McMichael, Mrs. A. McDonald and Mrs. C. Ritchie, in charge of the service. Mrs. McMichael opened the meeting with a short prayer, fol- lowed by Hymn 488, "Come, Let Us Sing Of a Wonderful ,i t',ove ” •Mrs. A. McDonald led in prayer. The scripture reading .was taken by Mrs. C. Ritchie from St. John 21:21-37, 43-50. Mrs. McMichael welcomed the guests from Burns' Church, Bethel, Winthrop and Duff's,, McKillop, also bringing in the Easter spirit. The Burns' Auxiliary, Mrs. J. T. White representing it, gave a very interesting reading, `Something Borrowed." Mrs. Earl Mills, of Bethel Church, read short selec- tions, "Pessimism," "A Plan For Living" and "Spring." The offer- ing was received by Mrs: R. Achil- les, and Mrs. W. Cuthill, followed by Hymn 87, "There is a Green Hill Far Away." Mrs. F. Walters introduced the guest speaker, Miss Susannah Rue. Miss Rue told in her discourse that she., was not a missionary, but actually lived in the southwest point of South Afri- ca. The speaker, pointed out that the Union,of South Africa belong- ed to Great Britain and Cape Town, the oldest or mother city. The country was described as be- ing very dry and dusty. They hard- ly know how to..make use of wa- ter, it is so scarce. Their living is made by farming and cattle and sheep raising. In summer the days are hot and hardly ever cool down at night; the winters are sunny and cold. There are three classes of people—white, black and color- ed. The whites are civilized; the blacks are coming, to be civilized. The schools are under a Central Government, which distributes the money to be spent equally among the different races.

Buchanan moved a vote of thanks to Miss Rue for her in- teresting talk on Africa and stat- ed that in these times we can be closer friends, as our communica- tions and our ways of travel are improving. Duff's Church, represented by Mrs. Mae Hillebrecht, read some suitable clippings, "Hallowed • Be Thy Name," "Like the Evergreen," "So Shall the Friendship Be," and "Let the Sun Go Down Upon the Crest." Winthrop favored with a duet by Mrs. R. McFarlane and Mrs. Frank Johnston, "There Is a Place of Quiet Rest, Dear to the Heart of God."

G. De Pape, B.SA, If .Sc., PIP.) ' How. many broken eggs do you. ~gather each ' day? Do*. many of +e' eggs that you market are "braeks"? What is. your average loss on a crate of eggs as a result of 'inferior egg shell quality? You .alone can answer these questions. :.You are no doubt wondering -what happened to these eggs and how you might be able to improve their shells. In order to under- stand the problem a little better, some facts about egg shells • and shell formation may be helpful. The egg shell is composed of three distinct parts: The innermost lay- er is called the mammillary layer or the matrix, and is composed of a. protein network of delicate inter- woven fibres. The next layer is called, oddly enough, the spongy layer. The spongy layer is'the min- eral part of the shell, and is made up largely of calcium carbonate. It also contains phosphorous, mag- nesium and some trace minerals. There is about 50 times as much spongy layer or mineral as there is matrix. The outside layer is called the cuticle and -is very thin. It is about 5/10,000 of an inch thick, and is a transparent layer of pro- tein. The shell of an egg must be thick enough to support the weight of the parent and thin enough "to crack fairly easy when the chick hatches. The thickness of the av- erage chicken egg is about .01 of an inch thick. The average egg shell contains about 98.5 per cent solids, of which 95 per cent is mineral. About 98.5 per cent of this mineral is calcium carbonate. From these figures it is obvious that the hen must have a lot of calcium in her diet. It is estimated that the average' egg shell contains 221 grams of cal- cium; that is about 1/13th of an ounce. If a hen laid 200 eggs in a year she would need about one pound of calcium. This would be equivalent to 21/2 pounds of cal- cium carbonate or oyster shell per hen per year. The calcium con- tent of a typical all -mash laying diet before we add the mineral is about 2 per cent. In order to get enough calcium from this unsup- plemented mash, 100 hens -would haw to eat 111 pounds of feed per day to produce the shell for 50 eggs. The normal consumption for 100 hens is about 25 pounds of an all -mash, no scratch feed. It is obvious that most of the calcium a hen eats must come from the mineral supplements, used. This is why most poultrymen keep oyster shell in front of the hens at all times. There are several