WEATHER AFFECTS
THE EGG MARKET
Utah Product Coming in More Freely
and Price Drops.
POULTRY STILL PLENTIFUL
GOOD SUPPLY OF VEGETABLES
AND FRUITS IN STOCK.

The mild weather has affected the egg
market considerably and the wholesale
price OF cgEs has been reduced twice
within the last two weeks Utah eggs
are coming in more freely and some of
the dealers have been getting good sup
ply from the southern part of the state
regularly. The price quoted on the Utah
stock has been as high as 50 a case. but
the eggs are now being sold as low as
$50 Eastern eggs still supply the mar
ket' but the importers have cut the
wholesale price 10 S6.75 and 81 The deal
ers seem TO be anxious TO get their pres
ent stock off their hands, but it is not
likely that there will be reduction in
1eJaii prices. \ cold spell is looked for
next month and the dealers declare that
eggs Will be scarce for some time.
Poultry is coming in pIentifuIy. but
no changes have been MADE in the retail
prices. The fish market was well sup
pred yesterday. but the prices remained
