This is the additional million men
mentioned by Premier Asquith in the

TURKEYS Will BE
PLENTIFUL
HERE
THE THANKSGIVING BIRDS WILL
BRING TWENTY-FIVE CENTS
a POUND

The market abounds this week with
all varieties of delicacies for Thanks
giving. While a definite price has not
been set on turkeys, it is the opinion
Of the merchants that these birds will
sell for about the same price as last
year 25 cents a pound The stores
have not received their shipments of
turkeys, but expect them in few
days. All sizes will be on display, SO
housewives had better gauge the ''stuf
fling capacity of their youngsters, and
order accordingly
For those--if there by any such
that do not care for the conventional
Thanksgiving bird, the stores have
provided geese, ducks and chickens.
These will sell at a reasonable price,
although definite figures have not
been announced.
Plenty Of garnishing will be avail
able to round out the feast. All sorts
and varieties of vegetables are on
hand. Fresh tomatoes are cheap and
plentiful, both head and hot house
lettuce may be purchased in abund-
ance, and parsley, radishes and onions
abound. Extra fine, beans, both wax
and string, have been received here
and one merchant is displaying an as
sortment Of "stringless' string beans.
Cauliflower beets, parsnips, turnips,
lrutabagas and carrots are seen every
where. Celery, famous Thanksgiv
ing edible, is moderate in price. And
then there are sweet potatoes and
pumpkins, without which the holiday
could not exist. One merchant also
has fine shipment of California bell
peppers and smoked white fish. Cab
bage is displayed at another store.
Fruit is still as plentiful, both in
quantity and assortment, as it was last
Friday. Strawberries and bananas
still continue to arrive and several
more shipments of the apples that
make your mouth water have been
received here. Lemons and persim-
mons are obtainable, and grape fruit
lis more prevalent than formerly. Sew
eral varieties of fine grapes have ar
rived, among them the justly far fam
