Better Breeding Said
Turkey Industry Need
Better breeding is the next big
step in establishing Oregon's turkey
industry on a firm and profitable
basis, is the belief of a number of
speakers at the second annual tur
key day, which drew some 200
growers to the campus of Oregon
State college recently.
This subject was introduced by
H. E. Cosby, head of the poultry
department, and elaborated on by
Noel Bennion, new extension spec
ialist. Bennion pointed out that sys
tematic breeding in turkeys is com
paratively new, even thought it has
been highly developed with chick
ens for many decades. Four factors
he suggested in the selection of tur
key breeding stock, as well as with
other animals, are the individual
characteristics, the ancestry, the
type or family, including brothers
and sisters, and the progeny test,
which means the actual performance
of the animal as shown in the off
spring. Bennion said that the development
of good breeding of foundation stock
will make it possible for commercial
growers to buy stock from these
foundation breeders. It may be pos
sible, he said, to breed out such
things as pendulous crop, crooked
breast and other undesirable qual
ities. The problem of providing consum
ers with turkey meat in smaller
quantities between holiday seasons
was discussed from a number of
angles. Herbert Beyers, manager of
the Northwest Turkey Growers as
sociation, is convinced that the plea
for "six pound turkeys" is impos
sible to meet, at least under present
circumstances of breeding and feed
ing, because such a turkey would be
far too expensive.
An advertising man, on the other
hand, suggested the possibility of
putting up turkey meat in small
packages of five pounds or less for
the retail market. A national ad
vertising campaign, he said, would
be too expensive for any one group,
but it might be possible to try out a
new marketing plan by cohcentrat
ing in some one western city to start
with.
