PACK EGGS FOR WINTER

Eggs can be packed now for next
winters use. Mr.. G. E. Greaves with
che Extension Division North Dakota
Agricultural College found that one
locality that shipped out $50 cases of
eggs in summer had IS cases shipped
back in the winter when the price had
nearly doubled. This was poor econ

avoided if some of the eggs had been
packed. Any housewife can procure
Water Glass from the local drug store
and by following instructions she can
pack enough eggs during the summer
months to last her thru the winter
and at very small cost. Other pre-
servatives can be used such as lime,
salt, or lime and salt but water glass
is cleaner. ..E - %

Jack Heimes worked up a trade with
E. ]. Pegg recently for Hub car and
yesterday he went in to get the new
investment with view to showing it
off around town but after getting the
car out of the garage only few feet
he got stuck in the mud and it took
all afternoon to get the, contraption
back in the garage. We do not know
who is the most tickled to see Jack
enjoying this car, Lill Cowell, who
traded the blamed thing to Pegg, or
Pegg who pushed it off onto Heimes.
Anyway Jack is satisfied with his bar

IL IETEREsI-SANE-

One of the pig Improvements to be
made this year is the new Liberty
Park Addition to Valley City which
has recently been plated by the
Northwest Nursery Company, and on
which many lots have already been
sold and several houses will be built
in the near future. In addition to this
the company has asked the city to
have curb, gutter and sidewalk built
along the entire addition and want
the city to put in water mains, sewer
age and so forth. This means great
Improvements this year in the city
that will furnish all kinds Of work
for laboring men and others. Then
many curbs and cutters are to be Or
dered in in various parts Of the city
with many new sidewalks. crossings,
etc, SO that taking it as whole Valley
City is going to forge ahead wonder
fully on improvements this season
The new attition of the nursery COM
pany is located between here and the
Chautauqua grounds and will make
a fine improvement. Then we want to
remember that the big city heating
plant is coming which will be another
big thing for the city. Then one OF
the biggest things of all which we
have not said much about lately is the
big fiber mill that is being put in and
for which plans for the various build
ings are now being drawn. This is an
institution that will benefit Valley
City more than most any other insti,
tuition. It will find a market for fax
straw and for hemp which are strictly
farm products and will mean the
bringing of thousands Of dollars ir
business to the city every year This
new enterprise is now being pushed
rapidly and will be a big institution
furnishing work for many people anc
becoming one Of the big manufactur.
