EXPLAINS EGG I BLOOD SPOTS Dearstyne Reccmmencis Candling At Peak Of Season Blood spots in eggs may bo expected at any time during the laying year, but eggs showing this condition are injre preva lent during the season of peak production than at any other time, says Prof. Roy Dearstyne of State college. ? Such spots are the results of a rupture of a small vessel in the ovary or in the oviduct,'' he points out. "If it' is on the yolk, it indicates a hemorrhage in the sac enclosing the yolk at the time the yolk became ripe and was released. "This was probably brought about because the rupture did not occur along the stigma which contains no blood vessels, but at another section of the sac containing blood vessels. If the clot is in the white of the egg, it is the result of a rup ture of a blood vessel in the oviduct which secretes the al bumin of the egg." Eggs with blood spots are not unhealthy for human consump tion. nor do they indicate a diseased condition of the laying bird. They are. however, very objectionable to the purchaser of the egg. and may react against consumer demand for eggs. Because of this, it is very desirable that producers candle market eggs, especially during the season of high production. Candlers are beginning to ap pear on the market again and are reasonably cheap. The op State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By KI TH CURRENT N. C. State College It's the way a girl carries her self that counts most, fashion experts say. So if you want to look nifty in your clothes, give a little thought to the matter of carrying yourself well. To begin at the bottom, say the experts, look at your feet. Do your toes point straight ahead? You should walk in a straight line and the weight of your body should fall through the ankle. If the bulge in front is due to bad posture, learn to carry the body properly and this will gradually tone up the ab dominal muscles. If the bulge is from eating too much, you know what to do. Your chest should be center ed over your hips. Shoulders will be right, if the rest of the j body is in a reasonably plumb line. In the poised body, the head is centered over the chest, j the chest over the hips, and ' the weight falls through the j ankle joints. Spring cleaning isn't over un til you have emptied all draw ers and closets and cleaned them thoroughly; hung clothes i in the fresh air and bright sun shine and brushed them well, ' looking along seams and under collars for signs of moths. | eration of candling is not dif ficult and, with some practice, the producer can readily detect blood spots or other internal abnormalities, Dearstyne says. As the industry develops, the demand that candling be done on market eggs will increase, and eventually producers will have to come to this as a rou tine part of their work.

Shell color runs in fam ilies, according to Prof. Roy Dearstyne, head of the poultry department at State college. He suggests that this trbuble can be removed by breeding.

Cooperative lamb sales and wool pools are now being held at various points in North Car olina, according to Hazel "Dirt and grease, moths in crease."