factors which play an important part in egg shell quality, and among them are (1) breeding, (2) disease, (3) tempera- ture, and (4) breeding. Breeding is an extremely impor- tant factor in determining egg shell quality. Research workers have demonstrated many times that strains of chickens can be produced that have poor shells on their eggs. Even with the best feeding programs. these hens still produced thin -shelled eggs. Select- ing strains of chickens that lay eggs with good shell quality of- fers one of the greatest. means of improvement. Egg shell -quality is inherited at a relatively low de- gree, consequently special breed- ing methods need to be employed. Some diseases have a marked effect on egg -shell quality. For example, in flocks that were af- flicted with Newcastle disease the hens laid soft shelled eggs and in extreme cases the eggs had no shell. Somewhat similar observa- tions have been made following ex- posure to infectious bronchitis. Poultrymen frequently talk about seasonal variation in egg shell quality. During the summer months shell quality generally goes down, Experiments have shown that with an increase in temperature from 65 to 90 de- grees F., the thickness of the egg shells have been decreased by 15 per cent. As early as 1890, research work- ers pointed out the importance of calcium in the diet of the laying hen. Since that time it has been established that manganese. phos- phorous and vitamin D are . also essential for proper egg shell for- mation. In a practical type diet phosphorous is probably never a problem in egg shell quality. The usual practice is to feed oyster - shell free choice to the hens—this is almost universally recommend- ed. This allows the hens to con- sume the amounts of calcium that are needed, and does not force the non -laying hen or the males to consume amounts of calcium that are not needed. The average ben's body contains about 21 grams of calcium. Most of this is in the bones. This would be enough for 10 eggs if none were wasted and none required for other purposes. Naturally, it is essential that the hen renew this supply at almost daily intervals. A good many lay- ing formulas contain added cal- cium- This is to make allowance for the failure of some hens to find the oyster shell hopper or fail- ure on the part of the caretaker to keep it supplied with oyster - shell. When hens are trained to use the oyster -shell hopper, how- ever, no extra calcium source is needed in the mash. Vitamin D over the years has been the most critical vitamin in maintaining shell quality. People still market cracked eggs in the spring of the year which are a result of a lack of D, the sunshine vitamin. Some poultrymen feed extra high levels of vitamin D during the winter months in the form of feeding oil. Very recent experimental work in- dicates that penicillin in the feed helps to maintain good egg shell quality. Certain seed treating agents may have a drastic effect on egg pro- duction and shell quality. Very low levels of at least.one of these iMac teriais calices the produe "on. of e With se's adt ex- w n .. gs shells ulatpn of pas without even Shell menbraneS'. Many factors. are important in egg shell quality. Breeding is per- haps the most important single factor. Important also are free- dom -from certain diseases, te- peratures, humidity and feeding. MAIN STREET WHISPERINGS (By LEE-HEE), Finalizing the, winter season at the Community Centre as far as hockey and skating are concern- ed, was the grand show put on by the Seaforth Skating Club Sat- urday night, before one of the largest crowds seen in the local arena this season. I'm sure that the officials of the Club and the participants in the carnival were more than pleased with the atten- dance. Every part in the show was well taken as those taking part put every effort into the acts and the fans were liberal with their ap- plause. Mr. Silverthorne and the officials of the Seaforth Skating Club are to be commended for the fine display of various skating acts and the humorous antics of the clowns and other amusing acts throughout the evening. Skaters from the Stratford Skat- ing Club thrilled the audience with their program and are congratu- lated for the grand aid they gave to make this carnival a success. Lindis and Jeffery Johnston, Can- adian dance • champions for 1956, delighted the full house with their matchless performance. § •§ Did you know next week, April 8 -14, inclusive, all Canada, by a special Act of Parliament in April, 1947, will observe what is known as National Wild -Liffe Week?
