10'f State Research
Some tips on how to have better
eggs and how to store them will
be passed along to the home-
maker, handler and producer as
result of a reseas'ch project under-
way in this state, according to
Iren Piedalue, associate county
extension agent.
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.

Regional plans to help small
woodlot owners in Washington will
be complete within a few days, it
has been reported by Knut Lun-
hum, Pullman, director of the
More Trees for Washington pro-
gram.
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.

USE LEAD ARSENATE
FOR CATERPILLARS
Shelton and Mason county or-
chardists should now declare war
on caterpillars which are appear-
ing in alarming numbers, Andrew
Kruiswyk, Jr., cxtension agcnt,
says.
A little time, elbow grease and
a spray of two pounds of lead ar-
senate in 100 gallons of water will
destroy the caterpillars.
Don't use DDT as. a spray "as it
won't kill the caterpillars but will
destroy the fly that kills the cat'-
pillars, grutswyk said.

With a slogan, "A poppy on
every coat, remembrance in every
heart," the American Legion Aux-
iliary is preparing its Poppy-Day
drive for Friday and Saturday,
Mrs. Maurice Needham, chairman,
has announced.
"I hope that everyone will un-
derstand the public-spirted set'v-
ice being given our vohmteers for
Poppy Days," Mrs. Needham said.
"Theia' only reward will be to see
many poppies being worn."
The Memorial Poppy of the Le-
gmn attxiliary is a crepe paper
replica of the wild poppies which
grew in the battlefields in France
and Belgium during both world
,VaS'S.
All the little red flowers have
been made by disabled veterans,
providing them with interesting
and beneficial work and with
funds with which to purchase
necessities and confforts not pro-
vided in hospitals.
Part of the money collected is
used by the local post to finance
child welfare and rehabilitation
activities.
