Neither Size, Shape Nor Color Enters
Into Food Value Of an EGG.

is stated on good authority that in
bigh-class hotels and restaurants.
where great attention is paid to details,
II has been found that the boiled eggs
served must match in color.
The egg yolk owes its Characteristic
yellow color to pigment whose chem
ical nature has been carefully studied.
The depth of the yellow color appar-
emily depends-in large measure, at
least-upon the presence Of green feed
in the ration, and pale-colored yolks In
dictate that such feed is deficient.
Though frequently the yolk Is pale. the
color which we commonly regard as
standard is decided yellow, and so
the pale-yolked eggs are often said by
housekeepers to be inferior, as a given
number of such yolks impart to cake
or custard less Of the yellow color re-
garded as an indication of richness
than do eggs of darker yolk, belief
which chemical analysis does not
justify.
Although, as stated above, variations
in color do not imply variations In food
value, II Is not at all unlikely that
there are differences In flavor CORE
spending to the color of the egg yolk,
that which is deep yellow having q
more pronounced flavor than the pale
one. At any rate, as long as prefer
ence for deep-colored yolks and pale
whites exists the poultry raiser who
caters to q fancy market should take
such factors into account.

NO don't want white-shelled eggs.
! don't think they are as good as the
-shelled." one frequently hears a
housekeeper remark. or just as often
it is, Il want white sheiied eggs, we
don't care for those with brown shells.
Each group is confident they are IN the
right. but extended invest igatious made
ut some Of the agricultural experiment
stations, in which many analyses were
made of eggs from different kinds of
hens, have shown plainly that there
are no uniform variations IN the rhysi-
cal properties and chemical compost
ton Of brown Shelled rs compared with
white shelled eggs. Such tests Justify
the statement that the eggs Of any
given breed of hens, whatever the color
of the shells. are. on an average, as
nutritious as those of another breed.
provided the eggs are OF the same sIz"
and freshness and the fowls are cquas-

The color of the shells whatever it's
reason. is feature which has some eff
feet on the. market value of eggs of do
nestle poultry, although not upon their
food value, the hroNn-shelled eggs
bringing the higher price. for instance,
in the Boston market, ana the white
shelled eggs in the New York market,
in England the preference is decidedly
in favor of the tinted eggs. Such local
differences probably originated in the
fact that some one breed of hens was
once chiefly used in q given region and
its type Of eggs set the standard there.
The color of the egg content is also
matter of interest with respect TO
market value and domestic uses. Raw
egg white has n more or less greenish
tinge, which is apparently Influenced
somewhat by the character of the feed.

been Isolated from 1t. When the albu-

the color varies from white to pale
greenlsh or yellcwish tones, hard to de-
fine, yet distinct. There Is @ belief that
eggs with shells Of the same color
should show the same colGr In the
cooked whites and that the cooked al

eddy whittier than that Of eggs with
tinted shells.

the standardization Of practically the
entire Bermuda onion industry in the
United States.
United States grades for Bermuda
onions were recommended by the De
partment of Agriculture In the spring
of 1918. The same year the state of
Texas leglslated the compulsory grad
ing Of Bermuda onions according to the
grades promulgated by the department
and adopted by the Texas state depart
ment of agriculture.
When the onion shippers N the Goa
chella valley requested inspection serv-
Ice from the California state depart

ment Indicated that II would be i'm
practicable to render such service I'M
less suitable grades were agreed upon
as basis for Inspection. Accordingly,
the shippers made comprehensive
study Of onion grades and decided
finally TO use the grades recommended
by the Department Of Agriculture. Per
haps the most important consideration
leading to this decision was the fact
that since the adoption of the depart
ment's grades In Texas there has been
considerable decrease In the number
Of rejected Texas onion shipments.
