GSUPPEY, AIDED
BY PROHIBITION, IS
NOW BIGGEST EVER

NEW YORK, Nov. 23-More eggs
now are stored in the United States
han at any previous time in Its his
:ory. The reason. is prohibition
A canvas of dealers and a survey
Of conditions disclose that there were
In warehouses of the country in No
vember 1 4.457, ,6el cases, thirty dozen
to the case, as compared with $780,
270 cases year ago. In New York
city alone nearly 100000 cases are
stored.
An Good Eggs.
These eggs. good, all OF them, are
to be had retail at from 40 to 43
cents a dozen. prices which range
from 2 to 3 cents cheaper than during
the winter OF 1915. Unbiased observ-
ers say these figures are reasonable
and that householders who want to
help the food conservation movement
should eat egg1cold storage eggs,
and now.
How prohibition increased the ma
TONS egg supply Is explained by P.
Q. Foy, an authority. As he sees the
situation. brewers in States gone dry
converted their plants into storage
warehouses. Last spring they en-
tered into competition with the stor-
age men of the East. To build up
their new business they offered ad-
yances to egg men as high as $3.50
a case. Advances previously had
ranged around SO. They got the
eggs. But storage men in the East
soon met this figure, and there fol-
lowed q stage of cut-throat competi-
ton which drew the spring lay to
the storage plants and, because OF
high prices, kept 1t from the con-
sumer. The result was storage plants
piled ceiling high with eggs, with
consumption Of eggs at its lowest
summertime ebb.
Being Given Out.
The vast stored supply IL now be-
ing turned over to retailers as fast as
the public will absorb It. and dealers
insist that, contrary to reports Of IL
legal boarding, the trades greatest
desire is to unload before the coming
of the spring lay. which is ushered In
In February.
But there Is deep-rooted prejudice
| against the storage egg. and while
New York city alone consumes $4,000
cases weekly, many insist on getting
the fresh-laId egg. which fetches
anywhere from so cents to dollar
dozen. Could this prejudice be re-
moved, it is said. thousands Of dol
lars would be saved to the consul
| mer.
indications are that there is no egg
famine in sight; that the spring lay
will be normal IL not greater than
last years, and that prices are going
to rule lower. Fancy eggs. Of course,
will continue to bring just what the
purchaser Is willing to pay.

More Read Improvement

Mr. Evans, the State Highwyy
man, who came to Highland last
week, approved the work done on
the pike west of town, the cost
falling below the estimate made,
and now has work in progress on
that ugly piece of road on the Bey-
erage Till south Of town This DIS
tanre to be built is something like
/ 900 feet, and it is under the suz
pe4vision of j. Hull Kramer, who
is onto his job" in this line OF
work. =
The stretch OF road now being
rebuilt is one OF. the worst in the
county, and it is wis., for the board
to make it a permanent job Instead
of following the former plan OF
thro wing little sand over the
rocks.
Y lille here, Mr. Evans also sur
veyed the section of turnpike be-
tween the east end of the street
.nacadam, below the bridge, to the
Strait Creek road on the Crab Run
side of the mountain, the work to
be done in early spring. A porter
of this section will be built of lime
stone, the remainder OF gravel or
such material as can be obtained
on tie mountain, but it will be
modern and permanent, the grade
being improved, short turns cut
out and back breakers eliminated.

The report of these two we'll

disDroves all the rumors and claims
of bad treatn ent, i'll health and

persistently manufactured and cir

They authorize us to say that
they saw every boy from. the coun-

every mother son is in perfect

est bunch of boys they have ever
seen. All are gaining flesh and are
provided with plenty of sabstan-
tial, strength giving food; the quar-
ters are comfortable and the camp
as sanitary and neat as care and
discipline can make it.
The Highland boys are in Com
pany D., located close to the Y. M.
G. A., and personal inspection was
made of their quarters. They have
been on guard duty, and have the
name Of being the crack guards
men of the regiment. On their

jitneys for running without requir-

up ready for trial when morning
came.

is the midget Of the camp, and
answers to the name of "i3aby,"
while Arlie Jack, of Crabbottom
is known as The Twin" All of
them begin to present quite a
soldierly appearance and are taking

5 These gentlemen made this trip
to the camp partly because of per-

messages that found their way to

having near relatives there, their
careful insight into actual condi-

against future lies and liars. The
boys themselves, when asked. were
at loss to know how such fabri-
cations found their way out of |

two visitors, hoping that it will
