One Of the largest shippers of tur-
keys in the state has given the
following views regarding the pres
ent turkey crop 10 the Lexington
Herald:
All this talk about a short tur-
key crop is absurd. There is alb
solutely no shortage in the number
Of turkeys produced in Ken ucky
this year. and the number viii be
at least as great as 1t was last
year, when the total crop am punt
ed to about two million pounds
The turkeys Of Kentucky are bet
ter in quality this year thin they
were last, because Of more Grass
and plenty of water. The price this
season will be about ten cents per
pound in the country, and eleven
cents per pound. delivered This
will be the top price
Last year the price was ~ 1-2c
in the country and 10 1-2c a pound
delivered. There are hundreds Of
thousands Of pounds Of turkeys in
commission house in Boston In cold
storage that were bought las year
by the commission men. who paid
19c for them, expecting u sell
them in Boston for Csc per pound
But these hundreds OF thousands
of pounds are selling now at zoe
and less.
Whenever the price in the East
ern market gets over is TO 20 cents
a ID. for turkeys, 1t stops the de-
mand to a big extent, as the gem
eral public is unable to pay that
price. Consequently the mily
that eats Thanksgiving turkey this
year will pay some less for It than
they did last yerr.
