Keeping Eggs Fresh.

In Germany eggs are kept fresh
for any length of time by simply i'm
mersing them in a ten per cent. solu-
ton of silicate of soda. commonly
called liquid glass" This produces
the formation of a coating which rem
ders the eggs perfectly alright. The
eggs so treated retain their fresh
taste for many months. The best
proof of the efficacy of this treatment
has been furnished by the fact that
such eggs, after having been kept for
whole year. we're Matched and the
chickens were strong and healthy. The
preserving solution is best prepared
by dissolying one pound of liquid glass
in four quarts of cold water. The eggs
are then immersed in this solution
which should be kept in a glazed
earthenware vessel, and the eggs are
kept in the solution FOR q short time

he gave Miss Williams many pres

Fluffy Headpiece Drops on Helmet of BIuecoat

rHICAGO.-This is the story of a
~ hat and a void in the heart of
policeman. And ii is a romance, too,
but only the first chapter has been
written.
Policeman Harry Bossen. he of the
stern visage and once of the scornful
eye, stood the other day on the corner
Of West Washington street and North
Fifth avenue, blowing his whistle and
scowling quite fiercely at the women
who scurried past.
Women were born to be in the
way" he muttered to a brother police
man. IF 1t wasn't for them a po-
liceman's life would be soft"
And then the hat entered the life
of Bossen, From the elevated struc.
ture above came a woman's gasp.
With it came the hat. Then a sudden
luttering Of skirts and the owner OF
the head decoration hurried into her
train.
1t is not part of the story that

LITTER NEEDED BY POULTRY
One Of Most Essential Requirements
of Chicks, as 1t Promotes Growth
and Development.
CBy c. c. sHERLOCK.l

Outside OF feed, grit and water. LIT.
ter is the most important thing about
the poultry mousse 1t induces exercise.
which is essential TO the growth and
development of the chicks. The
poultryman should always be careful
as to the material he supplies for the
litter Be sure it is clean and dry
never use musty or moldy litter. II
will be disastrous. Many hens have
been killed in musty litter.
The litter should be Of a material
easily digested, for 1t is a wellknown
fact that the fowls consume a large
per cent. of their litter. Dry leaves
make a good litter, but cannot be di.
gested Straw is excellent for the
older fowls, but 1t is not advisable for
the baby chicks.
Cut clover or cut alfalfa make the
best litter one could provide for the
chicks. 1t is easily digestible, inexpen.
sive, and is easily procured. Sand
makes a good scratch material, but
the little chicks are apt to eat too
much of it, as they do not have very
good idea as to what they should eat
A mixture OF cut clover and sand
sprinkled on the floors of the brood
ers is hard to beat.
Never allow the litter to become
damp. Dampness is the greatest
enemy of chicks. Remove it every day
and oftener if the weather is YER,
damp.

What CoIors the Blood.

The color Of blood is due chiefly to
iron in the little blood cells. When
the iron Is kept in these little blood
cells, which are living and travelling
around in the blood vessels, the color
Is red. Hit the skin hard enough to
break some Of the little blood vessels
beneath the surface and the little red
cells. escape from the injured blood
vessels. wander about for awhile in
the tissues and die. When they die
the iron that made them red before
then changes to black and blue color
ing. After awhile this iron is taken
up by the glands called the lympha-
tics, and made over again into nice
red cells. The iron is taken up much
more quickly by the lymphatics II the
black and blue spot is rubbed and
massaged-St. Nicholas.

Alaying flock fhens will drink

Hens will not lay when permitted

A large part Of the food for poul'
try should be grains because they are
natural grain eaters.
Green food Of some kind is neees-
sary to make hens do their best In the
line of egg production.
All laying and growing chickens
must have some kind Of meat food in
order to do their best.
Sudden fright and excitement at
once tells on the egg crop. Never al.
low strange d5gs about where the
hens are.
Light framed birds that mature
quickly, such as Leghorns aud Minor

conditions and hens were as much
alike as possible to make the test a
conclusive one.
The pen with fifteen hens made a
profit of so cents per hen, and the
eggs laid numbered 976
The pen with twenty hens made
showing of 1908 eggs for the pen and
q profit of IL cents per hen.
The pen with twenty-five hens made
q laying record Of 1928 eggs and a
profit of 35 cents per hen.
The pen with thirty hens had an egg
production of 1900 and a profit of so
cents for ecah hen.
The experiment shows distinctly
that hens can be 50 crowded as to re-
duce the profit OF an egg farm. The
difference of twenty-five eggs per
hen for six months is great. On the
basis of fifteen TO the pen the profits
of the total ninety hens were s72 on
q basis of thirty to the pen the profits
were $50. In each case the actual cost
of feed was deducted.
