Some Chicken Business.
'! Mr. <Ira Roberta, a popular -al«i
man in this city, docs quit* a little
business on the Mile, in the way of
keeping a few line chicken*. He this
year had 25 Plymouth Rock hena and
ha* sold all hi', eggs at $1.00 for 15.
He has since the first of the year
sold from his 25 hens more than 2000
e- • . anil practically all «f them
were bought by people v.ho live here
at Mount Airy. In addition to thi
he ha raised a large numl*r of young
i-hicka. Mr. Roberts is a fancier and
I knows the business and knows how
to get results even in a small way.
A little figuring will show that he ha*
made money thi« year by keeping a
few hens, for he has spent only about
$2.00 each week for feed.

accomplished. The meetings have

days, and Mr. Jimison states that they
will go on for an indefinite period.
Msny professions of faith have si
ready been reported and the revival
is growing in interest at every ser
vice.
