PRESERVATION OF EGGS IN
WATER GLASS,

Eggs should be preserved dur
ing April, May and June when
the production is greatest and the
price is lowest. Eggs preserved
in water glass can be successfully
kept as long time as ONE year.
They are practically as good as
fresh eggs for all cooking pur-
poses. Water glass in the form
of a powder is now on the mar
ket. 1t can be dissolved in def
mite quantity of water as stated
in the directions on the package,
and for this reason is more re-
liable than the commercial sol..-
tion which varies in concentration
Directions.
If the commercial water-glass
solution is used. mix l IL quarts
with 1S quarts pure water; water
that has been boiled is preferable.
Stir the mixture until the ingred-
tents are thoroughly mixed. A
stone jar is the most suitable YES
sci for the mixture. Two eight
gallon jars are sufficient amount
just prescribed. After the for
thirty dozen eggs, using the wa
ter glass is thoroughly mixed,
pour it into the vessels to be used.
being sure that the vessels are OBJ
solutely clean. Place the eggs in
the water glass, see that those at
the top are submerged under at
least two inches of the liquid, and
cover he jars in order to prevent
evaporation. Put the jars in a
cool. place where they will not be
disturbed.
Suggestions.
Preserve absolutely fresh eggs,
stale eggs will not keep in any
preservatise. Have your preser-
vative ready to receive the fresh
eggs as you get them. If there is
any doubt as to the freshness of
eggs. candle them. or see whether
they sink when placed in dish Of
fresh water. If an egg sinks, it
is absolutely fresh.
Do not preserve dirty eggs, or
eggs that have been washed.
! Washed eggs will not keep be-
.scause the protective gelatinous
boating has been removed by
washing; and dirty eggs will be-
come tainted in flavor. Do not
nse the same liquid preservative
more than one year. Use spring

Some Good Advice.

Don't think too much of your
own methods. Watch other peo-
pies ways and learn from them
This is good advice, especially
when bilious or constipated. You
will find many people who use
chamberlain Tablets for these
ailments with the best results, and
will do web TO follow their ex-
ample.

FARMERS MAY STILL
SECURE FLOUR PERMITS

ATLANTA, Ga, March 2. =
The card permit to farmers for ex-
emption from the requirement to pur-
chase simultaneously equal weight OF
offset cereals, is still in force and
effect. Dealers, wholesale and retail,
refuired by order of the food admins
tration to respect and honor the per
mits when properly signed and present
ed-and to retain each permit as his
authority for each transaction.
From several points in the state the
complaint has come to the office OF
the food administration that individual
retail dealers have declined to accept
and honor permits. Investigation has
shown that some of these cases spring
from lac kof understanding and these
have been set right by proper informa-
ton Others have been cited to show
cause in Atlanta on a fixed date why
they should not be ruled for violation
Of regulations
The flour purchase permit issued to

WHAT HAS BECOME OF Old
FASHION MUSTACHE CUPS

whiskered ones throughout the South
have raised the sentimental question
of what has become of the old-mus-
tache cup. How long since you have
seen one in use?
If you are more than twenty years
you can remember when father was
presented with a pink China one for
his birthday and how proudly he in

huge mustaches that made such cups
practical, but while the mustaches are
still here the cups have disappeared.

SMOTHER THE HUN.

Cordova this morning launched an other gas attack against the Huns in subscribing to the Fourth Liberty Loan bonds. The mere fact that Cor dova is many thousands of miles from the fighting line doesn't make a bit of difference. Cordova is going to hurl tens of thousands of gas grenades at the heads of the barbarians who are fighting the forces of civilization in France. It is going to do 1t by subscribing its full quota and more of the Fourth Liberty Loan.
 Maybe you will dig into your pocket with greater joy when you stop to think that every fortyfive cents that you lend to Uncle Sam will put a gas grenade in the hands of one of the boys over there.
 Cordova's minimum quota for the Fourth Liberty Loan has been placed at s71 300 and If this amount only should be subscribed, Cordova will buy about 15O.00O gas grenades for the boys who know what to do with them when they get them. Cant you hear the Huns cry "Kamerad" when those 150. 900 gas grenades are turned loose?
