Book Description
Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Situation, Vol. 83: November 1943 A record quantity of chicken will be available for civilian consumption this holiday season. Supplies of turkey, on the other hand, will be moder ately smaller than a year earlier, since slaughter will be a little less than last fall and increased quantities will be_taken for the military forces. 'for 19h} as'a whole, per capita consumption of chicken and turkey will be nearly 33 pounds compared with less than 26 pounds in 19he. Marketings of both chickens and turkeys, as usual, will be seasonally heavy in the last quarter. Even at the record high supply levels, however, the unprecedented consumer demand for poultry at ceiling prices is not likely to be fully satisfied. Demand for turkey, particularly, will exceed supplies by a wide margin. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Situation, Vol. 31: July 1, 1939 The poultry and egg situation in June showed little improvement over previous months of this year, reports the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. Prices of' eggs were at the lowest level since 1931] and prices of chickens were lower than at any time since the winter of 1937. The lower prices this year than last reflect chiefly larger seasonal marketings of chickens and eggs and larger storage stocks of these products. A recent supporting factor to eggrprices has been the purchase of cars of eggs by the Federal Surplus Commodities Corporation for relief distribution. The feed egg price ratio continues much less favorable for farmers than a year earlier. Receipts of eggs at the four markets New York, Chicagp, Philadelphia and Boston have been declining seasonally but continue above last year. Since late May, combined storage holdings of shell and frozen eggs have been above last year. By August 1 holdings may be 5 to 10 percent larger than on that date last year. The number of chickens from this year's hatchings in farm flocks on June 1 was about 3 percent larger than on that date in 1938 as compared with 5 percent above last year on May 1. On the basis of past relationships be tween changes in numbers of chickens on January 1 and changes in number of chicks and young chickens the preceding June 1, the size of laying flocks on January 1, 19110 may be little if any larger than'in i939.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Poultry and Egg Situation: August, 1946 Wholesale egg prices in July and early August failed to advance as much as prices received by farmers for eggs. Large storage supplies in primary markets tended to hold down prices. Wholesale prices on lower quality eggs (current receipts) declined during July, and at the beginning of August were about 5 percent below the end of June. Higher quality grades (u.s. Extras or better) increased during July, but not as much as usual. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Year earlier and will increase considerably until the usual seasonal peak is reached in October or November. In recent weeks marketings of fowl in the Midwest have been much larger than last year, although sales of young stock have been about the same.
