Turkey Prices
Portland, Jan. 3. (JP) A
nominal tone prevailed on the
turkey market today with buy
ers offering 14 to 14 cents a
pound for toms and 16 for hens.
Resales to retailers were 1 to 2
cents higher.
Hi, diddle dee,
the cow jumps
over the sea
DESPITE all her experience
with the unusual, Mother
Goose herself would be sur
prised to meet a cow on the
high seas at milking time. Yet
this, in effect, is the daily ex
perience of a thousand crew
m'embers of our tanker fleet.
Fresh milk a pint a day for
every man has been made the
ruIe-
This would quite overwhelm
those ancient mariners who
sailed in the days of wooden
ships and iron rations. They
considered themselves lucky
and probably were if they got
a swig of lime-juice often
enough to keep away the scurvy.
Fresh milk at sea was beyond
dreaming about.
So the cow who jumped over
the moon is now jumping daily
over the ocean thanks to re
frigeration and to elaborate ar
rangements made by our mari
time commissary, a department
whose cupboard was never like
the one of that other Mother
Goose mother . . . Old Mother
Hubbard.
Epoch-making as it may seem,
the provision of fresh milk for
men at sea was a natural de
velopment for this Company,
which has always felt that the
best in fuel is the proper thing
whether for man or motor
car. And it's the judgment of
expert dieticians that for he
man fuel that delivers full
power without knocking or car
bon deposits fresh milk is
unsurpassed.
