fresh eggs to sell in winter is also ben
efitted, because cold storage eggs are
put ON sale at high prices and fresh
ones are easily sold at s or 10 cents a
dozen in advance Of the market price
for cold storage eggs. But the on
sumer is not greatly benefited by mod
ern facilities for preserving eggs.
1t Is true that In the days when 1t
was possible to buy eggs, at least in
the country. for 10 cents, and some
times for 5 or 6 cents a dozen, in the
spring 1t was impossible to procure
them out of season. There were sun
dry old wives methods Of preserving
them in a near fresh condition for win
ter consumption, but with very few
were successfully kept until January.
The laying hen in winter was decided
ly "rara avis" when any sort Of shelter
was considered sufficient for chickens.
and any sort of fare was good enough
Of 1t kept them alive through the cold
weather.
But it is easier to get along with no
eggs when there are none on sale,
and rich and poor are upon an equality
in that particular, than to get along
without them when the market Is full
Of them at 35 or 40 cents a dozen. The
milk in the cocoanut will not be tapped
till a way is found to reduce the whole
sale price otherwise than by means OF
boycotting distributors or underselling
them for purely philanthropic reasons,
as did the Philadelphia altruists who
temporarily broke a market that will
not remain broken when they cease
their activities.
If there is hope Of any successful
combating of the egg spectators, or
the SO called egg trust, it lies in the
farmers growing appreciation of the
opportunity for profit that lies in stor-
ing his perishable products in the sea
son of plenty and comparatively low
prices and selling to consumers out or
season. Farmers are now storing fruit
to some extent, paying storage charges
and making a profit on the venture.
Unless it proves possible for the large
dealers to intervene and run up the
storage charges to small holders the
growth of producers cold storage may
eventually exercise an effect upon the
markets for ~perishable eatables, in
Guiding eggs. In the meantime such
efforts as that of the Philadelphia
trust busters will be of merely temper
airy effect, as will such slumps in the
egg market as that which is reported
as affecting prices this w~eek.-Louis-
vile Courier-Journal.

anything. The incident has it's grave

THE EGG TRUST BUSTERS

Great relief to the poor, and to the
ordinarily well to do, was afforded by
the Philadelphia woman who bought
eggs at wholesale and sold them, at
various distributing points in Phila-
delphia, at a price Just covering the
cost Of distribution. But the middle
mans profits are not illegitimate pro-
fits. Is the problem solved by merely
cutting the middle man out of his
profits? He must live, and must live
upon the difference between the
wholesale and retail price Of commodi.
ties, despite the popular feeling that
the middle man is an old man OF the
sea seated upon the back Of the con-
sumer. who must struggle YEARLY
under his burden.
The real wickedness in the egg bust
ness Is that of speculation, and not Of
fair profits upon distribution. The
buyers Of eggs who get them at low
prices in the natural laying season and
hold them for inordinate profits are
more quality than the small merchants
who are forced to buy from cold stor-
age. and must sell, at a profit or at a
loss, stock" that is perishable.
Fresh eggs will remain expensive so
long as they are carce. Their produc-
ton means the scientific feeding, hous-
ing and even exercising of hens so
that the conditions under which they
lay during the spring and summer are

approximately reproduced In autumn
and winter. Few poultry raisers u C
coed in producing a large number Of
eggs out of season and many persons
who a afford Injuries are willing to
pay more than the market price for
fresh eggs. Poultry raisers insist that
when the cost Of providing hens with
a varied menu Is considered plus the
labor and the investment represented
by the plant" fresh eggs in winter
are not produced for a song and can
not be sold for a song.
That may be true. But since the in
PRODUCTION Of cold storage 1t has been
possible to distribute in cold weather
countless millions of eggs laid in warm
weather. The effect Of cold storage
should have been to provide eggs at
reasonable prices all the year. The
cost Of storing from summer until win
ter is nothing like as great as the cost
Of caring for hens in such a name
that they will lay in winter. But in
stead of bringing about the desirable
condition, cold storage has made eggs
high priced in summer, as compared
with the prices that ruled before the
days Of cold storage, and much higher
priced in winter.
This has benefited producers some
what. The farmer whose poultry yard
is productive of eggs only in the spring
and summer can get more for eggs
nowadays than he could twenty-five
years ago. The producer who has
