IMPROPER METHODS “ COST SAYS PARRISH A total of $45,000,000 a year is lost by the American poultry industry as a result of improper methods and handling eggs, according to data com plied by C.*F. Parrish extension j poultryman at State College. This staggering loss can be greatly • reduced by removing male birds from j the flocks when not needed for breed- j ing purposes, gathering the eggs more , often, caring for them properly, and i observing other methods of good flock j management. 1 Fertile eggs will start hatching ( when exposed to sufficient heat for a short time, but infertile eggs may be left in a temperature of 193 degrees . Fahrenheit for 72 hours and still be ^ good for food. Healthv, vigorous males removed > from the'flock should be penned sep-. “ acutely and saved for breeding pur poses the next season. The other, male- should be disposed of since j they will cat more food than they are ; worth if kept over the non-breeding j season. . . , ! In hot weather, eggs should be gathered at least twice a day in wire baskets and immediately removed to a cool cellar or room where the tem perature is degrees or less and where there is a relatively high hu midity. The eggs should then be; spread on a table or wire screen so , as to cool thoroughly before being packaged ! The u-e of good nesting material ; and proper sanitation around the hen ; houses will decrease the number ot, dirty eggs produced. Many good eggs ( are sold at low prices simply because thev d.- not look fresh and clean. 1 At i.ast 20 nests 12 by 12 by lb inches should be provided for each 100 lacing hem. i ho nesting mater-j i a I sc Mild be changed frequently. , ARRIVALS IS BREVARD Rocc'.i arrivals at Lockerwin with Mr. ar i Mrs. O.
