HANDLING AND STORING EGGS
Much Deterioration Caused by I'M
proper Observation-Disclosures Dc.
mand for Best Quality.

The fresh egg Is clean, wholesome,
and of good flavor, but is very sus.
ceptiole to deterioration by improper
storage and handling. 1t often hap.
pens that the points of egg production
are distant from the place where they
are used, and there must be some de.
lay before eggs reach the consumer.
There has always been an unlimited
demand for best-Iuality eggs, for
which discriminating customers do not
hesitate to pay premium.
The recent disclosures of putrid eggs
b ing used for baking purposes have
produced much alarm among consum.
crs. This has had u tendency to re.
duce the consumption of eggs. There
is also fear in the mind of person
breaking boiled egg that it will be
spoiled. 1t is not. the loss of food
contents in the egg that is feared, but
rather the mental shock produced by
the sight and odor of n spoiled egg.-

There is profit in keeping n good
poultry flock. This was shown by a
flock of White Lcghorn pullets at the
University Of Missouri. From so to 90
birds were housed in an open front
poultry house with a yard 100 feet
square which was sowed to wheat In
the fall. This furnished green food in
the late fall and early spring and was
not charged against their feed bill.
In years time the fowls consumed
1888 pounds of grain and 962 pounds
Of mash. The total cost of the feed
was $66.27. In estimating this cost
the following prices per 100 pounds
were used: Wheat, $1.66; corn, $1.60;
bran, $1.20; cornmeal, SITS; shorts,
S1.40; and beef scraps, 1925. These
prices are higher than the feed would
bring If sold by the farmer, but at
that the flock returned a good profit.
They produced a total of s,057 eggs
at food cost Of 101k cents a dozen.
At the prevailing prices the eggs sold
for $15717, thus giving a total profit
of $4,000.
At an average price of 23.4 cents a
dozen the hens returned a profit Of a
dollar and a half apiece above the cost
Of feed. Even at an average price Of
20 cents a dozen the hens doubled the
value of the feed.
They were fed as a scratch food a
mixture Of two parts cracked corn and
one part wheat. The mash consisted
OF equal parts Of bran, shorts, corn
meal and beef scrap. Grit, oyster shell
and water were kept before the birds
all the time.

II, for no apparent reason, there Is
lack of thrift among your young
chicks, perhaps the cause is lice, or
worms in the lntGstineS. Examine the
chicks about the head for head lice.
Lice are more likely to be present on
hen-ralSed chicks. If lice are found,
grease the heads of the chicks with
lard which IS free from salt. Do not
use lard and sulphur. Apply tile lard
with the finger, rubbing the head,
neck, under the wings and around the
vent. The broodlng hen should also
be treated. One OF the best methods
of extermlnating lice on the mature
fowls Is to rub a piece of blue oint-
ment, the size Of pea, into the skin
just beneath the vent, and also under
