Some' excellent advice la given to buyers and shippers of eggs In an open letter sent out by the United States department of agriculture. If followed, It would, mean a saving of over $45,000,000 annually, fully that amount of waste being the result of Improper handling, or due to small eggs, cracked and broken eggs, dirty, stale, batched or rotten eggs. This loss, It will readily be seen, is felt by considers , and producers alike, and It la a matter of Interest to all to see that eggs are carefully mar keted and properly bandied. The gov ernment offers the following sugges tions: ' "Encourage the production of largo eggs. This can be accomplished by keeping pure bred, 'general purpose' breed of fowls, batching only the egg I that weigh at least two ounces apiece and from only the most vigorous tock. ' ' "A year-around observation of New Tork egg receipts showed that over 12 per cent were dirty shelled, and sold for a lower price on this account. If one nest Is provided tor each six bens. In a cool, dark place, kept clean and Termln free, dirty eggs will be reduced to a minimum. "More than ten per cent of the eggs received In New York during the year are 'seconds' because they are stale. Tell your egg men that gathering the eggs every afternoon, or twice dally In bot.br murky weather keeping them In a cool, clean, dry place until mar keted, and marketing at least once a week and more frequently In the sum mer time, will reduce the number of stale eggs greatly. "Can you convince your trade that eggs from stolen Debts and from In cubators are never fit for sale? If the farmer thinks they are good, reliable food urge him to eat them at home. For, since the egg buyer can afford to pay more for large, clean, fresh, whole shelled eggs. It Is good business for the farmer to use small, dirty, crack ed eggs at home." The letter closes with directions to the packing bouses as to tlw best means of handling eggs before ship ment am) during transit. The letter might have given some valuable hints as to keeping the price of eggs from soaring above the beads of the consumers during the winter months, but we should be thankful for small favors. , ' Flat round capg and the half yard rolling collar are to be discarded by the navy department.
