To Keep Eggs Fresh.

If eggs are not properly cared
for they will get stale in few
hours these hot summer days, and
eggs allowed to become stale are
an unnecessary loss.
In the first place, fertile eggs
are more difficult to keep fresh
than infertils eggs at any season
and the difficulty is redoubled at
this season. Where possible the
hens you are using for breeders
should be kept with their males
separate from the hens you keep
to provide eggs for the market
and for the home table. And no
male should be allowed with the
latter. They will lay just as well
just as many aud as large eggs
and as the eggs are free of the
fertiizing germ they will keep
fresh much longer.
Eggs should be gathered two or
three times day. As soon as
lhey are laid, the exposure to the
air aud the summer heat starts
the process of incubation, which
means the early spelling OF the
egg. When gathered, they should
be kept in the coolest place pos
sible. If you have an ice box or
refrigerator keep them there. Do
not let them come in contact with
any kind of filth or anything that
has a disagreeaols odor. L. FAR

BELIEVES In ORGANIZING.
Mr.. Lallande Wants Truck Growers
to Form Association.

Efforts are being made by JOS
eph Lallsnde, assistant general
fright agent of the Southern Pa
cihc, to induce truck growers a.
long his company's lines to form
local truck growers associations.
Prospects are excellent for the
organization of such an associa-
ton in Lsfourche parish, in and
around Lockport.
Marketing of produce is equal
ly as important as growing it,"
Mr.. Lallande said Saturday. "Tbe
trouble with truck growers in this
part of the country is that they
are not organized" Organization
will bring about proper packing
and proper marketing. A single
farmer ia often unable to effect
these things, but group of farm
ers working together can get fine
results.
The Importance of proper box
ing aud packing cannot be over
rated" These are often the de-
Gliding fectors in a sale. For in
stance, a storekesper in MISSISSIPPI
pi recently related TO mo al in
stance in point. He had on sale
in his store Texas Bermuda onions
and Louisiana Creole onions. The
Texas onions were properly sized
and cleaned aud packed in neat
boxes Of a size desirable for a
family. The Louisiana onions
were in sacks, with sizes mixed,
and were not oven properly clean
cd. So, Notwithstanding the fact
that the Louisiana Creole onions
are known to be superior to the
Bermudas, the storekeeper dispos-
cd of large number of crates OF
the BERN udas, aud had the Louis
lana onions left on his hands.
Formation of local truck grow
ers' associations is' of prime i'm
portancs to this Industry in Louis
lana. We are doing all in our
power to encourage them" L. ID.
