OLD-TIME YANKEE THRIFT.-H. c..
Enquirer man about Yankee thrift.
1.-The Yankee of the past. the old
school Yankee" he said, was so
thrifty that he could literally make
something out of nothing; he could
literally create property where none
existed
'In West Overton, where I was
born, there used to live an old Yam
kee. This veteran conducted a big
business in eggs and chickens. I
asked him one day how his business
started, and the answer he gave me
afforded good example Of the
Yankees thrifty genius.
He said that, having little to do
one summer he borrowed from a
neighbor a sitting hen, or clucker,
along with a dozen eggs.
"He set the hen on the eggs, and
she Matched them all out Thus he
was the possessor of dozen chick
ems.
But he had still the borrowed
eggs to return. After thinking the
matter out he kept the hen till she
had laid twelve eggs. Then he re-
turned her along with the twelve
eggs to the owner.
"Thus out of nothing, out Of alb
solutely nothing. the Yankee created
property Of twelve chickens, which
gradually developed into the finest
chicken farm West Overton had ever
seem"
