plus eggs without any fear of the result. The first step is to purchase the water glass, which is known to the drug gist as silicate of soda.
 To preserve fresh eggs, di- lute one part water glass with ten parts boiled water. This proportion of water glass to water should be kept in mind as it IS essential that the solu- tioon not be made too weak. Whether one deals in pints, quarts or gallons, use one tenth as much glass as water. Only boiled water should be used.
 Glass jars, lard cans or any water tight receptacle can be used for containers. Of course the containers should be thoroughly cleaned before they are used.
 The eggs should be collect ed and put in the solution without delay. Stale eggs are

 Fresh eggs that are prop erly packed in a solution of water glass can be kept on the farm six to eight months without injury to the quality. In fact the authorities at the Arkansas Experiment Station claim that eggs kept II months in water glass could not be distinguished from fresh eggs. Other experiment stations have reported similar results, and hundreds of prac- tical farmers and poultry keepers have tested the meth cd entirely to their satisfac- tion.
 The water glass method is so simple that any farmer, or his wife, can follow these in structions and put up their sur-

The bottom has dropped out of the country egg market. As a result of the price slump, the farmer is disgusted, the consumer is happy and the cold storage man is busily engaged in filling his warehouses with cheap eggs. If the history of the market repeats itself, these eggs will sell next fall and winter at two or three times the price the farmer re- ceived for them.
 It is not necessary for the farmer to sell his eggs for ten to eighten cents per dozen un- less he chooses to do so. He can preserve fresh eggs now

QIl(AL@llU man arrives DIT WlIcu uc
\ 94Ie thinks of the new year is
H9DJkNS that he will turn over a
TlNANl new leaf, observes Laura
Jean Libbey. If he's single
he resolves that he'll cut loose from
the companions he has had-the jolly
fellows who are not just what they
ought to be. He makes up his mind
that he'll quit turning night into day,
arking around until the wee sma'
hours and attempting to work the
next day. He makes up his mind he'll
save money. Instead of going out with
the boys he'll hunt up the nice girls
whom he knows and spend his eve
nings with them. From the many he
will choose one girl who shall be
nearer and dearer yet than all others.
He thinks he has had quite enough
of bachelor life-in fact that he II
marry and settle down.
The married mans thoughts ara
along quite different line. He makes
up his mind to cut down the number
of clubs to which he belongs and give
his wife the new cloak she has been
pining for. He will fOrego the stag
rackets that he has been accustomed
to join in, telling his wife that hes
been to prayer meeting. He con-
cludes to give his wife little more
pleasure in the way Of outings, and
to pay her pretty compliments to
keep her heart from whitening alto
gether. He'll cease sneering when she
speaks of her relatives and refrain
from treating them shabbily when they
pay her a visit.
The father-in-law's thoughts take a
different turn. After long and serious
thought on the subject, he concludes
that he will shut his eyes to his SON
in-law's peccadilloes, give him a help
ing hand instead of grumbiing at the
manner in which he is keeping his
daughter; that he'll not take sides with
either when a family row is on.
The free lance concludes to cross
off all the married from his calling
list, and to turn his attention to the
women who are heart whole and fancy
free.
The conductor on the trolley car
concludes that he will begin the new
year by stopping at just the corner
that people want to get off at so that
he may gain the thanks of the trav-
elers instead of the upbraidings of
irate passengers who are obliged to
walk many blocks back.
The rounder who depends on the
lunch counter for his daily fare con-
cludes that he will accept. job from
any man who is inclined to give him
"A square deal. The gambler thinks he
will turn his attention from the tricks
of his trade because gambling is pro-
hibited in his state. He thinks he may
pick up a nimble penny by becoming
rousing misunderstanding the dell
round the stump. The milkman con-
cludes not to stop at the town pump
for a drink. the dashing chauffeur con-
cludes to put his name and address in
his Identification book when he goes
joy riding.
But do you think that these men will
keep these resolves? 1t is a good
thing to hope.
