One farmer on W illo w creek had a band of 500 last fall, and the herder used to take them on to the stubble fields in the morning and drive them back to tbe corral at night. T h e turkeys fattened on the scattered grain, and as they did not eat t h«j grass, the owners o f the fields did not care how many turkeys were herded in the field. F in ally, just be fore Thanksgiving, the band were driven to Coyote station and shipped to Portland. T h e producer was paid 50 cents a head tor the birds and thought he did w ell, while the «ame turkeys cost the consumers from '$1.50 Io $3 apiece."
