REBEKAH
CLEAN. VS. DIRTY VS.. WASHED
EGGS FOR STORAGE
• (Expeimental Farms Note
Experience has shown that washed
eggs are suitable only for immediate
consumption, and will not stand up
;under storage conditions for any
lerngtli of time. Although the wash-
ed egg may get by for a short time,
and be quite actsiptable on the fresh,
egg market, its inferiority is immed-
iately evident after a period of star -
Experiments carried on at, several
Dominion Experimental Farms have',
shown that clean eggs which graded
75 per cent specials, and 25 per cent
extras before storage, graded 85 per
cent extras, 12 per cent first, and 3
per cent weak and watery after six
months storage. Dirty eggs. grading
similarly when placed in storage came
out practically on a par with the clean
eggs. Washed eggs, however, stored
under similar conditions graded only
45 per cent . extras, 24 per cent
firsts, and 31 per cent weak and wat-
ery, er nearly 50 per cent inferior to
both the clean and dirty eggs.
• Evidently the washing of eggs • de-
tracts from their keeping qualities to
such an extent that is may be con-
sidered to be bad practice. It is ad-
iti'isable by cleanliness: and sanitation
on the poultry plant to avoid the pro-
ducing of dirty eggs. Dirty eggs,
when obtained, should be marketed
as such. By washing `them the pool -
try -man is placing a product of in-
ferior qualityupon the market.

MILLIONAIRES IN CANADA.

A recent report states that there
are 272 millionaires in. innada. Of
this total 91 reside in the province of
Quebec, 76 of whomare in the .city
of Montreal, the largest city in Can-
ada. The province of Ontario is
creditied with 138 of these rich folk;
Manitoba, 21, British Columbia, 9;
New Brunswick, 5; Alberta, 4; and
Nova Scotia, 4. Neither Saskatche-
wan nor Prince Edward Island has
a millionaire, but a fair percentage
of the population of these two pro-
vinces aro of comfortable Vrealth. In
Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba
between 70 and 80 per cent. of the
farming' population own their own
farms.

that every woman they see coming up
the street is mamma coming home to
them. They shut their eyes until she
gets almost to the door and then open

come true. blather knows of this
game, and she is doingher best to

WINGIIASE: Ontario Department
of Agriculture, through 'District Rep-
resentative G. R. Paterson of Clinton,
is holding a whiter course in Wing -
ham Council Chamber from January
7th to February 8th. This course is
open to all young men and women of
the district, free, and text books are
not, required. - Classes ` are from 9
a.m. to 4 pan. daily, except Satur-
day. Programme includes lectures on
live stock, field crops, soils, poultry,
beekeeping, horticulture, insect pest's
and plant diseases, noxious weeds,
farm mechanics; ;etc„ domestic sei-
ence, serving, home nursing and 'first
aid. There will also be combined lec-
tures on arithmetic,, English, Bacter-
iology, cheinestry, Home Beautifica-
tion and Literary and Social prob-
lems. These courses offer an excel-
lent opportunity for the young pee
ple to obtain a practical training,. in
the science of farm work, without
which' success in this vocation cannot
be obtained. Agriculture is a highly
specialized business to -day and to
Make it a profitablty successful ven-
ture the farmer must know the base
principals of soil adaptinn, control
of weeds$ care and management of
stock, etc. The same argument holds
so far as home economics are con-
cerned, Just so, long as, these inten-,
sley practical and essential problems
are not sufficiently 'treated in the
public schools, then these short
courses by the Department will be a
necessity, and ought. to be welcomed
by the, progressive- younger people of
the vicinity. There is one feature
not to be forgotten—the privilege is
yours for the trouble of attending—
it is as free of expense as is possible,
and the opportunities are great.
