Every broken eg" was ta.ken up and applied to 0 his nose, to ascertain whP.ther it; was sound or not, and if it passed the smelling te~t it was poured into a two gallon tin can,' among its sound companions. If any musty or tainted od"r waa detected, it was thrown into another ca.n to be fed to hogs. Speaking of his occupation, h11 stid:.
