That Boycott on Eggs Shall
Continue.

Chicago, November So.-Across n
table OH which reposed a lonely but
highly symbolic egg. the housewives
OF Chicago and the egg dealers, through
their representatives, met here TO dis
women
The conference lasted two hours. and
there was no compromise. The boycott
will continue. The Wholesalers said the
high prices were due TO q shortage. and
that the boycott might be a good thing
for all concerned, as the abstemiousness
OF the boycotters would tighten the
task of the dealers. who haven't eggs

clared that every effort would be made
10 enlist women throughout the coun-
try, IN addition to the 100000 said TO
be in the ranks In illinois.

Caroline e. Bley, president OF the Clean
Food Club. and leader OF the boycott
at one stage of the proceedings. We'll.
we would be glad to sit with you at
meetings of the Butter and Egg Board

Replying to statement OF John
Mltcnell, president OF the UodEu' lldl
in tho absence OF official figures a
press estimate Of Il reserve supply OF
only 554.000.O00 eggs would give only
six eggs per capita for six weeks. Mrs.
Bley said:
Your argument falls down. You
know there are thousands OF persons
in this city who have not eaten an egg
In six months. If the eggs will not
last six weeks or until tho new crop
comes. why don't you give them to us
at decent prices? We arc not con-
cerned with the shortage; we are fight
ing the high prices, which seem to
be brought about by profits to four
or five middlemen. including specula-
tors"
Eggs strictly fresh" are selling at
40 and 46 cents a dozen, and the wo-
men of ninetyalx clubs OF Chicago

this, there is a Christmas pack
age Of colored novelties for the
holidays, including postcards
and other attractive cards, as a
premium.
Many of our regular subscrib-
ers took advantage of this offer
last year, and to them the offer
is not a new one, but to those
who wish a Chicago weekly
newspaper and a farm magazine,
with the Christmas package, we
say you will miss it if you do not
take advantage Of the offer.

ested are invited to call and see
them and place their order for a
