They are warm-blooded, body with 'hair, and suckle their young.,! 1 - -• They are about the size of mice or even smaller, but the Shrews have a more pointed muzzle (nose);- softer and'fineV-filf; Cars abd £yes smaller, if indeed visible at all; the teeth are more evenly developed along the jaw. including canines " {“eye^tieeth”), whereas mice have no canine teeth. They fed largely on insects. ' Out. with ah excellent Clemson stu dent one day,, I turned over, a piece of stump and exposed a short-tailed Shrew, asked the .student what ani mal it was. The student noticed the pointed snout, short fur, short tail, no visible eabkV He 1 looked up and said. “I never saw an animal like this. Whhl is it?”’ ’'HI The short-tailed is the m'Oht com mon of bur few' S. C. Shrews. It burrows under grass,' leaves, soft earth, rotted wood, etc. It Will readi ly attack, kill, and devour nvieftj— hence the Shrews are rapked as bene- ficial. It is quite common at Clem son, and is often caught in mouse traps set in aippropriate places oiit- of-dborsl During the. C. C. Cj days I men tioned > the Shrews in a talk at a mountain .camp. Later one of the foremen sent me a specimen of the dittle short-tailed Shrew, which is the very smallest of all the mammals native to -£>• C. He mailed it in a penny match box, with room bo spare. We have record (but very scant) of five species of S. C. Shrews. At iCIemsion #ve have- taken only the two mentioned. You might help out by sending us (fresh-killed) any speci men which you know or suspect to be a Shrew—we will try, to identify it. ir One. November I trapped a species of Shrew-in northern Michigan and showed it to sevearl men residents in that state. None of them had any name for it except (.perhaps ‘mouse’) and none of them could recall having even seen an animal of its charac teristics,-.most of those men would surely have considered themselves familiar with “wildlife” of their sec tion. They knew the larger animals, but they had only vague ideas (if any) about little fellows like the mice, the bats, and the shrews. There is plenty still for us to learn! :>MT- Getting The Most From Your Eggs By Ethel LV Counts ” Ftesfh teggs iVi abundance are com ing to market. OnCe eggs ami!"the kitchen, it’s up to the cook to give a good egg break—a chance to do its job for fbd value and flavor. Home economists of the U. S. De partment of Agriculture say that eggs may lose considerably of both if badly stored or cooked. A good egg offers an impressive line-up of food value. , It is in top class among proteins for tissue building and repair, along With> foods like meat and milk. The egg yolk holds a rich store of iron for red blood cells, and phosphorus, and oth er minerals besides. Fat in the yolk is of exceptional quality for good nutrition. Ahd in the vitamin alpha bet, an egg offers three ^’s—thia- mine, rtooflavin, .and . pifteil—plus vitanffnfe A artd r D in / varying amounts, depending on wh4t the hen was fed. Don’t wash - eggs-until just ready to use them, is home storage pointer number ;»ne, »Ugg$8£ed btfr the home economists. An egg shell at the start has a dull, velvety “bloom”. This is due'Wa t>i**e£We‘ffltn;prtneJi helps keep bacteria and odors from getting through Hie porous shell. The film tenets to *wAr off-^everi °fiS'rKtling is hard orf It. Before -storing eggs, wipe off soiled spots with a rough, dry cloth. Washing takes off the protecjtintf blb«n..,^l t Speed eggs to refrigerator or oth er cold plEft-e--Without -delayi is stor age pointer number two. A Cornell biochemist once showed that an egg kept at ordinary room temperature three days lost as much freshness as M ag& kept'in a home refrigerator two weeks. Store ' eggs away from strong- smelling foods, is pointer three. A paper cattoh does its duty a* a trav eling case, but in home storage the porous paper may absorb odors from foods, and eggs do catch odors easily. At cooking time, keep in mind that an egg toughens at high and prolorpajj|jpeaJ$-jA*tu|iljft protein of egg white is more digestible when an egg is cooked at low heat than when eithegraw er cooked tough. _ For ten der eg^^cooEAAf siliRl, keep water below boiling: Start eggs in cold-water,; bring to. simmering— when water forms small bubbles and beads but doesn't roll. For soft- cooked eggs, simmer 3 to 5 minutes; hard-coo tad, i.about 25 toi 30. Or, soft cook eggs by this coddling meth od: Put them in boiling water and take the pan off the stove at once. Cover pan to hold steam and let the eggs cook in the diminishing heat about-6,.minutes-'■ ' Whatever way eggs are cooked— scrambled, poached, fried, featured in oven dishes like sponge cake or custard—for best results use control led, even heat. Along with other ad vantages,. going easy with fuel saves thiamine in eggs. This B vitamin is easily damaged in heating, and it also escapes into coking water. That’s good reason for one more cooking tip. Use no more water than is needed when poaching eggs.
