S. department of agricul ture tells us ther are fewer hens In farm flocks throughout the country this spring than In any years since 1925. Up to April 1, fewer eggs per hen had been laid than In any years since 1924. Fewer hens and fewer eggs per hen. That Indicates a decreasing auppply. - NOW as to eggs in storage.

Again the Indications point to a smaller supply. w HAT does a smaller supply mean In the way of prloes? If you want an answer to that question, consider toe case of onions. During the past winter, In spite of generally depressed marke conditions, onions sold at higher prlcea than for years. The reason faa a small sup ply, due to the fact that for years onions sold below cost or production, and so people quit raising them. As soon aa the aupply dropped be low demand, prices went up. STATISTICS indicate that the sup- 3 ply of eggs during the coming fall and winter will be smaller than usual. If that Is true, prloes should rise. V The rise, if it comes, will be wel- f corned by poultrymen. WACKSON COUNTY should produce more eggs Conditions here are favorable.
