the Water Supply Department of Queensland for 18)9.—Ed. Q.4.J. 
A SIMPLE WAGON-LOADER. 
Tux following sketch shows roughly how to save some of the heavy lifting when: 
loading grain or other produce :—Two iron clamps are wanted on the rail and. 
bedplate, as shown, into which a wooden standard 6 feet long can be affixed. 
At the top of the standard a long pole is slung by a piece of raw hide or chain. 
At the short end of the pole a hook is attached, and this takes hold of the loops: 
of the sling which is placed around the bag. A line should also be attached to: 
the short end for pulling down. The leverage afforded by the longer end of | 
the pole makes loading an easy job.—S.A. Journal of Agriculture. 
TO PRESERVE EGGS. 
Oxe gallon of boiling water to be poured on $-lb. of quicklime. When cold, 
add 2 oz. of cream of tartar and 2 oz. of common salt. Stir for a few days: 
occasionally, and then pour off the pickle into a wide-mouthed jar, and do not 
leaye too much lime at the bottom, or the eggs will become set fast in the lime.. 
Place the eggs in carefully, put a cover on the jar, and keep it in a cool place 
away from either sun or frost.
