Poultry Specialists
Predict Fewer Eggs
And Lower Quality

Egg supplies for the remainder
of 1947 availale to consumers are
expected to be somewhat lighter
than they were year ago, poultry
specialists said this week.
For this reason, it was pointel
out, it is desirable that every effort
be made to make available to con-
sumers the greatest possible num-
Der of quality eggs. This can be
done by conserving quality from
the farm throughout all steps of
marketing, the specialists added.
Such efforts are particularly nee
essary throughout the late sum-
mer when the trade facs the
handicap of "hot weather eggs"
These not only reach the market
in large numbers at this seanson,
but tend to raise prices of the
less plentiful quality eggs, a
spokesman declared.
To help conserve the quality of
eggs produced, he offers these
timely suggestions:
Collect eggs at least three times
a day. Less frequent collections
delays the proper cooling Of eggs.
Collect eggs in wire baskets where
possible as this will permit the
circulation Of fresh air around
every egg. The basket should be
placed in a cool moist place for
at least "a hours before the eggs
are packed.
Eggs soon deteriorate if left
where it is too warm and dry. The
water in the eggs evaporates, the
air cell enlarges, the white be-
comes thin, and the yolk enlarges
and weakens. A humidity of IS
to 90 percent is desirable when
eggs are to be stored for any
length of time. When the mois-
ture content of the air is less
than this average, steps should be
taken to supply more moisture.
One practical and effective meth
cd for use one farms is the hang
ing of wet burlap in rooms where
eggs are stored, or sprinkling or
moistening the floors and cases
or cartons in which eggs are to
be packed should be preceded in
the moist room.
To maintain top quality, eggs
should be kept under refrigeration
from the time they are gathered
until they are ready for .consum-
ton. If refrigeration is not avail
able, a house cellar or an outdoor
cellar may provide cool storage
space for them. Eggs asorb odors
quickly.

Patching will only prove a tenn
porary remedy for many cracks in
plastered walls, architectural en-
gineers of the u. S. Department
of Agriculture advise. Sooner or
later cracks may appear again if
The underlying cause has not been
remedied. Cracks are often a
sign that foundations are settling,
supporting posts are rotting, or
timbers are shrinking. Much fu-
ture trouble can be avoided if re-
pairs are made to framework or
foundation as soon as definite
cracks show up.
To discover where repairs are

ton underneath.
If ceilings are badly cracked,
the joists that support them may
be too light to prevent sagging.
New plaser will not help unless
the joists are strengthened first.
Cracks often appear in plaster
around chimneys passing through
the house. They occur at the
joining between masonry and the
wood framing, because wood
shrinks and swells with weather
but masonry does not. Once the
cause of cracks has been cured,
they may be filled in permanent
ly and successfully. When doing
this job, first remove all loose
material and dirt and open the
crack widee enough SO that plas-
tering material can be forced in
to the full depth Of the crack.
Spackling compound, which comes
as a powder to mix with water,
is easy to use and satisfactory
for small cracks. For wide cracks
and larger broken places, fibred
plaster or patching plaster is rec
commended.

Clean Up Date Set

Clean up! Paint upl And spruce upl
 Those are the watchwords of Kodiak Cleanup campaign, set for the week of September 21 to 26, it was announced today by the Civic Improvement Com- mittee of the Chamber of Com merce.
 Dr. A. Holmes Johnson, chair man, announced at the chamber meeting Thursday that while spring would be the natural time for the cleaning that the committee felt it was so direly needed as to warrant 8 campaign at thIs time.
 Tourists and strangers, he pointed out, come to town every week and trash piles and un- slightly premises hit them Tn the eye.
 City Ordinance No. 30, he ga d, will be used in any extreme cases where cooperation is not given.
 The ordinance provides: Any person respoDs ble for the depos- it ot refuse, rubbish, garbage. :. filth of any kind in streets, al- leys or on any premises in his possession or control. may be notified in writing and given a period of 5 days te correct con ditions."
 In event of failure to do so the ordinance provides that upon conviction the person may be deemed guilty of mlsdemeanor and fined not more than $50
 Plans for the drive were wolk ed out with the city officials and the city will collect all rubbish piled near rosdways for cleanup purposes during the week of the drive.
 Aimed at particularly in the drive are accumulations on many premises of scrap lumber and old piles of boards and discarded objects gradually allowed to ac. cumulate.
 Another suggestion of the com mittee that can still be carried cut at this time of year is paint ing of buildings, eutbulldings, fences and particularly oil stor age facilities. Unsightly exposed oil drums are detrimental to the appearance of many properties, the committee DO nted out.
