This is a strong solution, 40-42 de-
grees, about the consistency of mo-
lasses.
The following formula may be used
for preserving eggs; To ten quarts of
water which has been boiled and
cooled add one pint of water glass
and stir thoroughly.
Place the solution in a Jar or tub
and add the fresh eggs in sufficient
quantity to have at least two inches
of the solution above the eggs. This
quantity should be sufficient for about
five dozen eggs.
Water glass may be bought from

minous hays, if of a good quality, such
as alfalfa clover, and cowpea hay, are
good for the foal. AS the foal becomes
older a more liberal grain ration
should be provided. A yearling foal,
to grow properly, will need four or five
pounds of grain per day in addition
to what hay will be eaten.
There is no single factor in agricul-
tural production on the average farm
that is of greater importance than
good horse or mule power. This pow
er can usually be furnished more
cheaply by the production of needed
animals in that particular locality
than by purchasing them from remote
localities. In home production there
is also the added advantage of pos
sesSing animals which are thoroughly
acclimatized. Therefore If you are
the owner of a good mare do not fail
to breed her either to a good stallion
or a good jack.
If the mare is of the light type,
breed her to a good stallion of one
of the light breeds; and if Of a draft
type, breed her to a draft stallion.
The progeny of light mare bred to a
draft stallion or of draft mare to
light stallion is usually nondescript
that is not fitted to any particular
field and will not command the price
of either high-class light or high
class draft horse. BY the light type
is meant horses Of the Standardized,
Thoroughbred, American Saddle, and
similar breeds; by the draft type is
meant horses of the Percheron, Bel
gian, Shire, Clydesdale and similar
breeds. In breeding to a jack, mares
of almost any kind may be used If
sound, the best mules, as rule, be-
ing produced from the mares with the
most weight and finish. The produc.
ton of inferior animals of any kind is
seldom profitable.
