Luzerne County
Crop Spoilage
Can Be Halved
Prevention of waste rf” food dis-
the effort of Luzerne county’s 3,315
farm operators and workers to
achieve their wartime harvest goals,
it was indicated today in a survey
by a leading distributor of Penn-
sylvania farm produce.
At least half of the estimated
$11,708,000 annually lost from spoil-
age and damage to matured Penn-
sylvania fruits and vegetables alone
can be prevented by the use of
better grading, packing and by bet-
ter. and more direct distribution
methods, Earl R. French, marketing
director of the Atlantic Commission
Company, A. & P. produce buying
affiliate, declared in the survey's
summary. He indicated that fur-
ther savings could be realized from
improved handling of other Penn-
sylvania farm products.
“If Luzerne county farmers, work-
ing ‘with distributors, cut by half
the average 10 to 12 per cent of
fruit and vegetable shipments lost
through damage and spoilage, they
will have achieved the equivalent of
a 5 to 6 per cent increase in pro-
duction without any extra acreage,
equipment or farm labor,” French
said.
“Under wartime conditions, use
of efficient handling methods on the
farm and utilization of efficient dis-
tribution channels is becoming in-
creasingly important,” he contin-
ued. “For example, Luzerne coun-
i] ty’s 2,657 farm family workers have
found their job increasing produc-
tion made more difficult because of
the shorter farm labor supply, high-
er farm wages and limited avail-
ability of farm machinery and sup-
plies.
“The latest census counted 658
regular hired hands in this county.
Since that count was made, farm
| 1abor has decreased as much as 59%
in certain areas and up to 36%.”
But despite labor curtailments, he
said, past performance indicates the
farmer can approach food produc-
tion goals. In ten years, covered by
recent government reports, the
7
#8 | farmer had increased his produc-
@ | tive efficiency by 25.2 per cent. The

“Dude” Ranches
Give Color Of
Oldtime West
Pennsylvania's “dude” ranches are
playing host to a larger number of
would-be westerners than in previ-
ous years, the State Department of
Commerce reports.
Vacationists in increasing num-
bers from Pennsylvania and adjoin-
ing states are spending their “week
off” in the saddle, exploring wooded
trails and getting a dose of fresh
air and food cooked over the open
fire.
“An analysis of the numerous in-
quiries received in the Department
indicates that vacationists from war
production industries are taking ad-
vantage of the exercise and relaxa-
tion afforded by dude ranch life,”
Mark S. James, Secretary of the
State Department of Commerce,
said today.
“There is a distinct trend toward
outdoor vacations and horseback
riding is high on the preferred list,”
Mr. James added.
Pennsylvania’s horsey resorts also
offer other informal recreational ac-
tivities such as golf, tennis, swim-
ming, boating, hiking, barbecues,
barn dances and indoor entertain-
ment for rainy days.
Several ranches are located in the
Pocono Mountains not far from
Stroudsburg.
Another dude resort is situated
just a short distance south of Pitts-
burgh, near Uniontown, and still
another is located on the outskirts
of the Philadelphia area.
Near mast Pennsylvania commun-
ities there are riding clubs or priv-
ately-owned stables where weekend
vacationists can enjoy horseback
riding.
Many persons head for these
places evenings after working hours
or, if they are on later shifts, they
are riding in the early mornings.
The Department of Commerce
will furnish upon request informa--
tion concerning the State’s dude
ranches and other riding resorts.

PELLETS—Not Wet-Mash
Poultrymen who used to feed their laying hens wet-

summer months, now use pellets—the easy way to hold

AT ROS,
LISTEN TO THE ROOSTERS CROW!
READ THIS!
Consumer attention will be focused on this season’s
record-breaking supply of poultry meat through a national
retail merchandising campaign for broilers’ and fryers
scheduled for the period July 16 through July 25.
During the sales drive the Nation’s storekeepers will
feature broilers and fryers as a Victory Food Special in
their advertising and display material. Farm marketings
of broilers and fryers are increasing and heavy supplies
are expected on consumer markets during the latter half
of July.
Increased consumption of this poultry meat at a time
when supplies are in seasonal abundance will help con-
serve pork and other meat supplies urgently needed for
this country’s military forces, as well as for Lend-Lease
shipment to the United Nations and other wartime pur-
poses. With increased marketings on the way, prices to
consumers should be attractive to stimulate a greater
volume of sales of poultry meat and to encourage the
conservation of other meats.
Poultry plenty is nothing but good news to the woman
who sets before her family three good meals a day. For
chicken—fried or boiled—is not only good food, but it is
one of America’s favorites for summertime eating.
From the Bureau of Home Economics of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture come the following table tips on
fryers and broilers. Ordinarily, you'll buy chickens to fry
or broil by their dressed weight. That is the weight of the
chicken picked but not drawn and including head and feet.
The weight of a drawn chicken is about three-fourths that
of a dressed chicken. Best chickens for table use are
well-rounded—short and stocky rather than rangy. All
bones are well-covered with flesh so that the chicken has
a meaty look.
For frying—Get a plump chicken 14 to 20 weeks old and
weighing between 21% and 31% pounds dressed.* One
reliable clue to the age of the bird is the feel of the
breastbone. If this is very flexible, the chicken is young
enough to fry.
Since there is an upper limit to the weight of a chicken
good for frying, buying for a large number of servings
naturally means buying more than one chicken. A 3-pound
fryer usually may be counted on to serve about four
persons.
For broiling—Buy a plump chicken 8 to 12 weeks old
and not weighing over 21% pounds. If you want each
broiler to make one serving get a small one—split it
down the back and cook it whole. Larger broilers—split
down both back and breastbone—make two good servings.
—U.'S. Dept. Agriculture—Dept. Markets.
*Men who are raising fryers and broilers under our feeding plan
are bringing them to this weight in from 8 to 12 weeks.
—FACTS—
There's the story in a nutshell direct from the
U. S. Department of Agriculture—Agricultural
Marketing Administration. It is written from
the consumers’ point of view. Now let's look at
it from the producers’ viewpoint. With broilers
and fryers aplenty on the market, the wholesale
price to our producers has mot dropped below
21% c per pound live weight. That permits a
man who has raised a thousand birds under our
plan to make a met profit of more than $150.
We've got a weekly market for 25,000 birds
every week of the year, and the demand is con-
stantly increasing. Here ig a profitable business
that any responsible man or woman can enter.
It’s your opportunity to aid the mation’s war
food effort and at the same time make a profit
for yourself. Come in and talk it over.
