PROSPECTS FOR CHEAP EGGS
IN JUNE ARE ANYTHING
BUT ENCOURAGING.

There is anything but encourag cement
in the outlook for a cheap egg market
in June. Already, dealers are begin
ming to get interested in what promises
TO be one of the most unusual egg mar
kets ever experienced at that time of
the year, and that it Will be a record
breaker for high prices is assured.
For practically three weeks eggs have
been selling at from 10 to 20 cents a
dozen wholesale. This price is 4 cents
higher than the quotation which was
in effect a year ago. Cold storage
packers have made n combined effort
TO force the price down. but to no ef-
feet.
The high price now prevailing not
only assures an unusually high price
on storage eggs next fall and winter,
but it is believed II will continue until
June. when eggs, as rule, on account
Of scarcity, always become more ex-
pensive than at any time between the
months of February and November.
With the 20-cent quotation as start
ing point, eggs may advance TO con-
siderably more than 30 cents.
Wherever the price may stop. it is
believed il will be fully OF . cents
higher than in June a year ago.

CHARMS OF WAGNER
GIVEN BY DAAROSCH
New York Symphony in
Notable Concert at New
National Theater.

Walter Damrosch and the New York
Symphony Orchestra, with assisting
artists, have again succeeded in en-
phasizing old and new beauties in the
wonderful works Of Richard Wagner,
and if these efforts continue throughout
subsequent seasons it Is likely all pref
udice against the famous German COM
poser win have been eliminated-at
least from among music lovers.
Mr.. Damrosch and the orchestra gave
notable concert in the new National
Theater yesterday afternoon, comprising
exclusively the works of Wagner. As
sisting the orchestra were Nine Cor
inne Rider-Kelsey, soprano; Miss Ne
vada Van De Veer, contralto; Reed
Miller. tenor; Gustav HoImquist, bass,
and Alexander SasIavsky, vioIinist.
Nine. Rider-Kelsey is we'll known
here, having frequently appeared be-
fore the public. She was given a cor
dial greeting yesterday. and her singing
Of ''Elsa's Dream from "I.ohengrin''
was particularly effective feature Of
the program.
One of the genuine hits Of the after
noon was made by Mr.. Saslavsky in
his beautiful reading of the Good Fri
day Spell from "ParsifaL" The beauty
and delicacy of his tone and the splendid
insight into the composition shown by
him gave the number a conspicuous
place among the work of viOlinists who
have been heard here this season
The familiar Song of the Evening
Star" was sung by Mr.. Holmquist, and
Miss Van De Veer sang the Lament
OF the Rhine MaidenSi' with Nine.
Rider-Kelsey.
The orchestra has never played better
than It did under the direction of Mr.
Damrosch yesterday afternoon. and in
view Of the wide popularity here Of the
orchestra the statement means much.
Mr.. Damrosch has an international rep
utation as a Wagnerian conductor, and
in his easy grace and charming lack of
sheatricalism he brought out many rare
beauties in the prOgrOm which he had
specially arranged.

PLAY DAPTATION
Of NEAR FAILURE
Miss Cahill's New Piece
Taken From the French
La Papillon."

when Marie Cahill needed a new play
for the present season she remembered
seeing a French farce called La Pa
pillon" two years ago in Paris, while
on her summer vacation, and thought it
might be made into a musical comedy
that would be acceptable to American
audiences.
ArranCeme nts were therefore made
with the authors. Rene Peter and Rob-
ert Danceny, to use the ground work
of their play for Miss CahiIl. It was
then turned over to George V. Hobart
who constructed from II Miss Cahill S
present vehicle, THE Boys and Betty"
after which it was set to music by Silvio
Helm
OF course, royalties had to be paid to
the French authors. and they have been
coming so regularly and in such
amounts that the owners of Ia Pa
pillon" have begun to think seriously
that the American version must have
been much better than their own, which
was only moderately remunerative.
Consequently. they have made a prop
Osition in a letter to Manager y. V
Arthur for the French rights of the
American version of their own play
and intend putting il on in Paris this
coming summer.

SAVES TIRED SEAMSTRESS.

No matter how much a woman may
like to sew, she often gets very tired
OF the work, especially when there are
just a few more stitches needed to
complete an article. This is true of the
busy mother who is always planning
for the making Of something else be-
fore the garment in hand is finished.
BY such a woman a helpful hint is ap-
preciated. For instance, when making
a corset cover, II takes time to cut
and torn in the edges of material for
casing through which 10 run the rib
bon necessa rtly. used At the waist line
of the article. A piece Of strong tape
Of sufficient width will not have TO
be turned in. but merely TO be sewn
along each edge on the sewing ma
chine and used as a casing.

BEWARE THE CURRANT BUSH

Many gardens have within them a
border OF currant and gooseberry
bushes. generally next to the fence.
This IS wrong. There should be a
separate border for these, away from
the garden proper, as they send out,
in the course Of five or six years, i'm
mensely long roots. which rob the ad-
jaCent soil TO a border of these bushes.
Also. another reason for their being
planted out by themselves is that they
should be worked and fertilized like
any other crop, in order to get best
results. This care cannot be given
them to advantage in the garden and
the result is that the berries get
smaller from year 70 year until they
become little more than skin and
seeds.
