Under ordinary summer temperature, fertile eggs are spoiled for food in twenty-four hours. . An in fertile egg under the same tempera ture will remain fit for food for six days. Fertile eggs may be used when it is known that they have not been subjected to heat Only those eggs having strong, sound shells should be used. An egg with a weak shell placed in the solu tion is liable to be broken and may ruin the entire lot of eggs by befoul ing the preservative. Cracked or dented eggs may be detectedty hit ting one egg against another. If the ring is metalic the shell is not cracked or broken, but. if deadened, close ex amination will reveal a crack or blind check. Such eggs will spoil the preservative. ' Only - clean and unwashed eggs should be used. Dirty eggs, if used, contaminate the preservative with harmful-bacteria, wfiich may enter the egg and cause putrefaction to take place. Washing eggs intended for preserving removes from the shell the last coa of lime, or bloom, which aids materially in self-preservation. When removed by washing, the pores of the egg are left open and are more sus ceptible to entrance of harmful bac teria. Sufficient solution should be al lowed for evaporation. The upper most eggs should be tovered by two inches of preservative. The eggs may best be kept in I stone jar and in a cool place, such as the basement or -.11.. M . I. . n,,f;nfl tUm Amain drop them in as gathered. This is a bettef method than pouring the solu- lion over uiB ckki, .iiuhi j , 2 use, remove only those needed. A glass cover should be provided lor the jar, to keep the solution clean and to minimize evaporation. A gummed label pasted on the glass is a con venient method for keeping record of dates and number of eggs. . At is at common practice to add salt to either of the above solutions. This its not a good practice and renders the solution less efficient, inasmuch as the brine enters the egg readily and liquefies the albumen. "hlrkni is chickens ; but ' the best chickens are the ones that re ceive the most intelligent care.' While experience - is doubtless the best teacher, it is also very expensive training. Why not use the experience of others and save money. Any amount of valuable information may be .had free of charge. It learns that some of our readers, who are raising .poultry on a small scale, feel that it is too expensive to huv hooka and subscribe for good poultry magazines. In a way, they are .!L. A nn,,ll,w lihr&rV would be expensive and it is quite unnecessary for the home poultry man. The very best and most relia ble Instruction on poultry production can be had free of charge. Among the sources of free instruction on poultry raising are the public library, tne United Statci Department of Agricul ture, Washington, D. C, and the poul try department of the State Agricul tural college. Information on almost any phase of poultry production can be had inm these sources without cost . . A few minutes study each day on tried and proved methods will mean profit to any poultry raiser. - i Preserving Eggs.

The following solutions have'given excellent results in preserving eggs for eight months. Such methods of preserving eggs are not intended for use in a commer cial way, but meet very satisfactorily the demands of the home and are rec ommended to this extent only. It is unlawful to sell preserved eggs unless labeled as such. The quality of eggs properly preserved under either of the following methods is a very close approach to that of the fresh egg, making them suitable for table use as well as for baking pur poses. - , Canning Poultry. With the price of fresh meat so high canned products are sure to be come more popular. The home can ning of meat, especially poultry, should be studied and practiced by every housewife. Greater care must be used in the canning of meat than in fruit or vege tables, as a very nign temperature is required to destroy the harmful bac teria in the meat. After the meat is cooked as it would be for immediate use, it must be sterilized by cooking in steam under pressure. . A special steam cooker should be used for this purpose, although a wash boiler with a tight lid may be substituted. Every housewife should own a steam cooker for canning. It would soon pay for itself by" preventing canning losses, and it makes the canning of meat ab solutely safe. A woman who has practiced home canning of poultry said enthusiasti cally: "We nave spring chicken all tli. vr rnntiH. If i Inxlirv ftnrl economy at the same time." Surely if a few women have been snccesstul in home canning ot poultry, many hundred) should Be studying the lame methodi, particularly at this time when the meat supply is low. lhe home economics division or the United States Department of Ag riculture is now working on experi ments under controlled conditions and with apparatus especially designed to measure interior temperatures, in the hope of learning whether or not com mon household methods of canning will heat the food sufficiently to steril ize it entirely. , ' Hints or Poultry Raisers. Summer shade insures thrifty chicks. , Remove cockerels to a separate yard the last of May or the first of June. Sour milk makes a valuable addi tion to any poultry "ration. Soft, fresh dirt is an Insurance against leg weakness in chicks. Before storing the incubator clean thoroughly, remove the ' lamp and throw away the wick. s spoiled or decaying flesh. It eaten. Will surely cause limber neck. Burn or bury the dead. When range is limited spade up the runs or move the brood coop s short distance daily. Do not keen unnecessary male birds. An extra hen eats no more and may lay eggs. ) Atter the grass sets toueh chicks can catch more bugs and worms and will grow better On loose soil. Clean, fresh water lessens disease. Filthy drinking water is the source of much trouble. Clean the drinking pans frequently. Mites are sure to accumulate if the droppings are not removed every week and the roosts sprayed with kerosene emulsion or disinfectants. Broody hens should be removed to slat bottomed coons as soon as dis covered. Leave them there until they lorgei it. Watch for hearl lira. nnvth rfiirlr flf found rub top of head with a small piece tot lard free from salt. Avoid crowding by keeping In small flocks and by providing roomy coops.

