NATIONAL CAMPAIGN BEGUN
AGAINST HIGH EGG PRICE

A great national campaign is unde'
way to beat down the price Of eggs a.
a means for reducing the high cost ol
living, and in all the markets of the
country the movement is having soml
effect.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2l.-That the
butter and egg committees Of the Pro
duce exchange Of Los Angeles will be
abolished at a meeting Of the board
of directors Monday is the declaration
of several produce dealers.
If the committees are abolished no
more "official" prices will be made
and only the actual sales made on the
exchange will be quoted. This will
make strong competition between
the dealers and may result in lower
egg prices throughout the year, deal
ers say. 1t is rumOred that this ac-
ton will be taken rather than have
any trouble with city officials, who
have threatened to prosecute the but :
ter and egg committee.
a number Of eastern cities have
abolished their butter and egg com
mittees. The wholesale prices of bu.-
ter and eggs will be made by each
firm. Los Angeles dealers follow the
action taken in the east.
The egg committee Of the produce
exchange yesterday was forced to cut
the wholesale price of local ranch eggs
2 cents dozen to Sc cents. The San
Francisco market declined Tuesday TO
2 cents below the local market and
northern dealers threaten to send thei"
eggs here and underseIl this market.
The , cent drop of yesterday will keep
the northern eggs from competing
with the local ranch eggs.
Yesterdays cut in the wholesale
price should bring the retail price
down to 10 to Is cents a dozen for the
best local ranch eggs.
CHICAGO. Dec. 21.-ChicagO's club
women became egg merchants today.
They planned to sell million eggs al

Of their stores with signs offering eggs
at 22 cents dozen, cents less than
the price asked by the women. The
grocers advertised their product as
"guaranteed April eggs the same
quality SOLD by the women.
Mrs. John C. Bley, president Of the
Chicago Clean Food club, said reports
from different selling stations showed
the campaign had proved a success.
The public sale had little if any ef-
fect on the wholesale price Of the pro-
duct There was all advance Of a half
cent q dozen for strictly fresh eggs
while the price Of storage eggs re
manned the same.

Fishermen never know when

Herring fishing is done only at
night. The darker the night, the
better is the catch. Sometimes
several thousand boats come out
to meet us. Each one has torch

that must look.
We are small creatures, but we

The poorest person can usually
afford to buy herring,
We are often called 'the king

food for so many people. Whole
