Show Production Of Poultry High Last Year Production and consumption of eggs and poultry meat was far higher in 1945 than it has ever been, Mr. Karl Frischknecht, extension ex-tension service poultryman from the Agricultural College, told poultry producers at the first session of the poultry school held in American Fork City Hall at 2 p. m. Wednesday. Most of this increased production produc-tion was due to farm flock and city lot production brought on by war conditions. Commercial producers pro-ducers had about all they could do, and did not increase greatly, Mr. Freschknecht said. He said that because of the fact, much of the adjustment to be made in the poultry industry now will come about easily without much change demanded in commercial production.

Poul-trymen Poul-trymen must keep this business in order." Thirty producers from American Ameri-can Fork, Lehi, and Pleasant Grove heard Mr. Freschknecht discuss the outlook for the industry in-dustry and encourage established establish-ed producers to stay in the business busi-ness and prospective poultrymen to get into it if they liked chickens. chick-ens. "If you feel like throwing a rock at a hen when she gets in the garden, then I should say you better stay out of the business", busi-ness", he said.
