Many Eggs Broken Through
Bad Packing and Shipment

amined and the location in the card
board partitions of each broken egg
on each layer of eggs was charted to
determine whether breakage was I'M
usually heavy in any particular point
OF the box. 1t was found, however,
that the breakage in the packing
houses was distributed throughout the
case.
AS result of this examination Of
packed cases egg by egg, it was found
that 1922 eggs per case on an average,
or 5.34 per cent, had cracked shells
before they were put on the railroad
cars. These eggs were then repacked
and shipped to distant points, and
again examined egg by egg on their ar
rival. 1t was found that during the
transfer to the car, slowing, hauling,
railroad trip and unloading, there was
an additional breakage of SIS eggs
per case on an average, which made a
total of 24.96 eggs in bad order out
of every thirty dozen that arrived. In
other words 6.94 per cent of all eggs
shipped in car lots are received with
damaged shells.
These figures, however, do not at
all represent the actual total damage
from breakage. Practically every leak
er and every mashed egg in a case
lowers the value Of several eggs around
or below 1t, because each leaking egg
soils a number of other eggs and re-
duces their market value Further, il
does not include any deterioration OF
spoilage of whole eggs on account OF
heat or faulty refrigeration.

Washington. April 16.--Nearly seven
per cent of all eggs packed in crates
and shipped arrive at their destination
- bad order. according to figures just
Obtained by the Food Research Labor
atory Of the United States Department.
Of Agriculture. This means that on an
average 24.96 eggs out of every 80
dozen packed and shipped arrive at
the market either as cracks, dents,
leakers, or mashes. These figures
were obtained as a result of the indi-
xidual examination of 5000 dozen eggs
before and after shipment, and furth-
or general study of the condition of II
carloads, or over 100000 dozen eggs
shipped from SO packing houses in the
con-belt to 10 different markets on
the eastern coast. The result of this
study have been formulated in a pre-.
liminary report which is submitted to
the joint committee representing the
EGG shippers, the railroads and the
united States Department of Agricul-
ture.
These figures mean that in New York
City alone 116,66s,267 eggs arrive at
the railroad and other terminals in bad
condition.
To determine whether the egg break
age was due principally to the Earring
OF the eggs received in railroad cars,
or to carelessness on the part Of the
packers, the departments investigators
personally unpacked at the packing
house over 200 cases of eggs, contain
ing 5000 dozen. Every egg was eY
