Priebe, head of |the poultry division of the food ad | ministration, expects to start a cam paign among American farmers and poultry men to sell no hens until aft er the laying season “In many sections of the country,” Prieble says, “because of the high poultry prices that normally come in late winter, farmers sell their he |just before the beginning of the spring laying season. In our present |need for’ increased foodstuffs, it | would be a great mistake for this to joceur this spring. A good hen will |contribute approximately her own weight in eggs and still be worth ae much for food herself as before she began Inying.” | While the tendency of such a |movernent normally would be to in lerease sharply the prices of poultry on the city markets, under the pres: ent conditions, it probably would re sult in little more than decreasing the supply of fresh fowls, For lehickens already have reached ap: parently about the peak of prices that the consumer will pay.
