It is feared that unless imports are restricted the price will fall to sixpence, j In some parts of West England it is difficult to sell eggs at all. The trouble is due to home produo- | tion increasing beyond expectation. Em- ; wire importations have declined hut I largely increased supplies hare come - from Denmark. China and Poland. |
