This chart shows the eggs in their
natural size as they appear before

open in a glass saucer. The pic
lures include an ABSOLUTELY fresh
egg. slightly stale eggs, decidedly
stale eggs. eggs with yolks stick
ing to the shell, eggs where the
chicken has developed so far that
blood has been formed. moldy eggs,
added eggs, and eggs with a green
white.
Comparatively few housewives are
aware that a green color In the white
of eggs is due to the presence OF
billions of a certain species Of bac
terra that make green coloring
matter. Eggs with this greenlsh
tint, even though the yoiKs seem
TO be perfect are not fit for food.
As long as the departments sup
ply lasts. these charts will be furn-
ished free upon application to the

cations. Commercial shippers of
eggs, however, should apply for De-
partmental Bulletin 81. a technical
