The Copper Hatchery closed mid last week after a seven month run, hatching over 402000 chicks and surpassing prior yearly production by nearly half. Much expense went to Elgin area labor and postage. Eggs yielded $16000 to farmers as Schari and Euster Lumber Co secured a building materials contract for a new Yearous farm house on Elkader West Union road for Mr and Mrs Arthur Yearous.
