By FRANK C. HARE,
Poultry Husbandman, Clemson College,
S. C.
It is doubtful if there is a more inter
esting story in any branch of physiology
than the development of an egg.
The yolk of the egg is made first. At
tached to the body cavity of the hen
near the left kidney are organs called
the ovaries which develop yolks as de
sired. In birds the left ovary alone
functions, the right degenerating at an
early age.
The yolk first appears as a minute
cell on the surface of the ovary. By ex
amining this organ with a microscope
as many as thirteen thousand yolk cells
have been seen, so there is no possi
bility of the ovary running short of
cells during the life of the hen. The
growth of each yolk from the minute
ceil to normal size is constant during
the laying period. Moreover, as there
are yolks in all stages of development
to maintain the daily production of eggs,
the ovary at this time presents some
what the appearance of a bunch of
grapes. Each y< Ik is attached to the
ovary by a thin sac, which is ruptured
when the yolk attains its normal size.
As the yolk bursts its sac and es
capes from the ovary, it Is swallowed
in the wide, funnel-shaped mouth of the
oviduct, whose function is to secrete
sufficient albumen to form the egg, and
to inclose it with two membranes or
skins.
Real Egg Size of Pea.
The true egg of the- hen is a small,
light-colored disc, no larger than a
pea, which floats on the upper surface
of the yolk. Before the germ can grow
into a chick during the precess or in
cubation, it must be fertilized by a
sperm cell.
Since the yolk Is mainly fat or oil
and the albumen principally water, it
would be natural for the oily yolk to
float at the top of the watery albumen.
But this position of the yolk would
cause the germ to Ue against the side
of the egg. where it would be impossible
for the egg to hatch. Therefore, nature
has suspended the yolk by two twisted
cords inside a cushion of dense albu
men at the center of the egg.
The yolk or egg revolves on its axis
as It is slowly forced through the ovi
duct by the peculiar wormlike contrac
tions of that organ. Thayer upon layer
of albumen is constantly added, at first
quite dense, then thinner, and finally
when the process is about completed
almost watery in its composition. The
secretion of albumen is estimated to oc
cupy about three hours.
Formation of Shell Membranes.
When about two-thirds the length of
the oviduct Is traversed and the secre
tion of albumen is almost over, the egg
reaches a sharp bend in the oviduct
called the isthmus. Here the liquids
making up the egg are encased in two
skins known as shell membranes. Ihe
outer skin lies close against the inside
of the shell, while the inner skin clings
to the albumen. The air cell lies be-

Developement of Egg
tween the two skins. The secretion of
the shell membranes in the isthmus re
quires about three hours.
The “soft-shelled" egg now passes out
of the oviduct into the uterus. Its func
tion is to secrete three layers of liquid
lime which harden and form the shell or
the egg. x
The egg remains In the uterus from
twelve to twenty-four hours. The great
er part of this time is required to set
and harden the shell. The hen then
goes on the nest.
The collection of yolks attached to the
ovary decrease in size, so that within
a short time the profitable layer is rel
egated to the class of nonlayers.
Cost of Egg Production.
There is no waste in an egg except
the shell. It is higher in digestibility
than any other food except milk, ami
the average weight of one dozen eggs
(1% pounds) contains more digestible
nutrients than a similar weight of any
other food, with the exception of milk,
as stated. In spite of this, quite a num
ber of persons are complaining about the
high cost of eggs and are unjustly crit
icising farmers and professional poul
trymen for charging the present prices.
Dr. B. F. Kaupp, of the North Caro
lina Experiment Station, has been
studying this question from the stand
point of the producer, and finds that
estimates on the cost of feed purchased
at Raleigh during the month of Octo
ber would make an average cost of
chicken feed per pound 4 cents. The
average sized hen will consume 75
pounds of feed in a year, which will
make the cost for feed alone for this
hen amount to $3. Additional overhead
expenses, exclusive of feeding, will cost
60 cents, making the total for the aver
age hen during the year amount to
$3.60. Now th<> average farm hen will
lay abount seven dozen (84) eggs per
year. This makes a cost of 51 cents
per dozen to produce them.
By careful selection in breeding, com
mercial men have been able to breed
hens which will produce a greater num
ber of eggs than this, and actual data
from several flocks which have just
completed their year's record shows that
the average for each hen in the flock
was 127.6 eggs. At this rate, the cost
of production per dozen was 36 cents.
It has been found by careful investi
gation that on a four-horse farm fifty
birds can be kept for one-half of this
cost. This is possible because Of the
fact that they will forage for one-half
of (heir fe«ui during the twelve months;
and since they are running on range,
there is less labor required for han
dling ^hem, and the overhead expenses
are also cut into half, making the total
cost of upkeep per hen each year amount
to SI.BO. However, if more than fifty
hens are kept, it is then a matter of
buying all of the feed, betause hardly
more than this number, can be sus
tained by the wastage around the barn
and farm lot.
In marketing eggs, it wjll cost ap
proximately 3 cents per ddzen for ex
press ami commission; the groceryman’s
profit is from 5 cents to 8 cents per
dozen, because of the fact that he runs
credit business, loses payments on sonic
accounts, must pay clerk hire, store
rent and interest on his investment,
and, therefore, while the average hen is
only producing seven dozen eggs per
year the prevailing prices should amount
to from 59 cents to 62 cents per dozen.
Un the other hand, however, where
eggs are obtained from commercial
yards, where the hen is bre/1 to lay, but
where all the feed is purchased, the cost
should be from 44 cents to 47 cents per
dozen. At the present time eggs are
being retailed in Raleigh at 46 cents
per dozen. When they are delivered the
same day as laid they should bring from
5 cents to 10 cents above the regular
price.
Divorces Mate Who
Disliked Bathtub
DENVER. Nov. .—Mrs. Thelma
Engblom, wife of Eric Engblom, a mem
ber of the Salvation Army, who com
plained that her husband would not take
his baths regularly unless she supervised
the task and did most of the scrubbing,
the other day in the District Court was
awarded a divorce.
Mrs. Engblom also testified during the
hearing of the case that her husband
neglected his shaving, after he had dis
covered, by letting her practice on the
back of his neck, that his wife was
handy with a razor.
Engblom 3pp<>sed his wife's suit. He
offered in court to forgive«her for suing
him and to take her back, but Mrs.
Engblom refused. The husband gave no
tice that he would apply for a new
trial.

