RE HOUSEHOLD, a— TEE sure and simple method of keeping eggs sound by smearing the shells with linseed oil has long been practiced. The oil forms a sort of film over the shell, thereby preventing the two immediate causes of decomposition —the evaporation from and penetration of air into the egg. A recent experi- ment In point deserves notice, A dozen new-laid eggs were rubbed over with linseed oil applied with the tip of the finger; another dozen were coated in the like manner with poppy oil; two more eges were left in their natural state, The whole twenty-six were Lhen laid close together in three rows, in dry sand, upon a shelf, where they were left undisturbed. At the end of three months they were weighed, and again at the end of six months, when they were opened. The two eggs left in their natural state, at the end of three months, had lost 11 per cent, and were found to be half empty and the con- tents rotten. The eggs coated with poppy oil in three months lost 3 per cent. and in six months 4} per cent of their weight. ‘I'he eggs were still full and devoid of unpleasant smell. The eggs rubbed over with linseed oil In three months lost 2 per cent, and in six months 3 per cent only of their weight, and when opened were found to be full, with the smell of fresh eggs Crop HAM VERY FINE. —To a cup- ful allow a rounding cup of cracker crumbs, or two cups of bread crumbs, four hard-boiled eggs, one and one- half of butter, unless the ham is fat; if 80, use but a teaspoonful. Butter dish, put in a layer of crumbs, one of egg (sliced thin), and so proceed till all is used, having a layer of crumbs on top. over the top before the last layer crumbs is added, then put the crumbs over, cut the butter in pieces and put for about half an hour, or until nicely browned, and serve very hot.

After a certain point, mere bulk of salt is of no value as a preserva- tive of butter; hence the olgection of those who preter to salt on the table in- | stead of in the churn is unfounded, Salting with brine when the butter is | granular gives the maker perfect com- mand over the strength of the salt, and is not only the most sensible buat the most practical method.
