The solution may be prepared, placed in the jar and fresh eggs added from time to time until the jar is filled, but, be sure that there is fully two inches of water glass solution to cover the eggs. Keep the eggs in a cool, dark place and well covered to prevent evaporation. A cool cellar is a good place in which to keep the eggs. If the eggs are kept in too warm a place the silicate is deposited and the eggs are not properly protected. Do not wash the eggs before packing, for by so doing you in- jure their keeping quality, probably by dissolving the mucilagenous coating on the outside of the shell. For packing use only perfectly fresh eggs, for stale eggs will not be saved and may prove harmful to the others. All packed eggs contain a little gas and in boiling such eggs they will crack. This may be prevented by making a pin- hole in the blunt end of the egg.
