T.Y. AND RADIO PROGRAMS PLAlllE':^ CR A?.?;:;::ZD 



On W.H.D.H., channel 5 this year we featured the purchase of baby 

 chicks for the children buying six chicks at a time. The reason 

 for buying six chicks is that they will grow better and do not get 

 lonesome. It was also explained that the purchaser should have 

 some one that could take the chicks and raise them as they got older 

 and could not be kept in the house or cellar any longer. This 

 always presents a problem each Easter time to the division persorjiel 

 to recommend homes for the birds after they are practically grown. 



The same station ran a program to explain the work of the Division 

 in inspecting eggs at the retail outlets throughout the state to 

 maintain quality from the producer to the consumer. Also cooperate 

 with the turkey growers to promote their turkeys during the 

 Thanksgiving and Christmas Seasons. 



¥e also planned radio programs for W.B.Z., radio. Interviews with' 

 producers as to their methods of production and quality control. 



These programs are in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture 

 and W.B.Z. , radio. 



E GG PROMOTION ACTIVITIES 



The division personnel mans a booth in the State Building on the 

 avenue of states at the Eastern States Exposition. Here we have an 

 opportunity to explain to the consumer what to look for in quality 

 eggs. 



Works with the Poultry and Egg National Board on any egg promotions 

 during the year. The outstanding one is the competition between the 

 chain stores on egg displays in their stores. Prizes are offered 

 for the best display and the competition is keen.
