Poultry Is Higher.

The farmers or others in the vicinity
of North Topeka who have poultry to
sell for the holidays will get a better
rate than they have for two years. This
rate applies to chickens. ducks and
geese but not to turkeys.
r. r. Bear, of the Topeka Packing
Company announced this morning that
he was paying more for every kind of
poultry excepting turkeys than he did
last year and that he was paying less
for turkeys. According to his state
ment it will be possible for the con-
sumner to buy his Christmas turkey
dressed at about the same rate per
pound as they were required to pay for
live birds last year. The rate this year
will be about eight cents less than it
was two years ago. The price for live
turkeys, to the consumer last year was
from twenty to twenty-five cents per
pound alive and this will be about the
rate for dressed birds this season.
1t will be possible for the farmers
to dispose of their chickens at two
cents more a pound than they got last
year This applies to practically ali
kinds or grades. Boosters are being
bought at the same price.
There is an advance of one cent per
pound for ducks and one cent for geese.
The price on turkeys will not affect
many people in the vicinity of North
Topeka for the reason that few farm
ers raise them for the market, al
though a number have been brought
to market from the outlying districts.

OnleSS all SlBIlS Iall Il6 merchants
of North Topeka will close up their
books at the end of the year with
larger figures than they did at the
end of 1911 or in 1910. The holiday
business has started off brisk and
promises to be greater than for several
years.
All of the business men have put in
larger and more attractive stocks than
usual and appear to be reaping a re-
ward. Everything is selling at about
the same price, and with the general
prosperity that prevails, a great bust
ness is expected.
The farmers who usually patronize
prosperous this year than for two or
three years. This has been made
possible by the crops which have been
harvested and an increase in the num-
Der of acres which have been titled
in the north part of Shawnee county.
Truck gardening and small farms in
the vicinity of North Topeka have in
creased the population There are
fewer empty houses in the First ward
than is customary and with these in
creases in population, the merchants
may expect an increase in business.
The holiday business for them is
just beginning and it is believed that
every store will be taxed to it's capac-
ity by the end of the week. North
Topekans are shopping early but there
are such a large number that the usual
rush during the last few days before
Christmas cannot be avoided.
