within  fairly  large  quantities  are  going  into 
wincing  storage,  mainly  on  consignment  from

At  this  season  more  or  less  eggs  tested 
■  nqbk.  (,ut  of  incubators  are  mixed  with  the  ctu*- 
unno-  rent  receipts.  These  sometimes  pass  un¬ 
noticed  and  at  others  make  lots  of  trouble 
for  the  handlers.  If  they  are  shipped  for 
just,  what  they  are  the  receiver  can  usually 
get  all  they  are  worth  from  the  class 
of  trade  that  can  use  them,  while  if 
mixed  with  others  they  are  likely  to  give 
a  bad  name  to  the  whole  lot.  These  tested- 
out  eggs  differ  in  quality,  but  no  egg. 
even  though  sterile,  is  improved  by  being 
in  an  incubator  or  under  a  lieu  for  four 
to  six  days.  The  laws  about  bad  eggs  are 
now  so  strict  that  shippers  need  to  be 
more  careful  than  ever  about  keeping  the 
percentage  of  doubtful  qualities  low.

With  the  breaking  up  of  cold  weather 
the  movement  of  apples  i*  heavy,  poor 
grades  being  far  in  the  majority.  Those 
have  to  be  sold  quickly  ami  necessarily  go 
low.  From  GO  to  75  per  cent,  of  them 
would  have  netted  more  money  last  Octo¬ 
ber  and  November  than  they  do  now.  In 
an  entirely  different  class  is  the  sound, 
honestly  packed  Baiwwin.  Winesap,  and 
Staymnu.  some  of  which  bring  from  .$4  to 
$4.50  per  barrel,  and  are  in  demand  as 
long  as  they  can  be  had,  no  matter  what 
other  fruit  is  on  band.  Rut  in  abundant, 
apple  seasons  the*  low  grade  varieties  are 
crowded  out.  The  price  range  at  New 
York  on  Western  box  apples  for  the  past 
three  or  four  years  has  shown  that  there 
is  but  little  profit  in  the  Gano  type — no 
matter  how  handsome.  People  will  eat

The  commercial  values  of  farm  pro¬ 
ducts  are  what  they  sell  for — not  neces¬ 
sarily  their  food  value  or  what  some  one 
thinks  or  wishes  they  were  worth.  Hence 
representative  sales  rather  than  opinions, 
even  though  unbiased,  are  the  correct 
basis  for  quotations.  Except  in  cases 
where  quality  is  standardized  by  scoring, 
the  top  grade  refers  to  the  best  on  sale 
at  the  time.  The  best  sheep,  lambs,  ap¬ 
ples.  pears,  etc.,  oue  week  may  be  much 
better  or  poorer  than  the  next.
