Our record shows that from the day we

of the same month.

some fixed standard, day or market must

be credited with them. We selected the
cash price paid in our local market or
Saturdays as the price at which to credit
our hens. Each Saturday evening wher

FRESHNESS OF EGGS.
Various Methods by Which the Tes,
May Be Made to Prove
Quality.

There are many old ways of testing the
freshness of eggs. Some of them may be
of little value. Here is one that is 60
ing the rounds. but for which we cannot
vouch. 1t may be all right: EGGS are
placed in pan of water, giving each
room enough so that its motions will
not be interfered with by the others.
The air In the egg will be governed ac-
cording to the age of the egg, IL the egg
has been kept in moderately warm
state. II the eggs are just laid they will
be motionless. IL they are more than q
week old they will partly stand on the
little end This is because the air cham
ber is in the other end Of the egg. This
air chamber grows larger as the egg be-
comes older and the moisture in 1t evap-
crates. When the eggs get still older
they will stand up straight in the water
and when very old will float.
This test, of course, says the Farmers
World, would be of no value in the case
of picked eggs or of eggs kept In cold
storage where the temperature was SO
low that the evaporation of moisture
from the eggs would be very small.

HANDY LAYING RECORD.
How an Account May Be Kept Of
the Profits from the
Fleck.

Many farmers have no idea what II
costs to keep their hens, or what is the
income from them. A simple account
book and a moments attention to make
the entry will tell the story SO at any
time one can in few moments tell just
what his hens have earned since begin.
ming the account.
II one has flock of hens at the open
ing of the year, 1t is a good plan to begin
the account then. A blank book such
as the children use in school for their ex-
ercises, costing five or ten cents, will an
swer we'll and will give space enough for
several years. II there are 81 or more
lines on each page, a page will do for q
