NEWBERRY COUNTY EGGS
Modern methods
are now used in
egg production
About 50 years ago it was pret
ty much a universal practice for
the farmer’s wife to have her own
small flock of laying hens. She
fed them table scraps, a little
grain and turned them out to
“pick” in the summer. Her riches
in “egg money” was in direct re
lationship to the time she was
able to find for the small private
enterprise and the market de
mands of her nearest community.
The farmer who engaged in
egg production in a more substan
tial way still had to market eggs
using methods considered uneco
nomical today. Gerald Carson’s
interesting study of American life
in the 19th century, “The Old
Country Store,” relates that
“All eggs . . the white, brown
—large or small— or duck, were
counted and packed small end
down in straw, oats, salt or saw
dust, then wired up, labeled, haul
ed to the depot and put on the
train for city commission houses.”
Egg producers from those ear
lier days 'would be awe-struck
visitors at a modern egg process
ing operation today. As recently
as 30 years ago only 40 per cent
of the nation’s eggs were pro
duced or marketed on what might
be termed an industrial or organ
ized basis. About 35 billion eggs
were produced in 1933. Production
now is approaching 65 billion eggs
annually. Eg production has ex
panded in this century from a
farm woman’s “egg money” op
eration to a more than two-billion
dollar-a year cash return to the
farmer.
Today’s mass production of this
important food is a highly scien
tific business. The successful egg
producer is a combination scien
tist, nutritionist, engineer and
business man. To succeed he knows
that he must buy high quality
chicks, maintain rigid control of
the health and nutrition of his
flock, house them well, gather
eggs frequently and cool them
rapidly and immediately. He must
then follow through to give the
eggs quick, careful handling and
prompt shipment to market, to
maintain top quality. Egg pro
duction today is rapidly becoming
as automated as many heavy in
dustries.
Egg quality
is determined
by candling
Egg quality begins at the
breeding farm. Scientific breeding
of carefully selected birds produ
ces chicks with the greatest poten
tial for developing into good lay
ers. Eggs resulting from these
scientific breeding practices are
sold to hatcherymen who mass
produce baby chicks for poultry-
men engaged in egg production.
'Baby chicks are shipped within 48
hours of hatching to the farms
where they will be fed scientifi
cally balanced rations and will be
provided with good housing and
expert management. Hatchery
production is geared for mass
production of baby chicks so that
young pullets complete their
growth and come into their lay
ing period throughout the year,
providing a constant supply of
fresh eggs for the consumer.
To maintain the top quality of
freshly laid egs, the first step is
gathering of eggs three or four
times a day (the temperature of
the egg is about 104 degrees F).
For rapid cooling, gathered eggs
are placed in a cool room where
they are prepared for packing.
Cases of 15, 24 or 30 dozen eggs
are then transported to egg hand
ling plants, where the eggs are
separated by size and graded for
quality, usually to State or Fed
eral standards. Another factor in
maintaining quality is rapid move
ment from the egg producer to
the retail market.
Strict regulations govern the
producing and market of eggs in
South Carolina. It is always a safe
bet to buy eggs labeled “South
Carolina Producer Eggs” for con
stant vigilance is maintained by
the State Department of Agricul
ture to assure that these eggs
measure up to size and quality as
labeled.
How do you like
your Eggs?
How do you like YOUR eggs?
According to the latest word
from the sociologists, psycholo
gists and others who probe the
mind and intellect:
If you like your eggs hard boil
ed—you are persistent, dynamic,
sincere.
If you like your eggs soft-boil
ed—you are gentle, patient, kind.
If you like your eggs medium
boiled—you are calm, cool, and
collected.
If you like your eggs poached—
you are speedy, peppy, intelligent.
If you like your eggs scrambled
—you are artistic, nervous, pas
sionate.
If you like your eggs turned
over—you are versatile, magnetic,
dominant.
If you like your eggs sunny-side
up—you are happy, healthy, wise.
If you like your eggs shirred—
you are fastidious, romantic, sen
sitive.
If you like omelets—you are
sturdy, reliable, conservative.
If you don’t LIKE eggs—^bet
ter not let the folks in Newberry
county know about it!
