housewife has been satisfied II abe

were eaten without relish and d.
gested without enthusiasm.
That day has passed or Ii quickly
passing. The up.to.dnto farmer has
learned how 70 produce good eggs
He IL now learning how to deliver
them at tho door OF tho consumer in

today just as the bad esq was q fow
years ago.
In the best markets no poor cggn

EXPRESS RATES

Lower Tariff Ordered for
Seattle Fruit and Fish

A reduction averaging better than
III per cent in express rates on fresh
fish and fresh fruit from Seattle q
interior banks has just been granted
in an order by tho Interstate com
merco commission, Tho reduction
followed a long fight by the Seattle
Chamber OF Commerce.
Tho reductions win mean many
thousands OF dollars TO Puget sound
shippers, IL Is stated by experts
Hundreds OF tons OF fresh fish &C
East every year, and four or five
carloads SO TO New York city every
day. An extensive market for fresh
berries and other fruits has existed
In the East. so that the rate on
these two products has been an Inn
portant item.
Heretofore Puget sound shippers
and growers have been able 10 com.
pete with nearer producers In East.
ern markets because OF the superior
size and quality OF the Sound fish
and berry. Reduction in express
rates viii. without doubt. mean that
the Eastern markets for these two
Important products viii be greatly
expanded.
Typical OF the reductions 20 other
points. the rates 20 New York city

Under the commissions order. the

IMMEDIATE FUTURE
WILL CONTINUE ACTIVE

Under the conditions outlined
equipment companies must look for
slackening OF demand. Those rail.
roads which are able to exceed s
per cent return on total bonds and
stocks. the amount permitted un.
der the transportation act OF 1920.
before consideration is given 10 the
so-called recapture claus. OF that
act. may logically be disposed to
place a considerable portion OF the
excess in maintenance and equip.
mert.
This Is not. however. n factor
that should loom large In tho 1924
situation. The possible desires I'm
this direction viii be checked by
recognition OF the abnormal equip.
ment program which has been en-.
forced this year and the relative
business needs Of tho future.
There IL nothing IN the imme.
date situation in respect TO stocks
Of the companies concerned which
sets them apart from the stock
'ahAFsNN ~ "a WitRtFs continued MT.
Babson. THE various issues listed
on tho exchange have shown n
very different price trend than that
OF the general market.
Contrary to the average Of in.
dustrial securities. the equipments
sold at far higher levels In late
1922 and early 1928 than were seen
in either the 1916 or 1919 markets.
The relatively conservative course
that has been followed In respect
to dividend payments is largely re.
sponsible for this.
Earnings in 1922 were actually
far below the showing made In any
Of the years 1916 to 1920. inclusive.
II may logically be assumed. there.
fore. that the abnormal stock prices
existing on n basis OF earnings
hardly better than 1918, must fall
back on the factor OF accumulated
| earnings

PRINCIPAL POINTS IN q.

result that any acute shortage has
