Income from broiler production ir Georgia reached an all-time high m 1944, the poultryman reported, amounting to $19,116,000 compared with $12,198,000 in 1943 and $5,152,- 000 in 1942. Cherokee, Forsyth and Hall are the main • commercial broiler pro ducing counties with Dawson, Jack son, Lumpkin, White, Habersham and other adjoining counties show ing substantial gains. The broiler industry in north Geor gia is located generally on small farm units and utilizes labor on these farms. These factors will fa vor this section as a broiler produc ing area in postwar years.
