The weights for corresponding eggs in the “Select." class are 15 pounds and 14 pounds respectively. while trade eggs of medium grade may weigh as low as 13 pounds per great hundred.

Hanover‘s Northern League jun- iors meet the Durham team for the first time this season on local ice. As Monday’s game in Hanover re- sulted in a 3-1 win for the Hanover- ians, it looks as if the local sex- tette have their work cut out for them if they intend to register a vie- tory, and in true Durham fashion, will give everything that’s in them to come out on top.
