TRY TO ELIMINATE
THE MIDDLEMAN
Seeking Method Of Sending
Eggs by Parcel Post.
GREAT NEED IS A CONTAINER

With Finding Of Safe and Light Box
Both Producer and Consumer Would
Be Greatly Benefited-chief Of Blu
reau Of Animal industry Has Long
Been Seeking Such Device.
Washington.-How to get the egg
from the farmer or the poultryman to
the consumer without the employment
of the middleman Is the problem that
the division of animal husbandry OF
the bureau of animal industry has
pought to solve. 1t has suggested,
1Cut out the middleman and bring the
producer and the consumer together
through the parcel post" But DR.. A.
d. Melvin, chief of the bureau, says
that this is easier said than done. The
softness Of the eggshell is the great
obstacle in the way. No contatner that
exactly fills the bill has been found.
If the container is secure 1t weighs too
much; If light enough it is not secure.
DIR. Melvin and associates have been
experimenting for months to find the
proper container for mailing eggs.
A hen that lays every day in the
year would be worth her weight In
gold. There were laid in the United
States last year 1,700000,000 dozen
eggs, worth $3.50, 100000. The price Of
eggs has gradually increased for twen-
ty years. In 1900 New York paid for
the average best fresh eggs from IL to
20 cents. In 1912 the figures were 201s
to 60 cents. At the same time New
York has been consuming more eggs
each succeeding year. In 1900 2,799,-
73T cases Of eggs were received In
New York; last year the number In
creased to 4,723,55S. In 1891 Boston.
Chicago. Cincinnati, Milwaukee. New

At the recent National Convention,
an aged man was introduced as Maj

aged SO years, an intimate friend of

convention to high pitch of feeling
when he recounted the story of how
he had been present when President
Lincoln reluctantly signed the in
ternal revenue act and had said in
signing it, that he would give his
right arm, if it could be avoided. The
aged speaker repeated the words
which President Lincoln said to him
in condemnation of the liquor traffic
on the day of the assassination,

ods of handling them. The old custom
of selling eggs by the dozen has been
discarded, and now the producer dis
poses of his eggs by the pound. This
has improved the character of the egg.
"The quickest way to arouse de-
sire in the producer to raise better
chickens and supply better eggs is to
show him that good quality poultry
and eggs are worth more than those
Of poor quality" said III. G. Pierce Of
the food research laboratory Of the bu-
reau of chemistry.
In the southern states this has been
done At one time the North Carolina
egg was considered the poorest on the
market; the meat was lean. When
the producers found that fat eggs
weighed more than poor ones they be-
gan to take better care of their hens
and get better eggs. Soon North Car
olina eggs ranked with Tennessee and
Kentucky eggs.

country between the producer and the

"In marketing eggs there Is an enor-
nous loss" said Mr.. Pierce. "Much
of this is preventable. While this loss
falls upon all who handle eggs. 1t Ia
borne chiefly by the producer and the
consumer. The producers loss, caused
by decrease in price, under present
conditions represents that due to spoil
age or poor quality. The consumers
loss Is due to a curtailed supply be-
lause of the eggs that are either OF
poor quality or a total loss; hence the
consumer has to pay higher prices for
those that finally reach him.
"While these losses are increased AZ
all stages of handling by the producer.
the country storekeeper, the produce
dealer the railroad, the commission
man and jobber and the retailer. the
! greatest preventable loss occurs before
the produce dealer obtains the goods
that is, while the eggs are still on the
farm or in the hands of the small
country storekeeper who takes eggs In
exchange for supplies"

NATIONAL CONFERENCE
ON HOUSING

Cincinnati, o., Nov 2S--When the
Third National Conference on Hous-
ing is called to order here next We'd
nesday by President w. de Forest, it
will be the first time that one of
these conferences meets in the Mid
die West. All preparations for the
gathering have been completed and it
is expected that the conference will
surpass all it's predecessors in inter
est, Importance and attendance. The
housing problem which is particularly
veXing in all the older and larger
cities where in the course of many
years large slum districts have de-
veloped and where, owing to the linn
itations of space, the introduction OF
corrective changes is connected with
great difficulties. Cincinnati is con.
fronted with this problem in rather
serious form and the question as tc
the proper handling of the problem
will form one of the most interesting
subjects of the round-table discus
sions which are to form one of the
most interesting features of the con
ference. Many experts in housing
matters, architecture, city planning
and engineering from all parts of the
United States and from Canada are
expected to attend the conference
and to take part in the discussions
