Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Industry of Leading European Countries It is necessary only to glance at the imports and exports of eggs for the leading countries of Europe to understand the place that the egg trade now occupies in the commerce of the world. Rapid transportation has made it possible to ship this perishable article to distances unthought of before. So it has come to pass that eggs, which used to be consumed where they were produced, now form an important part of the food supply of our large cities. With Germany and England, respectively, importing eggs in 1902 valued at $27,386,898 and $30,702,575, it shows that the time is past when we should consider this an infant industry, and it is destined to expand greatly in the near future. A perusal of this article shows that the consuming countries, as shown by their enormous imports of eggs, are the United Kingdom and Germany. Roth of these great countries are increasing their consumption every year if one may judge from the imports. For instance, the imports into the United Kingdom, which in 1871 were valued at $6,149,368, increased fivefold by 1902. In Germany the imports increased in value from $17,103,108 in 1895 to $27,386,898 in 1902. The conspicuous position that Denmark now occupies in the European egg trade has called attention to the methods followed in the development of its poultry industry. Denmark was the first country to develop and perfect the system now in vogue in that country, and the principles have proved so sound that several other countries have followed in her steps. The success of the enterprise has been so complete, both in Denmark and in other countries that have tried it, that the people of the United States can hardly afford to overlook it any longer.
