"Wfs if Turkey Stampedes Checked by Lights One of the problems of the com mercial turkey producer is to stop the nightly stampedes. And nut al ways is It ail e,any problem to solve. Flocks vary in their tend ency to stampede. Some birds will scarcely ever leave, the roosts or the bed grounds: others make stampedes n nightly occurrence. I I lie causes lor stampedes are many; perhaps a stray eat, a wea sel, a dog. a curlew. Turkeys are about as flighty as a herd of rat tle; like the cattle, the more they stampede, the less it takes to send them flying through the nltiht. ' Lights seem to ho about the only thing that will bold stum . pedes in cheek. Where a roosting corral is available and lights are handy. It Is a quite simple mat ter to hold down stampedea by keeping a couple of lights burn ing at night, right Horn the time the birds are lirst put on range. A. grower following this practice claims he has not had a single stampede ror two years. Not everywhere are electric lights available and In their place, I ordinary road lights, these small ' round pots that construction , men burn at night to warn motor ists of danger, make a satisfactory substitute.. About four of these road flares, put on opposite sides of the flock alter they have bed ded down, work satisfactory. Lanterns are also quilt! widely us ed and arc satisfactory. These night lights serve the double pur pose oi warning off vermin and stopping these night stampedes. The cost is negligible In compari son to the savings in bruised and Injured turkeys.
