HENS Of UTAH ARE
MAKING A RECORD
They Are Unusually Busy
While Sisters in the
East Loaf.

1t can be stated without e1uNocaiion
and with abundant proof To support the
assertion that the Utah hen is right on
the job at the present time. While the
hens OF Colorado and other states to the
east have apparently laid down on their
owners. thereby largely Increasing the
price OF eggs over that OF a year ago,
the iubilant and well-understood cacklc
of the Utah hen is heard on every hand
and the result is that eggs are more plen-
tifu and correspondingly cheaper than
they were a year ago. In fact, the fresh
product OF the Utah hen has sold as low
as % cents dozen at retail in Salt Lake
City within the past few days, which is
said to be a record low price for this
season OF the year
One of the most prominent hens in the
state. when lnterViewed yesterday

apparent strike of the hens there. but we
understand that further cast the suf-
fraglst question has caused dissension.
The hens there desire TO crow the same
as the roosters, but the farmers are SC
superstitious that soon as they hea1
head off. This is not only reducing The
number OF hens. but is discouraging to
the sisters that remain.
