Children's stories, Mr. Smith and chicken 2

Pen drawing, American

A white man with a beard, hat, and apron stands over a chicken holding some feathers with his right hand. An axe is in the ground and the chicken is jumping forward, away from the man. Caption reads: "'There, by gracious! Why didn't you do what I told you? Well, I don't believe there's any money in the chicken business anyway!'"

Johnson, Clifton, 1865-1940
