There was quite '11 sensational drop in
• the price of eggs -within,. the past two
weeks, And local dealers are this week
•quoting only 40e. They have been up
• to . ooc. With :the advent of milder
weather the helm got to work and the
•tumble in prite resulted. ,Perhaps too
. the etorage men have beconie uneasy
over the threatening attitude of the
Food Board. However with meat, fish,
cheese and chicken feed present
prices eggs ate net likely to toucla very
low prices this season. .
