Condition Is General.

That this condition is general
throughout the country is the assertion
of competent observers. Eastern buy
ers of poultry for immediate marketing
as well as for storage have been comb
ing the farms and villages of the entire
east for several weeks. purchasing all
stock offered. In the middle Whst rep
resentatives of large cold storage in
forests are said to be taking every
thing in the poultry line that is OBJ
tainable: and the same is asserted to be
true in the extreme west.

Time for Caution.

Experts assert that this is a time for
farmers and other producers of poultry
and eggs to be extremely cautious in
disposing of stock. Fresh eggs and
freshly killed poultry are to be higher
this winter than ever before, these OBJ
servers say. and poultry raisers who
hahve shortsig ghtedly disposed of their
focks will then be in the position Of
the man who killed the goose that laid
the golden egg.
Not only is a serious shortage in mar
ket eggs and poultry to be feared, the
observers say. but breeding stock and
Matching eggs will be extremely scarce
and correspondingly high in price
Many concerns and individuals who
produce poultry and eggs on a large
scale. as well as manufacturers of poul-
try appliances. are sending circular let
ters broadcast to patrons and Others
urging that no more stock be sold, even
at the attractive prices offered by buy
ers Hold onto your hens these men
say. even though feed is high. and

ton to reap harvest while short

Sunday Schools Closed.

For the first time in the history of Nor
folk there was no Sunday school last Sun
day and will not be tomorrow. Upon the
advice of DR.. Powhatan s. Schenck. local
health commissioner, the Sunday schools
were closed until cool weather because of
the prevalence of infantile paralysis in
nearby states. Attendance at the photo
play theaters has also fallen off as a
result of this situation. DIR. Schenck con-
tends that there is as much danger of the
children under sixteen years of age con-
tracing the disease in the Sunday schools
and places Of amusement as there is at
the day schools.

Breeding Stock Goes, Too.

Storage Eggs Short.
The Department Of Agriculture re-
ported this week that the supply of
eggs in cold storage at present is 10
per cent less than the supply in storage
one month ago. While 221 establish
ments are holding slightly less than
100000 cases of eggs in storage-a
total of about l4a.0o0.00 dozens-the
supply is already being drawn on
Storage eggs are not far from Is per
cent less at present than they were one
year ago.
This condition is reflected in the
price OF strictly fresh eggs. which has
not been below 40 cents all summer. At
present the fancy select hennery eggs
are selling at retail for from 40 to IS
cents a dozen in Washington markets
and are even higher in Philadelphia
New York. Boston and Chicago. Tre-
mendous reductions in the number OF
farm and hennery hens in the last few
months. with corresponding reductions
in the number of young fowls, is also
responsible in large part for the high
price of fresh eggs.

The farmers who cultivated berries
