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.
