TURKEYS SCARCE.
Market Price, % Cents Per Pound Not
Enough Inducement.

Thanksgiving turkey in Topeka is q
cents pound with very little turkey
in sight. The farmers have refused to
sell their turkeys at the prevailing mar
ket prices this year and the supply Is
several lengths behind the demand
Last year the farmers received a fat
price for their turkeys AS a natural
consequence almost every farr1er pro-
duced turkey crop last spring. Wealth
er conditions were favorable and there
are plenty of turkeys on the Kansas
farms The birds are not fully matured
at this time and viii weigh in heavier
at Christmas time With a compare
lively low mraket every farmer is APP
parently holding his turkeys for Christ
mas
There is a big supply of chickens.
ducks and geese on the market: and
these will take the place of the chosen
bird at a good many Thanksgiving dim
ners. Dressed chickens and geese are
being offered for 20 cents a pound.
Even the Wall street crowd in New
York can buy turkey cheaper than d
hungry Kansas man this year In the
metropolis the wholesale price of tur-
keys ranges from 81 to % cents a pound.
Ducks are 10 to 10 cents and chickens
are offered at prices ranging from Is to
Is cents a pound.
One Topeka dealer in talking of the
situation said:
1--WE have been unable to buy as many
turkeys as usual this year, because ev-
cry farmer seems to be holding on for
high prices. They feel that the price
should be as high as a year ago and
are not satisfied. There is plenty of
feed in the country and the farmer
has no trouble in carrying his turkey
crop over until the Christmas holt
days.
Another peculiar feature is the fact
that in years gone by Kansas has sup
piled the east with thousands of tur-
keys. This year the east seems to have
procured its turkeys elsewhere, or rails
ed them at home. 1t is certain they
didn't come from Kansas
The demand for turkeys was heavy
today and the visible supply was great
w diminished at noon.

NO MORE TO SAY.
Railroads Probably Will Present No
RebuttaI Evidence.

Washington. Nov. 23.-The interstate
commerce commission entered on the
third day of the presentation of testi-
mony by shippers against the proposed
increase of freight rates on the eastern
trunk lines.
Many more witnesses were arranged
for by Attorney Brandeis of the At
lantic seaboard shippers traffic COM
Inittee. In view, however, of the state
ment from the commission that the
case had been made out so far as the
practicabiIity of scientific management
in the plants already described and the
possibility of extension to other plants
was concerned, the testimony along
this line was expected to be concluded
today
There are number of other wit
nesses from the east and from the west
who are expected to appear Friday and
for a day or two next week to take up
other phases of the opposition than
lack of scientific management of the
lines.
Counsel for the railroads have ad-
vised the commission that while not
binding themselves not to change their
minds, there was no present intention
on the part of the railroads to offer
any evidence in rebuttal- They rested
their case last month.
