THANKSGIVING
SUPPLIES HERE
Stores Filled With Turkeys
and Other Good Things
to Eat

The meat markets and poultry
stores of the city, as well as other
stores dealing in provisions. are in
readiness for the Thanksgiving feast
which will be celebrated on Thurs
day. Although ducks. chickens and
geese are on display, the turkey
globbler has the place OF honor. The
principal aso for this is said to
be the fact that turkeys r roost-
ing on the top prices and customers
for the birds are not as plentiful as
in years past.
Turkey is quoted at between fifty
and sixty-five cents a pound. and
dealers give this reason for the sale
not being up to normal. However,
some hold out the opinion that there
will be many last minute purchases
and this may create a shortage dur
ing the last hours before the
Thanksgiving spread.
Cranberries have become almost
as important an item to the Thanks
giving table as turkey. and these are
retailing at twenty-five cents a quart.
This is slightly higher than last year.
it is said. but IL is safe to assume
that almost everyone will find a side
dish of the u when the dinner
il served.
