Do not lie anxious to have your eggs hatch early. If they hatch before their time, it is a bad sign. If the embryo remains long in the shell after forming^ and hatches late, it is a good sign. Que sure con- sequence and indication of the presence of fungus is the premature hatching of the egg, before tlie embryo has become well hardened within the shell. Beware of eggs that promise to hatch too early, for they are very likely to be fungussy ; and out of a thousand fun- gussy eggs it is an even chance if one embryo lives a year. The microscopic changes in the eggs from day to day are presented in the accompanying drawings by Professor Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Stone, Livingston, 1836-1912.
