ELKIN. NORTH CAROLINA POOR EGGS BRING LOWEST OF PRICES Yet Many Poultrymen Help Beat Down Prices With Inferior Eggs • INFERTILE EGGS BEST "You can't get good prices for poor eggs," said C. J. Maupin, ex tension poultry specialist at State College. Yet many poultrymen help beat down prices every spring and summer by flooding toe market with inferior eggs, he continued. Good eggs can be produced in hot weather, he added, if poul trymen feed and manage their flocks as they should. Here are a few things Maupin said that will improve egg quality: Produce only infertile eggs. In fertile eggs keep better and are of a more desirable quality than fertile eggs. Gather the eggs twice a day in a wire basket or other ventilated container. Allow the eggs to cool for 12 hours before packing them in cases. Eggs should be kept in a cellar or other place where the temperature remains between 35 to 60 degrees. Air should circulate freely be tween the eggs. If the air be comes too dry in hot weather, a few pans of water set on the floor will help keep the room moist. Take the eggS to market at least twice a week, if possible. Clean eggs bring more attractive prices than dirty eggs. Don't try to save money by skimping on feed. Poorly fed birds can't produce very many good eggs, but it is a good plan to save feed by culling out low producing birds. Farmers who wish to preserve some of their eggs for home con sumption next fall and winter can do so with sodium silicate, or the water glass method, which is in expensive. Only sound eggs should be saved as defective eggs are likely to spoil. COOL SPRINGS Mr. and Mrs. O. P. Holbrook made a trip to Winston-Salem Sunday, to visit a new grand daughter, of which they had just heard. Little Barbara Jean Bur ton is the infant daughter cff Mr. and Mrs. John Burton.

C. JUNE 12 IS LAST DAY SIGN SHEETS County Offices Cannot Ac cept Work Sheets After That Date CONSERVATION PROGRAM June 12 is the last day on which North Carolina farmers will be allowed to sign work sheets for the 1937 soil conservation pro gram, said E. Y. Floyd, of State College. The county offices have been instructed from Washington not to accept work sheets after that date, Floyd pointed out. However, growers who sign vork sheets in time will be eli gible to earn soil-building and diversion payments by complying with the terms of the program this year. Those who signed work sheets for 1936 are not required to sign again for 1937, Floyd continued, but if they have bought more land or otherwise made changes in their farms, they should noti fy their county agents at once. Work sheets are used in prepar ing information that will help farmers plan their farming oper ations so as to take part in the program and get all the benefits possible. The work sheet is not a con tract, Floyd added, and when a grower signs one he does not place himself under any obligation whatever. But a work sheet must be filed with the county office if a grower is to receive any pay payments. He pointed out that there are two reasons why work sheets must be signed on or before June 12. First, information prepared from work sheets signed after June 12 would be too late to be of use to growers this year. Second, the task of checking up on growers' compliance with the program will start in June in some coun ties. Read Tribune Advertisements!
