GETS SMALL EGGS.
Connecticut Suffers Because Hon Fruit
in Other Places is Sold by Weight.

The Wallingford sealer of weights
and measures. Frank Ray, announces
that new ordinance will be passed by
the court of burgesses within a few
weeks compelling merchants to sell
eggs by weight rather than by count
The state authority in this matter is
taking up the various cities and Dor
oughs in turn and similar ordinance
was recently promulgated in New Ha-
ven.
For some time there has been com
plant that eggs received in Walling-
ford were small. some of them being
about one-haf the weight of those for
merly received there. This is explain
ed by the fact that eggs are sold by
weight throughout New Jersey ano
elsewhere and are accordingly selected
and this state gets the little ones.
