Eggs were bringing only IA and 15 cents a dozen in Australia last month and the low price has caused business houses to buy them extensively for pulping. Hundreds of tons were thus broken into cans, sealed up and placed in freezing chambers for sale in win ter to bakers. This season the pulping was done by machinery.
