House wives have chance right
now to invest little money that will
more than double in the next few
months.
Every year, around the Christmas
Holidays eggs, at that season needed
so much, advance greatly in prive.
Right now they are very cheap. Mr..
R. V. st. Dizier, Parish Farm Agent,
has a process for preserving these
cheap eggs so that they will keep
perfectly fresh until Christmas, and
at very little cost.
We interviewed Mr.. St. Dizier
Thursday, and he said he would glad
ly give us the directions for the bene-
fit of the readers Of The Iberian. Mr..
St. Dezier is doing a great deal for
the farmers and stock raisers of Ibe-
ria Parish, and he is glad of this OPP
portunity to do something of benefit
to the ladies also.
Here are his directions:
"Most every one has read how to
preserve eggs. Then why not do it ?
Purchase a quart of liquid water
glass or egg saver at the drug store
and preserve some eggs. These eggs
are just as good food for use in the
fall and winter months as are fresh
eggs. Why should we preserve? Be-
cause eggs are very cheap now 1t
will tend to raise the price. Because
as eggs are aggregating about twen-
ty cents per dozen and it costs only
from two to five cents per dozen, it
is very economical.
"How many of you would like to
have number Of eggs at twenty
two or twenty-five cents a dozen this
fall? Eggs are always two or three
times higher in price in fall and VIM
ter than in the spring.
HOW TO PRESERVE EGGS.
Fresh eggs properly preserved
may be kept from eight to twelve
months in excellent condition and used
with good results. Eggs laid during
April, May and early June have been
found to keep better than those laid
later in the season. If satisfactory
results are to be obtained the eggs
must be fresh, clean and infertile.

sary If the farmers Of the South are
to get on safe, firm ground again,"
said H. G. Hastings, President Of the
great Southeastern Fair.
1T looks as II we all went cotton
crazy last spring, despite all the dan.
ger signals flying and the disregard
of plain facts as to costs Of cotton
production. We have repeated our fol-
lies of 1911 and 1914 and piled up
debts based on costly food and grair
to be paid for by cotton that Is now
below cost of production.
with few exceptions those items
of food and grain could and should
have been produced on home acres
at one-third to one-half what the sup
ply merchant charges for them.
Cotton is the one best money crop
for the South, and probably always
will be. The time Of war prices is
over and the problem from now on is
to lower cost of production and at the
same time afford the cotton grower a
fair profit.
Cost of making cotton is primarily
the cost of food, grain and forage
for the farmer, his family, his labor
ers or tenants, and his work stock
Cutting food, grain and forage costs
by home production will reduce cot
ton costs from one-third to one-half,
PLANT for an abundance, Of food,
grain and forage, thus cutting down
store bills, and the lower prices for
cotton will not hurt so much. We car
not, with European countries 80 thor
oughly disorganised, reasonably expect
high prices for cotton for several years
and we must make cotton at lower
cost, or else quit cotton growing.
Most of US cannot quit cotton,
hence the absolute necessity Of food,
grain and forage planting In 1921
the making on home acres OF every
pound OF food and grain needed to see
us through.
"In this food production program.
take the home vegetable garden seri
ously. Give the home garden a square
