An appeal to poultry raisers to increase their production of poultry, meat and eggs has been issued by the American Association of Instruct ors and Investigators which met re cently at Amherst, Mass. These poultry experts, in a resolution, state that there will be an unprecednted demand for breeding stock and poul try products, which can be met most effectively by the introduction of im proved methods and better stock management in each flock. The association urges particularly owners of flocks not to sacrifice valuable chickens simply because feed has become abnormally high They point out that such a practice would tend to reduce the supply of breeding stock and lead to serious reduction in output. The members of the association, who are the experts in poultry hus bandry from the several state agri. cultural colleges and the United States Department of Agriculture, stand ready to help all poultry pro ducers to get maximum results.
