 4.  Use of Estimates 
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates 
     and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
     the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the  
     financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses 
     during the reporting period.  Actual results may vary from those
     estimates. 
 
 5.  Investments in and Receivables from Unconsolidated Affiliates. 
     The Company accounts for its investments in (5) five unconsolidated

     and 40 weeks ended January 2, 1999. Earnings from unconsolidated 
     affiliates existing during the 13 and 39 weeks ended December 27, 1997

 6.  Year 2000 Compliance

     relates to all major issues.  The total costs associated with this program
     is not expected to materially affect earnings although final cost will not
     be known until program is complete.


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial   
Condition and Results of Operation  
January 2, 1999    

Financial Condition
Continued strong earnings and cash flows have enabled the Company to make
Capital improvements, continue its stock re-purchase program and significantly
reduce its debt during the nine months ended January 2, 1999.  During the 
quarter just completed the Company renewed its revolving line of credit and 
increased the line to $40 million of which $19 million was outstanding at the 
end of the period.

Results of Operations  
Sales for the 13 week period ended January 2, 1999 compared to the 13 weeks
ended December 27, 1997 were 1.1% higher and is attributed to 4% more production
pounds, a higher market price for whole birds.  Georgia Dock quoted market price
was 16.1% higher, however the impact of depressed export prices for dark meat 
tended to off-set other positive market conditions.  Sales for the 40 weeks 
ended January 2, 1999 were 2.6% lower than year ago levels and while production
for the quarter was up slightly over year ago levels the year to date production
total was slightly less and the same market factors influenced the total year to
days results.

Another factor influencing revenues for the 13 week and 40 week period as 
compared to year ago levels is volume of outside purchases for further 
processing which has been lower than previous years due to ability to better 
utilize production from within the company to produce further processed items.

Gross margins for the quarter and 40 week period ended January 2, 1999 were 
significantly improved over the corresponding periods of a year ago.  For the 
quarter ended January 2, 1999 gross margin was 15.4% as compared to 3.71% for 
the same quarter of a year ago.  For the 40 weeks ended January 2, 1999 the 
gross margin was 14.2% as compared to 4.3% for the 39 weeks ended December 27, 
1997.  The major contributor to this improvement was lower feed cost which
averaged 26.5% and 23.4% lower for the quarter and 9 month periods 
respectively as compared to year ago prices.

Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses   
Selling, delivery and administrative expenses were down slightly for the 
quarter and unchanged for year to date as compared to the same period of a 
year ago.

Interest Expense  
Interest Expense was 26.6% lower for the quarter and 17.2% lower for the 40 
weeks as compared to the same periods of a year ago and is a function of 
reduced borrowing.

Other Income  
Other income declined by 66.4% for the quarter and 33.5% for the 40 weeks as 
compared to the comparable periods of a year ago.  This drop-off in other 
income reflects the impact of Kentucky Joint Ventures operations which are 
recorded via the equity method.  When netted together against earnings of the 
other unconsolidated affiliates the total is substantially reduced.  

Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes reflects taxes at statutory rates adjusted for
available tax credits to which the company is entitled.
