THE COUNTY
DREHER.
Special to The Citizen.
DItlMIIOIt, I'll,, March IK). Just
two weeks between now and Easter
and without anything unforseen oc
curring to change the even tenor of
the egg market, wo are likely to have
hen fruit at a price that even the
"poor In purse" can indulge In In
the annual egg feast, to their satis
faction. Those who are In the
chicken raising business, are not
slow to take advantage of the pre
vailing low prices and bushels of
eggs are in storage (not the cold
kind) and are expected to bring
forth recruits for the cackling and
crowing feathered army, that serve
us a product that the pure food
man don't have to look after and If
taken in reasonable doses, is good
for mankind, womankind and the
children thrive on It, too. The
chicken Is everybody's friend, for as
a Spring chick it is In demand as a
high class food, later as a broiler and
further along in life, it does duty In
the egg production (wo mean the
hen) and on retiring from active ser
vice, if not too aged and properly
scned, they are a dish fit for the
hungry. How times have changed,
hut we remember well when a boy,
living on a big farm In Southern
Pennsylvania, where along with the
horses, cows and other stock kept
on a farm and a small llock of lions
did duty, scratching for a living and
if In line of good luck, we found an
egg occasionally, there was usually
something as a reward for our vigi
lance. Eggs were not plenty enough
in those days to cut much of a ilg
ure in cold storage, but necessity
is the mother of Invention and in
stead of preserved eggs" in storage,
we have embalmed eggs, fit only for
fertilizer. We are promised cheaper
fresh eggs as the season advances.
There will be but little oats sown
in March, 1011, especially in Wayne
county. There Is still plenty of
frost In the ground and on the
northern hill sides, snow a foot or
more in depth.
