Outlook For Industry Is
Good Says Leedy at
Luncheon Here
PORTLAND, Not. 25-(iT)-The
turkey market was fairly steady
here today with the demand chief
ly for hens and very small toms.
Few of the latter were available.
Receipts were described as "only
fair" orar Sifnday.
- The general top for bens was
29 to 30 cents a pound to retail
ers, with toms quoted at 28 to 29
cents. -
The baying price was nominally
24 to 25 cents for toms, and 25
to 26 cents for hens. Live birds,
"Portland delivered price, were 18
to 20 cents.
. Growers of approximately 75,
000 turkeys in the Salem tribu
tary are netting from $3 to 1 4
per bird on their flocks this year,
Jay C Leedy, manager of the Ore
gon turkey cooperatives, told the
chamber of commerce yesterday
noon in discussing "Raising Tur
keys -A Great Industry." At the
$3 figure, this Industry will bring
1225,000 profit to turkey raisers
In this area. .
The outlook fof the turkey In
dustry, is quite good for the ex
perienced and well financed grow
er, Leedy said, but he cautioned
the' inexperienced man against
jumping into the business just be
cause the growers are making a
dollar this year.
50,000 In County
In Marion ; county alone, about
50,000 turkeys are being produc
ed this year, with an additional
25.000 in Polk and Yamhill ter
ritory close ; to Salem. Marion
county probably ranks about fifth
Jn, Oregon turkey production to
day, with Douglas county still
leading and Linn, Klamath and
Yamhill following, Leedy indicat
ed. Oregon ranks about sixth in
national production, with , Texas
at the top.'
Leedy rketched the history of
the growth of the commercial in
dustry, until this .year an estimat
ed 18 to 20 millions of turkeys
are recorded, or about one for
every seven persons in the coun
ty. The 1935 crop is slightly un
der the 1934 turkey production.
The first large flurry of turkey
production came in 1890. when
11 millions of birds were found
on the census, but the figure had
dropped 30 years later to 3
millions of turkeys. High prices
of - the post-war, period brought
the turkey back, until in 1929.
17 .millions were chalked up on
the census.
; Mortality Lowered
The high mortality In growing
turkeys helps keep down the
number of producers, Leedy in
dicated, though he added that
growers have made excellent pro
gress and are now keeping their
losses under 10 per cent. Also a
marked Increase has been noted
In the quality of birds, with the
average today a 90 per cent pro
duction of No. 1 or prime birds
as against 65 per cent a few
years ago.
Turkeys require 4 to ;5
pounds of feed to put on a pound
of meat, Leedy said, which means
about 80 pounds of feed is ne
cessary to produce a 15-pound
turkey if the bird runs on green
pasture; otherwise, 100 pounds of
feed. The bronze turkey still leads
the production parade, though the
lighter Narragansett and White
Hollands are raised in increasing
ly large numbers.
Progress in preparing the birds
more attractively for market and
progress in grading are other fac
tors contributing to the increased
consumption of turkey meat.

Grain Hurt by
Peace Outlook
Oil Embargo Delay Swats
Bull Faction; Visible
Supply Down Little
CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-(J)-Eito-
pean postponement of moves for
an oil embargo against Italy gave
a solar plexus blow today to en
thusiasts for higher prices of
wheat.
The force of the Jolt that sent
the wheat market reeling was en
hanced iif by disappointment over
smallness of decrease shown in
the United States wheat visible
supply total. Bearish sentiment
received impetus, too, from a
United States supreme court pro
cessing tax decision, looked upon
in some; quarters here as an espe
cially significant setback for the
AAA law.
Wheat suffered a maximum fall
of nearly 2 cents a bushel, and
closed unstable cents low
er than Saturday's finish, Decem
ber 9 9-9 9 , corn - down,
December 59-, oats unchang
ed to ',4 off, and provisions show
ing 5 to 17 cents decline.
War Talk Subsides
A Quick result of postponement
of the proposed oil embargo was
subsiding talk of a possible Eu
ropean war.
Heavy concentrated speculative
offerings of wheat futures and a
dearth of speculative demand fol
lowed. Pronounced strength of the
Liverpool wheat market acted at
first as a counterbalance, and led
later to rallies but of only a tran
sient character.
Selling of wheat futures in Chi
cago came chiefly from houses
with eastern connections. Much of
the selling appeared to be profit
taking for recent buyers. Upturns
of the Liverpool wheat market
were associated with the fact that
world shipment last week totaled
but 8,128,000 bushels compared
with 10,132,000 the preceding
week and 10,111,000 a year ago.

French Monetary
Slump in Stock
j Of Selling at
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-Py-
Stocks closed under pressure to
day with losses of around 1 to 3
points recorded in a last-hour sell
ing wave that left the ticker sev
eral minutes behind.
During most of the session an
irregular tone prevailed, with
buying in a number of rails and
specialties proceeding side by
side with liquidation in other sec
tions! of the list.
Wall street quarters again men
tioned the uncertain French mon
etary! and political situation as
having caused uneasy selling. The
precarious position of the franc
was emphasized during the day
as the bank of France lifted its
discount of 6 per cent." The third
boost In ten days failed to buoy
the exchange value of the franc,
which still stayed far below the
gold export level from Paris.
Bonds suffered along with
stocks in the late selling urge. In
the loan market, also, an early
buying movement in rails, espe
cially secondary classifications,
was a feature. By closing time.

too brisk.
