BR0ILER PLACEMENT - Ac-
cordlng to report released by the
Delaware State Development De-
partment this week, a record place.
ment of broiler chicks by hatcher
les was set in the state during 1866.
1t was the highest number in the
history of the business.
The United States Department of
Agriculture in it's monthly COM
mercial hatchery report says that
placements in the First State to-
tailed 72,129,O00 during The past
year as compared 20 57,284,O00
chicks in 1855.
This includes only placements
by hatcheries located in Delaware;
some Delaware producers buy
chicks from Maryland and other
hatcheries, therefore, total produc-
ton of broilers was much greater
than the 72,O00,00O figure mdntioned
here.
The previous record for Della
ware hatcheries was estabIi Bhed in
1851 when they produced 66|170,00
chicks. Other recent yearb have
been in the range of 10000 900 to
100000, so 1856 was far and
above the best year for hat cherries
in the state.
