Answer: Eggs for hatching should be clean, fresh, well-formed, of a color that conforms to. the breed re quirements, and should weigh 24 ounces to the dozen. Avoid all round, short,' or thin shelled eggs as these eggs do not hatch well. Eggs for hatching should bi collected two or three times a day in.' cold weather to prevent chilling. They should then be stored in a oool, dry place where the temperature does not fall below 40 degrees nor rise above 70 degrees. Where possible it is also well to select eggs from high .produc ing birds as this characteristic is hereditary. Question: What grain ration would you suggest for a weaning calf? Answer: The amount of grain to feed will depend upon the condition of the calf. She should be kept in medium flesh and in a good growing condition. If grain has been fed prior to weaning then this will have to be increased to provide nutrients to take the place of those formerly furnished by the milk- However, heifers need little, if any grain dur ing the winter if they receive an ample allowance of legume hay and silage. When silage igfed give the six-months old heifer only about six or seven pounds a day. .v Where grain is fed, use from three to five pounds a day. Where grain is fed, use from three to five pounds a day depending, of course, upon the condition of the animal. Question: Is it possible to corn beef on the farm and how is it done?

Then pack in a clean vessel of hard wood or stone ware and cover with a pickle made of one and one half pounds of salt one ounce of salt peter,, one-quarter pound of sugar or syrup, and one gallon of pure water.
