Ready to cook demand
light and disappointing as
buyers take a wait and see
position. Slaughter
schedules reduced though
seasonally heavy. Today
LTL asking prices lower on
both plant and US Grade A.
Advance interest very
limited however an oc
casional load noted at 39c on
plant grade. Live supplies
continue heavy and bur
densome. Undertone con
tinues weak and unsettled.
Current Broiler-Fryer

prevents any risk of dehydration. Can be

as satellites to Watermasters 2 and 3.

nector. Several Mims may be taken from

The Bee 75 Waterer:
Takes up less room in the house more room for the birds
It is distribution that counts - more drinking points, for the
same money means that the birds have less distance to
walk to water
Lighter and more convenient to handle and clean
At the end of the crop easy to empty house - one person
can carry 50 to 100 waterers
Easy Connections a) Saddle connector (see inset) b)
Tube fittings (see inset) c) new easy method of raising
and lowering the waterer with hanger box
