Big Turkey Crop.

Central Kentucky has produced
one of the largest turkey crops in
decade and marketing of the
toothsome birds in anticipation of
the usual heavy demand for the
Thanksgiving holidays will be on
with a rush in few days.
Weather conditions seem just right
for an early Strengthening CT birds.
and at many points in Central
Kentucky car loads of dressed
fowls will be sent East by the ex-
press route. The price is expected
to be much lower than last year.
The increased production of tur-
keys throughout the Blue Grass
section is. largely due to the uni
form success housewives had in
handling the young turks during
and Immediately following the
Matching period. The drouth was
on and temperatures were warm,
resulting in ideal weather for the
rapid growth of the birds, and tic
losses usually resulting at this
time of the year were not in evil
dence this season.
With the big increase in turkey
| production came a like increase
in the growth and production Of
chickens and the crop of the latter
is the largest in the history of the
country. The same dry weather
conditions made it good for small
game and reports to the Blue
Grass Farmer indicate that a
goodly supply of quail and rab-
bits are to be found in all sections
of Central Kentucky.
