weights" and customers buying turkey all call
for large birds 1t is a fact that for market pur-
poses. moderate sized and even small turkeys

days past. and know this to be IA fact. How
ever, we do not wish to discourage breeders
from running up the weights, even if they at
tain the much devoted weight of Il fiftypound
gobbler at three or four years old, for as long
as there is lively demand among breeders for
heavy birds, let there be birds to supply that
demand To secure the best results in that

vigorous gobbler of this years hatch, and
which is of fine proportion, long in the body
and properly marked, and mate hun to as
