Remarkable Absorption

New York. Oct 2S.-Devciopments
the railroad conference overnight
Eliminating in abandonment of the
trikc program by the big Five Broth

and a remarkabl" absorption capacity.
The CrisS-CrOgS currents which de.
veloprd during the session could be ac-
ccpted more as a reflection of vigorous
contest for control on the part of the
professionals. At several intervals there
were indications many OF the profess
Sional elements once more had made a
very erroneous miscalculatlon of the
market position. Acting on the old
Street axiom. that with the good news
out the market was safc, good portion

General Asphalt and Pacific Oil were
prominent in this connection. The
former, as in the case Of several Other
pool issues, suggesting q severe grueIing
of the short interest. This applied par
ticularly IA the oil group.
While the abandonment OF the strike
program by the railroad unions was n
matter of great satisfaction in fnan-
"ial circles, there was considerable di-
vision Of opinion as to whethe? the re-
suit accomplished could be accepted ss

Commodity Markets
GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Oct. 2S.-Thc wheat market
was nervous. but prices again were dis
posed TO work into higher territory. The
in the main was due TO short
covering. The buying was mainly To-
cal, some of the bigger floor profession
ais forcing smaller pit traders to cover
with their purchases. Offerings were
light, there being a let.up in hedging
pressure. Cash wheat premiums were
Shipping sales were 10000
bushels. Export trade WAS slow. The
railroad strike situation had bullish
effect early.
There was little interest in corn
Prices simply reflected the action OF
wheat. The cash corn basis was un :
changed to shade easier, the latter on
mixed corn. Shipping demand was slow
with sales of only 10000 bushels re-
ported.
Oats were quiet. The market was
helped by the tirmneSs in other grains.
Elevator interests sold early. The cash
basis was unchanged. Shipping sales
were 10000 bushels

Turkeys to be killed and dressed on

When ready TO kill, the bird should be

large wing feathers are removed first,
after which the body feathers are
pulled out. When the turkeys are to
be marketed locally or are to be
shipped but short distance, they are
cooled to Il temperature of about So
degrees Fahrenheit by hanging in the
open air, provided the weather is cold
into ice water and kept there until
thoroughly cooled.
After cooling they are packed I'M
drawn in boxes or barrels. 1t is in
proper refrigerating facilities to ship
dressed turkeys, as losses from i'm
proper cooling and from their being
exposed to warrh weather during tran
sit are liable to occur. Aside from
this it is seldom profitable TO ship tuI.
keys any great distance except in car
load lots; when this is done the tur
keys are cooled to 30 degrees Fahren
heit, packed in boxes or barrels, an6
shipped in refrigerator cars.
