The Hen

A Michigan newspaper has this
to say Of the hen:
The hen can't pillow. hoe corn or
split wood, but she gets there just
the same. She doesn't cost more
than a drink of whisky and a plug
of tobacco, but she can earn 8 per
cent interest on $25 in a year and
pay her board besides. The fellow
who doesn't think hen can make
more money than a grocery store
loafer doesn't know much about
her.
Take an old speckled hen that has
had no raising at all, one who has
been thrown out of corn crib.
kicked off porch and chased out
of the garden by a worthless pup;
lust take that sort of hen and she
will pay expenses and make So a
year if properly looked after, and
that is more than can be said about
a lot of cracker-barrel statesmen in
this country who will not stoop to
do anything short of running the
government.

Beef scarcity is not confined to
the United States. 1t is said that
there is a world shortage of live
stock, especially cattle. The pop
ulation of all civilized nations are
growing much faster than the gen.
eral meat food supply. In England,
Germany, France and all European
countries. as we'll as in the United
States, meat is scarce and dear,
beef has become luxury and the
people are calmoring for legisla-
tion to give them relief.
The three great regions of live
stock surplus are Australia. South

insisted that everything must be all
wool and a yard wide. although her
husbands salary was mostly cotton
