Cornell Spots Fertility
of Eggs by Electricity

ITHACA. y. Y.--lNS Measure
ment OF animal electricity in
Matching eggs and gauging the ply
sical and chemical changes in
newly-laid eggs by electrical ef-
fects in a radio frequency field.
are two methods OF separation OF
fertile and infertile eggs now be-
ing developed by scientists OF Cor
nell University.
Because hatcherymen now have
no practical means OF separating
fertile from infertile eggs before
they are put in the incubators,
some $50 million infertile eggs are
ruined each year for human food
by being put into incubators. This
amounts to 10 per cent OF the total
number of eggs used for Matching
Two Methods Tried Out
Poultrymen have found that the
culling OF poor birds from the
breeding flocks does not prevent
production of some infertile eggs.
nor does removal OF infertile eggs
after six or seven days of incu-
baton prove practical, because Of
the labor involved. After a few
days at incubating temperature.
the eggs have lost much OF their
quality.
About four years ago al Cornell
two methods of testing eggs for
fertility were selected out of many
trials. The methods were picked.
according to Prof. Alexis l.. Rom
anoff, so that eggs sorted out
would be left intact for market
use.
The two methods on which work
continues. are: measurement of
| life activity In the bastoderm of
the egg. and the measurement of
the physical and chemical changes
in newlylaid eggs by means OF a
radio frequency field.
How Tests Are Made
BY the first method, the "ani-
NAL electricity" in the blastoderm.
the seat of the chick embryo, has
been measured in dissected eggs,
and found to be different I'm fertile
and unfertile eggs. TO make this
difference measurable in unbroken
eggs, attempts are being made TO
stimulate the living part of the
egg to increase this difference

self, If you knew e" Andrea re-
piled darkly, but she sat down and
got the crumpled sheets Of Jims

Beth took the letter to the chair
by the lamp.

"And tell me that he isn't dream

What about my trousseau. He

ly," and give me a chance to read

paced the small confines OF the
room.
Beth finally finished reading the
letter. Her eyes were darkly trou-
bled when she folded the sheets
neatly and laid them on the table.

TO continue, you're going to make
an awful mess of your happiness,
and Jim's, too, unless you begin
thinking he knows what's best for
both of you. And think it for the
rest OF your life together. Jims a
boy with a mind of his own and a
will as strong as yours, and you can
count on him to use them both"

him better than / do?" Andrea
asked with dangerous calm

into the bathroom and wash your
face, and calm down If you're stay

might as well make the most of it."

and then turned back to the door,

Andrea went on into the bath
room. When she came back few
minutes later, Beth was relieved
to see that she was thoughtful, no
longer angry.
Helping herself to Be.h's powder
and lipstick, she said, "You read all

I was to have a good time" She
fluffed her dark hair at the back OF

"I'll thank you not to try to fig-
