If the breaking room and freezer arc not adjoin- ing, trucks are ordinarily used for moving the cans of liquid egg. If the plant is large enough to justify the expense of installing the chain conveyor, it may be modified by using trays instead of hooks for carrying both the pails of shell eggs and cans of liquid egg from one floor to the next. TRANSFER OP EQUIPMENT POR WASHING. A sliding insulated window (figs. 1 and 3) has been found almost indispensable for transferring small equipment'between the breaking and sterilizing rooms. The detail plans for its construction are. Fig. -Section of wall of breaking room showing transfer window, can door, roll of paper towels, and sink with pedal valve attachment. given in figure 4. The weight boxes should be built on the steriliz- ing room side of the wall. On the breaking room side of the window shelves may be erected to hold a supply of small equipment, such as cups, knives, and breaking trays for immediate use by the breakers. Clean utensils are kept on the two upper shelves, and soiled utensils only on the bottom shelf. The equal division of the middle shelf, so that one-half may be removed, makes it possible to deliver larger apparatus, such as cans and pails, to the sterilizing room and vice versa. With such a window, the breakers may secure individual pieces of equipment as needed, and the operator in the washroom may.
