It's Time To TALK TURKEY The Turkeys produced In the state of Oregon are recognized In all American markets as among the very finest In the land. The grower, of course, does his full share In producing a fine product. Commission men and buyers who do not take proper cure of the dressed turkeys are no asset to the Industry, and anyone who packs turkeys without first thoroughly pre-coollng them Is really a detriment to the producers, consumers, the legitimate denlers and the turkey Indusry generally. It Is a matter of record and common knowledge that practically every year large quantities of Oregon turkeys turn green and spoil right In their containers causing heavy losses and Injuring the reputa tion of Oregon turkeys. And now, we will tell you the reasons why: You cannot dress turkeys today, pack them tomorrow, and expect them to keep many days, unless they are properly cooled and such cooling cannot be done by Just hanging them up overnight, unless the weather Is cold enough to bring the turkeys down to an Internal temperature or 38 to 40 degrees, depending on how long these turkeys have to be kept In fresh condition. Anyone who packs these turkeys without sufficient and proper cooling should not be permitted by the producers themselves to handle a single turkey, , We ask you to realize that turkeys packed, let us say, between the fifth and fifteenth of November must he handled so carefully and cooled sn thoroughly that, first, they will never be frozen, end second, that they will be sound and sweet and In fine condition on somebody's table on Thanksgiving Day; this Is all the way from ten to twenty days after they are dressed. You cannot do that by Just hanging them up overnight, hoping that they will cool out. This concern hss now provided proper facilities for dressing and for Immediate cooling after dressing. We have one of the finest and largest outlets In the United states, through Bennett A Layton, Inc., or San Francisco. We shall do our best to pay you top cash prices under prevailing market conditions. We feel that we deserve the handling or your turkeys, both In your Interests, In the Interest or the community where these turkeys are produced. In the Interest of the turkey Industry generally, and In the Interest of the consumer who Is entitled to turkeys In sound condition. We ask that you call, phone, or write to os.
