With the present prevailing custom

Occasional articles have been print
ed calling attention to the fact that
the cold-storase men were reaping
vast profits which rightfully belonged
to the farmer, and advising the farmer
TO send his own eggs to the storage
house or to preserve them by other
means. As q matter of fact, the cold
storage of eggs has not of late years
been particularly profitable. there hav-
Ing been severe losses during several
seasons. Evea were the profits Of egg
storing many times greater than they
are. the above advice would still be
unwise, for the storing. removing and
selling of the farmers individual case
of eggs would eat up all possible

operators are properly preserved in
cold storage. the best and most efii-

the farmers seTvice. Because OF the
severe competition that prevails in

increase in price which the business
will stand. A comparison of the sum-
mer prices of eggs now with summer

substantiate the truth of this state.
