PRODUCE SUMMER EQQS " 1 OF SUPERIOR QUALITY Cletnson, June 2ft?Many people hlnk that because eggs are enclosed In shells they are all the same with ( no difference In their quality, says' P. [J, Gooding, extenslou poultryman. suggesting some' things tbat flock owners can do to produce more desirable eggs for consumption. #81nce the kind of feed seems to have little to do with the quality of the egg produced, provided a balanced ratiou Is being fed. he concludes that the quality of egg produced Is left almost entirely up to the flock owner or manager. Almost any summer day in South Carolina Is warm enough to cause fertile eggs to start Incubating, which makes blood rings In the eggs and renders them unfit for consumption. The best and easiest way to prevent this Is by separating the male birds from the laying flock and producing Infertile eggs. Infertile eggs, If put on the market In a reasonably short time, will reach the consumer In fairly good condition. A bad practice among many farmera Is allowing the eggs to stay In the nost all duy and even Beveral days bofore romovlng them. In.moat cases nests are located where the sun shines directly or almost directly on them, making the nests about the hottest place In the laying house. To avoid this condition, the eggs should be gathered at least twice and perferably three times dally during the summer. They should be stored In a cellar or the coolest spot on the farm until sold, which should be at least twice a week In hot weather. If one does not have a cellar, a good practice Is to spread the eggs out on a wire platform about two inches above tho floor, which will enable them to cool much more quickly than If kept In baskets or egg crates. The wire platform will allow ample ventilation around all the eggs and being near the floor will keep them cooler than If they are kept In a container on a box or table. Another means of getting good eggs to the consumer Is to keep the nests clean so that the eggs will not get dirty, which may cause them to absorb objectionable odors and necessitate washing them. There are 15.925,950 Ttoman Catholics in the British Empire and 29,273. 022 In American possessions?a total of more than 45 million In English speaking countries.
