All of them are excellent assets.

Next wook The Uulletln hopes to

Dear friend:
All eggs are not the
same Just because they
all have shells around
them. Its ihe inside
not the outside of an
egg that counts. Can't
you tell a fresh egg
vhen you taste it? I
can. My mama wants
fresh eggs from the
country. City hens
don't lay fresh eggs.
Fresh country eggs
will cost you 20 cents
a dozen.
Your friend,
JACOB.
