EGG SHIPMENTS
FOUND THAT TAINTED ONES
SENT EAST FOR TANNING,
SOLD TO CHEAP
BAKERIES.

Vermillion, April 23.-There will
be no letup on the part of federal
and state food officials in the en-
forcement of the food laws in con
nection with the sale of bad eggs, ac-
cording to State Food Commissioner
Frary, who has just returned from
Chicago, where he was called to at
tend a conference on this question.
The active cooperation between state
and national food inspectors. which
last year resulted in catching a num-
Der of prominent shippers in the
dragnet of the law, will be continued
and vigorous measures adopted to
put an end to the traffic in eggs which
are unfit for food. Commissioner
Frary has been appointed a member
of a special committee of the Nation
al Association OF Dairy. Food and
Drug Officials 10 study problems re
lated to the egg industry. and ii wa
for the purpose of outlining the wori,
of this committee and adoptinc ple
for the present season that he wa
allied to Chicago.
The conference agreed that TIE fo'
lowing eggs should be excluded frt
shipment. Eggs partially h}tche
eggs with yOlts stuck to the ehcn
moldy eggs. heavy blood rings. hlarl-
rots. black spots and all other e1F~
of an unwholesome character. Ii was
thought necessary by the food Off
,ials 70 thus define the eggs which
are not to be shipped I'm order to
overcome the practice which grew up
last year under a ruling made by the
government inspectors. This ruling
requiring eggs which were unfit for
foods to be labeled for manufactur-
ing purposes the superstition being
that " manufacturing purposes here
meant that the eggs were to be used
for the tanning industry. 1t devel-
oped, however, that enoromus quail
tiles of undergrade eggs were ship
ped into Chicago and taken TO estab-
lishments where they were broken
and either frozen or dried for subse-
quent sale to bakers. In this way
great quantities of rotten eggs reach
ed the cheap bakeries.
