Price Picture
Paying prices for live birds at the
farm or ranch are around 1873 cents
a pound for hens and 1884 cents for
toms in Iowa, SO cents for hens and
31-32 cents for toms in central Cali
fornia and 40-41 cents for hens and
1896 cents for toms in the Shenan-
doah' valley of Virginia. In broad
strokes, that's the prevailing price
picture across the country.
Demand appears to be good with
some speculative buying. Dealers are
reported to be buying with con-
fidence. Some growers are resisting
prices and are having their birds
custom-dressed or handled on con
signment basis.

A Turkey 4

Every Table
By GILBERT GUSLER
Marker Analyst

THERE'S a TURKEY for every
table this year and some more be-
sides. Farmers raised 52,774,000 birds,
an increase of Is percent over last
years 45,664,O00, the previous rec
ord crop. Rising prices during the
Matching season are credited with
squirting the increase.
(The Montana turkey crop is esti-
mated at $4,000 birds, which is S
percent fewer than the 10000
raised last year,
Turkey prices appear likely to
average higher than last year. Prof
its per bird may average less than
in 1850. The increase in prices may
not be enough to cover the rise in
costs of production.
Several signs point 10 higher
prices this year in spite of the
increase in the crop. First.
there's record crop Of con-
sumers as well as of turkeys,
more people around the festal
board. and housewives will have
more spending money than ever
before. Personal incomes after
income taxes probably will be
Is to z percent greater than last
year. tSee chart.l
The increase in poundage. of tur-
key meat will be less than in total
numbers. Beltsvi1le Whites, the
small-type birds sold mostly as tur-
key broilers and fryers, account for
about two-fifths of the increase in
the crop. Hence, the average weight
of the turkeys sold will be lighter
this season. It dropped slightly last
year from the record high of 1877
pounds in 1949. Turkeys averaged
less than IA pounds per head back in
the early 30s.
Earlier Marketing
"A greater proportion Of the crol
probably has already gone to marke
than at the corresponding time il
any previous year. Last August, tn,
government survey showed tina
growers intended to market 30.2 per
cent of their birds in October O
earlier compared with 23.3 percen
in each of the last two years, tn
previous record high.

higher than year ago even though
supplies of chickens are about 10
percent greater than in 1850 and at
an all-time high. Beef and lamb,
which also rate as holiday meats
competing with turkey, are higher
than last fall.
At present, young hens weighing
1914 pounds, dressed basis, are sell
ing at Chicago at 4912-5o cents a
pound while 14-16s are 4715 48 cents.
Young toms weighing 1920 pounds
are 41-42 cents while those over "a
pounds are 46-4694 cents. Light-type
birds, where quoted, are bringing
small premium.
Profits May Be Meager
While prices probably will aver
age higher than for the 1850 crop,
profits may be rather meager. Here's
a rough calculation:
Nationally, poults cost about rs
cents each last spring. Around 100
pounds of feed are required to pro-
duce an 18-pound turkey. The aver
age cost of a poultry ration made up
with a larger proportion Of home
grown grain, as reported by the U. S.
department of agriculture, was about
1895 cwt. this year.
Allowing about SIS cents (.7
hourl bird for hired labor with
substantial flocks and about IS
cents for other costs. including
mortality. the total cost would
be about $500 a bird. AT the
Sept. is average farm price of
36.3 cents a pound. the return
would be $3.50. leaving a profit
of SO cents. With no hired help.
the total labor return would be
about 81 bird.
There's a chance to do better by
skillful marketing. When to sell
should be determined more by the
maturity and fairness of the birds
than by expectations as to price
changes. With. big crop to be
moved, buyers are likely to be crit.

washington, II. 4. (NNPA)-Ine
Florida Supreme Court has figura-
lively thumbed it's nose at the
United States Supreme Court which
ordered it to decide golf discrimi-
nation case in line with the high
courts decisions in Oklahoma and
Texas school segreaton cases.
Rejection by the Florida court of
the decision of the high tribunal
was revealed in a petition for re-
view of the case filed in the Su-
preme Court last Thursday.
The case was brought back to
the Supreme Court by Joseph Rice
of Miami, who sued to compel the
City of Miami to permit colored
golfers to use the Miami Springs
County Club golf course more than
on one day week.
The City of Miami owns and
operates the golf course known as
the Miami Springs Country Club.
It is the only publicly-owned and
operated golf course in Miami.
Prior to April 27, 1949, H. H.
Arnold, superintendent of the Mi
ami Springs Country Club, had is
sued a rule permitting colored
golfers to use the golf course only
on Monday of each week. The 9TH
er six days were reserved exclu-
sively for the use of white golfers.
Arnold has authority to make
and enforce rules governing the use
of the course by the general pub
lie.
A colered person sought permis-
sion from Arnold on Wednesday,
April 81, 1949, to play on the golf
course. Permission was refused.
Rice brought suit in the Dade
County Circuit Court June 3, 1949,
for writ of mandamus to require
Arnold to permit him to use the
golf course at any time the course
was open and subject only to such
rules as applied to all persons. In
his answer to the suit, Arnold said:
1. The State of Florida and the
City of Miami require racial segre-
CATION in the use of public facilities.
2. For a perod of six days in
April (1949) colored persons were
permitted to use the golf course
without restriction.
3. The golf course is self-sus-
tanning, depending upon the fees
paid by golfers, and an average OF
2OO players a day is necessary TO
sustain it on a paying basis.
