TAKING THE EGGS. Ill 



sort of sifting motion, it will distribute the eggs rather 

 more evenly. When the eggs are all out, take a 

 feather and separate and place them as you wish to 

 have them remain. It is best, on the whole, in placing 

 the eggs through the season, to begin at the bottom of 

 the hatching trough and work up, because by this plan 

 the shells and other waste matter coming from the 

 hatched eggs are not carried down upon the others 

 still hatching.
