iear Sir,
: want to extend my congrat

I covered the situation very

This is a terrific problem,
Market Egg Producers!
Get Off to the Right Start!
"The Way the Twig is Beat!",,,
Well, that applies to your pullets raised for replacements in
the laying house. Next summer's egg production costs and your
flocks performance will be determined by the way you feed and
manage your replacements right now. A cheaply built feed or a
poor program will NOT save you money. Only top production,
low feed conversion and low production costs per dozen eggs will
pay off.

I believe you will see more
milk history written in the next
two years than has taken place
last ten years. The milk
hearing now being held in Phil
adelphia may be very critical.
