Care Os Eggs Is Advised Farmers Practically all <eggs are of equally high quality when- first laid, according to R. E. Menefee, poultry marketing investigator of Purdue University, Agricultures! Experiment Station; but if they are to retain their high quality and reach the buyer, who purchases eggs on a graded basis, in good condition they must have proper care by the farmer. There is no process in marketing which can improve an egg of poor quality. All that can be done is to preserve the. original freshness. Proper care on “the farm is, therefore, very necessary to the selling of eggs on a graded basis.' First of all it is best to have a flock of standard Variety of poultry in order to produce eggs of uniform size and color. This flock should be reasonably well housed and fed if a high number of eggs per bird is to be obtained. As soon as the hatching season is over, male birds should be moved to separate quarters so that only fertile eggs bf superior keeping qualities will be produced. - Probably the greatest looses to farmers in eggs occurs during the spring season, due to large numbers of dirty eggs coming to market. Nests, clean and sufficient in number, must be provided in order that the largest possible percentage of the eggs may be kept clean. Dirty eggs should never be washed unless they go to. immediate consumption, Washing reduces the keeping qualities and results in losses. Eggs must be gathered frequently, at least once a day. During very hot, dry or" very cold weather it is preferable to gather them twice a day;. to prevent eggs from becoming heated, shrunken or frozen. They should be kept in a cool, moderately damp place in order to prevent oration of water from them. All very small, very large or very dirty eggs can be used at home. They should not be included with th<>se shipped to eastern markets, or when selling eggs on a graded basis to local buyers..

National Swine Show Again at Indianapolis; • V. The National Swine Show Held In Connection With the Indiana State Fair for the Second Year from August Jt to September 5. The Indiana Board of Agriculture has again made it possible to hold the National Swine Show in connection with the Indiana State Fair this year from August 30 to September 5.; S2l,."i‘.'.W will b< paid out for premiums in the swine department. This being the second year the’ National has been held in connection with the Indiana State Fair, it maybe that it will be the last time this will be possible for a few years, inasmuch as the Directors of the National Swine Growers Association want this show to be held in connection with the different state fairs in order that all those interested in swine in the United States may have the privilege of attending and show’ing at the Great National Swine Show. In that case, all Hoosiers should make a great effort to feed out a fewgood hogs to show this year and plan to attend the wonderful show that will be held from August 30 to September 5. Those who attended this show last year stated that it was the greatest exhibit of swine they had ever seen. The superintendent of this department, Mr. 0. L. Reddish, of Waveland, expects an even larger show this year. o—;—,—— The western cattlemen will do well to keep his stock away from larkspur, or "poison weed” until about the first of July. May and June are the months when larkspur poisoning is most frequent, says the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Cattle eats considerable quantities without harm, but it is dangerous to let them graze freely where there is mucK farkspur. The range may be considered safe when the plants have passed the flowering period and are in seed. Fall-born beef calves on the farm should be s weaned after they go on pasture in the spring. Then feed a gradually increasing grain allowance. Feed hay and silage later in the summer. If intended for baby beef, the calves should go into dry lot for finishing at ‘the end of the pasture season. Calves not intended for baby beef need not get grain so early or in such large, quantities. They Can utilise much more roughage such as stalks in the fields, meadows, silage ,and straw with cottonesed meal as a supplement. ,—o Crystal Theater, Ligonier, is showing wonderful talking pictures.

