DISCUSS TURKEY PROBLEMS
LEBANON New officers of the Linn County Turkey Growers
association plan new promotion ideas for the turkey trade of
1954. The trio was elected at Lebanon's 16th Turkey Day held
at the city auditorium on Feb. 3. Left to right: -Ted Sidor,
Albany, secretary; Milton Newport, Tangent, president,' and
Avery Swink, Lebanon, vice president Retiring president is
Stanley Lenox of Lebanon.
Peace Time Prosperity for
Turkey Industry Predicted
LEBANON "National econo
my was higher in 19S3 than any
peace-time year in the nation's
history; the transition from war
to peace production will continue
through 1954 but it will not be
come acute and this will be one
of our best peace years," Vice
President Harold M. Phillips of
the First National Bank of Port
' land told a large audience of
turkey growers and local busi
nessmen Wednesday.
The occasion was Lebanon's
16th Turkey Day sponsored an
nually by the chamber of com-
Home Safety
Health Topic
Janice Westaby, consultant on
health education for the Oregon
State Board of Health, spoke to
the Marion County Headth De
partment staff Thursday morn
ing on the board's home safety
prosram.
Miss Westaby told of the three
year home safetv program being
initiated by the state board. This
program was made possible by a
grant of money for this purpose
by the Kellogg company.
There were 333 home accident
fatalities in Oregon in 1952, ac
cording to Miss Westaby, as com
pared to only 20 deaths caused
hy polio. Burns caused most of
the deaths in children up to 14
years old. More children in this
age group die from burns than
die from from all the communi
cable diseases combined.
She recommended that people
lie more careful around the
home, eliminating hazards and
exercising precautions.
Miss Westaby addrcsed the
srroup on crutches, but claimed
that the injuiv was due to a
skiing accident not a home accident.
LEBANON CONSTRUCTION
LEBANON A strong up
ward swing in residential con
1 ruction was noted here during
January. Builting permits to
taled $25,825, and included three
homes costing $20,000; four resi
dences to be remodeled, $4,725;
one private garage, S600, and re
modeling another garage to cost
$500.
SATURDAY'
merce, northwest and Linn coun
ty feed and produce dealers and
the Linn county agent's office.
Approximately 200 attended, and
they came from all sections of
Willamette valley.
"Our economy is strong and
conditions will stabilize," Philips
said. "We are ready to meet the
necessary adjustment, and it is
my opinion that a sound econo
my cannot be scared into a de
pression." An optimistic outlook was
voiced by other speakers, C. W.
Norton of Portland, president of
Northwest Poultry and Dairy
Products, asserting that new mar
kets for year-around turkey con
sumption are being developed in
the armed forces in all parts of
the world. He said that with prop
er promotion additional markets
await the producer.
Growers were advised to con
centrate on heavy breeds, and to
continue the practices which
have placed the quality of Ore
gon hatching eggs and poults at
the top of the nation's list.
Panel discussions and talks on
specific problems of the industry
occupied the afternoon session
which followed a free turkey
dinner for growers. Noel Bennion
acted as moderator for panel
speakers Marlow Jenks of Tan
gent! Gordon Ryals, Albany; W.
T. Guetze, Salem, and Walt
Schwedler of Portland.
Said W. T. Guetze, "The tur
key of the future will be the
bird most economically grown,
and there will always be a mar
ket for both large and small tur
keys. In spite of the current con
troversy over the merits of white
and dark birds, I believe that the
color of the feathers will make
little difference in marketing."
Schwedler offered suggestions
for expansion of Oregon's hatch
ing egg and poult market. He
noted that regardless of the pres
ent swing to Beltvilles, there is
still a strong market for broad-
breasted bronze turkeys.
Final speaker of the day, Dr.
E. M. Dickenson, O. S. C, de
scribed symptoms and treatment
for certain turkey maladies.
"It is the obligation of indi
vidual growers to sec that only
healthy birds are sold," he
warned. "Careless of even a few
producers could bring state regu
lations most troublesome to the
entire industry."-
Jack Davis, president of the
Lebanon Chamber of Commerce,
greeted the growers and response
was given by Stanley Lenox, re
tiring president. Chairman of the
chamber planning committee was
L. E. Arnold.
Butter for

kitchens and cafeterias of Ore

Laura P. Wells, director of the
school lunch program for the

said today. .
And with this announcement
Mrs. Wells disclosed that for
the school children of Oregon,
the little lunch is big business.
. The Department of Educa

surplus commodities from the
V. S. Department of Agricul
