lery's father had always had a devoted
personal following in his rich and
socially prominent congregation. FL
lery all his life saw his father accept
ing their tactfully offered gifts of a
country home for the Summer,
limousine for the afternoon, an in.
flated fee for performing the wedding
ceremony of favorite daughter. And
he saw his father, his highly re-
spected father, in return for these
gifts and good salary. offering what
seemed to his childish mind rather
vague mmodities-eloQuence in the
pulpit, sonorous voice in the serv-

The real ability behind it all, the
real helpfulness to parishioner in

Recently, however. the Department
Of Agriculture has gathered authorita-

value to the growers. Plans are now
under way for the study of several
phases of turkey raising and Tor the
thorough testing of certain unproNen
theories by means of actual research
and investigation on an experimental
turkey farm in the West.
DIR. Morley A. JUL. senior poultry
man of the Bureau of Animal Indus
try, Department of Agriculture, thinks
there is good opportunity for further
development in the turkey industry.
He declares that turkey raising is
quite profitable, particularly where
conditions are suitable and proper
methods of management are followed. >
In speaking of the incentives to the
grower, DIR. JUL said: Turkeys can
b. raised successfully under very sim
pie conditions, so that the capital out
lay is quite small. Except during the
growing season, the management of
the flock is fairly simple matter. OF
course, considerable care must be eN-
ercised in maintaining constitutional
vigor in the breeding stock, the flock
must be kept relatively free from dis
ease and the soil where the poults are
fed must be kept sanitary.
But these factors can he dealt
with when proper care is exercised.
Moreover, turkeys are inclined to
range freely. and in doing so they
destroy many injurious insects and
pick up much waste grain. This re-
