The egg sales and the care for the
product in order to receive the top
of the market is Of value to those
who would receive the best revenue
from hens. This report is compiled

greatest packers in the United States
and is authority.
Cream deliveries during the week
show some increase. Prices remain
generally unchanged with a good de-
mand for butter, both for storage

Quality Of butter manufactured
could be improved if more attention
was given TO the care and handling
of the cream on the part of the pro-
ducers, and if the cream produced
was marketed more frequently.
It is very important, if cream is to
bring top prices, that it be clean in
flavor-warm cream should never be

fecting the quality Of eggs marketed,
although there has been but little
change in the market quotations. To
secure the highest prices, eggs should
be gathered daily, kept in a cool
place and marketed frequently.
1t should be remembered that the
ROSTERS are not necessary for egg
production; that infertile eggs, pro-
duced during the summer months,
have better keeping qualities and re-
suit in better prices.
A larger volume of poultry was
marketed during the week, result
ing in slightly lower prices.
