Preserving Eggs.
The following method of preserving
"ggs is taken from Farmer's Bulletin
No. 273, U. S. Dept. of Agriculturo: If.
enables farmers, poultry men and con
sumers to put away eggs in summer,
when they are plentiful and cheap, and
presorve them until the winter season,
when thoy are scarce and high in price.
The wnter glass method is used, n ten
per cent solution keeping eggs for eight
months in prime condition.
The cost of preserving eggs in a ten
per, cent water glass solution, exclusiyo
of the containers, is less than one cent
per dozen.
Water glass can bo obtainad of
Schiller & Co., Family Drnggists, North
Platte, Nebraska, at ten cents per pound
and a pound of it properly diluted to
make a ten per cent solution, will be
enough to cover twelve to fifteen dozen
Stone jars ,aro the beBt to keep the
eggs in, as you can cover it tightly, pre
venting evaporation and eggs will not
absorb any odors from them.
Use only perfectly fresh eggs ns stale
eggs will not. keep by nny method of
preservation. Uean tne stone jars
thoroughly by scalding. Prepare the
solution, using water thot has been
first boiled then cooled to ordinary
temperature. To each pound of wator
glabs use ten pounds of water. Pack
the eggs in the Jar and pour the liquid
over them, covering the eggs complete
ly. Do not wash the eggs before
packing them, as this may injure their
keeping qualities.by removing a natural
protective coating on the outside of the
snclls.
Keep tho eggs packed in 'this manner
in a cool, dry place, such ns a dry cool
cellar.
Each day's gathering of eggs may be
packed immediately after gathering by
placing them in the j'ar and pouring
over them just enough of the solution
to cover tnem. Tins is better than to
hold tho eggs for several days at tho
risk of their becoming stale in order to
have a sufficient number to fill the
entire jar.

DID YOU EVER
Stop to Consider When Buying Dry
Goods that Quality Means Durability?
Everything we show you you can rely on their
giving1 you entire satisfaction.
We have made careful selections. Bought only
the best merchandise. Have only the best to sell.
Did you know our entire line of spring goods is
new? It is?
Our entire stock is new. Can you really afford to
buy goods that you don't know whether they are old
or not, when you have the opportunity of buying new,
clean goods at less money? A great many assortments
can only be called such, because tbey are four or five
years left overs. Just a few articles bought" each year
to freshen up the stock. If you want old goods don't
come here. We haven't any. But, if you want new.
goods, come here, it will save you time and money by
doing so.
