TURKEYS ARE SCARCE.
Big Crop is Not in Evidence Say the
Dealers.

For many years it has been stated
would be a great shortage in turkeys
That is the cry again this year. Here
tofore by some means about every
family that started out to get turkey
was able to get bird. A dealer says
that while the supply is not visible at
the present time, that somewhere on
the farm or on the way between the
farm and the Thanksgiving dinner ta-
BILE, there is a bird for all who want
one.
There are many families like the
president who know just where their
Thanksgiving bird is and where he has
been since he was Matched. A local
dealer says that the quality of turkey
that can be obtained is not always up
to the standard that most families de-
mand. He says it takes cold weather
to fatten turkeys and IL is necessarily
some time after the first cold snap thav
choice turkey meat can be obtained
over the counters.
Some of the dealers say that on al
most any day soon the Chicago market
may have many car loads of turkeys
to distribute and that great quantities
may come here If the dealers put
i'm their orders. In few days the
dealers will be able to talk turkey"
and discuss more definitely concerning
quantity, quality and price. No one
ever knows what the available supply
of Thanksgiving turkey is going to be
until there has been period of cold
weather and the farmers start the fat
tened birds toward the market.

NO SKATING IN SIGHT.
Lovers of Winter Pastime Looking
Forward TO Colder Weather,

Lovers of ice skating are beginning
to wonder whether it will be possible
to skate at the Palestra on Thanks
giving day. Judging from present wea-
Their indications. it does not look like
it. But then, Lake Superior weather
is not to be trusted. If the weather
man will only take a tumble and ar
range for some good oldfashioned
freezing weather, not only the ice
skaters but every business man in this
district will be thankful To him. 1t Is
claimed that the present stress Of fine
weather is injuring business The
hardware dealers report that hardly
any skates. hockey sticks or other ar
ticles connected with winter pastimes
are being called for as yet. AS rule
about this time of the year the hard
ware dealers are very busy persons.
If 1t is impossible to open the Pales-
ira for ice skating on Thanksgiving
eve there is every likelihood it will be
open for skating the first week in De-
cember. This has been invariably the
case since the rink was built. The big
floor will be flooded as soon as the
weather gives any indications of freez-
ing. No time will be lost in getting
the required thickness of ice. The Pal
estra is a very popular winter resort,
especially among the younger folks.
will be made for dances
and skating parties and every induce
ment offered by the management to in
crease its patronage.
