For some time past Oregon, eggs have- been bad repute in 'the other coust 'tThis, has been caused by the eggs not receiving proper care, the producer- and the shipper.

Thjs feeling was growing to alar-mi ing proportions, and "in fact, got to such a point that all Oregon eggs we're in danger of becoming considered a strictly second class product in other markets. There being no good reuson' why. thia condition should ex ist other than the fact that our eggs were not being cared for properly, it became plainth.at the was. to find some means that would make for better care and more attention to qual ity Dy tne producer and Shippers. promote the egg'and 'pdultry-trade and industry in general, the Portland Egg Poultry Dealers association was formed.

It is composed of practically all the egg dealers in Portland. Immediately after the association organized it decided to establish a standard 'system', of grading eggs that could be used as a basis of trade. Following are the grtCdes estab lished: The grades shall consist -of No. 1, No. 2, and No.

3 eggs. No. 1 eggs shall weigh not less than 55 pounds to the case, in. standard cases and shall be clean, full and i No. 2 eggs shall consist of slightly dirty, slightly shrunken, undersized eggs, and shall' be reasonably, fresh and sweet.

No. 3 eggs shall consist of stale, extremely small, dirty and cracked eggs, that are not leaking. Duck eggs, pickled and treated eggs shall be graded No. 2 or No. 3, according to quality.

All rots, spot rots, leakers, sour or musty eggs shall be considered dead loss. 1 All eggs shall be packed, in standard egg cases, new or good second hand that will stand shipping. Eggs packed in other than standard egg cases -hall be subject to a deduction of one-half cent per dozen.
