August 24. 191C PRODUCE INFERTILE EGGS DURING SUMMER I'oultry k. epei I.. . millions of dollar! annually Iron, had inctho.l ol producing unit handling their eggs. So say tlie department of agricul inie one third of th..-. loss is pre ventable because It is due to pari nil hatching of fertile eggs that have been allowed to become warm enough to incubate. Tlie male bird makes the egg fer tile. The fertile egg makes a blood ring. Money now lost from blood rings can be saved by keeping the male bird from the flock after the hatch lug season is over. The rooster does not help bens to lay. He merely fertilizes the eggs. The fertile germ quickly becomes a blood ring in hot weather, which spoils the egg for food and market Summer heat has the same effect on fertile eggs as the hen or the Incubator. After the hatching aeason ia over sell or pen the rooster. The hens not witli a male bird will produce infertile eggs quality eggs that keep I best and market best Infertile eggs will not develop blood rings. The greatest trouble from blood rings in eggs occurs in hot weather. Special care should be given to gath ering and BtaftM the eggs during the' late spriug and simmer mouths. At these times eggs .-mould be gathered at least twice u day, placed in a room or cellar where the temperature does not rise ahme 70 degrees F. and marketed two or Hire- nines a week. These rules BTB adiised by the Missouri college of agriculture for I lie rail' ol eggs: 1. Market only i ugs of sliin.i nl sie 2i ounces or u ore to the doz en Sort out exceedingly lal very small eggs. Amid dirty eggs by keeping clean uuurteis Inn ...m be rcnun ed with u dump cloth, hul eggs should not be washed. 4 Remove malee from the flock as soon as the breeding season Is owr The presence of male birds in uu poultry flocks destroys $a00,000 worth of eggs each month during the summer i'reient this loss by pro duction of Infertile eggs. Fertile eggs do not keep well, It costs money to feed surplus males, and the liens are more productive when no males are present 5. Reject eggs from stolen nests; that's where many oi Ho- rotten eggs come from I. Store eggs in cool, well venti lated pieces. Heat assists In chick development, also increusea shrink age 7. Keep eggs away from odors, such as those from kerosene, cabbage, rotten food, fresh paint, etc. Food also influences flaver: only clean, pure food should be fed. 8. Market the eggs one or twice weekly. F.ggs deteriorate in quality with age. 9. Insist that the dealer purchase fyy on S "loss off" basil not just RS they eonie in At present dealers buy all eggs, good, bad and indifferent, at the same price, and do not recog nize the difference in quality The result is that an average low price Is paid for eggs. Some eggs are worthless while others ere worth much more than Hie uveruge price. Insist that the dealer caudle. Hie egga duriug the slimmer. If he sorts out bud eggs he ran then afford lo pay more for the good. PORTLAND LIVE STOCK MARKET REPORT tattle.
