Chkken f they ko&) c fiVst Did you ever stop to think what a lucky break it is fot everyone that Uncle Sam can hum a war-time variation of a Mother Goose jingle: Higglery pigglety, My fine hen. She lays eggs for Fighting men! Actually, America's fine hens go farther and do more than that. They lay eggs enough that after three and a half years of war civilians don't know what it means to be completely without them. This obviously isn't all happenstance. Think of the countries where eggs have become as rare as the nam to go with them. Somebody de serves credit. Fried chicken is a mighty fine dish. Fricassee is nice, too. Some folks insist nothing's so good as boiled chicken and dumplings. Not was is! After long months of war, chicken is botfi service "chow" and the gteat unrationed favorite of the American table. Again, some body deserves credit. So let's give a cheer for the poultry raisers large and small. They've responded to war responsibilities by boosting egg and poultry production utterly beyond comprehension. Can you, for instance, imagine four billion dozen eggs? Care ful you almost broke one! It's difficult, even, to get a conception of this industry made up not only pf large growers but of countless small units. Yet, if you think of America's vast wheat lands, the growing grain, the reapers and threshers and everything con nected with wheat-crowinc G ou re thinking ot a compara- le industry. The world's oldest question is: which came first, the hen of the egg? The poultry raisers have answered that one fot America.

County Agent Robert G. Fow ler says reports received by him the past two weeks indicate the turkey crop of Jackson county the coming season will total 150,- 000 birds, double that of last year.' Buyers and growers have indicated to him the output would be that largo, the agent states. It has also been learned that one California poultry dealer firm has financed 75,000 birds in this section and expects to get that many more from other growers. Last week the last of the brooder turkeys of this area were slaughtered and shipped south. The county agent says the army plans to can most of these birds, and has contracted for purchase of a goodly portion of the new crop. Weather conditions have been excellent for the turkeys the past months, with good forage. Livestock Portland. Ore..
