Review of the Week.
The past week has beer an active one
I'm the local market Probably no mate,
has created more OF stir among local
nlarketers than the peculiar condition OF
the egg market. A few weeks ago eggs
were firm the DEMAND was fine ard there
vas every reason 10 believe that the WIN
ter would be passed with the market
steady. Bur things changed. Eastern
eggs came into the market by the whole
sale. the price % ranch eggs fell. aId To-
day there is little activity In the market
So far IS buying Is concerned Dealers
are paying only 15 cents for ranch eggs,
whereas they were bal short time ago
willing 10 give &c for strictly fresh ranch
Beginning today there is likely to be a
lively time In the turkey market. Sew
eraI dealers conceived the idea this year
that IL would Dc a money making EHiEg
To bring in several car loads from the
East Trey VIII arrive today or tomor-
Tow. and with the local stock the market
VIII he flooded. There is every reason for
b iiering that the price OF turkeys VIII
De very low before Saturday. When car
leads come 70 this citY there can be but
one result. People viii rot be able 10 con-
sumo them. and the dealers knowing that
fact Viii struggle 10 get theirs OF their
hands.
