TSI s, °$40.00 value '$35.00 value END OF THE YEAR VICTROLA OUTF SPECIAL (Whitten Sbecially for The Bullstin) The other day—it doesn’t matter the exact @ate—d clipped the following solid chunk_of price information from the report of a blg New York daily: extras, Leaving all frivelitles aside, what dc you, as a rural and ingemuous egg-zatin- erer, think of that list of egg-grades? You know that your eggs are white anu fresh and that you're within the “near- by” limits. They are not storage cgss they are not refrigérator eggs; they are good, first quality, fresh nearby hens’ czzs, from cofnded fowls having Tun and access to plenty of fresa piekings. You make ifp a crate of 'em and send ‘em to New York. Do you re- alle smppose you'll get the top price for such eggs? Eh? Did I hear you say, “Wny of course I will?” 'Just try it and see. I know of & hen-man who keeps several thousand white Leshorns of the faucics kind and the purest brceding and the cleanest strains. He used to sena égs- to the New York city market. He sen. only fresh ones, carefully selected as to color and size. Instead of getting re- turns for “fresh gathered extras” or ev- en “extra firsts” he would be paid for “seconds’* or ‘“mixed” or ‘checks.” 8o he went to New York and had a heart- to-heart talk with his ezg-broker. He got the rules down fine—as he thought. And his very next crate ¢f freshly gathered, even-sized, all white. candled eggs was credited to him as “mixéd” at a decfdedly mixed price! .00 [ —— WEEKLY ] jr— WEEKLY seconds, 43@350c; dirtles, regu- lar packed, No. 1, 37@39c; dirties, and poorer, 32@36c; checks, fair cholce, dry 34@36c; Sterilized held whites 4bc; refrigerator eggs, charges paid to expiring dates, first, 39@4i00; second, 34@38c; white eggs, 40@45c; sterilized whifes, fancy, 51@i5c; averaze prime, 48@500; brown and mixed eolors, 33@ 42c; New Jersey henmery whites. cxtra ! fancy candled selections, 78c; nearby and nearby Western hennery whites, averag extras, 72@74e; oxtra firsts, §9@7lc nearby and nearby Western hennery whites, fifst, 64@71c; nearby gathered whites, fifsts to extra first, 64@7T1L dergrades, 60@63c; pullet éss, gr: smallest out, 58@60; unassorted, 576; Pacific coast whites, extras T3@ 746; extra firsts, 70@72c; firsts, 65@65¢; pullets, mded smallest out. 58@60c; unassorted, 7c; other Western ana Southern gathered whites, 55 @67 by and neathy Western hennery brown, extras 63@65c; brown and mixed c gatheréd extras, 59@60c; firsts to extra firsts, 52@58c.” Have you read it?
