If you have chickens it is quite prob
able that more eggs will be lald dur
ing the spring and early summer than
the family can use. 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

Eggs are an Important addition to
the diet at all times. For growing
children they are so important that
nutrition specialists recommend an

children over two years of age. For
younger children the egg yolk only is
recommended.

Probably no single article of food

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
