USE EXISTING FACILITIES
Bull estimated the annual
cost of maintaining a patholo
gist, secretarial help and nec
essary supplies and materials
at a diagnostic laboratory
might be in the neighborhood
of $40,000 —this would be with
out rent or a building, he add
ed.
Miller confirmed the Secre
tary’s estimate and felt that if
a building were to be added
the total cost would be closer
to $lOO,OOO
Miller stated he was not con
vinced the area needed anoth
er laboratory, and felt there
might be better ways for the
state to use any money that
might be available.
As an alternative. Miller sug
gested better staffing of the
existing New Bolton Center fa
cilities, and greater effort en
couraging college students to
major in poultry science at
Penn State University.
In summarizing the proced
ures that could be followed to
solve the problem, Secretary
Bull listed: 1) build a com-

Egg-Brite removes dned-on stains, gets eggs really
clean to bring top prices. And, eggs washed in Egg-Brite
retain their natural shell finish . . . reduce bacterial
infection. Egg-Brite is available in three specially
formulated detergents for use in all types of egg
washers: SG-5, a nonfoaming, cleaner-sanitizer to be
used in air-action machines. SG-6, a specially
formulated detergent to be used when extreme foaming
conditions are encountered or for use in large
capacity washers. SG-7, a chlorinated heavy duty,
low-sudsing egg washing compound recommended for
use in all types of egg washers.

plete new laboratory; 2) find
existing facilities in which the
state would supply only the
technical help; or, 3) establish
a pick-up service at a central
location in the county from
which birds could be collected
regularly and taken by the
state to Summerdale or New
Bolton.
In pursuing the idea of us
ing available facilities, Bull
suggested looking into the pos
sibilities of working out a sat
isfactory arrangement withMil
lersville State College or with
one of the three proposed vo
cational technical high schools
scheduled for Lancaster Coun
ty. He said he would have Dr.
Seitz consult the authorities at
Millersville as a starting point.
