The prohibition comes under the
unwhOlesome food law passed by
the last legislature. 1t does not
specify eggs, but Mr.. Slater holds
ancient eggs to he in this category.
according 10 his interpr citation
farmers and dealers will from now
on have a care as the mere possess
sion Of old eggs with view TO
their future sale constitutes a viola
ton.
Dealers in buying eggs from
farmers have NOT been in the habit
of paying for them on a grade basis.
They we're general y accepted IN
bulk, and then the ancient speci-
mems were. set aside for purchase by
/ a certain class of bakers, who chem
ically treated them. Thus manS
/ OF them entered into the manuia
ture Of choice confections and pas
try.
Dealers from now On viii have (
insist on fresh eggs and II any o
the stale variety are run in OF
them, the farmer viii suffer.
He, under the law, is just as II
Z able as the dealer. -Stewartvin
