cheese were consistently higher during 1937 and 4he total value of dairy products is expected to amount to about 97000- 000 as against 91000000 in 1936 pro duction of creamery butter in the first 11 months as compared with the same period last year declined from sljflbjooo pounds to 75008000 pounds representing a decrease of 6j per wit and due chiefly to the diver sion of milk from creameries to cheese factories and evaporated milk plants the output of cheese on the other hand rose from 85991000 pounds to 91350000 pounds- for a gain of 6x per cent and exports of this commodity to the united kingdom were consider ably higher wholesale prices ot but ter to date have averaged about 25c per pound more than a year ago and cheese prices about 12 cents greater the quantity of milk purchased by concentrated milk plants shows a sub stantial rise owing to a keen domes tic and export demand for manufac tured products the output of which has increased by approximately 35 per cent prices to

with proper equip ment can handle chicks in midwin ter with as little mortality as with april chicks he may not get as high percentage hatch as later on but 3ven the hatchability of eggs is being con trolled by the feed january chicks will cost more as eggs are higher priced to start with then it will take more fuel than with spring brooding but there is more time for looking after the chicks there may be less disease and mortality broilers will catch a high market and pullets ahould be laying early in the fall of even in late summer when egg prices are at their peak of course if many started hatching all their chicks in january the higher prices for broil ers wotihtbe wiped out and chicks batched at some other season would find the best market brooder bouses unsutted tor prolonged
