There is almost no air cell at the large
end and the yOlk outline is only family
visible. A fixed air cell Of One-eigith
to three-siXteenths of an inch in depth
indicates fresh egg, as eggs run gen
orally. A larger air cell with NOV
to sizes and fluctuations-a stale egg
or one becoming weak and Watery.
Very small dark spots sometimes seen
usually are blood clOts. Large dark
spots, blood rings, and shadows are
due. to heat and termination, and in
dictate first stages Of decay. An egg
that appears very dark or black, eX-
cept for a large fixed air cell, con-
tains a chick at an advanced stage
of incubation.
Fresh eggs, properly preserved,
may be kept from six to ten months
and be almost as good for household
purposes as fresh eggs. Another rea-
son for preserving eggs-in water glass,
for instance, is the fact that they do
not acquire the Objectionable "cold-
storage taste.
Allow Three Dozen to Gallon.
To preserve 10 dozen eggs in wa
ter glass these directions are given
by the specialists of the United States
Department of Agriculture
Select a five-gallon earthen crock,
clean it thoroughly, sca1d, and allow
it to dry. Heat ten to twelve quarts
of water to the boiling point, and al
low it to cool. When the water is
cool, measure out nine quarts, put in
to the crock, and add one quart Of
sodium Silicate, commonly called wa
ter glass, which can be bought at any
drug store. Stir well, SO that the So.
luton becomes thoroughly mixed.
The solution thus prepared is ready
for the eggs, which may be put in all
at once, or from time to time as they
are obtainable Care should be taken
in putting them into the jar not TO
crack or break the shells; alse be
sure the solution covers the eggs at
all times Put the crock containing
the preserved eggs in a cool, dry
place, and cover with a tight lid or
waEed paper to prevent evaporation.
To preserve a smaller or larger
nunber of eggs, the solution should
be mixed and prepared in the same
proportions.
Use Only Clean Fresh Eggs.
Ii best results are to be obtained
the eggs should be clean and fresh,

The balalaika is not an entirely I'M

Russia, especially in all that relates
to art, has enabled this variation of
the ancient Persian tambour to find
welcome in London. 1t had season
of great success in the later ninetieS,
after its revival in Russia. For CEN
turtles it had been neglected, but the
great Russian musician, Andrew, saw
in it the possibilities of expressing
the national music of his country and
formed the first Balalaika orchestra,
which played before Nicholas the Sec
ond in 1898, and became the forerun-
ner Of the popularity of the instru-
ment not only in Russia, but in other
countries where it was played.

GROOM COWS AFTER MILKING
Dust and Germs Prevented From Con-
terminating Milk SuppIy-Do All
Work Between Times.

The cows should not be grOomed,
bedded, or fed Immediately before
milking. This fills the air with dust
and germs which get into the pail and
contaminate the milk. The grooming
is as good for the COWS as good bed
ding, but do it during the day when
ample time will be left before the
next milking to allow the dust to
settle.

before the city commission at It's next meeting
with proposal ior an appropriation for the pur-
pose OF making surveys and Investigations Incl
dent TO determining best ways and means OF Sc
curing adequate supply
As il should. the Board OF Development has
come on; and declared its recognition OF the in>ur
mountable handicap al an insufficient water sup
ply. taking the lead in this matter.
From this time forward the great commercial
organization OF the city is actively coupled up
with the task OF relieving the water shortage y
definite preliminary program has been launched,
and results may be expected.
Citizens may differ as to the means proposed
for relief OF the situation but all must agree as
TO the seriousness OF prevailing conditions. Doubt
less the Board OF City Development will court the
