CARLOAD OF EGGS
JUDITH BASIN
POULTRY INDUSTRY OF FERGUS
is OF GREAT ECONOMIC
IMPORTANCE
Shipment is Made to See Ii it is Prac-
tical to Compete With Eastern
P~oultrymen; Brown Eggs to Bos-
ton; White to New York.

The poultry industry of Fergus
county is becoming of greater ecOn0-
mis- Importance each year, and has
outgrown the local consumption de-
mands, with the result that one of the
local creameries recently shipped a
solid carload of eggs to the Boston
market to ascertain if it is possible
to compete with other poultry rails
ers of the country on the eastern mar
kets, says County Agent Carl H.
Peterson.
The poultry and marketing depart
ments of the Fergus Farm Bureau
association are watching with interest
the effort of the Fergus County
Creamery company in its attempt to
develop a better cash market for the
poultry products. This business con-
Germ is anxious to cooperate with
the poultry associations or commun-
ity groups in the matter of pooling
carload lots.
1t is of interest to note the process
the eggs go through in preparation
for the eastern trade. After eggs are
received in case lots at Lewistown
plant, they are carefully graded, says
Peterson. The brown eggs are sort
ed for the Boston market, the white
eggs for the New York market, and
all dirty, cracked and o~dd-shaped and
o%ff-color eggs are not packed for east
ern markets, but saved for home con-
sumption.
The eggs are then specially pre-
pared for storage purposes by the
Clairemont process, which consists
of dipping them in an oil preparation
sealing the pores of the egg she'll,
preventing evaporation and spelling.
The processing of the eggs adds to
the cost of preparation, but such eggs
when stored bring a premium over
untreated ones The eggs are care
fully packed and the cases labeled.
The cost of transportation is quite
an item, amounting to eve cents
a dozen from Lewistown.
The quotation for eggs thus pre-
pared when received at the Boston
market was 28 cents a dozen net. De-
Quoting sever cents freight leaves
21 cents net at Lewistown.
The important feature in connec-
tion with this test shipment is that
it demonstrates the possibility of
shipping Montana eggs to the eastern
markets, provided they can be ship
ped in carload lots at frequent inter-
walls and can be assembled at a CEN
trail point and properly graded, pre-
pared and packed by experienced
packers. If eggs are to be sold upon
the processing is not neces-
sary, says Mr.. Peterson.

HOLES LEAK NO AIR

Mr.. V. S. Milburn of Chicago has
invented a new puncture-proof inner
tube, which, in actual test, was pune
tured 500 times without the loss of
any air. Increase your mileage from
10000 to $4,000 miles without re-
moving this wonderful tube from
the wheel, and the beauty of it all is
that this e puncture-proof tube
costs no more than the ordinary tube,
and makes riding a real pleasure.
You can write Mr.. V. S. Milburn at
1888 West 47th St., Chicago, as he
wants them introduced everywhere.
Wonderful opportunity for agents. If
interested write him today.

little humble home. Little did he dream that he was

The summer fur" which has in
the past half dozen years helped
to relieve the monotony of the
midsummer period is now in its
most successful season. With the
latest developments in its use,
upon collars of light weight sum
mer garments and a continuation
of the form in which it had al
ready been utilized the 1928 sea-
son will probably break the rec
ord" of the short period since the
summer fur became a noticeable
feature of the life Of the American
cities. For II is Only about six
years, says the Trade Record of
The National City Bank of New
York, since the development of the
fashion and its use is still chiefly
confined to the United States and
to the city in which the fashion
originated. Paris
To what extent this new fashion
of the wearing of furs in mid
summer has participated in the
enormous increase in the sum paid
for furs by the people of the
United STATES is difficult to deter
mine witt extreme accuracy. Fur
experts, however, express the
opinion that Summer fur" still
forms but small proportion, per-
haps 1919, of the hundreds Of mill
ions of ac,iaIs annual paid for
furs by the People OF the United
States, for sne ans which our own
people pay fer iur do actually
run into the hunGr,is of millions.
The imports Of fufs in all forms
in the fiscal year just ended to-
tailed nearly 100 million dollars
against an average of about Is
millions a year prior to the war,
while the outturn Of "fur goods"
by the factories Of the United
States in 1921 was according to
census report just Issued l40 mill
ion dollars. and that of the
dressed furs" 20 millions.
And when we remember that
the nearly one hundred miilicn

of dollars worth sent to us are
drawn from foreign countries and
their colonies and re-exported to
the United States, the worlds big
gest importer and consumer OF
furs.
What are the principal classes of
animals which supply the furs uti-
lized in the United States? Tie
foxes of the various classes, the
marten family, Russian sable, the
mink, the squirrel, karakul, the
Persian lamb, Australian opossum,
the raccoon, the skunk, the badger,
the otter, while even the domestic
cat is not entirely exempt from the
scramble to obtain material with
which to meet the constantly in
creasing demand of fashion. Most
of the summer furs" are supplied
by the foxes, the marten, the
squirrel, the mink and the Russian
sable. A considerable quantity of
furs are now being used for light
weight wraps and consist almost
entirely of the foreign product,
largely karakul, China kidskins,
Monaghan lambskins, rabbit skins
and ernine.
Is this increasing demand os
the world for furs materially re.
ducing the number of fur bearing
animals or likely to do so in The
near future? Not to an extent yer
appreciable, and it seems probable
that any material shortage in the.
product from natural sources wiz
be followed by an enlargement Of

has IN recent years made limited
contributions to the worlds fur

dollars valuation of furs imported
is that in the country from which
they are sent to the United States
and are therefore exclusive of
the freight and tariff duties, and
also remember that the 100 million
dollars worth reported by the 1921
census is the factory valuation of
the goods, it is quite apparent that
the Sums annually paid by the final
consumer will run into the hun
dreds of millions, and may per-
haps cross the 800 million dollar
line in the calendar year 1928. The
big increase in recent years is due
III part to larger quantities of furs
used and in part to higher prices.
The growth in the use of furs is
illustrated by the fact the u. S.
census reports show that the CAPT
tai of the factories engaged in the
production of fur goods increased
from 80 million dollars in 1914 to
81 millions in 1919. New York and
Chicago are the chief fur markets
of the United States.
Certainly there can be no doubt
of the enormous increase in the
sums paid for furs, since the total
output Of the fur factories of the
country has grown from d
million dollars in 1899 to 100
millions in 1921. while the value
of the imports has grown from an
average of about Is million dollars
a year prior to the war to 90 millions
in Eco. and about 90 millions in
the fiscal year 1923. which ends
with the month of June.
Where do they come from these
hundreds of millions of dollars
worth of furs used by our people?
About one-half from our own for
ests and plains and mountains and
about one-half from foreign coun-
tries, chiefly Canada, Russia,
Siberia, China, Great Britain,
France. Germany, the Scandi-
navian countries, Japan, Australia,
