Prices continue to hold at unchanged
levels on light type fowl with sales too few
to report on heavy hens. Leghorns are short
to about adequate for this week’s kill but
availability has increased and it at least
sufficient to cover next week's require
ments. Offerings of heavy hens are limited
for an improved and fairly active demand.
