DOPED eggs HAVE
APPEARED IN MARKET
Raisers of Fancy Poultry in
Utah Have Learned Some
Eastern Tricks.

From the appearance of some strictly
fresh ranch" eggs that have been un-
loaded on the 'local market within the
past few days, rasers OF fancy poultry
In Utah have learned some OF the tricks
OF the trade long since adopted by East
ern chicken fonciers. The trick Is the
doping of the eggs. so to speak which
destroys their fccundity thus preventing
their being used for broodng purposes.
What Breeder Does.
In this way the breeder of fancy poul-
try Is enabled to sell eggs laid by his
Tor tho eggs to be used for settings he
still asks $50 or 81 a dozen. And not only
does he make it impossible to hatch
chickens from such eggs, but makes the
eggs practically useless for any but bak-
Ing purposes. Whatever the process Is. it
causes the whites and yolks OF the eggs
when broken TO run together just as they
do In eggs that havo outgrown their
period OF usefulness. and hence makes
them anything but inviting looking for
the table.
Sold to Bakeries.
Just such eggs as these are finding their
way TO the Salt Lake market now, and
while dealers here are called upon to pay
the high price asked at this season for
strictly fresh eggs, the eggs are dlsap-
pointing when tested, and out of a large
shipment received Tuesday all OF them
were disposed OF TO the bakeries
