The production of eggs in Prince Edward Island conunues to increase, reports MLFM. NllhJup. lrvisuu poultry product-l lmpoctor. The quality is good but some grad- ing ststlon operators by including too many dirty eggs in their packs an lowering the high standard of the product for which Island eggs an known throughout the Marl- timec. Thou poorly graded eggs add additional colt to the nil-ket- lng of eggs in that these eggs must be relfldcd and the cost of same eventually affects the price to the primary producer.
