IN MERRY MOOD


The prospect for obtaining q good
Thanksgiving turkey this year is most
excellent They began to come in yes
terday, and the produce dealers say
that they never saw a better bred lot
of fowls. They are all well dressed,
and seem to possess a maximum of ex-
ira good taste They are a cheap lot,
though, something in the way of brok-
en-doWn aristOcracy. That is what
makes one think they will get it in the
neck before Thursday.
Most OF the turkeys and their COM
paniOn fowls are northern born, the
hot weather in the west preventing a
large exodus from that section. The
demand win be about as usual, from
so to IS tons being needed to supply
Worcester appetites. Exactly what the
price will be is hard to get at just yet,
as the commission houses have not be-
gun to sell. Mondays sales however
will make the price.
Poultry in generally is plentiful this
year, which may account for the high
price of eggs. Strictly fresh eggs are
scarce and high the hens being Wor-
ried over the death of so many of their
companions, but it is hoped that they
will become reconciled soon and be
mere prolific.
Turkey isn't worth much without the
"fixings," but people needn't be Wor-
ried about that. Celery is good and
plentiful, and the price is just about
The same as usual The same thing is
true with cranberries, though they are
feeling sour about something.
But it is a pity about apples. The
crop is short, the quality not particu-
larly good and the price rather high
Pie apples are selling at 81 80 to So per
barrel, and fancy eating apples at $3.5(
to $4 per barrel. Pears are likewise
scarce and high.
Foreign fruits are not up to the usual
standard, either in quantity or quality
Oranges are scarce, and the market
is dependent on Jamaica fruit almost
entirely. Mexico and California can
furnish but little, California fruit being
almost two months later than usual.
Bananas are short. This does not
refer to the length of the individual OF
to its financial standing, but to the Vlsi-
bic supply. The last cargo arriving
in Boston on the new good ship Adj
miral Dewey became proud of the name
of the vessel, and when it arrived, was
found to be too fresh for use. In other
words, the new ventilating apparatus
failed to work, and the fruit was over
ripe when it was unloaded.
