WHERE ARE THE TURKEYS?

Yes. where are the big red headed
turkey gobblers that spread their tails,
displayed their crimson cravats and
posed and strutted on the fence at the
old wagon shed?
a few years ago as we drove through
the country we gazed on fiocks Of
giant bronze and Hollands, white as
snow, gathered round the big barn,
roosting in the trees and gazing and
gobbling from the fences and the
yards. Today we may drive for miles
through fertile farm lands, we may go
from farm to farm when the frost is
on the pumpkin and the corn is in

and yet when the fall roundup come
they had more turkeys than all the

folks was always complainin' bout the
foxes ketchin' their turkeys, and all
the time it was the two legged foxes.
"Well, we had whole lot of law

gettin' the turkeys that the other foxes

AS if to give emphasis to what fol-
