J. Sloan, head of the Poultry De partment of Minnesota University. Part cf these losses were inevitable, Br. Sloan, staces. But allowing for a reasonable improvement in manage ment sanitation, feeding and more effi cient; culling, a possible feed-saving of over a million tons could have been ef fested. Almost Half of Goal Had these savings been made Dr. Sloan points out, they would have rep resented 15 of the protein feed de ficiency during the current year. And had they been turned into egjs and poultry meat, they would have ac counted for 45 of this year's increased food goals set up by the U. S. Dept. cf Agriculture. To assist local farmers in conserving feed, the Purina Merchant of cur com munity has volunteered his services to help stop feed waste at its source. The present protein feed shortage which is Inconveniencing so many local producers could be almost entirely elim inated by a wiser use cf the supplies at hand, he states. Help Offered Free His offer cf service includes culling of unprofitable birds, housing correc tions, measures for improved sanitation such as worming and cielousing. sugges tions on conservation cf feed, and more efficient poultry management in gen eral. His services are effered at no charge, and to all local feed producers regardless of the feed used. Recom mendations are included in a "Food for Victory" Action Sheet, and ara limited to poultry practices which have the unqualified approval cf both state and national agricultural authorities.
