Produce Infertile Eggs.

The department of agriculture es-
Inmates that 100000 worth of eggs
are wasted annually from bloodrings,
and they are very anxious to increase
the food supply by preventing this
enormous waste.
1t is fact that fertile egg starts
to incubate before the egg is laid. Of
course, 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 sc
hours Of cubation-enough to start
| the germ-then when allowed to cool
the blood rings form.
Remove all male birds now that
Matching is over; then remove all set
ting hens from the nests as soon as
they begin to show signs Of broodi-
ness.
The blood spot, which is quite COM
mon in fresh eggs during hot weather
is easily distinguished from the blood
ring and is caused in most cases by
hens being too fat. Prevention in
this case is also saving to you; dc
not feed so much grain, as they get
too fat.
| Eggs on very not Gays SnOuld DC

cool, dry place so that the germ is
allowed to remain dormant. Improve
