Dirty Eggs On the Farm.

While there are few egg producers
who take the best OF care of their pro-
duct, the average farmer considers the
eggs produced on the farm by-product
and makes very little provision for
their care, aside from gathering them.
A large loss is caused by dirty eggs,
the number being enormous, and ac-
cordlng to the estimate of Secretary
Wilson of the Department OF Agricnl-
ture Shis money loss to the farmers in
the United States amounting 10 about
S., 000, 900 annually.
This loss is very largely brought
about by not gathering the eggs often
enough. In wet weather more dirty
eggs are found than at any other time.
This is caused by the fact that the
hens feet are often covered with mud
or other filth, and in going on the
nest to lay she soils the eggs already
in the nest.
An insufficient number of nests is
OltSu Tic CAUSE VI many VI oiO VII "
eggs found. Eggs are laid or the
ground and around the hay and straw
stacks, and becoming stained, are
classed as 'dirties." Again, when too
many eggs are allowed to remain in a
nest some are broken and many of the
others become smeared with broken
yolks. This condition is often brought
about by allowing the broody hens TO
use the same nests with the layers.
On farm where one nest to every
four hens is provided and the nests are
kept clean and well bedded, it is found
that very few dirty eggs are pro-
duced.
After gathering the eggs, care should
be taken not to put them where they
will become heated, or near oil, onions
or other vegetables, as they readily
absorb odors.
Although dirty eggs may be perfect
ly fresh, they invariably sell as ''sec-
onds," and when but few dirty eggs
are mixed with an otherwise fresh,
clean lot, they materially decrease the
price of clean eggs.

Erminc at the Coronation.

The finest ermine skins come from
the continent Those from America
are not nearly SO fine in quality. The
former skins have been principally
used by the best West end houses, but
a good many skins come in from Amer
lea, and a good number of these have
undoubtedly been used for conora-
ton robes.
The statement from st. Louis that
100000 skins were used for the car
of Russia's cloak caused much amuse-
ment, and is regarded by the trade
here as an example of American hui
NOR. When we come to think Of It.
a quarter million skins does seem a
bit tall, considering that at the March
sales in London, which are the big
gest OF the year. only 10000 skins
were offered. These fetched as high
as $40 shillings a timber. which Is 40
skins. while the average price was
round about $50 shillings.--London
