Quotations for delivery of. grain when navigation opens are down $13.00 to $15.00 per ton. With an early Spring, and prospects of a good seeding with a higher acreage and possibly only 50% as much stock, hogs and poultry to feed, the feed prices could easily take a real tumble. 2. Poultry Meat Prices Are Away Up . . . and look as if they would stay up. Old hens sell for 27c to 30c; 3-4 lb. chicken @ 37c-40c per lb.; Capons 37c-40c; turkeys up to 45c lb.—all prices alive, at the farm. 3-4 lb. broilers are selling for 45c lb. alive in Detroit in truckload lots. There is 2c lb. duty. There is a bigger margin of profit in pro­ ducing Poultry Meat than ever. Broiler producers are reaping a profit of 50c or more per bird in 10 to 14 weeks. One producer we know of made a profit of $5,000 in 12 weeks on 10,000 broilers and on top of that, these were purchased as mixed chicks. The next lot may be even more profitable. ... fdnthan 3. Feed Prices in Canada Are About $2.00 per 100 Less than in the U.S.A., and with 2c lb. duty on chickens advantages of a big profit.
