Details about the plane, pilot, and arrival year are requested for the Sun and Merrifield’s 50th Anniversary of Flight note.

Western Roasting Chicken Week in Saskatchewan 1959
Specialized large volume production and extensive sales promotion of fryer chicken and small turkeys in Canada have cut roaster demand. Saskatchewan offers generous supplies at economical prices as dual purpose flocks on family farms supply a cash return and a market for surplus grain. The fully grown Western roasting chicken is high in protein yet moderate in fat. Increasing local consumption will help stabilize prices for Saskatchewan roasting chicken.
