EGGS TAKE A JUMP
OVER WOMEN'S HEADS
Dealers Reply to 30-Cent Price
Demand Is "a HaIf-Cent
More, Please"

Storage eggs went up a half cent 4
dozen yesterday.
That's only because the dealers have
got chips on their shoulders said Mrs
Julian Heath when she heard of it yes
terday. They just don't want to be
bossed by a lot of women. Wen show
them. though Wen show them that a
lot Of women is the most important factor
in the egg market We shall not let up
one little bit until they bring the price
down TO 30 cents"
In Brooklyn the women have been 50
determined I'm their resolve not to buy
high priced storage eggs that the dealers
said their sales had been cut in half.
There is no truth either in the story
that there Is an egg famine said Mrs.
Heath. The market sheet tonight re-
ports 10 1861 cases received in New York
to-day. as against $40 cases received on
this date last year. The receipts for this
week were 81, 339 cases, as against 5s@l
last week showing that even the cold
snap has not checked the supply.
These figures represent the total re-
ceipts, fresh and storage eggs alike. Or
course, fresh eggs are scarce; no one
denies that. We learned yesterday, how
ever, that there was no excuse for prices
of 60 and 10 cents dozen. for good eggs
could be obtained at Washington Market
for A cents.
II see no reason TO change the stand
/ took Saturday; namely that 80 cents
is a fair price for storage goods, and more
than that the women shall not pay.
Tomorrow we shall have more women
in the field investigating prices and ind
ing out what effect our campaign is nav
ing"
The scarcity of strictly fresh eggs j;
said to be the greatest the trade has ever
known. Dealers simply cannot get enough
OF the fancy" eggs to supply their most
exacting customers and are Obliged 70
slip in a few storage eggs Just as good'
to fill their orders. Big profits are being
made by farsighted dealers who bought
last week and are now selling at cents
