Turkey Production Again
On Increase in Oregon
Turkey production is on the
increase again in 1952. Growers
in Oregon expect to raise 5 per
cent more Christmas dinners
this year, according to Lloyd
Churchs field representative of
Northwest Poultry and Dairy
Products in Salem. This trend
was supported by graphs and
charts presented to Marion
County Turkey Growers Friday
by Noel Bennion, extension
poultryman.
Cost of feed and poults is ex
pected to be up this year and
chances of a successful year
more remote. Good operators
with efficient brooders and
good range are raising the in
creased turkey population while
Hogs Good Bet
On 1952 Market
Hogs will be a good bet on
most farms in Oregon in 1952.
Heavy marketing of sows and
a smaller spring pig crop pre
icted make a hog enterprise on
farms look good.
Efficient feeding, worm and
other parasite control, heavy
use of pasture, and the use of
surplus grains to produce a
few hogs will be a dependable
asset to any farm bank account.
Over 100 top quality bred
gilts from members of the Ore
gon Swine Growers association
will be available to eastern
Oregon farmers in LaGrande on
February 16, Prineville, Feb
ruary 27, and Klamath Falls,
February 29.
Association Secretary Ben
Newell, Salem, says all animals
are registered and guaranteed
to be bred. They are of quality
that can be used to start a pure
bred herd or improve the
quality of a grade sow herd.
Sale catalogues may be had
by writing the association head
quarters in Salem.
N. Marlon Banquet Tonight
Hubbard The second annual
Junior-Senior banquet will be
held at North Marion high school
Thursday evening, Feb. 14 at
6:30. A short program will be
presented. The mothers of the
junior class are preparing the
banquet and the sophomore girls
are serving.
there are fewer small growers
this year.
Emphasis is focusing on de
veloping a western market for
our turkeys to eliminate the
freight cost of shipping east.
The 2 V2 million turkeys in Ore
gon represent only a small
amount of food compared with
the estimated 9 million to be
grown in California this year.
Turkeys are responsible for
a good part of the AVi million
dollar poultry income in Mar
ion county last year. It's the
largest single agricultural crop
marketed in terms of dollars.
Good breeding facilities,
healthy poulls, sanitation and
good management on the range
and efficient timely marketing
all help make a turkey deal at
tractive. Chairman of the Marion
County Turkey Growers com
mittee William Chase of Au
rora, said his experience raising
10,000 Beltsville White fryers
had been an interesting one.
Fryers create a new poultry
market rather than taking the
place of chicken fryers or larger
turkeys.
Marketing is the big prob
lem and requires time and ef
fort to get shops to try the
fryer. Repeat business is good
once the customer has enjoyed
a turkey fryer.

"I don't want to go back,"
she said, 13 days after she left
her Yakima, Wash., home. "I
want to go to reform school."
Police, who would not iden
tify the girl because she is a
juvenile, said she gave herself
up rather than have them look
for her.
"The people I live with are
very nice and the husband
works for a typewriter com
pany, but we Just don't get
along," officers quoted her. "I
certainly don't want to go back
to them."
"My mother died eight years
ago, and my daddy four years
ago. The couple (in Yakima)
adopted me then and I have
been with them ever since."
The ninth grade student said
she has two sisters and a brother
who were adopted by others.
"My foster parents don't want
me to see them but once a year,"
she said. "They come to my
house each Christmas, but I
never am allowed to go to see
them."
Jackson juvenile officer John
Osborne said the Yakima police
chief told him by telephone the
foster parents are "a nice couple
and that the girl has a good
home in Yakima."
Osborne said the police chief
is conferring with the parents
regarding disposition of the case.
The black-haired, blue-eyed
girl said she rode from Yakima
to Boise, Ida., by bus, and from
there to Joplin, Mo.
After working for two days
nursing an elderly couple in
Joplin, she took another bus to
Hot Springs, Ark., where she
worked as a waitress.
She said she arrived here
Sunday with no money and
surrendered to police.

er division 91, the four "sitting
ducks" that paved the way for
the Inchon invasion in Korea,
will return to San Diego from
the Far East on Feb. 17, ac
cording to the navy.
The USS Mansfield, USS Ly
man K. Swenson, USS Collctt
and USS DeHaven were named

ist batteries were silenced by
ship and air bombardment.
The division recently was
awarded the navy unit citation
for the operation.
