It ta al*o shown that the grading of eggs has brought a premium over ungraded ege*'> n the eotnpeUtlve market. ThtF drcnlar. whteh Is No. 130. entiled. “The Poultry and Egg Industry of New Jersey." gWee the results of a “rrey of the atate. l&duatry made by John M. J enton. In the Departments' Bureau of Statistic* and Inspection, under the direction of Harry B- Wetas. chief An analysts of New Jersey's position In relation to other poultry producing states Is awo Among other Interesting facts It Is shown that egg production In New Jersey has fro , m U.M0.000 doxens In 1**0 t» ST.41T.000 doxens in 1**5. »tth a *6 000.000 Increase In value. The largest Increase took place In Cumberland County, where the production jumped from 1.40*.(39 doxens in 1910 to 5.619 49. doxens In 1*14. Production In Atlantic. Ocean and Hunterdon Counties Increased by more than one mlUlon doxens each during the same period. While Inerei— tn egg production took place ... practically every state In the Union. Washington was the only other state expanding at a rate comparable to that of New Jersey. New Jersey ranked third in the average yield per bird. Washington being first with an average yearly production of *3.( eggs per bird. California second with 91.9 eggs, followed by New Jersey with 7A.9 egg* per bird The average size of all poultry flocks In New Jersey In 1915 was 165 birds, while the average sin- of commercial poultry flock*, of 300 birds or over, was *33 birds In

191*.

That New Jersey eggs have been bringing a higher pries- on the farm than has been secured by farmers In most other states ta shown tn comparative tables covering the past five years. grade <1 eggs have brought premium over ungraded eggs — the competitive market with few exceptions. Uniformity of size is the roost important factor in the Philadelphia market, while the New York trade requires uni fortuity of both size and color. It Is Interesting to note that the United States from nine dozens per person 'n 1880 to 15.45 doxens in 1910. Prom 1910 to 1*15 It I* istlmated that human population in the United State* has increased approximately n!n< per cent., while the increase of chicken population was about 19

per cent.
