Lamb Sale
Planned at
Spring Show
CANBY, May 24 Arrangements
have been made for exhibitors at
the Clackamas county fifth annual
spring lamb and wool show to sell
their lambs on the spot if they de
sire to do so. The show is set for
June 9. - - 1 1 ,
Following the pattern' set at the
lamb show last year, lambs will
graded into standard market
grades. Packer-buyers have agreed
to put bids -on each pen of a par
ticular gxade. No effort is being
made to obtain more than market
prices. Price controls would prob
ably prevent any great increase,
Don - Walrod, Clackamas county
agent, state Thursday; Although
this procedure was also followed
last year a small premium was ob
tained fox the 50 "head of lambs
sold at the show. ;
Packers will keep records on the
individual lambs, and owners and
others will have an opportunity to
see the dressed carcasses - to note
the correlation between live judg
iniand carcass condition. Dressing
percentage will also be available.
The lamb show committee does
not require that lambs .be sold, but
indicates that it hope many ex
hibitors will do so.

Production tip
By UUie tVMadsea
Statesman rarra Editor
While s the average number of
layers In Oregon are now about
four per cent less than they were
a year ago and six per cent less
than. the past five year average,
this condition Is evidently ; going to
be corrected. , ; ,
Oregon baby chicken production
during , April broke all previous
records. The total - production by
hatchers was estimated at a little
over 2.T million baby chicks. This
Is 20 per cent above the hatch in
April a year ago. i
The turkey hatch is also up,
with Oregon commercial hatcher
ies turning out immpwhat imm
hatch than during the same month
last year. April turkey hatch, this
year was L3 million baby turkeys
as compared to LI million during
April a year ago, . ,'w
But until these new hatches be
gin to lay, the egg supply will con
tinue to be less. This will cover
the next few months, 'commercial
eggmen state. j
Farm poultry flocks for the na
tion as a whole laid less eggs dur
ing the past month than! they did
during; the same month a year
earlier. Reports from the USDA
Thursday showed that the total
production for the United States as
a whole amountea to around . OJ5
billion eggs. This is about two per
cent less than a year ago. How
ever, production for early May of
this year is about one per cent
higher than average ior the month
of April. This Is listed as a "sea
sonal increase."
In Oregon, too, egg- production
dropped this past month. The total
production was estimated at 47
million eggs or about three million
less than ior the same month last
year. April's egg: production in
Oregon was the second low' month
for April since 1935.
The number of hens in laying
flocks forthe nation is also down
compared to a year ago. In April
the nation's farm flock averaged
nearly 355 million layers. This is
about three per cent less than last
year and a one per cent drop be
low the average
