Egg Producer
I would like to tell the people, some
thing they probably never knew:
This is to those that has got hens, if it
aint but one or two:
if you want to get eggs by the dozen or
eggs by the peck,
Just buy the egg producer sold by
Clarence Heck.
Be Sure and teed the egg producer, for
it will surely make them lay:
You will get from one to two dozen
eggs almost every day.
When we feed it to the hens, the roost
er eats with the rest.
And now it is impossible to keep him
off the nest.
When eggs are thirty cents per dozen
and you have a few to spare,
You will feed Egg Producer and treat
your chickens fair.
We have two of the largest eggs that
was ever laid by any hen,
One of those eggs would satisfy the
appetite of two hungry men.
So if you want to get eggs by the doz
en, or eggs by the peck;
Just buy the Egg Producer sold by
Clarence Heck.
