Of Poultry Council
Having trouble increasing your
egg production, or getting abetter
quality chicken? If you are, these
problems will be discussed at the
State Poultry Council meeting to
be held at Texas A&M College
March 27.
Members of all phases of the
poultry industry will meet to pre
sent the different problems in
their respective field. In a past
meeting of the council, it was de
cided to organize for betterment
of the entire industry through
group action. By bringing the pro
blems of each field into a group
for discussion, a coordinated plan
could be developed for improving
the poultry industry of Texas, the
organizers believe.
Objectives for 1947 for the
council are: Improvement of better
grades of eggs and quality poul
try, more efficiency in production,
and better merchandising.
Adoption of a constitution and
future plans of the organization
will also be discussed at the meet
ing.
