regulations the foundation of a more prosperous poultry industry in canada has been laid in the amendments to the egg grading regulation i just announced by tbe department ot agriculture con ditions today are vastly different than they were when grading was first es tablished in 1015 vow because of years of educational effort our aver age egg production is of much better quality than then and marketing con ditions are entirely different there for to ensure all producers both the average farmer and the poultry spe cialist being paid according to quality the department has most carefully worked out the changes now in effect the new regulations divide eggs in to four grades al a b and c al is a special grade which may only be packed by producers whose flocks are under government supervision grade al gives the poultryman who com plies with the government regulations an opportunity to secure the premium price to which he is entitled these regulations require cleanliness care in feeding and management of the flock designed to ensure eggs of uni form high quality and consumers pur chasing eggs of this grade are thus assured of the highest quality grade al eggs can only be packed in sealed cartons by the producer or group of producers or marketing organizations as approved by the department this grade is divided into three weights large 24 ounces aud up to the dozen medium 22 to 24 ounces to the dozen and pullet 20 to 22 ounces to the dozen a grade covers the established trade in fresh eggs and- is also divided into three weights large 24 ounces to the dozen medium 22 to 24 ounces to the dozen and pullet 18 to 22 ounces to the dozeu reducing the minimum weight in this grade to is ounces entitles the producer to better returns for small eggs of a grade quality changing the medium weight minimum to 22 ounces also makes a more uniform spread between weights the old first minimum be ing 222 ounces any word or expression denoting freshness can only be used in connec tion with grades al and a and the word new laid can only be used in conjunction with grade al cold storage eggs can only be sold m nsss ii mi- m vscottjs emulsion rich in vjtam ins

coast of the mediterranean it extends from ventimiglia around the half- moon shaped gulf of genoa to the italian naval base of spezia about which i shall tell you another time genoa the most important port in italy if not on the mediterranean is situated midway on this crescentlike shore it is the centre of the two ri- vieras that on the eat bein known as the riviera di levante and that to the west as the riviera di pontine it is a lineeity and was at one time one of the mediterranean ports which dom inated the shipping of the world in the old town the network of narrow streets fascinate the visitor these quaint and alleylike thoroughfares al though teeming with humanity and lined with business places on either side are clean as compared with simi lar streets in naples and other places genoa claims to be the birthplace of christopher columbus and much in terest is shown in his memory in a little square there is to be seen the re mains of a house covered with a creeper which is said to be all that is left of the birthplace of the great navigator a huge park scheme is now in progress which will embody this little square in a general series of parks this programme will abol ish the unsightly houses that are in the vicinity and will provide a real memorial to the man whom genoese people regard as their most prominent native son genoa also possesses the finest monumental cemetery in the world its close proximity to the marble quar ries at carrara making material for monuments vey cheap many sculp tors have devoted their art to the hun dreds of pieces and groups of statuary

and as it is usually dry it seems to us to be a waste of valuable land we were remarking on this to a friend in genoa who was accompany ing our party to alassio and he told us that the river often

began to fall shortly afterwards followed by a smart shower and in i few minutes we saw the miracle of the filling of the huge river bed down the sides of the hills came tiny streams small water falls and dashing torrents it was al most unbelievable hugr boulders were torn from the hillside sections of the roadway were washed out and almost immediately gangs of men set to work to make temporary repairs the riverbed which a shor time be fore was parched became the recep tacle for a rushin body of water emptying itself into the mediter ranean and changing the color of the water near the shore from a brilliant blue to a muddy gray we were told that the river would soon resume its dry appearance but that for occur rences like this it was a great sluice for controlling what would otherwise be a flood in the city it was a strange coincidence a somewhat aweinspiring spectacle but after it was over we appreciated the opportunity of seeing one of natures wonders enacted as it seemed especially
