NINE CENTS A POUND FOR HENS THIS WEEK.

And it is not because you have contracted your hens to strangers, who pay none of your taxes, and wtyo you do not know. Doubtless you well know. that hens have advanced 2 cents a pound in the last ten days in the Chicago market, as they always do when harvest is at hand, and your home merchants do not try as hard to get the goods at this time, as they do not want to bother you when you are busy. As ever your friend, B. S. FEItfDIG.
