Poultry Department of Agricultural
College Experiments by Ship
ping to Oakland, Cal.
That egg eaters of Portland have reason
for thankfulness Is the assertion of James
lrydn professor of poultry husbandry t
the Oregon Agricultural College.
"Either the Orecon hens have been over
working to supply too Portland consumers
or someone In Portland has been working
overtime to bear the market." said Pro
fessor Dryden. "The result ha been that
soma of the best Oregon eggs have been
nipped to California as well as to Seattle.
There, has been a great disparity In. the
price of eggs at Portland. 6an Francisco,
and Seattle during the last month. The
poultry department of the college has re
cently mado lomt shipments of eggs to
Oakland. Cal.. and received the top market
price there Then they arrived which was
S cents a dozen. At that time tn
highest price for the same kind of eggs
la Portland was T cent. In "Seattle the
price waa about 83 cents.
"The experiment showed that Oregon
eggs could be laid down In California cities
In good condition as evidenced by the fact
that the Oregon Agricultural College eggs
topped the market and they were said to
be the best eggs received that day by the
firm handling them. After paying the
heavy express charges and commission the
exes Betted 10 to 13 cents a dozen more
than they would have netted In Portland.

CLEAN PICKED TURKEYS ARE WANTED
Coaaamera Object to Birds Not Attractive
la Appearance,
As Thanksgiving turkeys will sell at high
prices thla year, consumers will demand not
only good quality, but also the. best-appearing
bird. For this reason, shippers should
ace that the turkeys are properly picked,
according to Thomas C. Farrell, assistant
Federal Food Administrator.
'lt has been the practice of some grow
ers," said Mr. Farrell. "to send In their
turkeys only partially picked. The feathers
should be all taken off, except a few on the
bead and neck. Leaving a big bunch of
tall and wing feathers en the blrda does not
help their selling qualities. The crops should
also fee clean by keeping the turkeys from
feed for at least 13 hour before killing.
Ceese and docks should fee lightly scalded.
Chickens may be either scalded or dry
Vlcked.
"Shipments should fee made by express In
light esses, or paper-lined burlap bags, bnt
boxes are preferred. Turkeys that are small
or otherwise unfit should not be sent In for
the Thanksgivinr trade, but held bark nntil
they are la prime condition. There will also
be a good Christmas and New Tear's
market."

Active Selling Movement In Iiast
Hoar of Trading Carries
Prices Downward.
NEW TORK, Nov. 21. Erratic price
changes attended todays stock market,
trading falling to the lowest ebb In several
weeks until the last hour, when an active
selling movement efiaced numerous gains.
Moderate strength in the early and inter
mediate stages of the session was attributed
to prospects of less stringent money condi
tions after next weeks heavy payment
the fourth liberty loan. This possible rc
taxation was not expected to apply to time
funds.
Marine preferred recovered an extreme
setback of 6 points, with but slight recovery
following announcement of another incon
elusive meeting of the directors.
Coppers were exposed to constant pres
sure by reason of unfavorable trade condi
tions, yielding 1 to 24 points,
On the constructive side for a time were
rails, which evinced a fair degree of strength,
Industrials, including United States Steel and
former war equipments, but the variable ad
vances in these groups were forfeited almost
altogether at the end. Sales amounted to
560,000 shares.
Dealings in bonds were moderate, but
were diversified, the tone in the main being
slightly easier. Liberty Issues were steady
and Internationals Irregular Total sales, par
value, aggregated $9,673,000.

YOU TURKEY SHIPPERS
Listen to common sense. When you consign your turkeys to tha
average commission merchant he sells it to a poultry dealer and charges
you at least 5 per cent commission. When you ship direct to a reliable
poultry dealer you save this commission. We are wholesale poultry
dealers all the year around. With turkeys at about 40 cents per pound,
you lose 2 for every 100 pounds you don't ship to us. We receive load
, after load of turkeys every day. but our orders are piling up higher.
Wo still need 50,000 POUNDS OF PRESSED TURKEY'S and guarantee
