PROFITABLE HENS.
Blocked Owned By Charles B. Hutch
 ins Laid 11,362 Eggs in 1916.

In sending a certified statement to a concern that is offering money prizes for the best showing made in the poultry and egg producing business Charles B. Hutchins, East Franklin street, reveals some figures that are little less than astounding as to pro- fit per hen during 1916.
 MT. Hutchins' statement shows that on a flock averaging S3 members throughout the year and never exceed ing 100 in number. his profit per hen was $337.19. A dollar a. hen is conSid- cred an excellent showing, so what Mir. Hutchins' flock is credited with is re- markable. During the twelve months the flock laid 11.362 eggs, the average price for which was 39 cents per dog en. With other items of revenue from the flock the total income per hen men toned was secured.
