Eggs By Parcel Post
CONTINUED from second page.)

carefully placed in the solution each
day. Eggs kept in this way are per-
fectly good but naturally they do not
command the prices of those newly
laid. The shells sometimes break in
boiling, but this may be avoided by
puncturing the end with a pin just be-
fore they are dropped into the water.
The only drawback to marketing
eggs by parcel post appears to be the
time and trouble involved in packing
them. This is compensated for by the
extra price that can always be obtain
ed for products that are absolutely re-
liable. At bottom, therefore, the
shippers success depends upon the
care with which he safeguards the re-
putation of his products. Satisfied
customers will soon build up his busi-
ness for him. Any Post Office will
furnish complete information in re-
gard to regulations and rates, and, as
already stated, the several State Ex-
pertinent Stations have information in
regard to the various types of ship
ping boxes. The results of the U. S.
Governments investigation of the
matter have been published in Farm
ers' Bulletin 594, of the Department
OF Agriculture, which will be sent free
