TURKEY PRICES
NOT AS GOOD
AS MIGHT Be

Current turkey prices on the city
markets indicate that the chances
for profits to the growers are not
as good as they were at this time
last year, according to Robertson
and Fam, local poultry dealers.
Due to the good prices obtained
for the big birds last year not only
valley farmers but poultry producers
i'm Nevada and Utah have raised
more turkeys this season than they
did last with the result that the
Los Angeles market is already over
supplied.
Local shippers are advised not to
contract supplies ahead by the Los
Angeles Wholesale market as the
market is considered too infirm to
warrant it. Today 5 price is 2S
cents a pound, two cents lower than
Saturdays. Fluctuations from day
TO day are keeping the valley farm
crs and turkey shippers guessing as
TO what their returns will be.
However. a boost in the price is
looked for ms Thanksgiving ap-
proaches, with the hope Of fair re
turns to the producers Of the ma
tional dclicacy.
