Extra eggs closed ai 21 - centa a doien, while seconds brought only 8 to 10 cents. Last Sep tember, following the long period of drought suffered by the country, eggs acme forward In excessive quantities, and dealers placed them In cold stor age In oredr to keep prices from d dining. At that time they believed tha hM movement from DOilltry farm would not be of long duration nrf that the would have little diffi culty In clwUur holdings at profit later in tne year. neowi". of excessive volume longer than had' oeen expected. However, and when values began to ease off, there waa a sudden rush to liquidate. Recent events are traced back directly to laat September's heavy egg production.
