A Corner on Eggs.
From the Atlanta (Ga.) Journal.
From the Rome (Ga.) Tribune.


A speculator in eggs came to Rome last
week, and with merchant hele, succeeded
in bnying no less than | 800 dozen. This
immense number, it is said, were shipped to
New York and to the great Ponce de Leon
Hotel in Florida.
The market suddenly rose, and for day
or two eggs were scarce. The price, which
had been I0c. and l215c, jumped to l5c. and
2Oc. 1t was several days before the Hurried
market returned to its normal condition.
IL is said that a firm in Rome has en-
gagged to furnish the Ponce de Leon Hotel
with several hundred dozen eggs every
week.
A well-known gentleman of Rome with
whom Tribune reporter was discussing
the corner said that eggs could be easily
preserved for long. period He cited an
instance wnere French physicist kept eggs
perfectly fresh for two years by covering
them with an ointment Of beeswax dissolved
m two parts of heated sweet oil. 1t is, also,
said that simple covering of sweet oil Will
preserve eggs for twelve months. Some
enterptising man could make money by
buying them cheap and preserving them in
this manner until prices doubled, trebled or
uuadrupled
