Copyright 1081 by Urner-Barry Delmarva Poultry Thursday, Jan. 21 Report supplied by USD A MARKET COMMENT; RTC demand on whole birds and parts is sluggish in some quarters while others report a light to fair call. Advance interest limited and much less aggressive than expected especially in view of sharply lower prices. Today’s L.T.L. asking prices 7-10 cents lower on U.S. Grade A at 44- 50 cents, compared to week ago. Irregular slaughter schedule but overall kill remains fairly heavy. Live supplies adequate. Undertone unsettled. Estimated slaughter of broiler fryers m Delmarva (000;. Estimated 1/211,745; Actual 1/14 Question; Which of the following six lines is most important to today's surviving poultryman? <4/ 0. If you answered F. (the “Bottom Line”) you are correct. The other lines (identified below) all play a part, of course, in making up the bottom line. But don’t catch yourself bragging to your neighbors about peak production or egg size or feed consumption if your bird isn’t the best “bottom line” performer. The DEKALB DK layer, we believe rates with the best oh “bottom line” potential. We’d be glad to share with you some of the facts that make true this statement.
