Patented July llth, 1871. McKIM’S COMPOUND SOLUTION FOR PRESERVING EGGS is valuable to all classes of people: First.— The farmer .with It can keep his eggs pure, fresh and sweet, from the season df plenty to that of scarcity and realize the maximum prices paid for eggs during the winter. Second.— I The mechanic, the baker, the professional man, in fact all consumers can, by the aid of this Solution, keep a supply of eggs for their own use as long as they wish. By purchasing the eggs in summer or fail at six to ten cents per dozen and packing and preserving in this Solution for winter use, they can make a saving of fifty to three hundred per cent, in what would be the cost if bought in the winter. Third.—To the grocer and shipper IT is indispensihlk. The trader with tills Solution can make a larger profit on his eggs than on any other class of produce or merchandize ho handles. Aside from the advantage of packing and holding for high prices, the shipper with McKIM’S COMPOUND SOLUTION, can in ten days prepare his eggs for shipping in such a manner that they ship safely and remain pure and fresh from sixty to ninety days in any climate or weather, giving ample time to put them in any market in the United States.
