AS Thanksgiving day approaches it
developes that more turkeys are to
be marketed from Somerset county
farms than for many years past. 1t
does not seem that more turkeys
eggs were set last spring than usual,
but the excessively dry season with
plenty of grasshoppers, if a scourge
for every thing else, furnished just the
conditions favorable for turkeys.
From this circumstance it happens
that about every chick that Matched
out has matured and there are more
than double the birds ready for the
market than there were last year in
this section. The price, however, is
governed by the Boston market and
the great packing house interests
have not as yet seen fit to state what
it will be. There is the prospect at
least that we shall have more native
turkeys in the local shops, favorable
consideration as they are always
much better than western stock,
though it cannot as yet be determined
what they will cost.
All kinds of disinfectants at Fogg's
drug store.
