A person will do 15 per cent less physical work at 75 degrees and 37 per cent less work at 86 degrees than he will at 68 de grees when he has full choice of doing or not doing, quotes K. G.

The only fair and just method Is to buy and sell tnem oy weight" Eggs vary so in size that a dozen large and a dozen small eggs pur chased at the same price per dozen Eggs of Various Sizes may differ as much as 25 per cent in the value of the food elements j.ur ichori Perhans the fairest way to . ..... w there will be a great : decrease In , tne buy or eggg lg fcy welght.
