sales rep., admiring a
dozen eggs (held by
Bob) typical of those
winning four con
secutive blue ribbons
(displayed by Glen)
at the Penna. State
Farm Show.
Bob comments on their choice of Moyer’s DEKALB ■ “A majority of our eggs
are retailed through our own fruit market and other direct farm outlets. We
must have a good quality, large egg. We’ve come to expect this from the 1'37
layer we’ve been purchasing from Moyer’s over the past 10 years. We also
like to see those production peaks into the 90 percent range!”
