This Looks Like the Year To Raise the Usual Number of Chicks ♦ Don’fc be an in and Outer It Pays to "Stay In” When Others Drop Out While it may not be the year to increase it will pay to raise the usual number of chicks. Egg Prices - Export Contract Prices Raised Egg Prices during the spring period a year ago w-ere on the basis of 31-32c for A-Large. This year the floor price for export will be to the " 3&-40c, an increase of 7 to 8c per dozen year ago. EGG PRICES STARTING SEPTEMBER floor export price for A-Large to ' the fanner will be approximately 46c a dozen. However, there is no ceiling on egg prices, even this year the price w'ent above the export price for quite a period, with a decrease in the number of eai’ly hatched Pullets and yearling hens. We will have next Fall, w,e predict, egg prices will be away above export price, of 46c, for two, three or perhaps four months. START YOUR CHICKS .EARLY—This will be nfore important than ever as eggs will definitely be scarce and high in price next Fall especially A- Largc. Our stajt in the poultry business back in lf)30 when eggs were 12c a dozen in the Spring. We claim we would not be in business today had w^e not started our chicks in February, and received tlje higher prices in the Fall. POULTRY MEAT PRICES—The Poultry Meat situation and prospects for high prices this Summer and Fall has changed tremendously. Three to four ppund broilers are worth 38-4OC lb. live weight at the Farm. With the big decrease in production of Broilers and Poultry for meat, there is a’ big demand for Canadian Poultry for the United States Market. Poultry will be scarce and high in price. For Biggest Profits order and start your chicks early, both for eggs .and meat production.