Feeding Ducks. Ducks may be fed on the rations recommended for fowls and chickens, but better results are usually secured dy leeuing more green and vegetable feeds and a larger proportion of mash. 1 lie tollowing ingredients should be mixed into a mash and fed wet crumbly, not pasty. The feeding of milk to ducks in pans- as a drink causes sore eyes. Use milk in the mash and feed only what will be readily cleaned up. Mix the proper amount for one feed only. Held-over mash-will sour and cause trouble if fed. lhe following proportions are ny measure. Water Glass Solution. A solution of nine quarts of water and one-quart of commercial water glass.

From a sellsr's standpoint the trade has been anything , but- aatlsfactory all week.

Wheat Market li Heavy and Jnly and Sep tember Are tiower. prices resulted today from reports that rep- reaentauves of the European entente nations had agreed to liquidate their options on American grain futures and to co-operate with- .the United States In a pooling aystem whereby exports from this country would be apportioned with due regard to domestic requirements. word that the rushing of wheat and bar ley shipments overland from the Pacific coast to be dispatched to Europe waa being directe by the federal government tended also to ease the market, especially as It waa said Australian wheat would be brought In to mane up the dellclt. Business here in wheat waa the smallest of tho week, a llttla knot of half a dosen brokers on one edge of the pit being all that, waa leu or tne u or more wno until oi lata formed the usual number. Opening wheat prices which ranged from the same aa yes terday's finish to 6 centa lower, with July at 32.23 and September at 82.05, were fol lowed by changes that made the setback general, but lees extreme, and thereby aowe- inmg ot a recovery. A abarp bulge in wheat values took place later. Strength of other grain appeared to be largely responsible, but la addition there waa bulltsh gossip current that Ital ian and French demand for wheat from America waa so large that a ievere cut In the Italian allotment waa necessary and the French total had also been reduced. The close . waa unsettled. 12c net higher. wun juiy at iz.to ana Hepiemoer at 93.17, Corn developed considerable atrenath ow ing to scarcity of sellers and to- the -fact that receipts were small, ideal growth con ditions for the crop failed to have any last ing oeansn enect. Alter opening 10 oir to a Ilka advance, the market rose alt around to well above yesterday's latest fig urea. ' It waa said current arrivals of corn were not sufficient to meet the Industrial de mand Upturns In prices continued un. checked until justt before the end of the session. The close waa nervous at gains of 20Uc net. In oata the large export aales ot late acted as a stimulus to buyers. Besides northern Illinois and Indiana were sending In com plaints of dry weather.

Ths dullness of to dsy's short trading period waa In striking contrast to the activity of the two preced ing sessions. Momentous overnight events, such aa tha president's call to arms and the decision of th govsrnment to dispatch an axpedltlonarjr fore, to Francs had a sober ing effect on sentiment. Prices wars little changed at the opening apart from another severe berak in tenver A Rio Orands prsferred, a result of tha rul ing of tho federal court, which Inflicted a severe monetary penalty upon that aystem. Other minor ralla were firm to strong, a marked Inquiry developing for the new Mis souri Psclflo Issuss. Among representative transportation stocks the Pacifies, Resdlng and othor high grad share ruled firm to strong. t War share wer better by 1 to 2 points. United State Steel came within a fraction of its recent maximum and the mora dis tinctive equipments and munitions recovered 1 to 2 points.
