Sheet 4 to Appendix B. Poultry, eggs and honey: Egg deliveries at the collection points have increased considerably. From January the following quantities have been delivered; 129,062 Pebruar .......... 220.596 stüok March ....................... 5.652,943 pieces April ............... 6.379,417 pieces Despite the existing shortage of feed, deliveries have not been reduced compared to the previous year and despite a significant reduction in poultry stocks, which is undoubtedly due to the better identification of poultry stocks and the more careful compulsory disposal of eggs. Slaughter poultry was also not on the market in the report mo- nat. It has already been pointed out that the distribution of small industrial towns must not be disregarded in the present management of poultry, which in recent years have had a lasting effect on poultry farmers and consumers. However, the introduction of these measures, particularly for poultry farmers, is generally considered to be a very particular hardship, and over the banning of stews there is a particular complaint about house help, which has so far been carried out from household waste by the mast of the so-called "Christmas goose". These households have often sought additional feed for poultry fattening through the harvesting of cereals on the harvested fields. In the course of the regulation, households without a natural feed basis have now been excluded from the keeping of geese and ducks.
