Conkcy) With the coming of Spring there usually comes a decline in egg prices so that there is a considerable in ducement for the consumer or for the restricted retailer to resort to some means of preserving the eggs brought in during this flood time season against the time when they will be less plentiful and the prices will be higher. While much has been written about preserving eggs tnere are still a great many wnose Know ledge of this subject does not extend beyond the old-fashioned way of packing eggs in salt and grain. Among the many good methods of preserving eggs, one of the easiest and perhaps the best, and undoubted ly one of the most popular methods, 3S preserving with water-glass. The reasons for the popularity and effici- eflcy seen. or this method can reaaily be In the first place the egg, chemi- cally speaking, is quite complex. hoiled because the eggs must always firer story to put in any young f el Studying the egg from the standpoint be kept submerged.

If kept in tin, water glass retains its efficiency for years but when diluted with' water it is good for but one season. In mixing the preserving fluid use one part water-glass to nine parts rain-water if obtainable. If rain; water cannot be had, other water may be used. Boil the water for half an hour, then cool it and mix it well with the water-glass.

If you've never preserved eggs, look into this subject. It will very likely open to you a new field 6f good pro- j fits, for there is practically no expen se connected with the preserving. The vessels you use can be used over and over again for years. All you need is fresh water-glass and youH find it will cost you about lc a dozen to preserve your eggs. Only one point should be bourne in mind. Be fore you start preserving, b sure to get good, fresh eggs from a reliable source, for remember, it's only the a t. ' .
