There is; a steady Increase In the
consumption of corn, and each year
finds an Increasing quantity diverted
To uses which are of very recent In
ception. Not very many yearB ago
corn wfta-eo-clveajy-that It was used
for fuel In Kansas, but the ease with
which the markets at home and
abroad have assimilated an average
of 2', 72$, 000, 000 bushels per year for
the last throe years points conclusive
ly to the fact that corn will never
a gall be available at a price that
wltj warrant its use for fuel. Unless
there is a weakening in the price of
other grains, famine consumption will
take up all of this mammoth corn
cfSp, and leave us again with bare
bins, as was the case when the 1909

Although the averagte person haa ?
little rhanco to guard against i>ad .
egg3 in the United States, in
bad egg problem. In that cmrntrw f
there are syndicates which control the j
egg industry and it is their duty to,
keep tcb on the farmers who arc in ?
ilie lia'bit of shipping bad <"ggs to the !
market. The headquarters of this i
egg syndienje. of course. Is CopenKng- |
en. and the members of it are "the j
farmers themselves. The members
of this egg syndicate throughout the
country are provided wi44i rubber
Btamps which bear the Rerial number
of the member's certificate as well as
a number for the egg. Each .egg is
thus stamped with the farme'rV name
on N*? eggs are
accepted taat do not bear a stamp. ]
80 this stamp is p. guarantee of qual
ity. When the eggs are examined in !
Copenhagen, if they are found to bo '
bad the shipper receives notice and '
Is compelled to pay a fine averaging i
makes many shipments of bad eggs
he is jrery quickly ekpelled from the,
syndicate; thus all bad and not per
fectly fresh eggs are either sold to ,
the village grocer or used, at homo. 1
It has been found that this aystem
works adm'.rably In keeping the open
market stocked with eggs that are
guaranteed to be In good condition.
It Is likewise stated by officers of the
syndicate that Very few of the mem
bers have ever been delinquent with
?heir fines.
