Smithsonian Gets First Adding Machine New-laid eggs can be put down in water glass at any time, so many owners of poultry flocks have found it to an advantage to preserve some eggs during the high-producing sea son for use during the months of low production, according to nutrition specialists at Ohio State university. Only clean, fresh, infertile eggs should be put down in water glass. Dirty eggs will spoil and, if they are washed, the protective coating which prevents spoilage is removed. Cracked eggs should never be used. Even minute cracks may cause spoilage and contamination of the other eggs in the jar. It is a wise precaution to candle every egg be fore putting it into the water glass solution. A five-gallon crock or jar will hold about 14 dozen eggs with room for at least two inches of water glass solution above them. The container should be thoroughly cleaned and scalded and allowed to dry before it is used. It is a good idea, too, to set it where the eggs are to be stored, as it is difficult to move safely when filled with eggs. To prepare the solution, boil nine gallons of water, then cool. Add one quart of sodium silicate, or water glies, which can be bought in most arug stores, and mix well in the container. Put eggs carefully into the solution to avoid cracking them. Keep at least two inches of the water glass solution above the top layer of the eggs. Evaporation can be prevented by covering the crock with a tight lid. This can easily be removed to put in more eggs. If the solution evap orates perceptibly, add enough water to maintain the level. Eggs preserved in water glass solution may be taken out at any time. If they are used for boiling, make a small hole with a pin in one end to prevent them from cracking. Black Leghorns Found to Be Popular on Farms The black-feathered sister of the White Leghorn is becoming increas ingly popular on thousands of poul try farms for a number of reasons, says a poultryman. in the Philadel phia Inquirer. First, the birds are extremely hardy and very healthy. Diseases common to other breeds, such as white diarrhoea, laying mortality on account of pickouts and cannibalism, are unknown in Black Leghorns. They require no bloodtesting, no vaccination or cod dling of any kind, and thousands of farmers are depending on them for their living. They lay large white eggs and lots of them and are the only black-feathered fowl that dresses yellow for market purposes. Their flesh for the table is not ex celled. In England they are the leading breed. At the English egg-laying contests they have won every point for several years—most eggs, larg est eggs, lowest feed cost.
