"Egg routes” are being established
at various places In Georgia In con
nection with cream routes, for the
purpose of assembling eggs at given
shipping points. At these centers
proper attention to grading and pack
ing can be given so that the eggs can
be sent oft to the best-paying market.
Recent experiments with high-class
Georgia eggs sent in 30 dozen packs
to the city of New York, revealed that
after express and commission has
been deducted, the net return to the
shipper was very much greater than
could be obtaiued in local markets.
While it is not expected that the or
dinary run of eggs obtained on an
"egg route” will bring as much as this
particularly fine lot, yet It Is quite
certain that there will be no trouble
to net at least five cents more on the
dozen than can be found on local mar
kets ‘n Georgia.
The egg routes have been associat
ed with the cream routes, one person
finding It easy enough to collect both,
thus reducing tho expense of collec
tion. It costs from 1% to 2 cents per
dozen to collect, sort and pack for
shipment the eggs that are being re
ceived from these routes. Collections
are being made from two to three
times a week, thus permitting eggs to
go fresher to market than country
eggs usually do.

subject for discussion by the

profitable method ot farming,

ling was ably urged by Mr. B. J.

1 sive methods were supported by

these gentlemen presented some

gestions that willlprove benfical

There’s no reason why a per
son should take sickening, sali
vating calomel when 50 cents
buys a large bottle of Donson’s
Liver Tone—a perfect substitute
for calomel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable
liquid which will start your liver
just as surely as calomel, but it
does not make you sick and can
not salivate.
Children and grown folks can
take Dodson’s Liver Tone be
cause it is perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug.
It is mercury and attacks your
banes. Take a dose of nasty
calomel today and you will feel
weak sick, and nauseated to
morrow.
Dont loose a day’s work. Take
a spoonful of Dodson’s Liver
Tone instead and you will wake
up feeling gaeat. No more bili
ousness, constipation, slugglish-
ness, headaches, coated tongue
or sour stomach. Your druggist
says if you don’t find Dodson’s
Liver Tone acts better than the
horrible calomel your money is
waiting for you.
