Of that amount the Treasury garnered exactly $3,- 000,000, This year the second Lord Cowdray passed away leaving about $2,500,000, and the duties were ground $750,000. “So that these three deaths netted for the government nearly $12,000,- 000 out of an estate that was origin- ally $20,000,000.

The egg inspection staff of the Poultry | Services of the Dominion Department of Agriculture is constantly guard- ing the interests of the producer in this respect. Since the first of the | Present year twenty-eight prosecu- | tons have been conducted against | wholesale and retail distributors in the larger centres for misrepresenta- tion of grade. All these prosecutions Were successful and fines were levied in each instance. The minimum fine under the Egg Regulations is $25 and the maximum $500. The Canadian Egg Grading Regu- lations were designed with one saajor object in view namely, to improve prices and marketing conditions in the interests of producers. In the various activities of the egg inspec- tion service none is regarded as more essential than that of preventing eggs of an inferior grade being sold under a higher grade at reduced Prices. The majority of wholesale and re- tail distributors of eggs in Canada make an honest effort to sell eggs under their proper grade. Occasion- ally, however, in the stress of busi- competition, an attempt is made to gain trade through offering at reduced prices eggs which are represented to be of the highest grade but which really are of inferior quality. There is, also, a certain class of traders with whom such practices are common. If a constant check on misrepresentation of this nature was not maintained the result would be a continual decline of ege prices, is ‘The quality and grading of eggs in The organization is growing rapidly.
