When Eggs Are Cheap
[MRECTLY eggs reach the minimum *■ price-level, the housewife begins to preserve them, or "put them down" as she calls it, for use at a time when their price is at its high-water level. This is a recognised spring task, as regular as spring-cleaning. Egg-preserving methods have been so much improved lately that the preserved eggs, after as long as a year, may be eaten, boiled or in other ways, with no noticeable difference between them and newly-laid eggs. The yolk does not break, as was once the case with preserved eggs, and the preparation in which the eggs have been placed is not slimy or unpleasant. Modern preserving preparations are not at all expensive.
