An Egg Selling Suggestion 
I am interested in the recent great 
drop in the price of eggs from the pro¬ 
ducer’s standpoint, and would also like 
to see the consumer get eggs in the Fall 
and early Winter at a price within rea¬ 
son. During September and the months 
following until January there is 3 very 
small proportion of eggs laid. It is the 
time when fowls are resting and moiting 
and getting into condition for the npxt 
hatching season. Why do not the cold 
storage people unload their eggs between 
September and Christmas? It would 
keep the prices lower in the Fall and 
prevent a glut in January. It would 
seem to a novice a paying proposition 
for cold storage men and a public benefit 
as well. e. E. c.

Disagreement Between Partners 
We bought a big farm, three partners 
together. One of the partners is very 
quarrelsome. I asked him if he would 
leave his part of money on mortgage and 
get nut. or I would leave my part of money 
cn mortgage on same offer. He refused 
borli ways, and also to sell farm. Can I 
force him to do something by law j. 0. 
Connecticut- 
If you eanuot agree with your partner, 
you can bring an action to partition the 
pronerty ; that is. divide it between you. 
or sell the game and divide the proceeds.
