Poultry Producers Now
Favoring Infertile Egg

The heat Of summer has exactly the
same effect upon fertile & & as does
the hen or the incubator used to hatch
them The fertile germ In hot weather
quickly develops into a blood ring
which spoils the egg for food or mar
kst purposes. Heat Is the great N
envy Of eggs, both fertile aud In
fertile. On this account poultry pro-
ducers are urged to keep nests clean
during warm weather; to provide n
nest for every four fowls, in order that
the nests may not be used too often
and soil the eggs to gather eggs twice
daily to keep eggs In a cool, dry room
OF cellar; to market eggs at least twice
a week.
Hens isolated on range and pasture
from the male birds produce infertile
eggs cf desirable market quality. In
general, about two weeks after the
ROSTERS are removed from the fock
the hens viii again yield inferile eggs.
Occasionally hens running with male
birds produce infertils egvs but as q
rule this results from the fowls being
confined too closely, being overfat. or
not having access to enough green
feed.

These tubercles are often found on the
