Preserved Eggs Reduce The High Cost
OF Living.

The disastrous slump in egg prices
caused by the railroad strike affords
an excellent opportunity to reduce
the high cost of living by preserving
enough eggs to serve the family dur
ing the months of high egg prices.
Reports from the farms entered in
the Missouri Farm Flock Contest show
that the average farm family ate
thirteen dozen eggs during March.
There is no more wholesome and
nutritious food than eggs, and family
of five might we'll use thirteen dozen
eggs each month in the year If prices
were not prohibitive.
By preserving eggs in water glass
during April and May cheap eggs may
be eaten thru out the year, says 7. s.
Townsley of the University of Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture. House.
wives have long recognized the wis
dom of canning fruits and vegetables,
but there is a good deal of prejudice
against eggs that have been packed
or stored. The principle involved in
preserving eggs is the same as that
used in canning. The product is
sealed up so that the air may be kept
out, thus preserving the food. Pre-
serving eggs is much easier than can
ming fruits and is just as successful.
Where the work is properly done,
eggs preserved in May can not be dis
tinguished from fresh eggs by either
taste or appearance when served in
February.
The only materials needed for pre-
serving infertile eggs are earthern-
ware jars for holding them, and a sup
ply of water glass to be mixed with
boiled rain water 10 form the preserv-
ing solution. Water glass can be
bought from most drug stores at 3
reasonable price. A five-gallon jar
is convenient unit for preserving
eggs. This will hold! about fifteen
dozen. One quart of water glass,
which should cost not more thau
thirty five or forty cents, will pre-
serve fifteen dozen eggs. Place the
fresh infertile eggs in the jar and
pour over them the preserving solu-
tion made by mixing one quart of
water glass with nine quarts of rain
water which has been boiled and cool
ed before the water glass is added.
The preserved eggs should be stored
in cool place and the jar should be
covered with oil cloth or waxed paper
to prevent evaporation of the water.
