Royalty, Democracy Rule
At Air-Age Hatchery
Royalty, democracy and the
hatchery business are geared to
the air age on the L. L. Lo 'an
Poultry Farm and Hatchery on
the outskirts of London Grove.
Royalty’ There’s a queen, Mrs
Lois Logan, Queen of the Pennsyl
vania Flying Farmers. There’s
democracy with Mr. Logan, vice
p esident of Pennsylvania Flying
Farmers, president of the Dela
ware-Chester County Poultry as
sociation.
Farmer planes now land on
ground adjoining the original Lo
gan homestead, where bank barns
today house broilers instead of
livestock and machinery.
Fried Chicken for Breakfast
Few are more enthusiastic about
the farm flying game than Mrs.
Logan, who on June 4, 1955 was
crowned state queen, and who,
with 29 other state queens, com
peted at the 1955 National Fly
ing Farmer convention queen
selection in Lansing, Mich.
Homemaking, hooking rugs,
needlepoint fried chicken for
breakfast these are but a few
of Mrs. Logan’s loves. But pri
mary to both is the hatchery, and
association work is an essential
factor in their busines. Mrs Lo
gan is active in the All-State
T oultry Association and the IBCA
International Baby Chick As
sociation.
There was a homecoming for
Mrs. Logan when she received
her crown last June. A graduate
of Slippery Rock State Teachers
College, she taught the first, sec
ond and third grades at Meridian,
Pa, and at Meridian she was
crowned Queen to replace Mrs.
Allien Homan of Pennsylvania
Furnace.
As though a full-time 30b at
the hatchery office were not
enough, Mrs. Logan has found
time to play an outstanding role
in Soroptomist International. She
has been a member at West
Chester 14 yeais, olding almost
In 1949 she was president, and
every office in that organization
now is corresponding secretary.
She is also a director in the Penn
sylvania Flying Farmers associa
tion, by virtue of her appointment
as Queen.
Chicken Barbecue Boom
One of the brightest spots in
the poultry business, Mr. Logan
told while conducting a tour of
thiee visitors, is the increasing
number of chicken barbecues As
a result, the entire broiler pro
ducing region of Lancaster, Ches
ter and adjoining counties is
benefiting tremendously.
Mr Logan became one of the

BROKEN HIP;
COSTLY SLIP!
Every day you permit your
cows to use the barn with slip
pery floors, you run the risk of
costly accidents to one of >our
valuable animals.
Regular applications of Camp
bell’s Skidless Bain “Snow”
keep your barn neat and cows
on their feet. Bam “Snow”
prevents slipping, keeps barn
floors samtaiy white and in
creases the amount of plant
food in the manure. Barn
“Snow” is cheap livestock in
surance. Buy some today fiom

cannot supply you, send us his

first hatchery operators in the
Keystone State to become Pul
lorum Clean, and this is the
firm’s 23rd consecutive year with
that rating.
Holding a bachelor of science
degree in poultry husbandry from
Pennsylvania State College, Mr.
Logan has done much to improve
strains through crosses. White
Cornish play a large part m this
program, with Barred Rocks,
White Leghorns, New Hamp
sires and Rhode Island Reds
Due to the popularity of his
breeding program, demand has
become international. Here
again the air age enters. Air
terminals today may be filled
with the “cheep-cheep” of Lo
gan baby chicks, off by plane to
the western United'States, down
mto the Caribbean Islands, Mexi
co, off to other foreign climes.
William Penn Ate Lunch Here
William Penn, legend says, once
ate lunch under a spreading oak
tree in front of what is now the
Logan Hatchery, enroute west
from Philadelphia. To find planes
landing on one of the three run
ways just behind the home and
hatchery, or to find chicks travel
ling thousands of miles by air
within the 60-hour limitation
might astound Mr. Penn were he
there today. And a converted
barn accomodating 6,000 chicks,
HOW TO PLAY “SQUASH”— That’s what you’d learn if you
played opposite Herb Diednch, Dundee, 111., high school’s 335-
pound junior-year menace. Sports goods firm which outfits him
says he wears the largest football uniform ever made—a claim
nearly as hefty as is Herb. Statistics: Size 62 jersey, 56 pants,
7%-inch helmet. And all this mountainous threat to the opposi
tion is hung on a five-foot, eight-inch frame.

s broiler house with a capacity
of 8,000 with contra! heating and
automatic feeders is a far cry
from the acres the state founder
once knew.
Mr. Logan, a licensed pilot
since 1950, fully believes his Ces
sna 170 is a most important cog
in the hatchery machinery.
