AUSTRALIAN EXPORT OF EGGS.
It is estimated that, in all, about 15,000 cases of eggs, or approximately 450,000 dozen, will be exported from Victoria during the current season. ; Advices from Sydney state that one company there is arranging for export, and has in view a quantity of 700,000 dozen. It is expected that about 300,000 dozen eggs will be shipped from South Australia, and tha Queensland egg pool is also packing supplies for the London market. The lifting of such quantities- from the market should provo of considerable benefit to the producer, as the export season coincides with the period of greatest production in the Commonwealth. Even should it happen that prices realised for eggs sold to London buyers in Australia or shipped on producers' account to the British market are lower than those obtained for eggs sold in the Commonwealth, poultry farmers should realise that, if export had not been Undertaken, tho markets in Australia would probably have been flooded-with heavy supplies, and prices would have declined accordingly. The more . that . eggs are shipped overseas the more satisfactory to the poultry farmer should be the local market.
