last July dealing with the 'purchase
and sale 'of eg'g's for domestic con-
,sumptioin An -example of general
interest WAS seen recently in the re-
port of/ one of the egg inspectors
'working in Toronto: The inspector
in question'was asked by a retailer
as to what ;he should do with a ease
of eggs just received from the whole -
:sale, which he was confident was not
acaarding to the grade stated on the
dame. He was advised to lay com-
plaint with -the wholesaler or he him-
self would be 'held responsible for
;the eggs after 24 hours.' The coin-
plaint was laid, and in laying the
'complaint•the retailer told: the whole-
saler that an inspector 'would exam -
tile the eggs in_his attire, Upon pro-

tion of the -Eggs. The retailer said
the eggs Were supposed to be 'Ex_
tree' but that they. were small and
dirty, and weighed only 23 ounces to
the dozen, The immediate removal
of the eggs by the wholesale firm
would seem to prove that they were
willing to acknowledge at mistake had
;been' made.
The inspector's report further goo4
on to state that while the ease con-
taining the eggs was marked it was
not marked sufficiently conspicuous
to ,comply with the' regulations. The
end of the ease was covered by thedis-
tributing firm's brand and oh this
?brand appeared the words 'Select
