FHOW TO PRODUCE* GOOD EGGS FOR SUMM[R MARKE Proper Handling of Product Increase Flock's Profits-Large Number Eggs Are Lost Annuall Throug] Bad Methods of Handling an Marketing Of the 1,957,000,00 dozen of egg produced annually in the Unite States; it is estimated that nearly per cent of those marketed are a tote loss. This is due largely to imprope handling between the farm and th market. Many farmers look upol eggs as a by-product, and the return as so much clear gain. The hens for age for a living; eggs are gathere whenever convenient and kept almos anywhere. With such carelessnes and a combination of mongrel stoci dirty nests, stolen nests of brood hens, unconfined males, late-maturin pullets and other undesirable cond tions, is it any wonder that the prc duct includes a high percentage c small, cracked, dirty, stale, heated and even rotten eg-gs? Care Should be Given iMarket Eggs Occasionally the accumulations c all these kinds of eggs are taken t the country merchants and exchange for merchandise. The merchant u, ually buys these eggs, "case count, paying the same price for all kind and sizes, provided the shells are ur broken. Small production results i small or infrequent shipments. If possible, only -nonfertile egg should be produced for market; fertil eggs deteriorate rapidly and are ti cause of much loss. A broody he on the nest, or exposure to a temperf ture from other sourdes sufficient t start incubation, cases all such egg to be rejected when they are candled, Eggs should be cared for carefull: Provided plenty of nests and kee them filled with clean nesting matei ial; gather the eggs at least once (lay (twice would be better), an store them in a well-ventilated place which must be kept as cool as po sible. It is preferable not to was eggs which are to be marketed, a washing removes the natural niucilv ginous coating of the egg. and open the pores of the shell, so that washe eggs do not look or keep as well i eggs not wasp ed. However, dirt eggs should either.be used at home : cleaned before marketing. In spite of the greatest care, it soir times happens, under ordinary fari conditions, that an occasional bad eg appears among those sent to marke All eggs from stolen nests or any n( picked up daily from the nests shoul be candled if they are to be niarkete( Candling is the process of testing egg by passing light through them so a to reveal the condition of the content: A simple candling outfit may be mad of an ordinary pasteboard or sma wooden box, sufficiently large, afte the ends have been removed, to b placed over an electric light or a sma hand lamp. A hole should be cut i the box on a level with the flamec the lamp. Several holes, to suppl air to the lamp, should be cut in thi edlges on which the box re'sts. Th'l box should be large enough to prover danger of catching fire. Candling is (done in the (lark.
