PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRTBHNTE, MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1932. SALES GREATEST PORTLANU. Ore., NOT. 2S (flV The greatest sale of turkeys ever made In Portland for Thanksgiving was being; concluded bent today. Never before bad the birds been slaughtered and sold In such numbers. The chief factor In forcing the rec ord movement was the price, the continued talk of low values having created an appetite for turkeys thst was filled by an avalanche of birds. The better quality presented dur ing the past few days, although far below the normal standard, resulted In better marketing but no Improve ment in price. The Portland market, however, with all Its record low values, stood up well along with other centers along the soast. The California trade was especially hurt by the extreme sup ply consigned to the market by Ore gon growers and distributors. At San Francisco the general top price available for shlppera of Oregon birds was about 16 cents for torn and fancy hens and 10 cents for medi ums. In Portland today the price was 10 to 13 cents sllve, and 13 to 16 cents dreased. E PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. 33 (AP) In the opinion of lef.oers of Mia trade a lower price for egs seem :d likely within the near future. B. J. Dixon, general manager of the Pacific Co-ops, said the under tone of the trade suggested a weaker movement and a lower price which may be forced almost any day. Late advance In the price of but ter was considered far too heavy and a dragging tone la suggested In the local and California trade as a re ault. Sutter continues to show seasonable make. Unusually good holiday movement of cheese Is reported, both out of primary sources and In the Jobbing trade. Prices appear generally firm, but unchanged. While there Is a shortage of hens of all sorts In the live chicken trade. aprlnger stuff remains very slow sale and weak as to price.
