key broiler would have to sell for
about cents a pound more than
a chicken broiler. Otherwise the
saving in time, labor, and feed
make the turkey broiler an attrac-
tive possibility.
In the past, the size of the tur-
key breeds such as the Broad
breasted Bronze, have worked
against turkeys for broilers. But
the development of lightweight
turkey breeds, such as the Jersey
Buff, and particularly the Belts
vile Small White as bred by De-
partment workers at the research
center near Washington have re-
moved the handicap. These light
weight breeds are also free of lark
pinfeathers.

He said in his formal statement:
"In presenting myself as can
didate for the Democratic nomi-

Der IL primary, I feel deeply that
the people of Arizona want a
governor who is their chief execu-
tive in fact as we'll as title.
"My political and governmental
experience, both inside and out
side of Arizona, qualities me to
deal with problems which beset
Arizona today.
"Arizona's problems which are
linked with federal government
operations are many, including this
states crying. need for water and
power.
"Within itself Arizona must have
healthy expanding economy. We
must encourage establishment OF
new industries and businesses and
explorations for minerals and oil,
and we must develop fully our
agricultural potentialS.
"To do this, wastefulness in gov
ernment must be stopped.
"And to carry out such pro-
gram Arizona must have a chief
executive who is positive, vigor-
Gus. and far-Sighted.
"Two years ago, when our be-
loved Gov. Sidney P. Osborn died,
there was $9,OOO,OOO surplus in the
in the state treasury, and no state
tax rate.
"Today that surplus has been
dissipated by the administration
which since has been in power.
Now we have a 65-cent tax rate,
and the property owners of Ariz-
ona will be in for another terrific
shock at the beginning of the next
fiscal year, July 1. At that time
the state tax rate will be more
than doubled.
"The state tax rate must be re-
duced in order to keep our pres
ent citizens and our potential cit
izens employed.
!" A low tax rate and full en-
pigment go hand-in-hand. We
must have full employment else
our state will not go forward.
"There must also be statewide

to be distributed TO priests and

Bun it is not right to use that

does not mean the local church, it
means the temple at Jerusalem.
All the priests and Levites had

IS, every Christian is to keep his

not command that there shall even

nothing about the church voting

This Scripture recognizes that

Gus 27.30 says. The 1.-THE does
not belong to the church, does not

not belong to the board of dea-

14-Year-Old Boy
Is Turkey Champ

Champion All turkey raiser in
Ottawa County is John Wood III
who lives near Elmore. Fourteen
year-old John has 125 White Hol-
land turkeys. He started in the
business in 1947 with only Is tur-
keys. Plans in 1851 call for 500
birds plus new building to be
used as picking plant and cold
storage.
All turkeys raised are dressed
for the local trade. Demand is so
good that the Wood family has
trouble saving out Thanksgiving
turkey for themselves. Cellophane
bags and cardboard boxes are used
to protect the dressed carcass in
cold storage.
The project is really a family
affair with all members of the
family helping. John does the
feeding personally and looks after
other details of the growing birds
Porches are used to house the
turkeys and their feet never touch
the ground. The family owns a
power saw and other equipment
John and his dad built their own
turkey rearing equipment with
these shop tools.
Young John is quite a business
man. Each year he increases his
volume and equipment. After dis
cussing financial needs with dac
he proceeds to borrow needed cap

Feed is furnished by the mill ir
