The "boss" hen eggs, of this splendid laying season, so far brought to our attention arc now on our desk. Mr. M. A. Ross brought them in a few days ago with the rer mark: "Here's something, for your breakfast". The four eggs weigh exactly three quarters of a pound, 12 ounces or 4 ounces more than an equal number of the average eggs. One of the lot measures 4 inches from end to end and is six inches in circumference. These eggs were laid by Rhode Island red hens of which breed Mrs. Ross has a lot of very, pretty and serviceable birds. She is justly proud of them, and if she will advocate the sale of eggs by the pound instead of by the dozen, we will back her up. for. as everyone knows, it is unfair to buy or sell at the same price per dozen, undersized eggs from mongrel birds that one get.-> or pays per dozen for larger eggs from well bred hens. This egg question was the subject of a lengthy article in the Literary Digest a few weeks ago, illustrating the difference in the sizes of eggs and stressing the unfairness that is practiced in buying and sellinc eccs at so much the dozen with O "OCT- ? out discrimination as to size and quality. It is quite true that occasionally a mongrel hen will lay an unusually large egg, but this is rather an exception than a rule. Only recently one of these unusual specimens was brought to the Record office by Mr. W. H. Matthews, who regarded it as a curiosity simply because it was laid by an old hen without the least entitlements to distinction or genealogy. We once knew a very wealthy though miserly old doctor who did all the family buying, and to be sure that he got his money's worth when buying eggs, he got a shingle and cut a hole in it about the size of a large size hens egg. When he went to market he carried this shingle and selected only such eggs as could not be passed through the hole. o WATTS JEWELRY STORE Just received a beautiful assortment of Ivory tiped, silk Parasols, rain proof.
