MARKETING TURKEYS.

Birds Of Medium Size and Weight Are
tho Best Sellers.
We can offer pointer on marketing
turkeys that we discovered while buy
ing Christmas turkeys in the city mar
ket, and that is the superiority Of
medium-sized turkeys over 20 to "a
Founders, as sellers. People, as rule,
do not want enough turkey at one time
to lay banquet spread, and consc-
quently they pick for something small,
or not exceeding medium in size.
The hen turkeys always sell first,
simply because they are more suited in
size to the wants of the ordinary fam
lily. Then the smaller gobblers go, and
lastly the pride of the fock-the big
gest tom in the lot-and he usually goes
at discount of two or three cents .
pound less than the lesser weights.
A turkey that weighs from ten to tif.
teen pounds dressed is plenty large
enough. The people don't want tur-
key as big as hog. but they do want .
fat turkey.
1t seems to US that there is good deal
of room for improvement in breeding
turkeys for the market. That bird
shorter in legs and neck, and very full
in the breast, would be more desirable.
One that would be meaty and plump,
and capable of taking on great deal
of fat.
The heavy weight, tall, rawboned
toms that weigh 25 to 4opounds may be
suited to barbecue feast, but they
are not the kind that the man with an
ordinary. size market basket looks for
when he goes to the city market.
There would be more demand, and
better sale for turkeys all the year
through, if they were grown more with
view to compact body, meat and fat,
than for large size and coarse structure.
