Dear MOTHER

Spring Chickens

I discovered MOTHER EARTH NEWS last year when I borrowed an issue from our town library. Informative, interesting, and entertaining, your magazine should be read by all those who are concerned and care about the environment, their health, and the Earth.

I grew up on a farm, and I remember that the fried chicken my mother served was crisp and tasty. The size of the spring chicken, at 2½ pounds, was just right for us seven hungry children.

I’m interested in ordering a shipment of two spring chickens on a trial basis, to be repeated if everything is satisfactory.
