Weight of Large VS.. Small Eggs.

In the State of Massachusetts law has
been enacted to regulate the equitable
sale OF eggs by the pound instead of by
the dozen. The New York Herald thinks
other States would do we'll to adopt SIM
liar law, as there is no equity in comput-
ing the value of small egg equal to that
of one twice as large. A writer in the
american Grocer says:
On testing the difference we find about
this result: Small eggs will weigh say
one pound per dozen, medium one and
three-fOurths pounds, while large will
weigh two and fourth pounds. We.
think that one and three-fourths pounds is
about a fair average. We buy about 1 500
dozen per month from producers and we
find all Of the above difference in the
weight. Parties claim that the hens that
lay the small eggs will lay the greatest
number. Now just see what a premium
we are paying for the production of an
inferior article. We still notice, and this
by experiment too, that the shells of two
pounds Of meat from the small eggs weigh
nearly double that of the large eggs. We
will try to explain our idea: For instance,
one woman brings us four dozen eggs that
weigh four pounds; we pay her eighty
cents for them; she says nothing; it is her
due, twenty cents per dozen for her eggs;
another comes, has two dozen eggs, we
pay her forty cents, weigh her eggs and
find she has four pounds and she does not
omplain-twenty cents per dozen for
eggs. Now we say justice demands that
we pay at least as much for the two dozen
that weigh four pounds as we do for the
four dozen that weigh four polnds, while
the shells of the four dozen weigh
much more than the shells from the two
dozen. Difference in these figures is in
tended for extremes, yet it is of everyday
occurrence that we find them both. Our
opinion is that the price should be based
on the rate of two pounds to the dozen
eggs.

Mr.. II. d. Christy, from near Terre
Haute, Ind, who brought car load of
relief goods to this county last winter
and distributed them after having can
vassed a large portion of the county and
finding the most destitute, is visiting
here at present. He expresses himself
as greatly delighted with the appearance
of things now as compared to then.
The cattle that at time were mere skele-
tons he says are now looking better than
the cattle in Indiana that have been
kept on blue grass pastures, and people
who then had no feed for their stock and
but little for themselves he now finds
surrounded with an abundance of food
for man and beast. Mr.. Christy made
many friends while here last winter who
are now glad to see him, and as he is
looking at land with the intention of
buying we hope that he may determine
to become citizen of Allen county.
