128 EGGS 



19. At the discretion of the Egg Committee it may put 

 in force two grades of firsts at the same time, one 

 requiring a higher proportion of reasonably full, strong- 

 bodied eggs than the other, and when this is done, the 

 higher of the two grades shall be designated as "extra 

 firsts." 



All requirements for grades determined upon by the 

 Egg Committee must be chosen from those specified 

 under Rule 2. 



20. The classification provided in this rule shall apply 

 equally to hen eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs, but in the 

 case of duck and goose eggs the maximum loss shall be 

 pro rata with the number of dozens contained in the 

 packages. 



RULE 3. PACKAGES AND PACKING 



1. All grades of eggs not storage packed, shall be in 

 new or good second-hand substantial egg cases, of uni- 

 form size. 



Fillers shall be of substantial quality, sweet and dry, 

 with flats or other suitable substitutes under bottom 

 layers and over tops, and sweet, dry excelsior or other 

 suitable packing under bottom and over tops. 



Any grade of eggs not storage packed, which shall 

 inspect in quality according to these rules, but be deficient, 

 not to exceed 10% in flats or other suitable substitutes 

 and tops and bottoms, shall be a good delivery. 



2. Storage packed. When sold as "storage packed," 

 all grades must be in new 30 doz. cases, well seasoned, 

 smooth, clean, and substantial, fillers dry, sweet, medium, 

 No. 1, or other good substantial straw board, flats under 

 bottom layers and over tops. The packing shall be dry, 

 sweet excelsior under bottoms and over tops, unless 

 otherwise specified. 



3. To be a good delivery, all eggs must be packed in 

 30 doz. cases except goose eggs, which may be packed in 

 any style of packages containing not less than 10 doz. 

 each, and duck eggs, which may be packed in any style 

 of packages containing not less than 15 doz. each.
