POOR MARKET PRACTICE
TO WASH DIRTY EGGS

Washed eggs are really product
of lower value than dirty eggs, says
w D. Buchanan, extension poultry
specialist, for although they look bet
ter when clean and bring a better
price. the quality OF an egg is the final
check on its sales value. If quality is
jacrificed for looks, the final consum-
ar will eat fewer eggs and the result
is lower price for all eggs.
Some people have been told that
washed eggs keep just as well as I'M
washed eggs. but this is an error says
Mr.. Buchanan Washing removes the
protective bloom from the egg.
leaving the shell porous, Consequently
The contents evaporate more rapidly
the shrinkage is greater and the air
cell larger than in unwashed eggs.
Such eggs bring from two to four cents
a dozen less, and if put in storage
many of them will spoil The net re-
suit of washing is loss,
The way to get extra money for
clean eggs is to keep them clean adj
vises Mr.. Buchanan To do this he
suggests: Keep the nests clean. Clean
he dropping boards early every morn
ing. Keep the litter clean and dry
Keep the hens out of wet yards till
late in the afternoon. Do away with
broad boards in front of the nests; a
board on edge will stay cleaner
Gather the eggs frequently Keep them
in cool room in hot weather-this
will preserve the quality Never pack
not eggs during the summer months. II
you can't keep eggs clean in any other
way, install one of the new type nests
FOR keeping eggs clean
If eggs are kept clean, the producer
receives his money honestly and the
consumer gets what he pays for.
