Mr. and ears. Dean will return to Ta-

5981 FOR 081 OZEN,
Mr. Cade. Hooper, who last week
paid one dollar a dozen for new laid
eggs received between the 16th and
24th of December. 981 dozen eggs
for which he paid attt $981. In the
seven days previous, from December
7th to the 15th, Mr. Hooper receiv-
ed only 202 dozen. The increase was
779 frozen. The number of customers
was 441 and the amount paid ranged
from 25c to $19.00. Of the large
number of eggs received only three
dozen and 8 eggs would not pass the
new laid egg test and for them �1Ir.
Hooper. paid only, 550 a dozen. One
man said he read the advt, in the
paper on Friday and his hens com-
menced to lay on Saturday. Mr.
Hooper. had several unique experi-
ences. Tile standard weight of new
laid eggs is 2'4 ounces to the dozen.
One -customer from a distance
brought in a number of pullett eggs
weighing from 18 to 20 ounces, and
on being asked if he would want to
pay a dollar a, dozen for small eggs
he answered "no," He was asked
why did he want to sell for $1.00 a
dozen when ire wouldn't like to pay
it and lie said "that it was different."
The smalleeggs were bought at a re-
duced rate. About half of the ails-
tourers saw the eggs tested. The
age of the egg can be determined by
the air space at the Iarg. end of the
egg. At a week old the air space
should not be larger than a ten -cent
piece, but the space can be varied by
temperature. Eggs as soon as collect-
ed should be placed in a cool dry
room or cellar at a temperature of
from 45 to 50 degrees. If kept in a
pantry or cupboard in a warm room
where the temperature is around 70
degrees, eggs will deteriorate: much
faster and inside of a. week will look
like 'eggs a month old. Mr. Hooper
invites the public , to see the eggs
tested at any time. Does the' price
snake hens lay? One would almost
think so by reading the above ac-
count.

many of 'the elders ,sepent ra most en-
joyable lame .inn, the James St. Meth-
