THE SHELL COURTESY CORNER Kenneth Seavy, Prop. 1st and Jackson Albany Phone 1649 Egg Production (Shows Increase CORVALLIS, April -Egg production increased during 1949 in the major producing countries of the world, according to the weekly egg and poultry markets review prepared by the OSC extension service from USDA reports and other data. World egg production is now estimated to be above prewar. The 1949 production was about 4 per cent above 1948, and about 20 percent above prewar. Egg rationing in most foreign countries has now been discontinued.

Some of the large feed importing countries, however, continued to control production. The largest increases in both chicken and egg production this past year, were in European countries. A few of these countries have fully recovered from war time deficits. The number of baby chicks hatched during February was on a relatively high level for that month. The nation's output was estimated at 139.8 million.

This is about the same as a year earlier, but is 21 percent above the previous average. About 2 percent more chicks have been hatched during the first two months of this year than during the same period last year. Baby chick output in the three coast states, however, is down compared to a year ago. The February hatchings were 12 percent under the same month last year. Reductions were shown in all three west coast states.

The mountain states reported a 26 percent increase over a year ago in February. This is the largest increase of any region in the United States. Idaho, Utah and Colorado show substantial baby chick increases. These are the main surplus egg producing states of the west, each shipping large quantities of eggs to the coast markets. The United States dried egg stocks are being reduced.

Recent sales were made to the United Kingdom. The amount was nearly 32 million pounds. The price received was reported at 22 cents a pound. Sales of dried eggs together with donations to both public and private welfare organizations have reduced the government's inventory to 52 million pounds around the middle of March. Government purchases of dried eggs, however, continue at a heavy rate for price support purposes.

Over 2.2 million pounds were bought this past week. The price paid by the government is 96 cents a pound in barrels since January 1. The price last year was $1,26 a pound in a pound in small containers. Magazine Claims WASHINGTON, April 4. (U.P)The magazine U.
