EGGS. 
Average receipts continue irregular iii quality, 
and choice heat-free stock is two cents higher. 
In hot weather frequent gathering of eggs 
makes a decided improvement in quality. No 
matter how many nests there are, some are 
sure to be more popular wnd occupied all the 
forenoon. A collection should be made from 
such nesta by 10 A. M., and again shortly 
after noon, and a special search made under 
any hens getting broody. Some hens lay one 
or two eggs after they start sitting. If shut 
up the first day, an egg is found in the jail, 
and their Jailer feels that he has made a 
mistake, so that the hen is let out and j)rob- 
ably permitted to sit two or three days more. 
Eggs remaining under such hbns half a day 
or longer in hot weather will make trouble 
for tile seller.
