Dollar A Dozen
A dollar a dozen for eggs is al
most an unheard of price, yet some
farmer or poultryman in, this com
munity is going to. get that price,
according to Jack , Ray, at Ma-con
Grocery company.
Here is how this unusual price
is being made possible. 'Mr. Ray
has arranged a novel egg-laying
demonstration in his feed store.
Eight hens from eight different
poultry flocks in this community
have been placed in an egg-laying
battery and the pullets that lays
the most eggs between April 14
and June 14 inclusive, will earn
$1.00 per dozen for her owner.
Mr. Ray points out that every
one who is engaged in raising
poultry and producing eggs will
find it worth while to stop in and
see the hens entered in this local
egg-laying contest.
