EGGS NOW FOR USE
WHEN THEIR COST GOES HIGH

Experiments in preserving eggs
conducted by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in the past
year obtained best results from 10
per cent solution of water glass
that is, one part Of commercial water
glass added to nine parts Of boiled
water. Good results were obtained
with slightly weaker solution, US
ing 1 part of water glass to IA parts
of water. Better results were OBJ
tanned when the water was boiled
than when unboiled water was used.
Water.Glass Method.
1 Select a 5-gallon crock and clean
it thoroughly, after which it should
be scalted and allowed to dry.
2. Heat quantity Of water to the
boiing point, an allow it to cool.
8. When cool measure out 9 parts
of water, place it in the crock, and
add / quart of sodium silicate, stir
ring the mixture thoroughly. This
will be sufficient to preserve Is doz-
en- eggs, and viii serve as guide for
the quantity needed to preserve lar
ger numbers of eggs.
4. The eggs should be placed in
the solution. If sufficient eggs are
not obtainable when the solution is
irfst made, more -egs may be added
from time to time. Be very careful to
allow at least 2 inches of the solu-
ton to cover the eggs at all times.
5. Place the crock containing the
preserved eggs in cool, dry place,
well covered to prevent evaporation.
Waxed paper covering the top of the
crock and tied around it will answer
this purpose.
Limewater Method.
Pour a small quantity of water on
1 1-2 pounds of unslaked lime and
when this is thoroughly slaked add 5
gallons of boiled water. Allow the
mixture to stand until the lime set
ties. Then pour off the clear liquid,
add 1 pound of salt and use this for
preserving the eggs, throwing away
the sediment in the bottom of the
receptacle. Use the same directions
as recommended for the water glass
for putting the eggs in this solution.
Fresh, clean eggs, properly pre-
served, can be used satisfactorily
for all purposes in cooling and for
the table. When eggs preserved in
water glass are to be boiled. a small
hole should be made in the shell

BASE BALL ON THE INSIDE
BY BILLY EVANS.

runner on third attempts to steal
home. The batsman again creates
an interference similar to that per-
petrated in the first two plays. He so
jostles the catcher that he is unable
to touch the runner. In this case the
penalty is placed on the batsman. He
is declared out because of his inter-
ference, which retires the side and
eliminates the run.
While in some respects these plays
are specifically covered by several
rules. l doubt If any series of plays
in which the action is similar creates
more confusion. In the first situation
the batsman grievously <ofrends. His
interference killed any chance the
catcher might have had of getting the
runner at second. 1t is obvious he
should suffer for the offense by being
declared out. Since it would be un-
fair to let a runner advance on a play
in which the fielder making the play
Is sent back to his original base.
In the second case, where the run
ner on third tries to steal home with
one out and the batsman interferes
with the play, many people think the
batsman, as in situation No. /, should
be declared out and the runner sent
back to third base. Such a penalty
would enable a wise batter to make
void the play at the plate any time he
believed the runner was sure to be re-
tired. To do away with such possibili-
ties the rule makers have placed the
penalty where it will do the most
justice. and with one or none out, the
runner on third is always declared
out.
However. with two men down, the
same interference with a runner on
third who is trying to steal home
results in the batsman being declared
out. Perhaps you may ask. why not
have the same ruling as in situation
No. 2, and continue 20 call the runner
out. With two down and such a hap
pening. it is necessary that some one
be called out for interference. Since
no run can be scored, regardless Of
who is called out. the penalty is
shifted back on the batsman. 1t has
been the purpose of the rule makers
in innicting penalties for the same ac-
tion to have the penalty fall where 1t
will be most severely felt.

Many peculiar plays are possible In
base ball. No matter how we'll one
imagines he knows the game. every
now and then something comes up
that gives him q new angle to a sit
uation that he rather regarded as old.
Base ball is one Of the few sports
where several different interpreta-
tions may be placed on the same play.
according to the conditions.
Perhaps no play offers an oppor-
tunity for more different rulings than
plays in which the batsman creates
an Interference at the plate. 1t must
be confusing for a spectator. with just
an ordinary knowledge of the rules,
to attend games in which he sees the
batter create an interference, and yet
sees opposite rulings rendered on
plays which seem similar. Such plays
always create a discussion and cause
many queries. I shall try to make
clear the three different rulings pos
sible. and give a plausible reason for
the change in the interpretations to
suit the occasions.
In the first situation we will assume
there is a runner on first and that he
tries to steal second. He succeeds.
but is apparently greatly aided by the
batsman. who jostles the catcher as
he is about to mako the throw. In
this play the batsman is called out for
interference, while the runner who
has apparently stolen second Is sent
back to first, because no bases can be
run on such an interference.
In the. second situation we will as
sumo there is a runner on third. one
man out and the runner on third at
tenipts to steal home. The batter
realizes the play will be close and de-
cides to try some wise" stun and
prevent the catcher from making q
play at the plate on the runner COM
ing home. We will also assume the
Interference was the same as in the
first situation. Despite this, a differ
ent ruling is made. The penalty is
shifted from the batsman to the run
| ner, for in this case the runner COM
ing home from third is declared out
and the batsman is allowed to con-
tinue at bat
In situation No. there is a runner
on third and two men out. when the
