the payment can be accomplished

out that crop conditions had placed
them in a bad plight, many of the
tenants of their lands having default

Menu of First Thanksgiving Feast


What did our Puritan ancestors dine on at
their first Thanksgiving feast? Surely they
did not set the standard which is being fol
lowed today on the Thanksgiving dinner
anus
We know that some things We're lacking that
they must have greatly missed There could
have been no butter, cream, milk, cheese or
any dish that is principally made with milk,
because there We're no COWS in New England
until 1923. wheC John Winthrop, later their
worshipful governor. brought over four cows
from England The butter and cheese that
they took with them the Mayi0wer were
long since consumed. | hardly think they had
chicken pie for the feast, for the fowls were
served as a rare delicacy for the sick They
could have had eggs for their pies and pud-
dings Since they raised pumpkins they might
have had pumpkin pies, if they made them
with water.
In the ocean there was great abundance of
fish, oysters, and other shellfsh. OF course,
there was none of their national dish, prime
roast beef no veal, lamb, mutton or pork.
There was plenty of deer, which would be
good substitute in vension. But they had one
thing that we like better than anything else
on Thanksgiving day. Wild turkeys were very
abundant in the woods and fields about Ply

taTe for the November holiday have been
greatly increased IN number or variety. Your
ueary amer demands on Thanksgiving the es
tehtlalS such turkey and celery and Gran
berry sauce and pumpkin pie which were the
stand bys of the feast in the DAYS of his father
and his grandfather before him The pOint is
that some of the eatabes are unquestionaby
more hdYory than were their cOunterparts of
several decades ago and-wth all due respect
to the kind that mother used to make-some
of the modern recipes seem to put it all over
the old-timers in garnishes and the prepare
ton of puddngs and pastry etc
And speaking of the changes that have
come about. take the case of the toothsome
turkey, headlner of the whole holiday menu.
It would be futile to try to convince the high
flyer OF the twentieth century who revels in
his milk-fed or chestnutfed turkey from Rhode
island or the middle west that his forefathers
ever enjoyed anything so delicious. Certainly
turkeys have increased in size, too, judging
by the average weight those that find their
way to market. However this latter develop
ment is clearly traceable to the tendency of
turKey raisers to devote themselves almost
exclusively to the Bronze, the largest of the
elk standard varieties of turkeys
However, there are two sides to this turkey
story, and the housewives who preside over
small families are the ones who have had
brought home to them the disadyantageOus
side of this boom in the size of turkeys. With
the big bronze birds weighing from l6 to IS
pounds apiece-and usually nearer the latter
than the former Misunderstanding the market
It is becoming every year more difficult for
the buyer of d family of two or three people
to find a satisfactory six. seven or eigHt pound
turkey. 1t really begins to look as though the
small families would he driven To hotels on

learn that Texas leads all the other states III
the Union in the number of turkeys produced.
Proximity of the market to the rural as
trlct whence it draws its supply OF hohdaE
fowls is a highly important consideration now
adays, because the mistress of a city home
can no longer purchase her Thanksgiving tur-
key from a farmer who drives up to her door
marketing the products Of his own farm All
the turkeys are handled nowadays through com
mission merchants which means OF course,
that there is a middleman's profit to be paid
by the ultimate consumer Another secret of
the present high prices of turkeys is found
in the fact that the live birds are shipped long
distances If they are transported by express
the expense is considerable, and If they make
the journey by freight the trip Is nearly as
costly, inasmuch as the live birds are sent
by freight only in carload lots, which involves

LABOR GIVES ITS APPROVAL
ally Joins in Fight Against
Spread of Tuberculosis.

Direct approval of the campaign fof
the sale of Red Cross seals has been
given by the American Federation of
Labor, according to an announcement
by the National Association for tho
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis. At the last annual convention Of
the American Federation of Labor a
resolution was adopted calling on all
the members of the Federation to
further the sale as much as possible.
The resolution reads as follows:
whereas, The American Fedora
ton Of Labor has in every possible
way aided the movement for the
study and prevention of tuberculosis
throughout the United States and
Canada: md.
"Wh .a. The American National
Red c.. has been in the past and is

on the war against tuberculosis. and
by means of the funds raised in this
manner has been able to do much eff
fective work in this direction, there

ment to the movement of the Amer

age its members to further in every

ries Is quickly reflected in the price However,
cranberries are never very much of an ex-
travagance because it requires such a modest
portion to make up a batch OF cranberry sauce.
When cranberries are plentiful they sell whole
sale as low as 81 per barrel but few years
ago when there was a cranberry famine, the
price went as high $50 per barrel
The business side of the problem of supplying
a Thanksgiving dinner for the American people
is by no means the least interesting phase Of
this subject. The city of Chicago alone re-
ceyes during the week or ten days before
Thanksgiving many as half million turkeys,
valued in the aggregate, at wholesale prices, at
much more than millions dollars From Cape
Cod, Mass, the greatest cranberry growing dis
trict there are shipped each autumn more than
oEethird of a million car loads of cranberres,
and the major portion of this harvest finds it's
way to Thanksgiving dinner tables. Many car
loads of celery from Michigan and other states
swell the total cost Of our Thanksgiving dinner
to millions.
