ROAD CONTRACTS The opening to traffic of a ten-mile stretch of new two-lane concrete pavement on U.S. Route 66 last week and the opening at Springfield of bids in the sixth large road contract letting of the year signalized the progress being made on Gov. William G. Strattoh's $123,000,000 highway construction program for 1955. With the completion of this new two-lane roadway on U.S. 68 between Chenoa and Pontiac, motorists now have a continuous four-lane divided expressway all the way from Mt. Olive to north of Pontiac, 158 miles, except for the two-lane bypass around Springfield. The sixth large contract letting covered 56 road projects in 52 counties. It brought to more than $68,500,000 the volume of work up for bidding so far this year. Of this; $50,500,000 has been placed under contract and the remainder is scheduled for early awarding. _j&FARMNEWS Review; Prospects On Eggs, Broilers Prices of eggs are not so high as seemed probable earlier this year. In fact, they have recently been l to 4 cents lower than they were a year ago. But there is still a good chance for' them to move up 15 or 20 cents a dozen by October. During the coming winter and next spring, the average may be 5 to 8 cents above last year. Farmers had 5 to 10 per cent more hens (and pullets of laying age) in July than the year before. Poultrymen have held their laying v hens longer • than usual this year to offset in part the smaller number of chicks purchased for laying flock replacements. Recent 'hot weather, however, has probably cut egg production and speeded up culling. Higher prices for eggs this fall. Farmers bought about 20 per cent fewer chicks for. flock replacement this year than last. Pullets from these chicks will furnish most of the eggs during the fall months. By September, egg production may be around 10 per cent lower than it was ia 1954. Production is then expected to continue below year-before levels through mid-1956. Costs "of feed for poultry are ,now lower than they were last year, and they are likely to continue at these lower levels for a •year at least. The lower feed hosts, together with some im- | provement in egg prices, should I put a little profit back;( into the egg business. | Too many broilers coming up. | JPrices for broilers have recently | •been 2 to 4 cents above year- j ^before figures. This rise has oc- j currod even though market sup- ! ies have exceeded those of a j year before. Further increases in supplies, however, will help to cut prices substantially before the end o£sthe yeap. Record numbers' of broilers will be marketed during August and September. Placements of chicks in broiler areas jpoint to 10 to 15 per cent more broilers and fryers no\y than in August and September last year. The demand for broilers often slacks 6ff in the late fall and early winter. The reason may be increased competition from turkeys at that time. If broiler placements are not soon reduced, quite low prices are likely during the last few months of this year. Good year for turkeys. Earlier this year it appeared that turkey DR.

It provides power and eagerness and responsiveness ^that have no counterpart on the world's highways. Andfow quietly it goes about its work! Even at the full legal limit of the road, the car is so silent in its operation that you can actually hear the gentle ticking o£ the electric clock. And how efficient gasoline is in a new Cadillac. In fact, owners report that a single tankful is usually sufficient to carry this big/'luxurious car through a full day of normal driving. * * * If you haven't yet, learned for yourself what gasoline can do in the "car of cars", we suggest that you come in soon for the most thrilling demonstration in your motoring experience. And after you have returned from your demonstration drive, we hope that ybu will remain to hear some very special news about cost and delivery. You will find, for instance, that you can now become the owner of a new Cadillac after the shortest waiting period in many, many years. And because of our extremely low used-car inventory, you will discover that we are in a position to give you a surprisingly liberal allowance on your present car. You will find, in sl^ort, that Cadillac owners h i p has n e v e r b e f o r e been as w o n d e r f u l . . . or as practical. . . or as imminent as it Is today! Why not stop in soon and see for yourself? We think you'll find a combination of favorable circumstances that will be difficult to resist.1 OVERTON CADILLAC PONTIAC Co. 400 FRONT STREET McHENRY. ILL.
