PRODUCTION OF BROILERS
OF QUALITY
The profit derived from the mark-
eting of poultry at the 2/ to 3/
pound (broiler stage depend. s,
mainly, on the length oftime
required to re a ch the desired
weight and consequently on the
amount of feed which s th
ey consume
in so doing, says A. S. Johnson,
Poultry Division, Central Experi-
mental Farm, Ottawa. Other things
being equal, •a rapidly growing bird
reaching the required weight in
twelve weekswillbe t
a better proposi-
tion than one taking bhirteen weeks
or more. The amount of feed consum-
ed per day 'by the former will be
more, but its efficiency' will be great-
er and total feed costs will be rela-
tively less. Rations have been devised
which are high in proteins and vita-
mins and result in very fast growth,.
One of these is the Connecticut
broiler ration which has produced
birds averaging 3.8 pounds for both
sexes, and as high as 4.2 pounds for
cockerels at twelve weeks.
The broiler industry which has
been increasing rapidly of late, will'.
have to rely on the consumer appeal
which it is able to establish for its
permanency. In the past, the market
for broilers has been developed to a
much greater extent in the United
States than it has in: Canada. If the
situation is to change materially in
this country the broilers produced
for such a market will have to be of
exceptional quality.
Having considered the matter of
fast growth rate, the next question
is, what are the characteristics of a
good broiler? Probably the first re-
quirement is good fleshing. This is
somewhat difficult to attain in a
young' bird and is one reason why
White Leghorns are not as popular
as other breeds for use as broilers.
Probably some of qui crossbred stock
shows most promise in this respect,
especially where some Cornish blood
is introduced. Work at Ottawa has
shown that crosses involving some
Cornish blood have materially im-
proved a breed, such as White Leg-
horn, for broiler production.
In order to have eye -appeal, a bird
must also carry a reasonable amount
of fat. In a young fast-growing bird
this is sometimes difficult to attain,
but experience shows that it is pos-
sible with the right kind of ration.
It is not possible to fatten a broiler
to the same extent as a rooster but
a moderate, even distribution of fat
under the skin produces an attract-
tive 'bird, and also results in more
cents per pound in the pocket of the
producer. It must be remembered
that broilers are subject to the same
grading regulations as other classes
of poultry.
There are many factors to con-
sider in aiming at top qualtiy. One
HAMILTON - WHITNEY
In Northside United Church, Sea -
forth, Mary Lois Whitney, only daug-
hter of Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Whitney,'
Seaforth, became;the bride of C. Ross
Hamilton, younger son of IVIr. and
Mrs. Robert Hamilton, Wingham,
Rev. H, V. Workman performed the
double ring ceremony. The church,
decorated with Easter lillles, palms,
and standards of. spring flowers,.
made a lovely setting for the charm-
ing. bride who was given in marriage
by her father.
She chose the traditional white
satin gown with Nylon yoke, bertha
neckline and bustle skirt. Her French
illusion veil was caught in place with
a sweetheart headdress, of satin
edged with seed pearls. She carried
a cascade of dark + red roses with
streamers and rose buds. She wore
the gift of the groom, a dinner ring,
as her only ornament.
Miss Esther McHenery, Mitchell,
as maid of honor, wore a pale green
brocaded moire gown, with off -the -
shoulder neckline, and a slight bustle
back, and she carried a cascade 'bou-
quet of bronze roses, Bridesmaids
were. Miss Joanne McMillan, Sea -
forth, and Miss Shirley •Bennett,
Walton. They wore identical gowns
of pale blue and pink moire, made
similar to that of the maid of honor,
and Miss McMillan's flowers were
pale pink carnations and Miss Ben-
nett had deep pink roses. Ail three
attendants wore sweetheart peaked
bonnets.
Little James Miller, Stratford, was
ring -bearer. The groomsman was
Scott Reid, Wingham, and the ushers
were Donald Hillis, Toronto, and
Douglas Fry, Wingham.
Harold Victor Pyrite, Wingham,
played the wedding music and ac-
companied Mr. and Mrs. James A.
Stewart, Seaforth, who sang "The
Voice That Breathed O'er Eden,"
and ',`At Dawning."
A reception was held in the church
parlor. Later Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton
left on a motor trip to Washington
and New York, the bride traveling in
a figured silk jersey ensemble with
fuschia coat and black accessories.
On their return they will reside in
Wingham.
of these, of course, is straightness of
keel. Crooked keels, which may de-
velop, usually after 6 weeks of age,
may be prevented to a large extent
by the use of roosts about 4 inches
wide instead of narrower ones, as-
suming that the ration is adequate.
Attractiveness of carcass is also en-
hanced by freedom from pin feathers
and these can be largely avoided 'by
using a fast feathering strain of
birds Also a white feathered bird
will result in a cleaner looking car-
cass than a dark feathered one. With
the above requirements fulfilled, and
the birds properly dressed, a produc-
er will be in a better position to ob-
tain top price for his broilers and
will be working In the right direction
for stabilization and 'expansion of
this phase of the poultry industry.
HANDS I�
TRAINING ... FOR ONTARIO
Learning Business Practice
LN:Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit. of every single
one. of us. Our lathes, dynamos,. drill. presses, farm combines, tractors,
business •machines, etc. are producing goods and services which earn
dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other
necessities which contribute to our secgriity and high standard uf living.
Every single one of us, therefore, has a very personal interest in the flow
of a steady supply of trained workers to industrial planus. These workers
will operate machines which are important to our way of life.
We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government,
industry and labour in the field of employee training. jIn schools and in
factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to develop
new and specific skills in every field of business and industrial activity.
For instance, every effort on the part of office workers to become pro-
ficient in typing,filing, shorthand and secretarial work, willmean
grea ter 'business efficiency will help to make Ontario a finer place in
which to live and work.
