Eggs Are Now Safe in the Mails.
To test this point the department
of agriculture made 466 shipments
Of eggs in from l to 10 dozen lots by
parcel post, during five recent
months, They were sent from vari-
Gus points under various conditions
and at various times. Out of 9131
eggs shipped, 200 were broken, lis
cracked. Ninety-one of the eggs
were broken because of the parcels
containing them were handled con-
trary to postal rules. making the
loss only 1.S per cent. The result
indicated better price for the pro.
ducer and a better article for the
consumer. This method of shipment
is especially good for the man with
small flock, or far from market
Thin-shelled or long or irr9gularlS
shaped eggs should not be sent by
mail. To production of the non.
fertile eggs will also give better
quality and reduce losses. Breakag,
