but it is considered likely that the
shortage in the western part of the
state and in Oregon will intimately re-
suit in the shipment of large numbers
of the fowls, and thus reduce the To-
cal supply.
Quotations are strong, as is always
the case at this season, with prospects
Of still further increase. Even
though the turkey market on this side
of the mountains should manifest a
weakness with the approach of the
festive season, little apprehension would
be felt. because Of the plentitude Of
other poultry; so what's the difference
If we can't have turkey, a chicken
