How are we To breed so that we may
improve the quality of tho eggs? we
know II To he fact that IL hen Laws

egg year i'm and year out OF course
VIC know that the first cgcs Of n null
let are small and will gradually in
crease in size until they reach their
normal state. We also know that il,
varieties "f poultry which lay brown
eggs the last eggs OF a litter Will he
somewhat lighter in color than will
the first eggs laid. so VIC can see that
the shape and color of an egg changes
slightly.
In Attempting to breed to improve
the quality of eggs, we advise the Sc
lection OF eggs for incubation only OF
the Kind which YOU wish to produce.
If YOU want dead white eggs. do not
incuhat" any that are tinted in the
least If YOU want pure. uniform
brown egg. then select only that kind
See that none Of them weigh less than
two ounces ana arc of the perfect
shape which YOU desire. and all OF
sound smooth shell. Use males for
mating with these selected hens that
were hatchcd from hens that lay the
same Kind OF AN cEE. Use the same
process OF selection the following year
and In II short period of time you will
find that the number OF eggs which
viii have To he culicd out will grow
or percentage OF your cgGs Will grade
as iirstS.
Il is advisable To use hens for breed
ing purposes because they lay Il larger
egg than the pullcts. and they lay
fewer eggs in the fall and winter and
arc III much better condition for breed
inc purposes in the spring months than
are the pullcts. Ey all means, In
breeding for quality in eggs. use pure
bred fowls. It would be an endless
task to try To change the quality OF
eggs hy breeding from monErcls and
nondeScripts Neither will YOU make
much progress by trying TO breed from
grades OF cross breeds.
Some farmers and poultry raiscrs
make u practice of putting eggs on tho
market which they have had in an in
cuhator for - few days and found tho

practice and should mover he done by
any honest farmer or poultry raiser.
You may make good use Of such eggs

eggs. while good for home Consump-

The yolks Will break. the eggs will

10 offer such eggs for sal" as fresh
laid eggs. and you lower tho price on
all eggs by so doing. Consume such
