California Professor Offers Novel and
Practical Moans.
As the result of a series of experi
ments Just completed by Prof. M. E.
Jaffa, the food expert at the University
of California, It Is almost certain that
the egg market will soon undergo an
upheaval and that the high prices now
being paid for eggs will be reduced
to normal proportions.
By regulating the periods of moult
ing among the fowls, Jaffa has brought
about a more uniform production of
eggs throughout the year, Instead of
having a superfluity lu certain months
and a scarcity In others as the condi
tions are at present.
A statement of the experiments and
their outcome was madu last night at
Petaluma before the Poultry Produc
ers' association of that place. The In
vestigations have been carried on at
the University experiment station at
Petaluma and at the homo of Profes
sor Jaffa during the post six months.
The process by which the results
were arrived at Is a simple one. It Is
a well known fact that when hens
moult no eggs are laid. The moulting
Dcrlod occupies three months from
October through December and during
that time the prices of eggs soar skyward.
Professor Jaffa figured out that If
ho could shorten the time of moulting
or carry It over to some other time of
tho year, he could find the remedy for
an euual division of eggs. If the latter
scheme were carried out, tho scientific
producer would have a supply of eggs
between October and January, wnne
the regular ralHer would continue un
der present conditions, thus causing
uniformity in the supply.
The following In brief Is Professor
Jaffa's plan of regulating the moult
lug. A hen laying regularly has her
nitrogenous food supply reduced 6)
per cent. Nitrogen being tho Import
ant factor In the egg. the hen thjs
dieted stops laying. This having been
accomplished the hen having nothing
to do directs her attention to tne next
Imnortant thing In her life namely,
moulting. In the experiments thus
far conductod. It has been found mat
the fowls follow this course invana.
hlv. Tho reduction In the food sup
ply does not impair their vigor out
the quantity of eggs produced during
what is the regular season for moult
ing, is smaller than usuai.
The artificial moulting Is gone
ih.mmh much auicker than the ordl
nary process. The hen thus treated,
at present, only lays about as many
eggs in the long run as the usual nen,
but Professor Jaffa expects to over
come this difficulty shortly. Another
difficulty was encountered In the ex
periments. It was found that a few
of tho hens had been caused to moult
prematurely moulted again during the
...i. ,u,nn. Professor Jaffa as
serts, however, that this state can easl-
lv be overcome as soon as

That the prevailing price of 4 and!
14.60 per ton for large lotB on con
tracts will very soon be Increased Is
the emphatic declaration made by
more than ono Boise man. Those
who keep in close touch with the hay
situation In south Idaho, assert that
while there Is at this time no percep
tible falling off In the visible supply,
yet the woolgrowers are so anxious to
contract largo quantities of winter feed
at this time at the prevailing rates
that there Is every reason to believe
that the nuirket will feel the effects
of a bullish move and Increase to $8
or even 16 CO per ton In contract lots.

drouth in this part of the state, and
the consequent fact that sheep will
necessarily be brought In for the win

year than usual, are the reasons as

the sheepmen to lay In a supply of
hay before the price advances.
