5. I do not dissent from the general recommendation that the produ### high class table poultry for roasting should be definitely discouraged. proposed reduction in rations will go a very long way in that direction a consider that the adjustments in prices recommended by the Conference sho deferred until 1st June. Unless this is done large numbers of young coc chicks that are now being hatched out will have to be killed off as soon sex can be distinguished (from four to eight weeks old) before they have value, whereas if they could be kept on until twelve to fourteen weeks of could be sold as young chicken weighing about 3 to 31/2 lbs.
