The Public Works Administrat ton

spectors to speed up all projects under
the new S1,365 100000 P. w. A. pro-
gram.
"P. w. A. is on trial" said Acting

over the heaviest schedule of non-
Federal projects in the shortest time
ever allotted for public works pro-
gram"
The inspectors, Mr.. Gray said. will
be chosen from experienced P. w. A.
engineers and each will be given from
10 to 80 projects. They will make sure
that applicants CASUALLY municipali-
ties) do not delay in financing 55 per
cent of the construction cost, in meet
ing specifications, and in letting con-
tracts.
These were the principal items of
delay under the previous P. w. A. pro-
grams when regional officers handled
all contacts between applicants and
Washington headquarters. officials
said the smaller areas of operation
would speed up spending which the
pending legislation says must be COM
pleted by the fall of 1910.
The directors. hastily summoned to
learn arrangements for putting the
program into operation. left for their
field offices today prepared to send in
about 1000 new applications for prof.
ects as soon as the spending-lending
bill is enacted. A congressional COM

ures.
Mr.. Gray told the regional directors
that all new applications must be in
by September 81, and that construc-
ton must be started not later than
March 81, 1889, and completed by Sep
tember 30, 1910.
He pointed out that $l,165 ZOO. 900 of
non-Federal projects and 5000, 900 900
of Federal projects were contemplated
under the new program, whereas only
$500 100000 went for non Federal

"a the STR Walter ylNtcl

Raleigh, Jan. 21-The number OF
Inquiries icing received from indus
tries asking for information concern
ing North Carolina is increasing
steadily, according to j. T. Anderson,
industrial engineer and chief Of the
commerce and industry division Of the
Department of Conservation and De-
velopment.
These inquiries are also coming
from a much more varied field than
was the case at first, and many are
traceable to the agricultural and in
dustrial advertisements which the
State Advertising Division started in
November and December, Mr.. Ander-
son said.
During the past month inquiries
have been received from a glass manu-
featuring concern asking for data on
the location of raw materials in North
Carolina used in the manufacture of
glass. Another firm has asked for in
formation about the tanning industry
in the State with a possible view to
establishing a tannery, while an in
quiry has also been received relative
to the establishment Of a glue factory
The packing industry has become
interested in the State as the result
of agricultural advertisements which
have appeared and is already seeking
information as to the supply of live
stock and the possibilities of the
growth of livestock farming, with a
view to determining whether it will
be worth while to establish q meat
packing plant in the State, Mr.. An
derson said.
The wood pulp industry continues
to show very decided interest in
North Carolina and several large pulp
wood concerns are known to be con-
sidering the location of new plants in

IDENTIFICATION OF
EGGS EASY MATTER
Dearstyne, State College Poultry Ex-
pert, Tells of Method of
Learning Fertility
Daily Dispatch Bureau.
In The S5r waiter Hotel

Raleigh, Jan. q Fertile and in
fertile hens egg can be identified
with high degree of accuracy after
the eggs have been incusated from IA
to 20 hours, according to Roy S. Dear
styne, head of the State College poul-
try department.
Because the method of determining
fertile and infertile eggs is relatively
simple, the average poultryman can
do the work effectively after few
hours of practice. All the equipment
needed is an ordinary egg candlar and
a Is watt bulb. However, daylight
bulb or a blue-green bulb aids in see
ing the embryo and makes identifi-
cation more accurate.
The embryos that can be seen after
a dozen or more hours of incuhation
contain no :clood, cover an lea on
the yolk about the size of a d-n1e, and
appear before the Gambler as a small
spot This effect is caused by slight
bulge of the embryo on the surface of
the yolk. In the infertile eggs no de-
velopmert is seen.
Dearstyne pointed out that some
embryos develop faster than others
and that some are further developed
when placed in the incubator. Some
of the embryos are developed enough
in fresh egg to determine fertility.
However, ne State College poultry
man said, most eggs take II hours or
more of incubation before the two
classes can be identified accurately.
Research men have been aale to iden-
tify 1872 per cent of the embryos at
II hours, 92.1 per cent at Il hours,
97.1 per cent at II hours, 976 per cent
at 16 hours, and 971 per cent at Is
hours.
Such finding are of practical value,
Dearstyne said. For example, it is US
ually conceded that 10 per cent of all
eggs set are infertile.
