Cold Storage at Home.

"HERE is no taking issue with the
fact that the cold storage of eggs
is one of the greatest conveniences
Of modern times The trouble comes when
the great produce merchants corner the
market and hold fast in their cold stor-
age houses thousands of carloads OF
eggs in order to keep the prices up.
One great solution of the egg problem
would be If each householder who owns
a bit of ground could add a few fowls to
lis possessions In almost every family
there are enough scrapings from the table
coupled with green things from the gar
den to nearly keep a half dozen fowls.
Another method Of self-protection. where
one has a cold cellar, is to pack away a
number OF dozen eggs while hens are
laying and eggs are at their cheapest, to
be used in the lean days to come. This
is not at all difficult IL certain precau-
tons are taken.
How to Keep Eggs Fresh at Home.
The first essential for the successful
storage OF eggs is that they shall be
strictly fresh" when stored. The next is
that If packed in salt. corn meal OF
wheat they must not be allowed to touch
one another or the receptacle in which
they are packed. The third essential is
that they be kept in q cool place.
German experimenters have recently
tried twenty different methods of preserv-
ing eggs. The three that We're pro-
nounced most satisfactory were coating
them with vaseline or lard and preserv-
ing them in lime water or in water glass
with the preference given TO the water
glass method. While packed eggs do not
beat up well for cakes or icings, eggs
kept in the water-glass solution seem
equal to the average fresh eggs of the
market, Water glass is sodium OF
potassium silicate. To make the solu-
ton. use ten quarts of pure water that
has been thoroughly boiled then cooled
Add one quart Of the water glass of
course any vessel Jar or key used fol-
the packing must be absolutely clean.
If wooden receptacles are used. thor
oughly scald with boiling water. Pack
the eggs in the vessel and pour the solu-
ton over them. covering well. Keep in
dry, cool place. Never wash eggs before
packing, as the normal eggshell has a
coating OF mucilaginous matter that
helps to make the shell alright. Water
glass should not cost more than 90 cents
per gallon. and as gallon will make
enough of the solution to cover fifty
dozen eggs the cost for preserving them
would be but cent per dozen.
Although the ways of cooking eggs are
legion. the housewife sometimes forgets
the variations from season to season and
SO falls into monotony in their service.
Here are a few joys to memory.

ECONOMY OF CHEESE.

IT may be Interesting to note that
when the United States Department
of Agriculture experimental in the d.
gestib.lity of cheese a few years ago It
named as the most digestible cheeses,
beside the so-called American cheese of
the first quality. Swiss cheese. Rogue
fort, Camembert and cottage cheese. An
other thing which the government bulle-
tin pointed out was that care should be
taken in using cheese in cooking not to
burn it or even cook it thoroughly. for
there are various digestive. disturbances
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1914-03-08

which might arise from the consumption
of burned or decomposed fats. For this
reason in preparing dishes ..au gratln"-
that is dishes baked with sprinkling of
cheese-the cheese should not be added
till the cooking process has been COM
pleted. The cheese should be added at the
last moment and allowed merely to melt,
but not to brown
The Italian who makes his midday
lunch on bread and cheese and a little
greens dressed with oil and possibly a
little light wine and sweet, ripe fruit
has about as sensible and as we'll pro-
he had studied the science of dietetics
all his life
One of the best ways to make use of
the food value Of cheese is to use 1t on
vegetables Potatoes. cauliflower. cab
bage and the various macaroni products
NAV all be baked with a generous graft
ing of any sort of mild cheese applied
before they go into the oven.

covering of fur must be adapted
to stand cold weather The cold-storage
advocates say that a temperature regis
rering fifteen degrees below zero keeps
the fur in the best condition.
Whatever the verdict of the experts,
we all know that the sooner We put our
furs away, even if we put them into an
attic where the temperature is more
likely to register a hundred in the shade
than fifteen degrees below zero, the less
likelihood there is that moths will ruin
them.
So it behooves us to discard our furs
with the first warm days and to put them
away Immediately. II they are to go
mo cold storage. where, 1t is said their
natural oils are not dried out as they
are in warm temperature, they will go
before they have had chance to be af-
fected by she warmth. If they are to go
into the attic. they will go before the
moths have got after them.
Even cold storage Is not proof against
moth eggs If once the eggs are laid,
there seems to be little hope Of preserving
the fur intact. The eggs will not hatch

le You Meet a Ghost, Grasp 1t

French woman who was born in I6Ss-
at an age when superstition was ram
pant-once visited some friends' in the
country. They lived in charming old
house. But they complained to Nine.
des Houlieres as soon as they saw her,
although they liked the house very
much, one of the rooms was haunted,
and therefore could not be used.
1t was a sleeping room, and every
night a ghost was heard prowling
about in it
Nine des Houlieres was skeptical
about the reality of the ghost and
begged to be allowed to sleep in the
haunted room. Every one in the house
was aghast Even her stalwart host
begged her not to enter the room at
night. But she finally won her way
and was allowed to sleep in the haunt
ed room.
Toward morning. to be sure, Nine. des
Houlieres heard a muffied, ghostly
tread. She sprang quickly from her
bed In the darkness she made out a
shadowy form. And she grasped the
ghost firmly. She could not tell what
she held. 1t was just soft. small
something which she held between her
two hands. But she held on. And
shortly the dawn revealed to her that
she was graspiug the ear of a huge,
shaggy dog The dog, badly fright
ened was perfectly still-more fright
ened at his night time encounter than
was the woman.
When the members OF the family were
assembled Nine. des Houieres led her
shaggy captive among them. They recog-
nized him as one of the dogs that stayed
about the stables. The room where he
prowled was always left with open
door, and 1t was warmer and more
comfortable than the stable yard,
where he was left to sleep. So each
night he wandered through the house
until he came to the big, deserted room
and then took possession of il as a
ghost"
Nine. des Houlieres was much amused
by her experience in having shown her
superstitious friends the error of their
ways. And they, of course, were
ashamed of their superstition in a per-
fectly modern way.
OF course Nine. des Houlieres' way
Of facing superstition and explaining
it was the only sensible thing to do.
But how many of us are there even in
