The current and future markets ippear strong, Roy said, ihough here is indication that large Hockf ire going to be larger, which may ause trouble again next fall. In his age of specialization, accord ng to Bennion, it appears the 'urge commercial producer's op- M'ation is getting larger, and imull operator tend to drop off altogether, though he contends By Legion Group Rpcriul to The Bulletin REDMOND Two new chair men were named at the first gen eral meeting of the American Le gion Auxiliary convention commis sion on Sunday.

He suggested a flock of S to 25 for the family-backyard iperation, 500 or more Tor a faim- r "sideline" businea, and at east 3,000 layeis for the commer :iul set up. The poultry industi-y was ihird n gross income in the United ilates in 153, and sixth in Oregon, le said, indicating the importance if the industry. He noted, too, ihat ewer hens have produced in- Teased quantities of eggs, owing o belter culling, feed and effici. ncy of operation. He cited the in- reased consumption and there ore production of broilers and urkeys in the United States, and loted that the retail price of poul ry meat and eggs had not risen ver the years as have costs of iher farm produce. Better mar- ceting, reduction pi feed costs and traduction of top quality eggs and loultry have accounted for the remendous increase in consump ion, with little or no promotion ind advertising of these commod ties. Roy, at the start of his talk com- llimented Deschutes county on 'laving a county agent like Gene ',ear. citing his interest in the 'wultry industry on behalf of coun y farmers. Over-production last year ac jounted for the poor returns, he said, but added that he was glad 'he Industry throivjhout the coun y had resisted government sup ports. Indications are the egg market is picking up, but the hatches in March, April and May can cause trouble. He suggested Kiultrymen not over -expand. He itressed, however, as did Bennion, 'hat poultry raisers should Inform themselves of the over-all picture ind then make their own analyses. He described the growth of broil- ;r industry in Georgia, the accept- ince of western eggs in eastern markets, and described the oper ation of Oregon Egg Producers co iDerative. There was some feeling Wednesday night that an egg de oot of this sort is needed in Cen- ral Oregon. Roy pointed out that his cooperative insists on top qual- v eggs there is no substitute or quality and that it strives al ways to get the best ppossible orices for producers. His organization signs no con tracts, he said, i adding that any oroducer may join, with member ship, contingent on certain yearly minimum purchases. Producers we still free to market inside or outside the cooperative. He sug gested that eggs can be kept at top quality by gathering often, cooling and humidifying them be fore packing, and said that "wash ing eggs is the worst thing you can do to them." Central Oregon has good soil and climate for the ooultry industry, he said.

The gravity flow system wil) run from the plant to Fourth and I where water will enter city mains. About 5900 feet of pipe will be used, altogether, between the two points. Trenching work hasn't gone as fast as anticipated because of the hard rock enciuntered. . Four hundred feet of 12-inch olpe will be used from the plant to the storage reservoir; 2500 feet of eight-inch will go from the 100,- 000 gallon structure to hook onto 3000 feet of 10-inch, which will hook onto existing 10-inch city piDe.
