NEWS OF FARM AND RANGE
MARKET
AFFECTED BY WAR
Owing to Increase in Cost Of Feed,
Farmers Are Turning OFF Turkeys
and Chickens-Prices Lower Than
Last Year.

Turkeys and chickens for the
Thanksgiving table are more plenti-
ful this year than last and prices
promise to be lower. The poultry
market. like most other markets has
been affected by the European war
in a roundabout way and the effect
will doubtless be noticeable In the
prices.
The war has boosted up the price
OF wheat to a notch where II makes
1t Improbable to use that commodity
extensively as feed for poultry. For
this season the farmers are turning
off much OF their feathered bipeds
and the liberal supply Is thus bound
TO reduce quotations. However. the
present abundance OF fowls means
that later on there will be a shortage
for market purposes and a corre-
spending increase in prices. This at
least Is the diagnosis Of the situation
by local dealers.
A number OF the local dealers have
already contracted their Thanksgiv-
ing turkeys at II cents a pound live
price Is higher than It will be later
on. Last year at Thanksgiving time
dressed turkeys sold here at 2s cents
a pound but this year the price may
go as low as rs cents. according TO
one Pendleton market proprietor.
Chickens are now selling at 20 cents
a pound and this price will be main
talned for some time. according to
the dealers. Dressed geese are being
secured by the dealers at is cents.

year. Ducks are rather scarce but
the price will not be any higher than
last year. the demand being small
