Keystone Hybrids
IS THE SMALL FLOCKOWNER GETTING
HIS PULLET CHICKS AT THE SAME PRICE
AS THE BIG “EGG FACTORY” OPERATOR?
WELL, USUALLY NOT.
BUT HE CAN IF HE ORDERS HIS CHICKS
FROM US. BECAUSE WE CATER TO THE
SMALL AND MIDDLE-SIZED POULTRYMEN.
And not only do we keep the price down, but we
also give them a “top-notch” pullet that can perform with
the best in the land, regardless of how high a price.
Our K-1700 Hybiids have been field-tested and en
tered in the Pa. Lading Test over the past two years and
thej came through with a very high performance.
Test a sample pen of K-1700 Hybrids against a pen of
Hylines, DeKalbs, Babcocks, Shavers, Kimbers, Garbers,
Ghostleys or any other pullets of your choice.
FIGURE for YOURSELF, THINK for YOURSELF
and then make your OWN decision.

The primary basis for suc

a good management program.
With emphasis placed on hab

temp etc) stocking methods,
desirable species, reproduc

ply vs. population, says Samuel
W Hall, District Fish Warden.
Among goals listed for* 1967,
the commission’ plans to about
match the 1966 figures, but
gives no estimate as to whether
the 192,749 fish planted in the
past year will be increabed,
or decreased. Hal states that
the quantity will vary widely
from year to year due to the
