The birds weigh from eight to fifteen pounds so that the cost of turkey alone would be from $2.50 to $4.50. The cranberries, celery, fruit, etc., would make the cost of the "goodies" usually asso ciated with Thanksgiving, pretty high. With wild ducks as .lumerous as they have been the past week, it is likely that they will take tbe place of the Turkey in many Coos Bay "homes. The price of chicken will probably also go a few notches higher on account of the demand that will probably result from many filing that turkey Is a little too expenslYO Tor them.
