concerned. Seedlings planted in
this county were primarily for
windbreak purposes.
Most of the tree seedlings were
grown in Cherokee County at the
73-acre Indian Mound Nursery at
Alto, operated by the Texas Forest
Service, a part of the A. &M Col-
lege System. The hardwood seed-
lings were obtained from Oklahoma.
Fourteen different species were
used, predominately southern yel-

last week and discussed the future!
of the Texas broiler industry, par-
ticularly as it pertains to East Tex-
as.
Ttie banquet, held in the Liberty
Hotel, was sponsored jointly by
Purina mills and the Western hat-
cheries of Dallas, and was attended
by Joe Fechtel, owner of the hatch-
eries, and district representative of
Purina.
"The surface has hardiy been
scratched on Texas potential broiler
production," Fechtel and J. Hin-
shaw, sales and production mana-
ger for Western, told the group
Fechtel pointed out thiit broiler
production it) Texas in 1949
amounted to only about 25niiHi<<n
[chickens. In 1951 the figure was
doubled. Cherokee County i^-oiler
sales alone amounted to more titan
two million dollars to growers, he
pointed out.
Hinshaw spoke briefly to the
group on feeding and marketing,
saying that proper feeding and
marketing at the proper time makes
more profit for the grower.
