Produce Infertile Eggs

The Department of Agriculture esti-
mates that S7,OOO,OOO worth of eggs
are wasted annually from bloodrings.
and they are very anxious to increase
the food supply by preventing this enor.
nous waste.
1t is fact that a fertile egg starts to
incubate before the egg islaid. Ofcourse,
it remains dormant if allowed to cool
after laying; but if the nests are full OF
setting hens and the egg is laid early in
the morning, naturally it has no chance
to cool; and if some eggs are overlooked
in gathering at night, they would have
at least SO hours of incubation-enough
TO start the germ-then when allo wed to
cool the blood rings form.

rather Warren would pay it than to

surely he ought to pay whatever bills
there were without protest.

about the chauffeur's dinner. sir, and
that you said serve it,
; "Of course 1 said serve ito serve
anything within reason. All the road

feur's dinner for a dollar. But this

Everything here is la carte and the
prices for the chauffeur are same as
for you. The food costs just as much
and the service is just the same
Then you mean you'll not do any
thing about this check?'
I'm afraid I can't, sir We served
what was ordered and those are our
prices
"All right" and Warren slammed
down the check and the twenty dol
lars and the other check. 'Ill pay it,

pay another bill at this place, and III

followed them and the hot color deep
ened on her face.
