More Good Hatching
Eggs Are Required
One of the largest hatchery
men from Maryland visited North!
Carolina a few days ago in aj
search for several hundred thou ',
sand good hatching eggs and he"
went home empty handed.
Prof. Roy Dearstyne, head of
the poultry department at State |
College, says there is a shortage
of good hatching eggs and that|,
this situation shBuld be correct-!
etl. The hatcheryman was looking!
for eggs from flocks with high
"broiler quality." L
"There are many opportunities!
in this specialized business of pro-'
ducing good hatching eggs,"
Dearstyne explains. "These eggs]
are not the result of merely mat-j
ing chickens and collecting eggs.
"The breeding program in the
hatchery supply flock must be
carefully controlled. The birds
must be comfortably housed, well
fed, and well managed. The
hatching eggs require very care
ful attention from the time they
are laid until they reach the
hatcheryman. In some section
they are brought on the record of
good hatchability."
The hatcheryman from Mary
land was planning to open a unit
in an adjoining state and he came
to North Carolina for his hatch
ing eggs because of the good re
cord of many flocks throughout!
the State. Prof. Dearstyne and!
the extension specialists were un-!
able to locate an adequate supply
of eggs for him.

Food Value Package: Potatoes
pack good food values wider
their jackets. They are a good
source of vitamin C. contain
some B vitamins, iron and other
important minerals, and starch.
Types to Buy: Best potatoes avei
firm and clean, have shallow1
eyes, are fre? from cuts, decay,
or green spots. There are pre
ferences, too. in line with the re
cipe fallowed. Mealy, flaky varie
ties are good for baking and
mashing. Waxy varieties that hold
shape are best for salads and for
creaming.
If selling potatoes, package
those of uniform size and grade.
Send to market only high quality
potatoes with "eye appeal."
Cooking Tips: The best way to
save food values is to cook pota
toes in their jackets. And of the
two ways of cooking them in their
jackets, boiling conserves more
vitamins than baking. If the pota
toes are to be served parslied.
mashed, creamed, hash-browned,
or in salad, start them on their
way boiled in their jackct?. When
raw potatoes are called for as in
a scallop or soup, keep the peel
ing thin. Peel potatoes just be
fore cooking. If allowed to soak,
the potatoes lose some of their
nutritinal value. If they must be
peeled ahead of time, put them in
salted water. Serve them quick
[cooked and steaming hot. The
longer they stand exposed to the
