TO- FATTEN TURKEYS STARVE THEM NEARLY TO DEATH Did you ever hear of anyone fatten Ing turkeya by starving them nearly to death T Well, just listen: "That fattest turkeys tn the Portland market T Well, I guess yea. They're the fattest turkeya In any market JulcyT Whe-a-ew! There's aa much difference between those butter balls hanging up .there and the average-corn-fed gobbler as there Is between an Ore gon apple end a Callforlan dried prune." And a certain Portland market mer chant atrutted up and down In front of hie, shop yesterday, a proud and satis fied smile flitting over hla facial land scape, . "Tee, there's your Thanksgiving bird. It's In a class by Itself with the rest of the turkeys I raise. Raise 'emT Course I da Nobody else In the world can bring up turkeys like mine. I've got the secret all to myself. I'll bet a new house and lot that I can fatten a gobbler up to 10 pounds that no one else eould bring above II pounds with all the breakfast food. and noodles he could stuff In him. And It won't eost me as much, either. "Want to know how I do It, ehT Naw, 'twouldn'l do. Would break my monop oly, y know. But pshaw! Tou're not a poultry merchant and I'll Just tell you If you'll promise to keep mum and not let my competitors know the secret And whatever you do, don't breathe a word of It to the newspspere. "Tou s, I don't overtrain 'em. That la, I don't overfeed them. Moat turkey farmers, y know, cram their blrda with al they can eat for weeks and month before Thanksgiving; and . no matter how much their eat some of them are thin aa cranes. Now, I don't do that I got my Idea from an old white mule I ueed to have on my ranch In the hllle. This mule waa a regular old four-legged Robert-The-Bobbert-The Big Mouthed iiin. He ate aa much aa my whole dairy of aeven cows all lumped together. Tet Old Whitey was simply a bread basket of bones. "Finally the mule disappeared. I searched for him everywhere, but with out auooess. ' I waa Juet coming to the conclusion that be must have eatea him self Into nothingness when one day I ran across him on a rocky bluff back of my barn, stack fast between two boul ders. The animal had evidently been reaching tor s choice tuft oX greet and advanced so far between the rocks that he waa unable to extricate himself. He had been there for three weeks to a day, but waa still alive, though he waa too weak to stand whan we got him out of there. "Well sir. in a few days that mule began to pick op wonderfully. In two weeks he was fatter than . he'd been since be was a colt and tn six ha was as fat as one of those turkeys?1 . "Did I apply the principle to turkey raielngT Tou bet Until four weeka before Thanksgiving I Teed my birds like anybody else does. Then I starve them for seven days. No sir, I don't give 'em a thing but water. Then 'I feed them the regulation diet again and the miracle performs Itself. Just look at "em now. FatT .Why, you'd never know they bad breast bones.
