eggs at two and one-half cents pound
equivalent to four cents dozen), be-
cause they had been on hand for so
long time that it was absolutely
necessary to get rid of them at some
price. til is never known where all of
this poisonous food is disposed of,
but it always finds its way into the
consuming public's stomach. The
fact is that the bulk of these eggs,
called seconds, spots, and riots, ,
when they are placed in cans in stor-
age, are absolutely unfit for food; but
when broken, mixed together, and
frozen solid, it is almost impossible
for the baker or consumer to know
how good or how bad they are.
"Just here it may be explained that
the offensive odor of bad egg is dis
sipated in the process of baking, and
thus the attention of the consumer is
not called to the matter. 1t some
times happens, however, that the
loud flavor is sufficiently strong to
manifest itself in the taste of the cake
or pastry
