Farmers Benefit From Rising Egg and Butter Markets
Twenty five years ago farmers welcomed higher egg and butter prices as their main income source amid a cold wave and water shortage. Eggs rose to 22 cents a dozen, butterfat ranged 28 to 30 cents on the local market, while many in the area noted the sudden uptick was unusual for this season. Sunshine Short visited her parents over the weekend, and Parsons junior college hosted an exchange assembly led by Paul Smith with a large group of performers. A 50 year ago note covered Blanche Freeman’s upcoming wedding to Derritt Barclay in Salina, plus travel notes and local business visits. The passage ends with a biblical verse from III John 11.
