Some of these surplus eggs can be saved by putting them down In waterglass, so as to have more avallable for the winter months when the hens do not lay so well. Fresh eggs properly preserved Putting Eggs Down Solution, in Waterglass may be kept in good condition for cooking purposes for elght to twelve monihs, Eggs are an Important addition to the diet at all times. For growing children they are so important that nutrition specialists recommend an exg every day or every other day for children over two years of age.

Probably no single article of food an be utilized by the housewife in a treater number of dishes than eggs. Eggs preserved In waterglass can be used with good results for all pur- poses In cooking and for the table When such eggs are to be boiled, a small hole should be made with a pin in the shell at the large end, before putting them In the water. This is done to allow the air in the egg to excape when the egg is heated, and so prevent cracking. Only very fresh preferably from one to three days old, should be preserved. If possible the eggs should be infertile. Under no circumstances should badly solled eggs be used. Dirty eggs will spoil, and if they are washed the protective coating which prevents spoiling Is removed. Cracked eggs should never be put down In waterglass. Even minute cracks may cause spoilage and contamination of the other eggs in the jar. It is a wise precaution to examine every egg by candling It before using. Usually a few eggs are put down In waterglass at a time, whenever they are not needed for Immediate con sumption. A five-gallon crock, there fore, is a good size to use for the pur- pose. It should be set wherever it is to be kept before any eggs are put in, as it would be difficult to move it without endangering the eggs, later on. A five-galion jar will be large enough to hold 15 dozen eggs and still permit at least two Inches of the waterglase solution to stand over the tops of the eggs. The United States Department of Agriculture gives the following direc. tions for the preparation of the crock and the preserving solution: First clean the crock thoroughly. Beald it and allow it to dry. quantity of water to the boiling point and allow It to cool, When it is cool, measure out nine gallons of water, and add one guart of sodium silicate, or waterginss, which can be bought In most dfug stores.
