Charl Allen Tom es i Broiler Fryers Extra Good Buy During November Tender, juicy fried chicken has always been a springtime favo rite, but Oregon consumers can now enjoy broiler fryers the year around, advises an extension spe cialist from Oregon State college. According to Zelma Reigle, OSC food marketing specialist, broiler fryers are especially good buys during Nov. because there are about one-fifth more of them on the market now than there were at this time last year. Oregon fryer growers have increased their proudction about one-third this year to satisfy the growing demand for the succulent birds. To help the food buyer save money, she suggests filling extra freezer space with broiler fryers while prices are low and saving 5 to 7 pennies on every bird by purchasing whole instead of cut up pieces. "Marketing of young chickens has gone a long way since Grand mother's day," says Miss Reible. "No fuss or muss is required now in picking feathers or cleaning chickens, since they come ready to cook." Back In the thirties, more than 90 percent of the chickens used for table eating came from farm flocks that were used mainly for egg production. Today, more than two-thirds of the chickens eaten come from specialized broiler farms. Use of antibiotics in poultry processing has Increased the shelf PENDLETON NATIONAL FARM LOAN ASS'N.
