FAT GOBBLERS
GLUT MARKETS
Those Who Delay Making Their
Purchases Secure a
Cheaper Rate

II you delayed purchasing your
Thanksgiving turkey until the last
minute. or at least until yesterday
afternoon, you Jared better than your
neighbor, who may have hastened tc
provide against a possible scarcity OF
holiday fowls by doing his marketing
bright and early Tuesday. At least you
should have done better than the early
buyer, and you probably did If you
were wise, for during the "a hours In
tervening between Tuesday noon and
u o'clock yesterday the ideas of the
men who sell turkeys underwent a
change. The net result of this change
was a drop of cents a pound in the
cost Of turkeys at retail. 80 cents a
pound being the ruling price at most
of the large retail stores yesterday,
against IS cents the preceding day.
Several high priced establishments
stuck TO the old rate, but late buyers,
instead Of being made TO suffer for
their dilatory tactics, were able to take
advantage of the decline in the market.
HIGH PRICES NOT REALIZED
Certain wholesale jobbers in their
eagerness TO secure large share of the
holiday business, flooded the mails with
literatur ethat was printed for the
benefit of turkey raisers, and in which
IL was strongly intimated that there
would be a repetition of the conditions
that made turkeys cost consumers As
cents a pound last Christmas. With
the hope of the growers raised, con-
signments came forward freely-more
n ed-
and the result was that receivers were
unable to realize the high prices that
overzealous hustlers for business had
promised TO return.
When the first large shipments
reached the wholesale market Tuesday
receivers fixed the selling price at 80
cents a pound and in some instances
q premium was asked for the best Sc
lections- Retail tradesmen. who had
been led to believe that the market
would be high, stocked up at these
prices, and informed consumers that
the holiday birds would cost 33 cents
pound. A majority of the retailers,
however, were skeptical, and they were
inclined to hold of and see what would
happen.
SURPLUS OF TURKEYS
AS a result of their waiting tactics
something did happen. When the
wholesalers closed their stores Tues
day night there was surplus some
say Of so tons, on hand and it became
evident that receivers were too high
in their views as to values. Further
heavy consignments came in on top of
the carry over yesterday, and instead
OF holding for 2e or 30 cents, the whole
salers were willing sellers at prices
ranging from 25 cents to 27 cents as to
quantity. The 80 cent price to consum-
ers naturally followed, and several
large large concerns were even able to
make a leader of turkeys at % cents
yesterday. The latter figure only pre-
vailed outside of poultry shops. how
ever
Leading retailers reported that the
holiday supply was pretty we'll sold out
yesterday, and it was the consensus of
opinion among large wholesalers that
therere would have beea more serious
break in the market but for the fact
that consumers seemed willing to pay
80 cents a pound for their Thanksgiv-
ing dinner.
