Robert J. Price, a veterinarian with USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, said Norden Laboratories, a subsidiary of Smith Kline Corporation, also agreed to setback requirement should be increased, The proposed procedure for considering any rezonmg in the agricultural districts would take into account the primary interest of Lan caster County m preserving farmland. If a rezoning request were received, it would be proposed that the Lancaster County Agricultural Preservation Board would be given first chance to purchase the farmland preservation rights for the property. This proposed referral of any rezonmg requests in volving farmland in agricultural districts to the county board would be made before any consideration is given to the rezonmg petition at the township level. submit all its Rhinomune advertising in advance to APHIS officials for approval over the next six months. Price said the agreement was reached in a consent decision approved by USDA administrative Law Judge William J. Weber, which settled a complaint brought by APHIS against Norden’s claim. APHIS officials contended the company’s ads were claiming Rhinomune to be effective in uses not currently approved under its USDA veterinary biologies license. “Rhinomune has been approved by USDA as a modified live virus vaccine Eggs a HARRISBURG - A powerhouse of nutrients that are economical and versatile as well can be found inside what has been coined “The Incredible Edible Egg,” according to Vicky Wass, Egg Promotion Specialist with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. “Eggs are man’s most nutritious, complete food containing rich, high quality protein,” says Wass. “Eggs are the only complete package of nutrients and minerals designed by mother nature to develop an embryo to maturity. In fact, eggs are so nearly perfect that scientists use eggs as a standard of reference to measure the value and quality of proteins m other foods.” All the essential ammo acids (building blocks of protein that can not be manufactured by the body) are present in such generous quantities that egg protein is used to supplement and extend other foods, as well. Two eggs supply an average of 20-30 percent of the minimum daily requirements for protein, needed fat and vitamins. Eggs are high in vitamins, A, D, E, K and B-complex. They are rich m minerals, too, particularly iron. Although eggs are low in calcium and no vitamin C, when eaten with milk and Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 31,1980—A45 against equine rhmop neumonitis,” Price said. “Norden has never sub mitted satisfactory data, even when asked, that showed the vaccine effective in preventing abortion in horses.” Equine rhinopneumonitis is an acute viral infection of the respiratory tract in horses. It is one of the major causes of viral abortion in mares. Price said the ob jectionable statements in Norden ads implied that Rhinomune was as effective as another USDA-licensed veterinary biological product in preventing equine abortion due to rhinop little of nutrients citrus fruits, all essential nutrients are supplied. About two-thirds of the fats m eggs are unsaturated. These are the liquid, readily digestible fats. Lecithin and other fatty materials m the yolk make the egg valuable in cooking. These substances help make salad dressing, cake batters, cream puffs and other similar foods stable. Even with all these nutrients, a large egg con tarns only 80 calories! This makes eggs especially useful for those who must watch their weight, and the con valescent - the egg meat is fully and easily digested - who must use nutritious light food. Yolk color does not effect the eggs’ nutritional value. Nor does it effect the egg’s cooking characteristics. A PENNSYLVANIA AGRICULTURE WE'RE GROWING BETTER neumonitis infection.

Generally, brown shelled eggs have a darker yolk color than eggs with white shells. Since commercial laying hens are confined, lighter and more uniformly colored yolks are being produced. Shell color is determined by the breed of hen, and like the yolk color, does not affect the nutritive value of the egg. Fresh eggs, protected by the shell and two shell membranes, are wholesome foods. Fresh shell eggs can be kept refrigerated, in then cartons with the large end up for approximately five weeks without significant quality losses. The fresh egg only loses moisture and carbon dioxide with age, and nutrient value.
