Declare Bad Eggs
Due to Farmers
And POuItererS,

: Washington, June 10.-GonVlneed
that means could be found To OVER
come the loss of several million OF
dollar; a year in the egg industry, the
department of agriculture has lust
completed an extensive inquiry into
the causes fer bad and added eggs. In
a statement issued, today, the inves-
tigators fix the blame onto the farY-
ers and poulterers.
The greatest part of the loss Is
due mainly To ignorance or indliief-
ence on the part of the farmer ana
producer" says the report. and only
a small part is caused by earelessness
on the part of the buyer and shipper.
The department urges the obserN>
ance of five simple rules in the con
duct of the egg industry, as follows:
Give the hens clean nests.
Keep eggs in cool, dry place.
Gather eggs at least once daily.
Market eggs at least twice week.
Kill or sell all mature male birds as
soon as the Matching season closes.
The result of the investigation has
been embodied in a special pamphlet
ordered printed by the department.

FOREIGN CATTLE TRADE.

Contrary to all expectations that the
eXoortation of cattle from the States
to foreign markes was at an end. this
last week, proved record breaker, as
there was the largest amount of cat
tie shipped from New York and Bos-
ton for over 4 year past. New York
shipped l27S cattle to London, 43 cat
lie to Bermuda, and % sheep 10 the
West Indies. From Boston, on the
Bohemian, sailing Sunday for Liver
pool, Lunness & Halligan shipped 2o2
Canadian cattle. 1t is expected that
small shipments will be made weekly
for The present from both these ports.
As yet no quotations have been given
on American cattle at the English
