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. On Amctica's war
time food lists both are firsts,

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.
