T.. S. FIXES NEW RULES FOR
BUTTER AND EGG DEALERS

Confirming the butter and egg bus
mess to only such persons and ag-
encies as are actually dendering serv-
ice to the people is the purpose OF
new rules of the U. S. Food Admin
istration governing transactions OF
butter and egg exchanges.
These new rules virtually elimin-
ate from business all spectators and
others who are not of actual service
in handling goods from producer to
consumers in the most direct and
systematic way.
'It is believed that the producer
will not only have greater confidence
in the marketing agencies operating
under such regulations. but that he
will receive a larger proportion Of
the price which the consumer pays"

Administrator for Washington.
