Eggs v.riously Preserved.

Eggs variously Preserved.
Eggs are preserved In many other
ways besides cold storage. Often the
preservative is effected by excluding
the air by coating, covering or immers-
Ing the eggs, some material or solu-
ton being used which may or may not
be germicide An old domestic meth
cd is to pack the eggs in oats, bran or
salt; another consists in covering the
eggs with lime water, which may or
may not contain salt In Germany
sterilization is effected by placing in
boiling water from twelve to fifteen sec
onds. Sometimes they are treated to a
solution OF alum or salicylic acid. 9th
er methods consist In vanishing with
4 solution Of permanganate OF potash,
vanishing with collodion or shellac ;
packing in peat dust. preserving in
wood ashes, treating with a solution Of
boric acid and water glass, vanishing
with vaseline, preserving In lime wa
ter. preserving In solution Of water
glass. The last three methods have
proved most successful. Infertile eggs

Farm Labor.
One of the greatest problems con-
fronting agriculture is competent farm
help that can be secured at a compen-
satlon proportionate to the net earn
ings for the farmer. Manufactures,
mining and railroads furnish employ
ment to vast number of workers who
are under trained foremen and their
wages are graduated according to the
amount of product they can turn out.
Manufacturers and transportation cor
porations are capitalized and the In
vestment Is required to earn fixed
dividend for the stockholders. The
earnings are expected to exceed the
dividends, operating expenses and fixed
charges to create a surplus fund to
conduct affairs in emergencies and dur
Ing panics without stopping dividends.
The farmer is compelled to compete
IN the open market for help to conduct
his agricultural operations. While the
farmer Is delighted If his investment
returns reasonable profit, he has no
recourse IL the seasons results are con-
Quoted at loss. The manufacturer In
tin,es of financial stringency to protect
stockholders discharges part Of his
force, reduces their wages or runs his
plant on shorter hours. The farmer
can only protect himself from exorbi-
tant wages by the purchase OF costly
labor-saving machinery.
The world moves forward and the
higher cost Of living, the increase In
value of farm lands and the higher
prizes Of agricultural products will not
soon revert to old low standards. The
farmer will not find cheap labor Of
fered in the market except by inefh-
cient employees.
Agriculture is annually becoming
more Of a business proposition and the
standard of labor advanced on the
farm. The farm laborer must under
stand modern agricultural machinery
and how to operate it to obtain employ
E1ent. Machinery is too expensive to
be trusted with inexperienced opera
tors, and the man who can skillfully
handle modern farm implements is In
demand on the farm at wage scale
that will compare favorably with the
employees In industrial enterprises.
Farmers are now practical business
men and the majority of them keep
books on farm operations and know the
amount Of their profit and loss annual
ly. Farming as a profession is becom-
Ing more attractive and diversified and
labor needs to be more skilled to meet
new conditions of agriculture. The in
ducements are potential for young men
ta qualify as farm laborers and the
field offers as brilliant prospects AS
any other profession. The farmer is
not so much in quest Of cheap labor as
efficient help and is willing to pay a
wage scale proportionate to the ability
and proficiency Of the laborer as an up
to- date farm hand.-Goodall's Farmer.

few years ago. Now this line Is be
ing taken up and will be carried on fol
all it is worth. The list is growing
longer, and the prices Of cotton and
other farm products are better than
they used to be, and the man with the
hoe is growing more Independent. The

sugar beet crop in this country last
year brought S4,5OO,OOO.
