Production and Marketing.
Mr.. Hastings gives several suggestions
for the production of good eggs and for
marketing them i'm good condition. as
follows
1. Hens that produce not only a goodly
number of eggs, but eggs OF moderately
large size. weighing two ounces each on
an average. Plymouth rocks. wyandottes,
Rhode Island reds. orpingtOns. leghorns
or minorcas may he expected to do this.
=. Good housing. regular feeding and
watering. and. above all, clean, dry nests.
3. Daily gathering of eggs. ana. when
the temperature is above eighty degrees,
gathering twice a day.
4. The combining OF all broody hens as
soon discovered.
=. The rejection as doubtful of all eggs
previous day. Such eggs should be used
at home. where each may be broken
separately.
Cool Place for Summer Product.
q. The placing all all summer eggs, as
available.
Z. The prevention at all times of mois-
ture i'm any form coming in contact with
the egg shells.
y. The disposal of young cocherelS be-
fore they begin to annoy the hens. Also
the selling or combining of old male birds
from The time Matching is over until cool

g The using of cracked and dirty. as
well as small eggs at home. Such eggs.

wholesome, but when marketed are dis

II. Keeping eggs as cool and dry as
possible while on the way to town and
while in country stores.
T. Keeping eggs away from musty
ceIleis or bad odorS
L.. The use of strong. clean cases and

OF FACTS ISSUED
BY WILLIAM r.. CURTIS.

Written for The Star and the Chicago Record
Herald.
In his report last year Secretary Wilson
asserted that the eggs and poultry pro-
duced upon the farms of the United
states are worth much as the wheat
and the cotton crops. and That the income
from the henhouses of the land was one
az the four or five most important sources
of the wealth of the nation. This sur
prising statement Is confirmed by circular
No. 40 which has recently been issueu
ny the Department of Agriculture, emil
tied The Egg Trade of the tnited
States. by Milo NJ. Hastings. scientinc
assistant, animal husbandry office.
This bulletin contains about all the In
formation that could be gathered con-
corning eggs, and the author discusses
the question OF quality we'll guam
tity. lie tells us how to determine the
quality in eggs and how il is impaired by
carelessness. by time and other influences

by which an egg travels from the pro-
ducer TO the consumer are described. A

that is OF personal interest to every
breakfast table.
The loss OF wealth in this country due
to the actual spelling Of eggs" Mr. Hast
ings asserts constitutes an enormous
waste which could In large measure. be
saved were eggs given reasonable care
from the time of laying until they reached
the consumer

sons: ID Lack of realization OF the inn

Method of Handling Eggs.

The general country store is tine most
common market for eggs, and, being a
perishable crop, they are taken perhaps
once week 10 the merchant. who re-
ceives wer>.y quotations from a number
OF egg Buyers and ships what he has
collected at intervals of from two days
to two weeks by local freight. The
dealer pays by the case. regardless of
quality, repacks them in nAy cases and
ships them in carload lots - jobbers. who
supply the groceries and market men.
The jobber Classics them into a number
of grades which are sold 10 the various
trades.
In western city this may mean two
grades. good and bad; i'm New York II
NAV mean seven or eight grades the
finer eggs being packed i'm sealed cartons,
or each egg may be stamped with the
dealers brand. The city retailers include
groceries diaries, butchers shops. drug
stores, hotels, restaurants and bakeries
The great bulk of egss move through the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1909-10-31
crease in other states. but the supply has
not kept pace with the demand.
Advances in Price Continuous.

There has been a continuous advance In
the price of eggs for the past ten or
twelve years and il has been greater
than the average rise Of values in Other
food products. At the same time the
quality of the eggs sold on the retail
market has not improved. and Mr.. Has
tings asserts that IL is decidedly inferior
to that Of several European countries.
The average price of eggs on the farm
has continued TO advance. but it has
not advanced as rapidly as the retail
price in the cities of the country.
Throughout tine western states. partic-
ularly on the Pacc slope, eggs cost more
in the village stores than they do in the
fancy grocery stores of New York city
and Chicago. This. as was explained in
d recent letter. is due TO the fact that so
many farmers IN that part of the country
are devoting themselves To a single crop.
to fruit. to hops, to wheat or to some
other one thing which requires attention
during the summer months only and
leaves them free to leave their places
and spend the winter in the eastern states
or in some favorite resort: whereas, II
they kept chickens or "A COW, they would
have to remain home all winter to look
after them.
Farm prices for eggs throughout the
west now run as high as - cents ana
- cents "A dozen. while these same eggs
sell at retail from - cents to ~ cents ii
dozen.
Mr. Hastings says that the eggs Of
the United States are worth much more
when laid than they are when they reach
the consumer Now, il they reach the
consumer i'm good condition lie would pay
a greater price and receive better eggs
and more of them. The only change that
would occur in consumption would be
that the poorer customer, who now eats
low grade eggs. would be obliged to Sub
stitUte some other food for them. and
that the more fortunate customer. who
now limits his consumption because of
the poor quality, would increase his use
Of eggs at the expense OF other foods.
In the egg trade competition is open. and
the profit of improved methods the
loss due to waste is necessarily distrib-
uted according to definite principles
among all those concerned with the pro-
duction. transportation and sale

Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1909-12-30

Freight is exceedingly slow in resum-
ing a normal condition in spite of the
claim of the railroad company that the
switchmen's strike is at an end. There
is not a single town between Langdon
and Grand Forks that can claim they
have better than a weeks fuel supply
ahead. The winter season is so far
but one-third gone and the existing con-
dition is made to appear of a greater
serious Importance by the fact that it
wouldn't take more than half a blizzard
to tie up the railroad in a hopeless snow
blockade. And then what? This isn't
any scare talk but a sensible view of a
condition that may soon confront us
unless the railroad companies and their
employees come to an agreement over
the strike.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1909-12-30

Again the supreme court has decided
a case which shows the Importance of
members of the legislature framing
laws that will stand the constitution.
Many important measures in the history
of this state enacted in response to the
demand of the people, have been render
ed void by the decisions of the court,
and frequently such decisions are based
merely on teehnicalities. The most
important committees Of the legislature
are the judiciary committees into whose
hands come the bills for appropriations
and other matters. for a decision as 10
their legal correctness as to form, phra-
seology. etc. The latest instance of a
defective bill passed by the legislature
is the spotter's reward law, which is set
aside by the supreme court on account
of the incorrect phrasing of the appro-
priation clause.
