Any article of food loses in value if offered for sale in a dirty condition, and eggs are no exception.` Clean eggs will bring better prices than dilrty ones. :.Np,art from thie greatly improved appearance of `clean eggs, the quality will be better. A` dsrty egg is bound to be tainted more or less by the dirt adhering to it An egg is covered with minute pores that absorb any bad odors. To prove this, place an egg in-close proximity to onions for instance, and a faint odor of onions can afterward be detected in the egg. , L_1_.;___ ! ..-L BANKING BY [AIL Eszgs, however, look better if not washed, so it should be the aim to have the majority of the eggs lgid cltan. so that they would not require washing. `Of course the egg is clean when it is laid, but are the nest and the hen s feet always clean?

Many people send clean ; hen fruit to market, but the speci- mens are of all sizes,- shapes and ` color.. Of course, if all eggs were ` sold bv weight.the size would` make less difference, but very few eggs as 1 yet are sold. by the pound, The -eggs should be all one color in a crate, or if a whole crateiof one `col- v or cannot be sent, divide them up` asto color, so that they may readily 4 "be separated. Right here is avbige argument in favor of keeping only true breed oif fowls. for thenthe` eggs are all one color.` Of course. ex en hens of one particular breed `will not lay eggs of an absolutely even colro unless they -are white eggs. Hens that lay brown-_ eggs, even if all one variety, ."will not lay evenly-colored eggs, so i-t is, per- haps, best to keep some breed that -lrys white eggs.

I It is a good plan to sta.mp all the eggs with one s name and address, and, perhaps, if .large numbers are shipped, thedate when laid. All this will take time, but purchasers soon nd that they are perfectly safe in buying your eggs, when warranted by your name upon them. ln'this way a demand is created for n brml -of eggs, and there will be no trouble ~ I \ in disposing of them all at to _ prices. Attention to these seeming-y little things is what brings success to the man who backs up his eggs w tli a guar_antee'--his name and address. The Farmer and the Schools. Every autumn is disclosing" the fact T that best results come to the_ farmer 1 who combines in himself trained in- I telligence and industry. Theory is worthless _without intelligent pract- , ice` while industry_ thatis not guided , by sound reason is but so much. en- energy wastefully expended. The farmer. who does aim to strike the happy medium between thought` and action is very likely to reap more disappointments than-wheat or bar- ley. As the virgin. fertilityof our soil is exhausted. and as our original forests are stripped away, as new L conditions evolve involving an ever- , connecte iiicreasin multitude of problems with farm life, .it becomes '|e\ ery day more self-evident that the I farmer who is to take a, successful j part in` the life of his community ' must be on the move upward, or be prepared to take 'an_ ever less im- portant part in a losing battle. Now, no better ally to the farm should be found than the school. Of course, the manual operations. of. the farm can -be learned only by exper- ience. But while this is the case, there is- a deal that may be taught l by way` of encouraging the farm boy to observe conditions in his-home and farm life. The life history of some insects and pests mayfbe read- ily studied. The `conditions. under which certain blights occur may be noted. In this study our Agricult- .ura.l Expeqriment Stations will `be very willing `to lend teacher and pu- pil, and parent alike, timely and help- ful encouragement.` ` fails Perhaps the most importantilesson the school can impress l upon the minds of_ the pupils. ist-he fact that "nothing in gcannection with farm operations merely happens, or that one farmer succeeds and another because of mere luck. The teacher who has_trained his pupil to do his own thinkin and _to make reasonably correct 9 servations, -or to conduct an experiment intelligent- ly. has done a great dea.l in the way of preparing his student for a happy and successful life.` As this is the month in which many of` our public- -by` pm"3 the 3 it school teachers are `hired, `it is all- important that the farmers bestir `themselves to secure teachers who are educators rather than time.-serv- I ers, and who aim to prepare their little `charges for _the graver probe lems that come with the advancing ` years, rat_her than-for a.!.cert_ain ex- pertness in passing examinations. 1.-I9: choiam, l i V The cause of hog. cholera is yet 1 a much-disputed question, . although authorities agree that it'jis,evidently I due to some form of iiucrogorganisrn, ~::.'. 318"-1.m..- fwhlch is , * `glass will be ruined by direct and? an in `nu AI; \ul\IEQlll Olav: \v V9911 - When tea has been put into. the teapot it should at once be filled up with boiling water.
