Egg Industry 10 Be Featured aE Fair

Among new and interesting displays and demonstrations that will be seen at the 1856 Matan- uska Valley Fair will be one section devoted to the egg in- dustry in Alaska.
 A new egg processing ma chine, made available by the Ma tional Poultry Equipment Go. of Benton, Washington, will be demonstrated during the three day fair. Various poultry farm CTS plan to assist by demonstra- ting the candling, cleaning and sizing of eggs. Although machin- es have been used in the past that do each individual process, this is the first machine that combines all three operations in one. Eggs are dry cleaned in this new machine, instead of the older method of washing with water. George CroWther, ADA in- spector, pointed out that by cleaning with sand paper there is less chance of bacteria staying on the eggs.
 Visitors to the exhibit will see hens housed as they would be on farm. They will be able to see the entire process of getting eggs ready for market, and may even be able to buy fresh Valley eggs from some Of the farmers participating in the demonstra- tion. They will see eggs candled to pick up defective eggs, then into the automatic cleaner where whirling sandpaper loops reVol- wing at high speed thoroughly sand the eggs to remove all dirt. Eggs then go onto an aato- matic Weigher which sorts them for size. This is the final step be- fore they are packed in attrac= tive egg cartons, stored under controlled refrigeration, ready for market in the best possible condition.
 The Department of Agrieul- ture figures show that there are about 19,000 laying hens in this area. Approximately 5000 dog en eggs are consumed at home by the producers and the bal anee of some 100000 dozen reach the Alaskan market. Last year in the Anehorage-Matanuska Val- ley area eggs produced a market value of nearly one quarter Of million dollars.
 The Department of Agrieul- ture will assist in the exhibition with the following participants: Matanuska Valley Farmers Go operating Association (Matanus- ka Maid brand; R. C. Collins fValley Pride1; John Al Cantre of Spenard (Uneeda Farm1; John Mcdonald (Wasilla Creek and
