A ALABAMA has declared war on the

was ever taken; none more beneficial to the entire population of the state. Every blow leveled at sloppiness, laziness and preying on ones fellow counts for better conditions of living and better men.
 Denmark arose from poverty to af- fluence by honest marketing of eggs, but ter and bacon Her products got to sell ing at a higher price in London than the Irish, English or Scotch. Why the price? Because the Denmark product was known to be honest
 Denmark established cooperative sell ing. Farmers brought their stuff to cen tral stations. There it was graded each farmer paid for his stuff and the whole shipped under an honest label specifying exact quality of product.
 Each egg was picked from the nest the day it was laid and the date stamped on it. A farmer bringing in a stale egg was rep rinanded. If he repeated the offense he was suspended If he did it third time he was forever expelled from the CO., operative society.
 Denmark never shipped bad eggs. This was seen to at the shipping stations Den mark eggs never had to enter an apology. Denmark eggs came to London command ing a premium along with Denmark but ter and bacon. The people waxed pros porous on one of the shortest farming sea- sons anywhere in the world.
 J. M. Moore, supervisor of the division offoods and drugs of the state agricultural department, makes this formal announce ment:
 On behalf of the producers of high quality eggs, of the consumer who pays for sound eggs and of the great poultry and egg industry of the state which Is rapidly developing, four in spectors are commissioned to at once
 investigate market conditions
 Any lot of eggs found to be in whole or in part filthy, decomposed, putrid or rotten is subject to seizure and confiscation. Circuit court costs alone of any seizure to the owner is $10 to SIP if the eggs found to be sound are returned to claimant. If eggs are ordered by the court to be confiscated they are complete loss to the owner who had violated the law.
 What has caused Mr. Moore to take this step and issue this warning? He gives the reason in these words:
 News comes from hucksters in the egg producing territory of several portions of the state that eggs are al- lowed to stay in hot nests for two days or week before they are gath cred; are marketed without being candled so as to eliminate the bad eggs; are next exposed for sale in the sunshine on hot sidewalks or in the hottest place in the store.
 Under these conditions the rotten egg price of 15 cents dozen is paid the producer who collects his eggs twice day and markets them fresh and cool, and these eggs are sold to the consumer at the same price alongside the doubtful state, rotten eggs
 All Alabama pays for the lazy man, the thriftless and the cheat wherever he is found. The honest egg producer gets no more for his product than the dishonest and filthy one The consumer pays the same price for bad eggs and for good ones.
 A whole industry is stalled. The honest
