ink said the Northeast will con
tinuc wo offer many natural ad
vantages to the poultry indus
try Nearness to market and a
constantly expanding market as
population alone the eastern
seaboard continues to grow are
just two such advantages Along
with expanding population, land
will grow in value and will thus
be used more ell.ciently. Today,
he said an acre of land will pro
duce 100 bushels of corn a year
which, when processed, pro
vides 56 pounds of humaa food
By comparison, one acre of
broiler houses will produce 1,-

By 1980, he said, it is estimat
ed that people in the U.S. will
be consuming 22 billion pounds
more food than were consumed
in 1960 What’s more, these
people will be highly skilled,
highly paid individuals who will
demand and be willing to pay
for the highest quality in the
food they buy All these things,
Wentink concluded, point to
great opportunities for the
poultry industry in the North
east in the years immediately
ahead.
An open discussion on what
the poultry industry can do to
improve its public image fol
lowed the talks While no speci
fic solutions were suggested,
theie was general agreement
among both Canadian and U.S
poultry men that work needed
to be done in the areas of in
teresting young people in poul
try career*, better advertising
and marketing, improving tech*
niques for waste dicposal and
the control of odors and other
nuisances that arise when su
burban sprawl engulfs poultry
farms.
Prof. Cavers spoke on "The
Canadian Poultry Industry To
day and Tomoirow.” The story
ol the Canadian poultry indus
ti y. he said, is that of a vigorous
pygmy learning to Jive along
side a vigorous giant. If the
giant develops a sneeze, as a
result of over supply, and hap
pens to be facing north, that
sneeze has all the characteris
tics of a tornado hitting the
Canadian market. In other
words, he said, a 57v over-sup
ply in the USA represents
roughly half the Canadian pro
duction
On the subject of tariffs, the
5c a pound duty on eviscerated
poultry permits some product

200 Quality Horses
Some 200 extremely high
quality horses again will be
offered at the annual North
ern Virginia Horse and Pony
to flow into Canada when need
ed. he said, but there is no long
er any flow in the opposite
direction. Duty rules on eggs
and live poultry aic more no
minal a cause of recent con
corn because imports have
doubled and tripled in spite of
record Canadian production
with the result that retail prices
are currently quite low. The ex
change rate on the dollar (SI
U. S. $ 92 Canadian) amounts
to an additional duty, Prol
Cavers declared Should Cana

dollar, >ou will hear a lot more
