Pleasant Grove Review | 1933-06-23 | Page 3 | For Storing Eggs

For Storing Eggs The water glass method to preserve pre-serve eggs Is probably the most popular used In farm homes. The liquid water glass can be purchased at most drug stores. To each pint of this liquid add 10 pints of water that has been boiled and allowed to cool. Stir this mixture thoroughly thorough-ly In a three-gallon Jar, and then put in the eggs. Care most be taken tak-en when placing the eggs In the jar so they will not crack when reaching the bottom. Cover the jar with a thick cloth and paper to exclude ex-clude as much air as possible. After the mixture has been prepared, pre-pared, you may add the eggs as they are gathered until the Jar Is full, always being careful to cover the jar again each time. Store in a cool place and the eggs will keep for a year. There Is also a commercial com-mercial salve compound that can be purchased that Is spread or nibbed on the eggs. This salve Is said to close the pores of the egg shell and thereby prevent them from hemming hemm-ing stale. Indiana Farmer's Guide.
