than Werrin, Philadelphia.
Activities of the past two
years were reviewed. To con
tinue the progress made for
the egg Industry, the Council
tentatively developed a series
of plans and projects for 1967.
Committees will report back
at the next meeting in Janu
ary, after which projects will
be approved, and the next
year’s program will be fi
nalized.
Council projects and indus
try activities helped turn the
tide in gross income for egg
producers, the market advisory
group said. Both poultry and
egg income has been increas
ing in the past two years for
producers, even though retail
prices have not fluctuated
greatly.

REMOVE LEAVES EARLY
Removing leaves ua prompt
ly as possible throughout the
fall prevents your grass from
smothering, says Jack Harper,
extension lawn specialist. In
stead of burning them, place
them in a compost pile to
use later as a source of or
ganic matter for floweis and
shrub beds.
Defective stoves and heaters,
along with defective chimneys
and sparks from chimneys, are
responsible for almost half of
all fires in farm dwellings,
says the National Fire Pio
tection Assn.
