thought 1 was going to
die. 1 was so weak i
couldn’t raise my head to
get a drink of water. I
took . . . medicine, yet!
didn’t get any better, i
was constipated and very
weak, getting worse and

Did you read in this paper last week about a
farmer’s wife selling 17 hens for more money than
her husband received for a bale of cotton?
This little incident brings home to the farm
ers of this state that they have long been over
looking a mighty good source of revenue. They
have always known that poultry and eggs brought
money but the fact was never so plain as now,
when a few handfuls of old hens bring more than
a bale of cotton.
We’ll pay you the highest cash prices for all
the poultry and eggs you can raise this year.
