Eggs Is Eggs.

We have yet to learn from some authority bgiber than Dr. Price or the City Bacteriologist of Spokane that injurious germs. may be communicated to egga from external couroos or that they deteriorate through environ- mant. No doubt the food of a hen makes a very considerable difference to the quality of the eggs it produces, but those who are keeping poultry for the pur- pous of exporting eggs on a large scale-even Chiness-may

ba

| depended upon to feed them on the best material to encourage layingand ensure a steady market. Dr. Price's idea of working a Chiness egg to distinguish it from a home egg is original. ILA the so-called Chinese eggs that are being exported require mark- ing to distinguish them they are noi Chinese eggs at all, for it is › pretty well accepted that the egg of the Chinese hen is only a little more thaa ball the size of that of tho ordinary barnyard hen at home. Has this fact not some thing to do with the cheapness of Ohinese egge, and after all, is the agitation against the Chinese product not engineered by those who are interested in the poultry tride on the other side?
