tinue. The volume Of eggs mar.
keted during the winter continues
to increase, because Of increases in
specialized egg farms, as well Is
increase in numbers Of early pro-
ducing pullets on general farms. It
appears that storage eggs Of the
highest quality will be an incrieas-
ingly important factor in the price
Of fresh gathered winter eggs. Dur
ing October, November and Decem.
Der Of 1927 the fanciest storage
packs sold from 3 to &c Z dozen
higher than during the previous
year. Many buyers preferred the
uniform quality Of the storage eggs
to the variable quality Of the ord
mary run of resh eggs.
Large specialized poultry farms
have increased rapidly in numbers
during the past few years. The
use Of mechanical devices such as
mammoth incubators, large unit
brooders, etc, has resulted in in.
creased efficiency in the use Of
labor. All indications point to q
continued increase Of the larger
units.