HARDWICK SURE
HE'LL MN MCE
Senator, Passing Through At
lanta, Tells How Voters Are
Backing Him.
United States Senator Thomas W.
Hardwick is in Atlanta, on his way
to I^awrenceville, where he delivers
an address Thursday.
Senator Hardwick spoke in Moul
trie, Colquitt County, Tuesday, and
says he had “the most entuhsiastic
reception” hs ever received there,
notwithstanding the fact that he has
made four other speeches in Colquitt
County in past.
"There were more than a thousand
present,” said Senator Hardwick
Monday, 'and I never was more cor
dially received. My audience gave
me a fine hearing and expressed great
approval and enthusiasm over what
I had to say, time and again. After
the speaking, hundreds camo to me
and assured me of their support. I
have no doubt whatever that I shall
be re-elected Senator. I have not the
slightest fear of that. When people
understand clearly my position, and
they are having an opportunity now,
they are better able to judge the jus
tice and merits of my cause. Abuse
and slanded will not defeat me.”
Senator Hardwick will deliver three
or four more addresses In Georgia be
fore Congress reassembles.
Prime Cotton Seed
Sells for $Bl a Ton
AMERICUS- Nov. 7,—Prime cotton
seed for crushing purposes sold In Amer
icus yesterday for $Bl a ton, the high
est price ever recorded here. The de
mand so? seed Is keen, even at this un
precedented prlc, but the supply in
the hands of farmers has been practi
cally exhausted. When $75 a ton was
weeks , a K° Sumter farm
ers sold heavily, considering (hl.s a good
mills here will crush a con
sidecable quantity of peanuts thia year
and there is a steady demaiwl for these
at good prices.
To the Natl<*.. n i American Woman
.association, with its eyes
fixed on the Federal suffrage amend
ment, nothing in the world Could
mean so much right now as victory
and votes fnr the women of New
York,” was the comment of Mrs. Hel
en H. Gardener, of the Congressional
Committee of the National Associa
tion, today.
The Ohio defeat does not discour
age us. The referendum in that State
was held on petition of the ‘antis’ to
reject the presidential and municipal
suffrage bill passed by the Ohio leg
islature hist winter. Eight hundred
and twenty-.* \< n petitions were cir
culated by saloon keepers, bar tend
ers and brewery workers, and in the
four counties, where suffragists were
allowed a hearing by the courts, they
invalidated 8,000 signatures of 9,000.
The liquor men won this election and
the women lost, but the women will
appeal from Ohio drunk to Congress
sober. We have no doubt which way
the decision will lie.”
With New York won. the number
of equal suffrage States is twelve and
eight other States have been granted
partial suffrage.

You Can Help Red
Cross By Carrying
Purchases Home
j N the rush and crush of Christ
? mas shopping, Atlanta wom
en are to have a strong incen
j tive to help prevent the congestion
that usually makes life a burden
for merchants, salesgirls and cus-
j tomers as well at that time.
' For every package that is taken
home by the purchaser, instead of
being delivered by the store from
which it was purchased, the Red
Cross is to receive a small bonus.
Stamps are being sold under aus
pices of the Atlanta Chapter of the
Red Cross to a number of White
hall street stores, one of which will
be placed on each package taken
home by the purchaser. The stamps
> will not be placed on delivered '
packages.
The stamp bears the legend:
. “Take It Home With You.” It is
expected to impress Atlanta wom- j
en with the fact that it is both
patriotic and economical at this j
time to help reduce the costs
losses and delays incident to many
deliveries at Christmas time.

25,000 food handlers who come under
the license system inaugurated under

reminded of the regulation which stip
ulates that: "No licensee shall know
ingly buy any food commodities from
or sell any such commodities to, or
handle any such commodities for any
person required to have a license who
has not secured such license and com

ers in all parts of the country, accom
panied by rules and regulations. The
license division is also sending out
inventory forms to all licensed deal
ers in foodstuffs. All licensees will
be required to make full reports to
