ROTTEN EGGS
Sir,—ln fairness to producer and consumer the correspondents who write to the paper complaining about rotten eggs and attacking the Egg Floor and the producer, should make their complaints to the Egg Floor, ahd tell the heads there the name of the grocer from whom they bought the rotten eggs. Then the Egg-Floor cou'd check up and find out when and if the eggs did come from the floor. We know the answer to where the rotten eggs come from; it is not the poultry farmer.—Yours, etc., PRODUCER. Rakaia, April 13, 1951.
Sir,—A fresh egg lies flat in a pot of water and eggs of -different age lie at an angle from the bottom until a rotten egg floats. Housewives should return bad or rotten eggs to their grocer soon after testing. If the grocer buys a large quantity of eggs at a cheap rate, anticipating the rise, unlucky housewives are apt to get caught. —Yours, etc., HOUSEWIFE. April 13, 1951.
