By Weiglit.
The fact that Canadian er_rgs have
had to come into competition with eggs
from almost every other country, the
British market has made it necessary
to grade the eggs so that they are
practically sold by weig.ht, as they are
graded to weigh 13 lbs. 15 lbs, and 17
lbs to the long hundred -that is 10
dozen. The larger egg's is where the
profit is in handling, ror the smaller
have little or no value in that market,
To induce producers of hen fruit to
raise breeds that lay large egg; the
buyers are about to buy by weight.
This aril' tend to bring all the large
eggs to the market and the shippers
will consequently have better goods
to handle and ship and will be better
able to pay the outside market price.
