Frost Makes Fat Turkeys.

cold weather makes fat turkeys"
said the poultercr. because in a warm
fall the ground keeps soft. the yege-
tatlon fingers on and the fields are full
OF worms and bugs. What's the re-
suit? The turkeys from sunrise till
dark tramp the tempting fields on long
forages. eating the worms and bugs,
which thin them. and walking all their
soft and fine flesh into tough, stringy
muscle.
"a cold fall. with early frosts and
SHOWS. freezes the ground and kills
the bugs. Then the turkeys are not
tempted TO wander. They loaf in the
farm yard. gorge an abundance OF
grain and put on flesh like a middle
aged woman at a seashore hotel. But
In warm fall. hunting the irresistible
bug. the turkeys do their fifteen or
twenty miles regularly every day and
become athletes. For athletic turkeys
there is no public demand"
