information at the fairs that other
wise we would not get. For these
reasons. as well as many others w"
are strong advocates of showing pure
bred livestock Of any kind.
We have had considerable expert
cncc in showing herds at our home
state fair. We find that each show
we make adds materially to our rcpu.
tation. which Is most valuable wnen
it comes to disposing of our surplus
breeding stock. The Show ring also
gives us a bigger vision. it broadens
our view; 1t teaches Il man to see the
defects in his own hogs. as well as
in those Of the other fellow. and it
establishes proper standards Of type
in his mind, which serves as II guide
for him in his breeding operations.

The show ring brings the exhibitor
in closer contact with his fellow

household that will take the trouble
to buy up a supply within the coming
month or six weeks and preserve It.
The process of putting away" eggs
Is altogether simple. requiring little
labor; it Is very inexpensive. costing
not more than II cent a dozen. 1t Is
certain and safe, keeping eggs in
good condition for as long as a year
without any loss and providing eggs
at the end Of that time that may be
used in place of strictly fresh eggs
for nearly all cooking purposes.
Several Good Methods.
Several satisfactory methods for
home preservation of eggs are in use,
including packing in salt. oats or bran.
covering with parrafin. vaseline, lard
or prepared ointmcnts. or immersing
in brine. salicylic acid. water glass or
lime water. Any of these methods
will keep cggs for short periods of
time. il they are stored In cool place.
but the most satisfactory among them
for preserving eggs for a longer time
is the water glass method. Tho water
glass method has been in use a long
time and has dcmonst rated that It will
keep eggs without loss for as long as
n year. 1t is conveniently carried out
and Is not expensive. Lime water is
also used satisfactorily and may be
substituted for water glass.
Dilute Water Glass.
Water glass (solublc sodium sill
cate) is a pale yellow. odorless syrupy
liquid. It. can be purchased at most
drug stores at from IS cents to $500
per gallon. 1t should not be used az
purchased but should be diluted with
boiling water, using one part Of water
glass to ten parts of the boiled water
and cooling the boiled water before
adding the water glass. II the eggs
used are strictly fresh and they float
when put into the mixture. that Is {,
sign that 1t In stronger than neccssar ~
and n little more water should be
added.
For Limo Water Method.
| II the. householder wants to use
| lime water instead of water glass. the
! following is rccOmmendcd: Slack
three pounds of good rock lime in q
| small amount Of water. This will
form a milk lime, to which add three
gallons Of water. Keep the mixture
well stirred for Il day. then allow the
excess Of lime to settle and use only
