How to Produce Good Eggs
For the Summer Markets

OF the 1,957OO0,000 dozens of eggs
produced annually in the United
States, it is estima,ed that nearly 8
per cent of those marketed are d
total loss.
This is due largely % improper
handling between the farm and the
msiket. Many farm ar3 look upon
egg5 as a by-product, and the returns
as so much clear gain. The hens
forage for a living; eggs are gather
ed whenever convenient and kept al
most anywhere. With such careless
ness and a combination of mongrel
stock, dirty nests! stolen nests of
broody hens, unconfined males, late
maturing pullets and other undesira-
bic conditions, is it any wonder that
the product includes a high percent
age of small, cracked, dirty. stale,
heated and even rotten eggs?
Care Should BE Given Market Eggs
Occasionally the accumulations of
all these kinds of eggs are taken
to the country merchants and eX-,
changed for merchandise. The mer-
chant usually buys these eggs, lease
count" paying the same price for
all kinds and sizes, provided the
shells are unbroken. Small produc-
ton results in small Or infrequent
shipments.
If possible. only noneertile eggs
should be produced for market; fer
tile eggs deteriorate rapidly and are
the cause Of much loss. A brooQy
hen on the nest, or exposure to
temperature from other sources suf-
ficient to start incubation, causes all
such eggs to be rejected when they
are candled.
Eggs should be cared for carefully.
Provide plenty of nests and keep

eggs should not be marketed and such
eggs should either be used at home
or cleaned before marketing.

sometimes happens, under ordinary
farm conditions, that an occasional

the process of testing eggs by pass

simple Gambling outfit may Ee made
of an ordinary pasteboard OR small
wooden box, sufficiently large, after
the ends have been removed, to be
placed over an electric light or Al
small hand lamp. A hole should be
cut in the box on level with the
flame of the lamp. Several holes,
to supply air to the lamp, should be
cut in the edges on which the box
rests. The box should be large
enough TO- prevent danger of catch
fire.
Gambling is done in the dark. Each
egg is held to the hole in the side
of the box, so it's condition may be
seen. An egg that shows any defect
should not be marketed.
