• - SHREWS
The Shrews‘fcre s,-small group of
small mammals which most 1 people
know only vaguely or. not at all.
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!

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.
