ROOSTERLESS EGGS KEEP
BEST IN SUMMER
So far as food quality is con
cerned there is no difference
between a fertile egg and an
infertile egg. There is, how
ever, a considerable difference
in the length of time the eggs
will remain fresh and the
difference is in favor of the in
fertile egg. When exposed
to summer heat, either on the
farm or in transit to market,
fertile eggs soon develop blobd
rings and become stale if they
do not completely spoil. This
lowers the value of the eggs
for eating purposes and in the
aggregate the loss to poultry
keepers runs into hundreds of
thousands of dollars each
year.
Infertile eggs never develop
blood rings because they lack
the live germ. Therefore,
such eggs will keep fresh much
longer than fertile eggs. If
customers knew the superior
ity of infertile eggs as com
pared with those that are fer
tile, there would be little de
mand for fertile eggs and then
the roosters would have to go.
Every poultry keeper will ben
efit himself as well as his cus
tomers by eliminating the
roosters now. A week after
they are confined in separate
pens or sold, the quality of the
eggs will be much improved.

Some Facts About
THE UNIVERSAL CAR
Here are authentic figures from the Ford factory at Detroit.
They show you just how many Ford cars and trucks have been
built each month since January 1, 1921 and how many have been
sold to retail customers in the United States.
Delivered to
Produced Retail Customers
JANUARY 29,883 57,208
FEBRUARY 35,305 . 63,303
MARCH 61,886 87,221
Total Production 127,074 Total Retail Sales 207,732
showing that actual sales for the first three months of_ 1921 ex
ceeded production by 80,658 Ford cars and trucks.
April requisitions already specify 107,719 additional cars and
trucks and the estimated April output of the factory and assembly
plants combined calls for only 90,000. *
These facts clearly show that the demand for Ford products
is growing much faster than manufacturing facilities to produce
and were it not for the dealers* limited stocks, which are now be
ing rapidly depleted, many more customers would have been com
pelled to wait for their cars. It will only be a matter of weeks,
therefore, until a big surplus of orders will prevent anything like
prompt deliveries.
If you would be sure of having your Ford car or truck when
you want it, you should place your order now. Don t delay.
