"Swat the rooster", says the Mis souri State Poultry Experiment sta tion, and this applies not only to Mis sourians, but ought to be the slogan of all poultrymen as soon as the breed ing season is over. Millions of dol lars' worth of eggs are spoiled every summer because they are fertile, ad vises the Missouri station, and it is the farmers and poultry raisers who Are losing this tremendous -sum each year. Since an average of one egg out of five in the summer is bad, and when eggs are aold on the loss -off system, the loss" from Bad eggs reaches a mighty figure in every poultry state. "After the .hatching season is over, there i no longer any reasonable ex cuse for keeping the males with the laying hens. Borne people imagine that hens lay more eggs if the roosters are allowed to run with them. This is ""' w..u, . a mistake. On the contrary, careful e carload shipment receiv experiments have shown that a flock f1 Some ime g havi"g long 8lnM of hens will actually lay more eggs if "sed P- .aho? cme the males are not allowed with them. bon,t th'onKb 8WpPng, but "Because the deterioration which. local consigfiment from Portland tak nha in n e i. not Milv vU. ible to the naked eye, as it is in fruits, vegetables, etc., people do not realise that it is one of the most perishable of all food products. THs is especially true of the fertile egg. A fertile egg kept in a warm room will become unfit for eating purposes almost as quickly as milk. . v - "It is a mistaken idea that a fertile egg has to be in an .incubator or under a hen in order for the germ to begin to' develop. A very large per cent of Jie eggs "candled out every summer by carlot shippers and the wholesale egg dealers are fertile eggs in which the germ has started to develop and then died when subjected to a lower temperature, thus causing decay to set in.
