Warns Against Rushing Into Poultry Business Although poultry offers oppor tunities to North Carolina farm ers, unless they've had some ex perience wuh it, they should be very cautious about making heavy investments in poultry buildings and equipment, warns R. S. Dear styne of the State College poultry science department. Mr. Dearstyne explains that all phases of poultry work are highly technical in nature and people entering the work should be well ( aware that fact. "Success in poul try work conducted on any sizable scale is usually related, not only to the intelligence and energy of the individual, but also to the amount of poultry experience in his background." Mr. Dearstyne made it plain that he isn't discouraging people from going into the poultry business. On the contrary, he says that the state needs to produce more mark et eggs, can stand a "reasonable" expansion of both broiler and turkey production, and a "conser vative" expansion of both chicken and turkey hatching egg produc tion. He says, though, that careful' consideration must be given to marketing the products. "There is little use in producing a com modity unless it can be sold at a profit. Therefore, newcomers in this work should carefully discuss the matter with their agricultural advisor." REMARKS A young farmer was applying for a job in the city. After filling out the main items of the appli cation form, he came to a space for "remarks."
