cannot ship fertile eggs in the warm
weather that Texjus enjoys and expect
them to reach th^ consumer in a fresh
state. The consumer will not buy
eggs that are not fit to be consumed.
He demands qublhy in every commod-

talk of the possibilities of shipping
eggs to localities': where wr* can com-
mand the highest^proves, wo must pro-
duce “quality” by eliminating the roos-
ter and obtaining fresh infertile eggs.
“11 is impossibly to ship fertile eggs
' to the market,” slates F. W* Kazrneier
pf the Department of Poultry Hus-
bandry at the A. jfc M. colege of Texas,
1 “during the hight temperatures which
prevail in our late springs, summers
and early falls, ami have them reach
the consumer in u sthte fit to eat. In
temperatures of <1$ degrek*s and above,
fertile eggs will spoil rapidly. Our only
solution of the erfg marketing problem
is to separate the male birds from the
i flock as soon as the breeding season is
over.”
