In the meantime, they
expect prices to go higher, because.of smaller production
in the winter.
Purdue reports 84 million eggs were produced in Indiana in 1939 and this year’s production will be in the i of 128 million dozen,
. The three new egg plants will use about 342 million dozen eggs (Seymour 7,000,000 pounds Indianapolis. 2% million and " Terre Haute two million). ‘A case of 30 dozen eggs weighs 45 pounds but when grid only 9.8 poun Roger Budrow Most of the eggs bought in Indianapolis come from a 50-mile radius. New York City buys many of Indiana’s best quality eggs and most of these are supplied from around Mentone, where they get as much as 44 cents a dozen for the highgrade specials and ship sometimes two freight cars a week. Texas supplies most of the dried eggs now, shipping them: by boat. The reason the Government wants dried eggs instead of frozen eggs is because no refrigeration’is needed on boats going to England. It has

If Indiana egg producers increase their production 12 per cent in the coming year, as the Government has asked them to do, that would mean 142,000,000 dozen eggs. That would more than take care of the egg drying plants without influencing retail pri it 3 is done. s JENNY BD. ‘whom Barnum billed as the “Swedish ightingale,” has 8 dam named for her at. the Charlestown smokeless powder works.
