Eggs—To Determine the Sex of—Tested.
In "Navin's Work on Poultry" he gives a test made by A. T. Newell, of Philadelphia, Pa., who says: " Pullet eggs, or those which will produce pullets, are smooth on the ends; while those which produce the roosters have a zig-zag mark or quirl on one end. In selecting 200 for roosters, only 1 produced a pullet; and out of 50 for pullets he got 50 pullets. "
Remarks. —See "Positive Remedy for Hog Cholera" for further knowledge of Navin's reliability. I have no doubt of the facts stated in that, as well as in this case.
