It is quite true that the number of’ cases does not constitutean epidemic suc as caused the suffering and sorrow urlng tho terrible days of 191B. Yet there is no dis ulslng the fact that everyone shoul be on their guard against tho disease. ln Montreal alone, from January 20th to February 21st, tliru thousand, one hundred and Monty-two can: of Influenza and 189 deaths from the disease were reported to tho Health Department. 1f the outbreak had coma st the beginning of tho winter instead of the end, we might a asonably feel that the very cold weather would check the s n-ead of the dlscnse. Iluf coming as t has, at the end of the winter, there is grave fear that an epidemic may occur. .For spring, with its slush and rain under foot its dampness and chill, its constani changing from cold to warm and back again, is a prolific source oi coughs and colds, pleurlsy and ncumonia.

Questions of general interest f0 motorists will be answered in his column, space permitting. lf an immediate answer is deslr . en- know of this arrangement being in U E fiiiiisuiiiplioii (Continued from page ten) ‘increasing per caplta perweek. The possi- bility of consumption arc there- fore equally as great if not greater than the possibilities of production, especially when viewed in light of the potential consuming power of, for instance, the United States. Eggs are good food. Deterior- ation in quality occurs in propor- tion to‘ the indifference with which the product. .is handled. 0n the other hand, consumption varies in direct proportion to tire-qualify of all! offered for salt and the unifor- mity of the qualify received. Borne wholesalers are endeavor- ing to establish brands or marks o! cartoon and case eggs which would establish confidence in the minds of the consumer. This practice ls to be commended and encouraged. Unfortunately, at certain seasons of fire-year the percentage of really fine carton eggs is so low that (either the distributor niust reduce the qualify under his mark or fail to fill a portion of the demand. The proposition more often resolves it- self into how_ much the consumer will stand. A3 a matter of fact, the wholesaler is the victim of cir- cumstnces which alone he is unable to rectify. Then again, when not only each centre but often each firm in each centre has n system orslyle of grading peculiar to itself, it is not surprising that the retailer or con- sumer becomes confused as to grades. Two firms maybe using the same grade terms but that is no assurance that the eggs purchased from one firm are of the same qual- ify as those purchased from sn- other". The quesilon of increased con- cllmplion is u proposition bigger than any firm 0r individual. it s national in hi5 crepe. Wlim is nieded is somethibg destructive something national in its appli- cation; in other ivords. a nation- al lgrnduation and ‘terminology for grades cl‘ eggs that will have ilie united support of lhe business acumen and advertising genius of all distributors of eggs. Canadian eggs are SlfllJtiii/Pllefi‘ but the grades have not been adop- ted for domestic trading. ‘Much publicity has been given 'tu these grades, but without the support of ihe trade in making ihe-ni effective, llie significance of the grade names llllll what t ey stand for has not horn brought home to the cons or in a realistic manner. lndivi u- ul firms could still use their own u} firms could’ still use their own firm brands of eggs but they should be applied to grades rather than to eggs as u, whole. For instance, there might be the “lfnse" brand of "iSpeciz-ils" ‘land the “Banner” brand of "Extras," and so one. that would still retain and promote in- dividual firm efficiency. At the same time, it ls contended that in order to promote nation-wide in- creased consumption, special sig- nificance should be given to recog- nized‘ national grades upon which advertising matter could be based for the whole country so that when a consumer saw the word “Extras" on a carton or on a case there would at once spring to his mind a visualized picture of the quality of eggs in, that case. in other words, provide for the home consumer something of the same system of standardization, grading and mark- ing that is in vogue for the export trade today. Increasing Consumption Abroad’. The reputation of Canadian eggs on the British market has been greatly enhanced during the past year. Last spring, the story of Canada's potential productiveness, her standardized product. her sys- tem, of inspection W113 told in person, to practically every lm- porter ‘in Great Britain. Canada's system of inspection for export lg “based upon inspection by approval at point of shipment. The words, “Canadian Eggs," and the Maple Leaf constitute a nation- al gusrantee of quality. The re- sult has ‘been that Canada not only gold every exportable egg avail- able bul. sold at such a price that she was enabled to do what Hol- land and Germany did before the war.