Poultrymen Urge Better Management After Fall Culls
Taylor county poultrymen say many culls in fall or winter signal poor management in the flock. Extension Director Maclyn LaRue notes a well grown pullet set will lay 80 percent plus for months if housed with adequate space. W. R. Whitfield of Town State College stresses sufficient space to encourage feeding, discourages culling to fix losses, and advises keeping hens through short lay stoppages to recover. At Cudahy's plant in Bedford the turkey line processes up to three carloads daily, with many local workers and a substantial government purchase for school lunches. Visitors are welcomed to inspect operations from slaughter to packaging, as the plant expands.
