quotations wired in order to give the
people in this section proper informa-

If the bulk of the business was
done through your exchange, your quo
tations would have some merit but we
know from our own experience how
people have worked the price for their
own interests, and q very few cases of
eggs will do the business. There has
been some talk of Petaluma dealers
trying to make a price on eggs, and If
we do there will be no charge for fur
nishing the quotations. Very respect
