THIS PROJECT, an extensive study of egg quality, is being made by Washington State Col- lege experiment stations to learn where quality is lost along the road from the hen to the skillet. Miss Piedalue says WSC's poul- trymen expect to learn some ans- wers as to present habits of con- sumers in keeping and handling eggs, how often they buy them, what color yolk they prefer, and what is the per capita use of eggs. l They'll also learn how the farmer, I the wholesaler and the retailer t care for the eggs, something about ] the value of the brand name of eggs, and many other points. I Currently being carried out in[ Spokane county the project later[ will be shifted to other centers J of population in the state, Miss Piedalue is informed by the two research workcrs in charge, Dr. W. J. Stadelman and Leo S. Jen- sen. They report excellent cooper- ation from farmers, handlers and consumers in the area. QUETIONNAIRE circulated among producers, grocers and housewives play a part. Sampl- ing of eggs and quality tests also figure in the project. In the process some eggs are marked and tested at the egg farm; then they are picked up at the grocery and tested agaln to learn what quality, if any, has been lost. In the Spokane sample area it appears that about 95 per cent of the housewives keep the eggs in a refrigerator, a major factor in keeping quality at home. The questionnaires also indicate that approximately 378 eggs per cap- ita are consumed in Spokane coun- ty, a figure close to the national average.

He said cooperating western Washington foresters, who repre- sent the state's fir region, met a few days ago in Olympia with Dean Gordon D. Marckworth of the Urfiversity of Washington's College of Forestry. They ex- changed notes on progress of the More Trees drive, which is aimed at making privately owned wood- lands more productive. They map- ped a plan of coordinat.ed action. Marckworth is chairman of the State Forestry conference, the sponsor of the More Trees pro- gram. Lunnum said a similar meeting of state, private and federal for- esters from the eastern Washing- ton pine region will be held soon. Follow-up meetings in the fall will' give a check on progress of the drive, which opened late last month. Lunnum told the foresters that many requests for the booklet call- ed "Cash Crops from Washing- ton Woodlands" are arriving at his office. The booklet was mailed at the start of the campaign by county forestry committees organ- ized in each participating county to all private woodland owneji i whose names and addresses were available. The booklet was written to show how the state's 5,500,000 acres of privately owned wood- land could yield a continuous in- come for the owners.
