(AP) The differential between large or special eggs and extras was reduced to lc. the normal, when an advance of lc was Beared In the latter during the last session of the produce exchange. The 2c advance In specials and only lc on extras during a previous session upset the normal differen tial between the two sizes although the open market failed to follow and continued Its usual course. Receipts of eggs were showing slight decrease generally with con tinued good quality. There remained a good demand for storage, but the hot weather of the last few days was expected to slow up the move ment into Ice houses until it finally ceases. Despite the recent shading of ft half cent a pound on two grades of cube butter on the produce ex change, there remained a steady to firm tone on the open market with former values well maintained.
