A Dynamic Future
Awaits You ! !
Business-minded poultrymen as well
as poultry-minded businessmen are
essential in the years ahead.
Before you graduate from high school is the
time to start planning your future career. We submit
that one of the most rewarding careers in the years to
come is to be found in some phase of agriculture.
Tremendous increases in population in this
country and all around the globe will continue to
create a demand for more and more food. Supplying
that food will be a major task ... no job in the years
ahead will be more important.
American agriculture, as a whole, has ex
perienced phenomenal changes in the last few years.
No branch of agriculture has had more spectacular
growth or development than has the Poultry Industry.
Whether it is in the field of:
Genetics,
hundred and one other segments of Poultry Industry
the opportunities for satisfying and profitable careers
are virtually unlimited.
Meet the challenge of the future!
The Poultry Industry, along with all of its
diversified allied industries, desperately needs COLLEGE
TRAINED personnel.
You're sitting on a wonderful opportunity.
Plan now to take advantage of it!
