Many a farm wife has been prematurely aged and her health broken, from overwork carrying heavy buckets of water from the farm pump, in all weathers. Where so much work is entailed in ob- taining water, it is not surprising that frequently too little is used. On many farms insufficient water for ,proper washing of clothes, pro- per cleaning ,of dishes, is used, be- cause of the •tedious labor of car- rying it in buckets from the well. A washing machine is found in most homes, and is agreed to be a Feat labor-saving device. Howev- er, where watermust be carried from the well, and heated on the .kitcl{en range, a great deal of its. labor-saving possibilities are not realized. Running water can make pos- sible the installation of a fully modern bathroom on the farm, eliminating discomfort, or the use of inconvenient unsanitary, sake - shifts; and releasing the farm kit- chen from its duties as a bathroom on Saturday night. An automatic electric water system or a .heater connected to the kitchen range, can make avaiI- able plenty of hot or cold water in• the home, frequently at a cost of 8200.00 or less. This cost depends largely on the piping required, and the depth of the well. Where the water level in the well is more than 22 feet below this level of the pump, the more expensive deep well type of pump is required. An automatic pressure water sys- tem, besides being low in first cost, is inexpensive to run, and requires little attention. If properly install- ed the only attention required will be the occasional checking of oil leve?. In choosing a pump it is fhise economy to buy the cheapest avail- able. While the smaller pumps have sufficient capacity for many installations,, some extra capacity should always be available. With turning water available. much more water will be used, and prob- ably new uses for the water will be found. The advice of your deal- er or manufacturer should be ob- tuined when deciding on theca- pacity required. Where the quality of water is in doubt, it may be tested for pollu- tion. . Write to the Department of. Bacteriology, Ontario Agricultural College. They will send sterile sample bottles, and instructions for sampling. These are to be return- ed to the Department of Bacter- iology for testing. TJse of modern bathroom requires some means of sewage disposal.

The eggs which are used Sick' hatching should bi °'clean, uniform, in shape and color, sound; of shell and of good, size. CO out all drrt' eggs and, those with poor simile; ridges and rough surfaces also tinted eggs from white shell breeds such as White Leghorna. The size of eggs to be used should be from 23-28 ounces per dozen. The proper ,care of nests and pens will help keep eggs clean. Provide a clean, well -bedded nest for every four or five birds. Close the nests at night to prevent birds roosting in them. Clean dropping boards and screened -off pits will help keep eggs clean. Clean any eggs that are slightly soiled with steel wool or a damp cloth. Do not wash them. The eggs shoujd be gathered fre- quently --at least three times a day. This helps prevent excess. chilling in cold weather and em- bryonic development in warm wea- ther as fertile eggsstart to incu- bate at 68 degrees F. Frequent gathering aI'so reduces breakage. Hatching eggs should be held at 50-60 degrees F. in a room that is not too dry. . Ship eggs once a week as best results are obtained from eggs not over seven days old. Some experiments show a mark- ed increase in the percentage of crippled ,and spraddled poults batched from turkey eggs over one week old when set, compared with eggs only one to seven days old when set. Careful packing and handling is also important. The eggs should 'be placed large end up in key trays. Rough handling may cause tremulous air cells which lower hatchability. Hatching eggs cannot be improv- ed after they are produced. The proper care of these eggs, from the time they are laid until they are placed in the incubator, will help retain the qualities produced by proper feeding and management. rural installations is the septic tank and sub -surface disposal field. Forms for concrete septic tanks have been designed and built by the Department of Agricultural En- gineering, O.A.C., Guelph, and are available on loan. free of charge, from the Agricultural Representa- tives of 'the various, counties. A new bulletin on Rural Sewage Dis- posal, giving instructions for in- sta'l,ation and operation, will also be available.
