 then I have Iieeu ovei'burdeued with 

 •applications for my catalogue and pric(' 

 list of egg'S, Avhile I am not a dealer, but 

 a collector. 



Dealer.s are jjrobably bothered in the 

 ■same way for li.sts of exchange, eggs, 

 etc. I understood this column was 

 foi" collectors. The directory is a goo*? 

 thing, but I would suggest that some 

 distinction be made between dealer.*; 

 antl collectors.

 dealers' Directory, but a collectors' and

 will in the future bear this in mind. —