- namely, import foreign eggs for home consumption and‘ sell their own for export. As a. matter of faci, only those who have had ncfual experience in exporting both States and Canadian eggs this past year realize to "the fullest, what a boon to Canada Government inspec- tion has been. Canada lllig a distinct asset and great selling argument in her sys- tem of inspection for eggs for ex- port. The British importer ap- preciates the general significance of this and it gives confidence in buying, but, as yet he does not fully understand the difference between grades. The domestic» trade of Great Britain has been built u~p on brands and’ in pre-wai‘ days brands were legion on Tooley Si. and the London Egg Exchange. Denmark was the first country to place national grades of 855a on an export market. This was first done iiy the Co-operalives and later by the whole trade. , As a result, Danish eggs are not seen on Tooley SL, as much as formerly. They have found a more direct outlet to the egg uiprchants of London ‘and the Provincial towns. Danish ex- porters sfill use lbraurls but they are brands of grades not of 8888- lleiailers and consumers have come A Health Saving i Rblllllldfil’ ,,,,,,., w“, you get the Spanish liilfilenh} ,Miii‘ard’s Linimciit At u» am sign a it. w, rrmi ‘met in London in Scpiember last, toappreclate the significance of these grades, with the result that DIEM! 685s are the highest priced eggs on the British market. 1B0 fur. Canadian exporters have not paid sufficient attention to the shipment of the higher grades. The grade “Firsis" represents eggs of only ordinary quality. “Plrsts" are I10! 8 800d grade upon which to ‘build an individual or national re- putalion. “Extras" have been the highest Brfldfl shipped in quantity. Two-or three small lots of "Specials" have gone across. Canadian "Specials" have, in a! least one instance, made the top 0f the market in London. Certain parts of Canada are more favourably located to ship “Spec- lals" than others. At least one large cooperative association has signified their intention of shipping ‘Specials!’ this year, but having in mind the close proximity of the maritime provinces to England, and the possibilities of rapid transpor- tation between ffalifax and Uver- pool, there is no reason why, with proper enterprise and business man- agement, the maritime provinces a; a whole, and oven Ontario and Que- bec vis. the North Atlantic route should not place on the British mar- ket a quality of eggs commensur- ate with the best that is today sup- plied by Denmark and Ireland. Importance of Advertising. Only the thin edge of (he wedge has been inserted into the possibil- itieg of advertising the Canadian product. if is easy to advertise Canada: in‘ Great Britain at the present time. The name "Canada" stands high in the esteem of the British people, and anything (‘ana- dinn, bucked by quality, is in brisk demand. Canada seems actually closer. to Britain than ever before. (‘ans- dians should capitalize every cp- portunity i0 establish a place for Canadian products at the present time. (funada has achieved n flisllncl national accomplishment in iii» uiarkeilng of her eggs and the slogan should be not only "Eat more Eggs," but, “Eel more (fanailiiui Jdggit.” lBritisli howls-papers wel- come notes about Canada. Backed by judicious advertising, the story of Canada's adaptability for ipoul- fry-keeping. her potential produc- llveness. null lhe story of the (‘an- ndiau egg on the British market can be lold and appreciated in every British homo. The moving picture houses can be induced to help, and nothing would he more ‘l’ effective than pictorial representa- llon of‘ the vuiue of eggs as food and Willi-l. Canada is ‘doing in au endeavor to conserve quality and article, The Government offices will h'elp.~ A complete exhibit of Canadian eggs graded in accor- dance witb the Standurdswith cor- related mnfcrla-l is now being shown lu the principal centres. The fol- lowing is an extract from u letter just received from tbeSupcriuten- dent of Emigration in Great Br~liain:-— , . "The exhibit, of Canadian eggs which -is being shown in our var- l0ilg agencies is attracting a good deal of attention. Our agents are frequently asked for information as to the wholesale price of _Canndian eggs, where they can be obtained, the breed of hens and other mat- ters relating to poultry raising in Canada." - The Canadian Railway offices will help. To popularize Canadian products in England is good tac- tics for Canada, it means bigger business and more immigration of the best kind. To be successful, the work needs coordination, en- dorsation and support. if. needs ex- ecutive direction and representat. ion in England and national and individual effort should be synch- ronlzed. lnovoosed Consumption international In its Scope The increasing of egg consump- tion is a proposition bigger than any one nation; it is international in its scope. it. is to Canada's in- large proportion of their own eggs at home. The pe- culiar‘ growth-promoting, disease- resisting elements in eggs are just as important to ‘the iSouth Ameri- can as to the European, and experi- enced travellers state that the eo- lution of the Chinese egg menace is the making of industrial condi- Lions in China such that the (‘bina- man can afford to keep his eggs at home. increased consumption was one of the chief topics of discussion at the international -Poultry Conven- tion the different governments were asked to name delegates to a committee to consider the ques- tion of international Standards for eggs as a basis for increased, con- sumption.
