TUESDAY, JUNE 29, 1948 CABTEEET COUNTT NEWS-TIMES, BEAUFORT AND MOREBEAD CITT, N. C. Efj Prciucllsa Increases During Past 14 Yean COLLEGE STATION? Raleigh Although fewer farms are pro ducing eggs commercially today, production per farm has increased greatly during' the past 14 years, according to Charles E. Clark, farm manggement specialist at State college. . He said recent reports of the U. S. Department of Agriculture show that for the ' nation as a whole, from 1934 to 1944 the num ber of farms producing eggs drop ped from about 5 12 million to 4 34 million, or about 15 per cent. During the same period total pro duction of eggs rose more than 50 per cent. Reasons behind these trends may be found in larger flocks on fewer farms, Mr. Clark so id. In 1934, he pointed out, 80 per cent of the farms had loss than 100 birds and produced 37 per cent of the eggs. In 1944, 72 per cent of the farms had less than 100 birds and pro duced only 27 per cent of the eggs. Farms having more than 200 birds increased from 6 per cent in 1934 to more than 11 per cent in 1944. These figures, the specialist as serted, mean that the proportion of eggs produced by larger farms increased from 36 per cent in 1934 to almost 50 per cent in 1944. These changes, he added, were PAGE TEtES ' more pronounced In the New Eng land, Middle Atlantic, and North Central States. ."Poultryjjiroducers in North Ca rolina, muiprealize," Mr. Clark de clared, "that larger flock may he made efficient for commercial production of eggs. Aa flock of 300 or more birds will 'utilize labor more efficiently in the poultry enterprise. Particular attention should be given to methods which save labor, such as storage of feed for ease in handling, feeding, and method of supplying water." HE ROLLS UP MILES SYDNEY, Australia (AP) C. Johnson of Maryborough (Vic toria, Australia) recently bought a steamroller from the Melbourne City Council. He drove it the 112 miles home to Maryborough, ave raging five miles an hour and ta king a week for the trip.
