An Indication That Spring Is On the Way.

.The surest sign that we have yet had of spring was reported— Miss Mary Jane' Brown, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. H. L. Brown, reports that she has some chickens hatching today, and that three of them were out already. This is the first report we have had of this kind this season and these are probably the first 1917 young chicks that have put in their appearance. '' ■ - \■’ - ;■
