BUREAU ADVISES
FARMERS TO KEEP HENS

1t is better for the poultry producers
of West Tennessee to keep their hens
and take the profits on eggs for two
or three months longer and then sell
them off for lower figures than may
now be obtained, the Memphis Cham
Der OF Commerce farm bureau said
Thursday in a warning issued against
OVERRIDING the marketing of hens at
this time. .
Succumbing ito the temptation of
good prices offered by Eastern and
Northern buyers in the territory, West
Tennessee poultry producing coMmuni-
ties are shipping carloads OF hens every
week.
1t is the opinion of the farm bureaus
market director that only the old hens
should be sold at this time, even though
rs and 251s cents per pound is being
paid at the car door, The young hens
should be kept until the laying season
is over as it will result IN more net
profit in the long run, though the mar
ket price of hens may be lower by that
time. Jobbers are now paying farmers
80 cents per do2an for eggs, which make
the sale of eggs exceeding profitable.
