Creek, president; Leo Eicheid, ot
icJgin, vice - president, and Wil
liam Kirby, secretary.
me chief topic for discussion
was the outlook for poultry in
Nebraska next year. Taking into
consideration the low storage
holdings and the improvement in
the quality of Nebraska eggs,
general optimism was expressed
by all hatcherymen, according to
James M. Corkle, ONeill hatch
eryman, who was present.
