Light Is Inuented to Halt
waste of 3OO,OOO,OOO Eggs
Alabaman Claims Filtered Rays AlIo,O
Cut in Spoilage by Determining
Hatchability il, About IL Hours.

About 100000 900 good eggs year,
which would be enough to feed thou
sands Of persons, are wasted every
year because they will not hatch.
Most of these can be saved in edi-
BILE condition, according to the claims,
by device patented this week by Dale
F. King, of Auburn, Ala. which will
detect whether an incubated egg will
produce chicken or not before it has
a chance to spoil. From Is to 20 per
cent of all the eggs set annually in the
United States never hatch, MIR. King
claims.
His device involves Illuminating the
egg with filtered light from a 500
watt electric lamp within 10 or Is
hours after 1t is placed in the incu-
bator or under the mother hen. From
the light all the wave lengths below
the yellow and above the, blue are
filtered out. Slightly different light
nformulas are used for white and for
brown eggs. With these wave lengths
! eliminated, the inventor claims, the
strong greenish-blue light will pass
through the shell and the white of the
egg while the yolk will constitute an
, impenetrable background against
which the observer can see what is 60
ing on inside the shell. The fun white
light spectrum, he explains, also pene-
trates the yolk to some extent so that
there Is no sharp background.
Candle Method Permits Spoilage.
The method ordinarily used by poul-
try breeders to determine whether an
egg will hatch or not is to candle it,.
by letting white light shine through it.
Tnis is effective, but only after several
days have elapsed when the infertile
egg already is hopelessly spoiled. With
his method, Mr.. King says, the yolk
appears as a darkened background
against which the living "blastoderm,"
the first stage in the development of
the chick. can be discerned.
Actually, he says, the Matching proc
ess of fertile egg always starts be-
fore it is laid, due to the heat of the
hens body The process is stopped
at once when the egg is exposed to
outside temperatures, but is restarted
and proceeds very quickly in It's
tpitial stages once it is subjected to
heat again. Thus in from 10 to IS
hours it has developed sufficiently to
be seen, but the egg is in approxi-
mately as good condition as when 1t
1ahrst was laid and if not entirely suit
ed to the table can be used in the pro-
\ duction of candy, ice cream, cake, etc.
Sirup From Bananas.
A method of making a sirup and
iour of bananas, which might make
available for food much of the ba-
mana crop which now goes to waste,
was patented by Stephen A. Karas
OF Forest Hills. N. Y, The bananas
are peeled, mashed and placed in
ethyl alcohol at a ratio of about IS
gallons to 100 pounds of pulp After.
time the mash is filtered and the al
cohol removed by various processes.
The liquid which remains is light,
amber, yiscous, sweet liquid which
constitutes a concentration of the va
rions sugars present in the original
bananas.

tendency of corsets, to which the gar

Under present designs, she finds,
the. stresses are appropriately dis

She meets the problem by devfsing the
"high-backed stocking" which just

BY this means, she claims. the stresses

only offices in demand are con-

the big shots that administered
this relief were all for bigger and
better relief Now one of the big

You can't keep a Yankee from

Then how are you going to tell
where relief begins? One man gets
it for not doing this and one for
doing this, and one because he
can't do anything AND one be-
cause he won't do anything. Then
the "chiselers" start to work and
get theirs. Probably we ought to
