DRESSED BIRDS ARE DEAD.
The Needed Lesson That Was Given a
Fault Finding Poultry
Dealer,

During last Thanksgiving week poultry.
man Of the northwest sent several barrelfuls
OF fat, dressed turkeys to a certain commits.
sion merchant, who is an extremely CLOSE
buyer and never fails when he receives a
consignment to claim an allowance for some
thing alleged to have spoiled on the way.
Heretofore, says the San Francisco Argo.
naut, he had dealt exclusively in live
fowls, and probably the correspondence
clerk got things mixed. AT any rate the
shipper was astonished to receive a letter by
return mail about as follows;
Dear Sir: We regret to advise you that
four Of the turkeys in your consignment Of
November reached here dead. Please make
deduction for same and return correct
amount. Yours truly"
The poutryman communed with himself
and replied thus:
Dear Sir: | am sorry to say find it i'm
possible to make the concession requested
have established a rule requiring all Gus
toners who desire live dressed turkeys to
notify us in advance, so we can send them
in heated cars. Turkeys without feathers
and insides are liable to catch cold if shipped
in the ordinary manner. The mortality
among dressed turkeys was very large this
year. Yours mourniully."
