(Contlnugd from pogo l.) ins of Budapestis fall, Marshal Rodion Y. Mallnovskyb 2nd Uk- raine Army captured at least 29 towns in southern Czechoslovakia along the Horn (Garam) River. reaching within N miles of Bratis- lava and within 96 of Vienna.

Other elements of that army, operating in northern Hungary near the Czechoslovak border above Gyongyos, reported capture oi l6 Hungarian communities. virtually wiping out the enemy-held fringe oi Hungarian soil in all the vast expanse northeast and east oi the Danube.

The Moscow communique which announced this series oi smashing successes disclosed that in fight- ing Monday on the front west of Budapest alone 2,340 Ger-mans and Hungarians were captured.

The isolation oi Budapest was reinforced by a continuing Soviet drive northwestward which reach- ed and seized the Danube River city of Esztergom, I0 miles north of the Capital.

Marshal Malinovskyb men. spreading out on the direct west- ward path toward_the Slovak Cap- ital, Bratislava, 5nd storied Vien- na, still apparently had not cross- ed the Hrorl. last important wat- er barrier in their path. They] and Tolbukhin's men on the south were in positions, however, to move in conjunction right up both banks. of the Danube, on which sit both Brétililava and Vienna.‘ to

First! Keep in mind that an in- crease in poultry flocks is not needed. nor desired.

In i945. prices for both eggs and poultry should follow closely that of 1944. Great Britain desires 500,000 cases of eggs to be deliver-i

;ed between September and Dc- cember, 1945. To furnish these, 9 eggs at that time means the hai- 3- chlng of more early chicks. Re- l‘ hm“ °n a member, this does not mean more chicks throughout the year-only more early chiels so that Drill-ll"?- tion will be greater rn the fail months.

What is needed In i945 is Breat- er efficiency in the rearing and housing of chicks. srevluz stock and mature birds.

bet the theme for 1945 be Qual- ity and Efficiency, Not Quandty.
