Dearstyne, Head of North Carolina State College Poultry Department WNU Service. 1 Poultrymen who keep records ol their flocks will stand a better chance of making a profit in spite of high feed prices. With a record, the poultryman can find the weak points in his flock management when profit! are low and thus determine what to do to remedy the situation.
