So there, little Boy, don't cry.

But it's all in the game on the Fourth of July,

Abita Springs

Never were there better oppor
tunities for making money in the
poultry aud egg business at Abita
Springs than at the present time.
Prices of eggs and chickens have
steadily advanced during the past
FIVE years. Brollers that sold at
l24 and Is cents, are eagerly
bough: at 80 to 40 cents. Eggs
that formerly sold at 10 to Is cents
a dozen bring 80 to 40 cents. Ac
cordiDg to bulletins numbered 80
and l42 of the United States DE
partmentof Agriculture, eggs at 30
cents dozen and dressed fowl at 90
cents pound have practically the
same food value as beet sirloin at
25 cents a pound, so that besides
proving an agreeable substitute,
poultry and eggs are desirable also
from standpoint of economy, be
sides being an actual necessity TO
furnish variety in the daily diet.
The average cost of keeping one
hen one year Is 81, keeping the
best kind of fowls, and after the
initial cost IS no more expensive to
feed than the verrlest old scrub.
The average production of eggs
