The D. |. A. A. is now consider
ing designs for the official State
badge to be awarded to those who
pass the test for bronze badges

ditions:

Water-Glass April Eggs
to Use in December

April and May are the months
above all others in which to "pue
down" fresh, cheap spring eggs in
water-glass for next December s
shortage and high prices. An add
ed advantage in preserving the
eggs now is that they are not sub
jected to hot weather conditions so
that they are much better subjects
for successful preservation.
Directions
If the commercial water-glass
solution is to he used mix one and
one-half quarts with eighteen
quarts Of pure water; water that
has been boiled is preferable. Stir
the mixture until the ingredients
are thoroughly mixed. A stone jar
is the most suitable vessel for the
mixture. Two eight-gallon Jars
are sufficient for thirty dozen eggs
using the amount Of solution jus,
prescribed. After the water-glass
lis thoroughly mixed pour it into
the vessels to be used, being sure
that the vessels are absolutely
clean. Place the eggs in the water
glass, see that those at the top ar,
submerged under at least twt
inches Of the liquid, and cover tn,

ton. Put the Jars IN a cool place
where they will be undisturbed
during the year.
Strength of Solutions
The water used should be boiled
several minutes to thoroughly
sterilize it and should be cooled
before using.
One gallon of liquid waterglass
should be diluted with ten gallons
of the sterilized water, or one
quart to ten quarts OF water, to
give the solution the proper
strength.
One pound of the dry form thor
oughly stirred into two gallons of
lsterilized water gives the proper
strength.
! Four pints of the water-glass
preserving strength will cover
one gallon of eggs.
Suggestions
Do not preserve dirty eggs OF
eggs that have been washed. Wash
ed eggs will not keep, because the
protective gelatinous coating has
| been removed by the washing; and
dirty eggs will become tainted II
| flavor.
Do not use the same liquid pre-
servative more than one year.
In preparing to boil eggs whlcl
have been preserved in water-glas'
prick a small hole through th'
| large end before placing them il
the water. The pores Of the shell
have been sealed by the water
glass solution, and without the pm
hole the expanding air within TIL
shell would burst it.

Oil Activity

Activities in the Alaska oil pools extending from Ad- miralty island on the south to Cold Bay on the west, will start about June 1, ac- cording to those most fam lllar with the situation. It is believed at least a half dozen drills will be in oper- ation in the early fall, and if the formation proves true to ] prediction several of these drills should be in the oil before the winter comes. Last week the Thane syndi- cate signed a contract to place a standard drill by June 18th on the Yataga property. In the Cold Bay section the Midwest Con- pany of Wyoming has raised a million dollars to drill the Finnegan- Hayden holdings. This company recently pur- chased a gas powered boat at Seattle to be used to trans port freight from Kodiak. The Maas holdings will be drilled by Los Angeles cap ital, a large sum having been pledged for this pur- pose, and adjoining the Hub bel interests will operate a standard drill. The Thane weeks syndicate announced some time ago it's intention of drilling at Katalla, and the Chilkat Oil Company is producing about sixty bar res of high grade oil a day.
