sary to cut the price of eggs con-
siderably during hot wether. The
reduction in price is due largely to
the blood rings and developed
hatch spots which constitute a
large percentake of the spoiled
eggs that reach the market during
hot weather. These defects are due
directly to the fact that fertile eggs
spoil quickly when exposed to sum
mer heat.
Not only have egg dealers given
their moral support to the cam
paign, but in some places they have
called meetings to discuss ways
and means to carry on the work.
More than $500 was raised by the
dealers to be used in advertising
and for prizes to be given for the
marketing of better eggs. Fifty
thousand copies of circular con-
tanning the Missouri state law, to-
gether with valuable suggestions
pertaining to handling market eggs
were distributed in one section of
the state as part of the publicity
campaign. Articles appeared
weekly in the country newspapers
giving further information and sug-
gestions.
This sort of work is making IN
equaled progress for the poultry
industry in general, say the depart
ment poultry specialists. The sys-
TEN with which poultry extension
work is being conducted is very
largely responsible for this result.
More than a third of all Amer
lean carpets are woven in Philadel-
