La the quiet shadows of the tvening,
I left my village home,' ,,.
To gaze on the dear old homestead,
Which now stands there alone.
But I hear dim voices calling
From the shadows fa,.' away,
And I reach out my aim towards than
In the gloom of the twilight d'rey.
Through years of gilt and glitter;
And the city's busy mart,
The thought of the dear old home -life
Has lingered around my heart;
For still the voices of childhood
Are calling from far away,
And the faces of those that loved me
Smile through the shadows grey.
Through the pines the night winds
answer,
"Your dear mother is not there"
From my eyes the tears are streaming
Though the scene seems bright and
fair.
And again a happy, careless chile,
In memory seems apart,
For the thought of the dear old home-

Has never left my heart.
Back to the home of my childhood,
But never again as of yore
Shall I see nay dear mother to meet mo
As she stood in the open door
With a smile on her face, and her
arms outstretched
And her blue eyes tender and true.
To be clasped to her heart as in olden

TUE CANDLING OF EGGS,
Eggs are oue'of the most difficult of
food products to grade. Their extern.
'.i appearance gives but little indica-
tion as to their relative fltness for food
and the contents cannot be sampled
without destroying the fragile shell.
Fortunately an egg is semi -trent -
Parent when held before a sight in a
aa'-kened room and pevmite, if care•
fully rotated, of even minor defects
being seen.. It is not necessary to use'
en extremely powerful Behr. A keret-
Bene lamp, a gas jet, a 10 or a lacerdie
power incandescent bulb are the sour-
ce of light most generally used in
comercial work.
From time to time various applianc-
es Lave been invented to facilitate the
oandling of eggs in quantities. These
have proven serviceable for the simple
detection of bad eggs, but have not
swot found satisfactory for purpose of
fine grading.
Etch and every egg, tberefore, in
commercial work as well as in private
practice, must he passed separately
and with a quick turning movement
before the light. In the large whole-
sale produce houses where large quan-
tities of eggs are handled some cand
lers become remarkably expert. They
pick up regularly from two to three
eggs in cash hand and depending upon
the season ar.d the quality candle from
25 to 50 thirty dozen cases per day.
The size of the air cell, the consis-
tency of the albumen, the colour and
mobility of the yolk and the general
transparency of the whole egg are the
factors most generally recognized as
determining quality.
The contents of an egg, just laid
completely fill the shell, but as cooling
takes place contraction occurs and an
air space is formed in the large end,
The yolk is only slightly perceptible
and should swing readily in the aibu-
t men when the egg is turned atound.
The candlingof eggs is not a difficult
process. It requires but little skill to
tell at a glance the difference between
good and bad eggs and anyone with
practice can learn to differentiate be-
tween the varicus grades of good egge.
Many simple appliances have been
devised for the candling of eggs and
with a view to encouraging the prac-
tice of candling among all those con'
cerneel in the Canadian Egg Trade, the
Poultry Division of the Live Stock
Branch bas had prepared for free dis-
tribution a large quantity of cardboard
candling boxes, These have been
made in two types, one suitable for
use with the kerosene lamp and one
suitable for use with the electric ligkt,
Neither the small amount of trouble
requiredto securonne of these applean-
ees nor the amount of Iabour entailed
in candling, preeents any valid reason
why the public should be obliged to
use or accept bad or incubated egg'.
Storekeepers will find it to• their ad-
vantage to acquire facility in candling
and it is recommended that every
housewife should provide herself with
one of these simple candling appliances
by the diligent use of which she may
safeguard her family from many un'
pleasant occu rai;ce3 at the breakfast
table.
These applianees may be obtained
free upon application to the Live Stock

W.lta Ownrf the Bullet?
The question nk' the ow:tership ot
an extracted bullet is. bells; tlei;o::ti
with considerable vehemence in trill'
many. M a rule, a pattont wants to
retain the bullet as a curiosity. On
the other hand, the surgeon.likes to
keep it.
A judge in Berlin has decider} that
a wounded soldier has a perfect
right to the bullet that lodged inhis
body because, when it reached hit,
it was legally subject to nobody's
ownership. The enemy relinquished
Its ownership in sending the bullet
feral.
Thiet question of no ownership

If the wounded .soldier at the time
should be unconscious and unable to
assert his claim. Should the sur-
geon retain the bullet extracted by
him the soldier has a good cause for
damages against him, the court held.
other jurists .assert that the en -
only does not lose its ownership af-
ter the firing of a bullet, nod who-
ever comes out victorious has a
right to all the ammunition that hal
been fired and which eau be recove
ed from the wounded or dead, There-
fore, no individual has any right to
lay claim to an extracted bullet.
The debate is being carried on
with the greatest amount of serious-
ness by medical and legal authors,

Most of the best inland flaking
waters in Canada are being stead-
ily "fished out," Planting fry pro-
duced in hatcheries is helping to
prolong the life of these fisheries,
but this poly serves to postpone,
not to prevent, the depletion of the
fish supply. Thio does not mean
that men will have to live without
eating fish any more than the vir-
tual extinction of the world hog meant
that pori' would be unobtainable.
instead, it will mean that many
small lakes and otherwiso waste
land will 'be t:otivtrtod into "water
gardens," where better Ash, and
snore of them, Will be produced.
Many farms throughout the coun-
try possess small stream§, bordered
by areas of Wet, marshy land. Fre-
quently these land are of little
value except as inferior ilastute.
Why should not the farmer turn
