IN recent years, science, d.
much as the example of the Pill
grims, has played a big role ir
helping you decide to set turkey
on your table on Thanksgiving
Day.
Because of a revolution in
breeding and feeding techniques
the traditional holiday bird costs
less (as little as IS cents a serv.
ing), tastes better, is more plen.
tiful, and goes to market in a
wide variety of convenient sizes.
The first advance in turkey eat
ing was made in the field of
breeding. The turkey the Pilgrim
brought to his Thanksgiving feast
was tough, wiry bird which
probably weighed only Z or 8
pounds alive if it was hen, or II
pounds if a gobbler. Today the
housewife has no trouble buying
a Is pound dressed turkey; and
it's a well finished, tender bird
with plenty of succulent white
meat.
The difference has come about
through long and patient work by
/ the turkey breeder. He has
learned to select strains of birds
with broad breasts or well-formed
thighs, with resistance to disease,
with efficient growth, and so on
through a range of desirable
characteristics.
Another new turn in turkey
breeding has taken place in the
last four or five years. Smaller
families wanted smaller birds. So
the research men proceeded to
breed a strain of turkeys back to
the smaller size they originally
were They did this while retain.
ing all the qualities of flavor and
texture found in the large domes-
tic birds.
In the field of nutrition, science
and the farmer have worked side
by side to improve the quality
and reduce the cost of your
Thanksgiving turkey. There are
over 30 different nutrients that
must go into a proper turkey diet.
Today nutrition experts know
how to combine these 80 items in
the turkeys diet so he will grow
rapidly and efficiently, with a
maximum development of flavor
and a minimum expense to the
farmer and housewife.
The feed manufacturers COM
bine these 80 or more ingredients

One of the lateSt-and most sig
nificant-phases of the turkey
revolution came with the arrival
of the wonder drug age. With
such drugs as Enheptin and the
sSulfas and antibiotics to add to
animal rations, the farmer at last
has an effective weapon in his
never-ending fight against disease
in his flocks.
The wonder drug aureomycin a
few years ago introduced a new
technique for the general inn
provement of the health of tur.
keys. When a relatively small
amount of the antibioltic is fed to
the birds in their feed or water,
ii turns back the invasion of large
numbers of disease germs. The
turkeys grow better and faster,
and cost so little that anyone can
afford to enjoy them.
Today turkey is no longer a
rare luxury, for one or two spe.

Turkeys are plentiful the year
around, and are among the most
reasonably priced meat items reg

menu. Today a housewife can
prepare as many as so meals
from a single turkey, at cost of

Just what is Conservation Day.
and of what value is it? In the first
place, it varies from district to dis

to review what has been done in
conservation the past year, what's
planned for next year, movie or
slides on conservation, speaker on
an important phase of agriculture
and some coffee and doughnuts or
lunch to send you home with feel
ing of day well spent.
Value? Well, it's worth your time.

of you there; and remember a pat

Il Short Story

BROWN BOMBER, the ex-army
horse, had been in our family for
two days by the time my Dad got
home from his weeks trip to the
county seat. I certainly wanted to
know what he thought about Ma
buying a horse on her own, but I
only heard the tail end of what
they were saying to each other as l
came down stairs to breakfast.

he'll go over that pole fence by the
road every time somebody yells

stepped into one of his rubbers.
Ma followed him in from the
kitchen, the door humping against
the places where she's too fat. ''NeXt
time you can pick your own darn
horses!"
Thanks! That's what I planned
to do in the first place." Daddy
yelled from the corner where he
was looking for the other rubber.
He found it and started hopping on
one foot. ''where did you put
Grandma's love seat that I always
use when I put on these COMPOUNDED
things?"
MA LOOKED QUEER. Gan over

race horses next. You probably ever

AS MA TURNED to go back in

on the door. "Woe worth the cha:

When I followed her out into t
kitchen, she was staring out t
