Pity the Hen Who Laid These Eggs, March 12, 1926

Two Big Eggs

Two of the largest hen eggs we ever saw were brought to us this week by Mr. J.Y. Baker, who lives on the Frost place of Mr. W.M. Sanders. They are evidently double-yoked eggs. They weigh a half pound and each measures 8 inches around the long way and 6 ½ around the middle.
