Hdndlo Eggs With Caro for Economy Jarring or jouncing eggs is one way of breaking down their qual ity, say specialists of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The delicate structure inside the egg needs to be . protected. Even if Jouncing does not crack or break the shell, it may cause the white of the egg to lose much of its firm, upstanding quality. Commercial shippers have learned this and know that it pays not only to keep eggs cold but also to hold them as firmly as possible in transit. That's why they pack eggs in spe cially constructed containers, and stacjc the cases lightly when load' ing trucks or railroad cars. So the homemaker is advised to choose a location in the refrieera tor where eggs get as little jarring as possible. As for temperature, the rule is to keep eggs cold but above freezing! around 45 de grees F. J Stormg eggsj large end up, is recommended to keep the yolks well - centered. A clean, covered container is advised to reduce loss of moisture through the pores of the shells and also to prevent eggs from absorbing off-flavors , and odors. gelatine ; Wa cups apricot whole fruit nec tar : .
