Thus the
hardships of the war are cheerfully borne
by every man, woman and child in the
land.

How to Locate the BOOSTS

The warmest airs gear the roof; and
it is safe to add that the most impure air
is there ALSO Make the roosts low, both
for summer and winter. This will large
ly prevent lameness, as high roosts cause
injuries, and the lower air is purer, more
enjoyable and more plentiful. If venti-
lation could be afforded from below, al
lowing impure air to escape at the top,
it would be of advantage; but as the
wind frequently shifts in its direction, it
may happen that the air will flow in
from the top instead Of going out at that
location. Something will be gained by
making the roosts low, and the lower the
better, but not so low as to induce the
fowls to roost on the nests or something
higher, as each aims to get on the high
est perch.-Farm and Fireside.
