NEWS GATHERED
ALONG THE RIVER FRONT

Hens residing on the farms along the
Potomac both in Maryland and Virginia
are awake to their duty and to the fact
that this is the Lenten season.
Judging from the quantity of eggs
brought up from the lower river the hens
are trying to make up for lost time and
are laying an egg or two extra each day.
The steamer Wakefield of the fleet of
the Potomac and Chesapeake line, which
arrived here this morning from landings
between this city and Lower Machodoc
creek, brought up several thousand dozen
of the product of the industry of the hens
consigned to the Washington commission
men, This heavy receipt has been going
on for the past two weeks, ever since the
market prices on eggs began to drop
Farmers along the river say the hens
bred along the Potomac were never known
to lay much when eggs are selling at
about cents each. but just as soon as
the price gets below 20 cents a dozen
they start working. This may be libel
on the hens, but it certainly does look
like the truth.
The barge Potomac of Philadelphia,
which has been lying at Fort Washing

officers and men at the fort, will COM
plete the unloading of her cargo today, it
Is stated, and will this week be taken to

hundred cords of poplar wood for Elk
ton Md. where the wood will be con-
verted into pulp for papermaking. Many
thousand cords of pulp wood are shipped
off the Potomac to Elkton Philadelphia
and other points in the north during the
course of the shipping season, and 1t Is
expected that shipments this spring and
