As an explanation of the sources from which the bulk of the eggs 

 are derived, there is given below a list of the temporary collecting 

 ]->,lants operated by the various stations. These are utilized merely 

 for the collection and fertilization of eggs for immediate transfer to 

 the hatcheries and are distinct from the auxiliary field stations, which 

 may incubate as well as take the eggs. Upon the more intensive 

 development of these collecting stations, in capacity or number, is 

 based the very marked increase in output of the past two years.