FIGURES SHOW YOU ATE 136.8 POUNDS OF MEAT LAST YEAR

A slight decrease in the total meat production and consumption in the United States last year as compared with 1928 is reported by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture, which has placed totatl production of dressed meat, not including lard, at 16,803,000,000 pounds in 1929 as compared with 16,955,000,000 pounds in 1928. The 1929 total is made up of 6,065,000,000 pounds of beef, compared with 6,082,000,000 founds of veal against 814,000,000 pounds in 1928; 699 million pounds of lamb and mutton against 671 million pounds I 9,223,000,000 pounds of pork against 1 9,387,000,000 pounds. Os the total 1929 production, 66.56 per cent came under Federal inspection. The remainder was composed of the farm kill and the commercial slaughter not government inspec red. Some of the latter is inspected by State and local authorities, but, the quantity so inspected is nut known. Goat meat, the production of which aggregated about 1,000,000 pounds in each year, is not included in the total. • Per capita consumption of meats, excluding lard, is placed at 136.8 pounds compared with 138 pounds in 1928, and 149.7 pounds in 1924 which was the record year since 1908. The smallest per capita consumption, in the last 30 years, 120.1 pounds was in 1917. The amount of lard used per capita last year was 14.3 pounds against 14.7 pounds in 1928. In the last thirty years lard consumption per capita has ranged from 10 pounds in 1905 to 15.4 lbs. in 1924. Pork is shown to be the most popular meat in the American diet, the per capita, consumption last year being 72.8 pounds as against 73.9 lbs. in 1828, and a high of 74.7 pounds in 1923 and 1924. The smallest consumption per capita was 49,3 pounds in 1917. _ ’ The trend in per capita consumption of beef has been downward since 1926 ,the bureau says, when 63.6 pounds per person was consumed. Last year consumption was 51.4 pounds per capita as against 51.7 pounds in 1928. The reduced per capita supply of beef, the result of decreased cattle slaughter, it is pointed out, accounts for the higher level of beef prices that has prevailed in the last two years as compared with earlier periods. Per capita consumption of veal in 1929 amounted to slightly less than 6.8 pounds as compared with slightly more than that figure in 1928. Consumption of veal has been falling off in recent years on account of reduced calf slaughter. In 1925 per capita consumption was 8.7 lbs. |

THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

Percapita consumption of lamb and mutton has. been increasing since 1922, and was 5.8 pounds in 1929 as against 5.6 pounds in 1928.- Consumption in 1922 was 5 pounds. Increased consumption is attributed to the increase in production. Pork showedthe greatest decrease j in both p-toduction and consumption last year, the decrease being attributed to a reduction in slaughter supplies. Production of beef decreased slightly, but total consumption increased as a result of larger imports. [Total veal production was slightly I larger last year but the increase was offset by a decrease in imports; consequently there was only a slight change in total veal consumption. Lamb and mutton showed the greatest relative increase in both production, due to increased slaughter and supplies. Most of the changes ,in meat production and consumption in the U. S. are attributed by the bureau to increases and decreases in the number of animals going to "slaughter. Cattle slaughter has been decreasing since 1926, and in 1929 the slaughter was 18 per cent less than the 1926 total, and the smallest since 1916. Calf slaughter has been declinig since 1925, the. peak year, and last year was the smallest since 1921. The trend of sheep and lamb slaughter has been upward since 1922 and last year the total was almost 28 per cent larger than in 1922. Hog slaughter in 1929 was slightly smaller than in 1928 but with that exception it was largest since 1924. Total exports and imports of all meats, excluding lard, last year were larger than in either 1928 or 1927. Imports were largest since 1914. Only about one per cent of the total meat consumed in this country is imported, however, and most of the imports consist of canned and cured beef. Reduced to a f.resh meat basis, imports of beef are about six times as great as exports but are less than 4 per cent of the total domestic beef consumption. Pork and lard are the most important items in our meat product exports, Slightly more than 4 per cent of the pork production in 1929 was exported whereas one-third of the lard produced was moved out of I the country. Lard exports in 1929 were 8 per-cent larger than in 1928 j and were the largest since 1924. Exports of pork increased 13 per cent over 1928 but were less than in any recent year before 1927. Copies of the complete report giving consumption figures since 1900 may be obtained upon application to -'the Bureau of Agricultuarl Economj ics, U. S. Department of Agriculture.
