In this Russian -Japanese struggle

The credit of neither has boon the

great superiority over her antag-

The Imperial bank of Russia,

history of binder twine, cement,

is their money which erects the
buildings of the factories and pays
a, big commission to the promoters.

than will another that has bad her
vitality impaired by winter laying.
The farmer should select, from
the flock of pillets ten or twelve of
the best winter layers, pinoing ti
regular leg band or a. piece of wire
around the leg of each. The next
winter these pullets, (then yearling
hens) should it, separated from the
laying hens and kept in good health

eh they shonld he mated with a
suitable cockerel, and their rations
increased sous to bring thein into
laying at the time when their eggs
are required for hatching. Such a
process of selection would soon pro-
duce a particularly fine strain of
winter layers.
EXPORTING Eues. The export
trade carries off the .surplus eggs
produced during the summer
months when prices are low, but
has little or no effect on the price
of new -laid eggs in winter. Efforts
to increase our export trade in eggs
need not, therefore, alarm consum-
ers in cities or towns. Eggs that
are placed in cold storage from
April till July are shipped to Great
Britain for the September and Oc-
tober trade ; those that go into cold
storage in the fall aro exported dur-
ing the winter months. All these
are sold in Britain as "Clanadian
fresh eggs."

MARKET REQUIREMENTS'. -- There
is a growing preference on the
Home markets for brown shelled
ewes, Tile shells of the eggs shonld
be wiped clean if necessary. and
the eggs graded in size. For ship-
ment to the merchant they should
be packed in oases holding 12 doz-
ens or 30 dozens each. Eggs to be
palatable should be eaten in a
strictly fresh condition.: therefore
they should reach the consumer
without unecessary delay. This
requires (1) that the eggs be col -
looted regularly every day and
stored in a cool room (temperature
40 to. 0 deg. F.), until a sufficient
number are on hand to deliver to
a dealer ; (2) that the dealer for-
ward the eggs to the merchant at
least once a Week, and (3) tire t the
merchant protect the eggs from de-
terioration while in his possession.
PULLETS for WINTER LAYING. As
a general rule pullets hatched dur-
ing May or early June will prove
most profitable for winter laying.
Farmers who expect to make a
specialty of high-priced. new -laid
eggs next winter should at the
present time bo hatching out n good
slumber of chicks front which 'to
select suitable pullets. The cocker-
els should be sold in the early fall._1

and require little attention or extra
feed, the /nest profitable age for
marketing is four months. After
