A machine which automatically picks
out stale eggs and grades the fresh ones
according to their weight was recently
shown at a London dairy show. The
device consists Of series OF runways
resembling toy railway lines. set on a
gradient down which the eggs roll by
gTavitation. In their descent they pass
over series Of fitting balances, which
pick out automatically those that cor
respond with the standard weights at
which the balances are set. The eggs
thus derailed are tipped into miniature
lifts. and pass. one at time, to further
sets Of rails. whence they viii roll into
