breasts were adequate and in better balance
and buyers noted difficulty m filling needs
at lower price levels. Supplies of legs and
particularly leg quarters were moving mto
bcUer balance at current levels. Wings
were in tightest supply and buyers were
fairly aggressive at the higher price levels.

NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE:
The market tone was unsettled from arei
to area. Distributive movement was fair to
good. A late surge in cartoned egg demand
helped move supplies in several areas but
some dealers were still cautious and
wanted to work with only minimal floor
stocks following the holiday. Most break
ers had adequate supplies and were out of
the market till next week.
