FURROW AND FALLOW , (By P.A,IABAIILN) „ A, new method of establishing , egg price quotations is being deVeloped in Ontario and will probably be in effect by- early Spring., At present the Canada Department of Agriculture is- sues daily quotations from To rento based on a spot: check of sales made to brokers in that -City frOM coniltry points: Of- „..ficials estimate that not more than 10 per cent of the eggs prodhced in the pa:Vince are now--handled,;by these brokers. other„estimates..range down to five per cent.
