COLD STORAGE LAW GOOD One
Food Commissioner Harman Makes
Ocular Demonstration.
DATE IS UPON ALL PACKAGES
One May Tell NOW when BuyinE
Eggs How Long They Have Been
on Ice, and Price IL Fixed
Accordingly.
From a Staff Correspondents


LINCOLN, Nov. H-(Specisl. )-Food
Commissioner Hsrmsn was conducting a
school of demonstration today, taking up
the cold storage proposition.
Mr.. Harmsn bought cold storage eggs
from three different dealers and from
these eggs, which wene in different
stages of cold storage. showed the ad
vantage OF having the cold storage law
and how much It meant to people who
had to depend on the stores for their
eggs.
Mr.. Harman pointed out the difference
in the three samples of eggs which had
been broken into bowls, All were in diff
ferent stages of age but all appeared
fresh. These eggs" said Mr.. Harman,
were bought as cold storage eggs. At
one place they cost 30 cents a dozen. at
another So and I think 1 gave SO for the
other dozen.
Had 1 gone to a store and called for
eggs under the old law I would have got
eggs but no one would have known
whether they were a recent production
of the hen or had been in cold storage
for several months. Now 1 can go to a
store and call for fresh eggs and by pay
ing the fresh egg price get them IL I
want cold storage eggs get cold storage
eggs and 1 don't have TO pay fresh egg
prices and receive cold storage eggs.
Those eggs for usual usage are as good
as the fresh eggs and the customer has
the advantage OF getting just exactly
what he calls for. There are so many
people who can't tell the difference from
a cold storage egg and fresh egg that
IL is practically easy for the dealer to
sell storage eggs for fresh egg prices
Now you get what you ask for and pay
the price for what you want"
