Tuna Gives
Competition
To Hot
Dog
By RAY FARKAS
United Press International
Washington - fUPD - Tuna
canners claim their product
Is in tile popularity parade
with hot dogs and hamburg
ers. Sixty years ago you would
have been marked down as
an odd character if you ate
tuna.
Tuna meal was used for hail
or chicken feed, or just
thrown out.
But a California fish can
ner one day found he was
running low on his big item
- sardines. He started to can
tuna. Since then, things have
gone swimmingly.
By i040, Americans were
eating tuna at the rate of
nearly 150 million pounds a
year. Now the figure is dou
ble that.
It average out to almost
four cans for each of us last
year. Said another way - 700
million cans across the nation.
The world's tuna popula
tion - like the human count -is
booming.
Fwperls say tuna Is easily
one of the most, if not the
most plentiful fish in the sea.
On the other hand, salmon,
second on the fish popularity
acale In the American stom
ach, is becoming ' relatively
scarce. We ate the contents of
about 150 million cans of sal
mon last year - roughly one
fifth the tuna total.
The salmon situation Is
complicated by problems with
Japan over fishing rights.
Japan, in turn, has its troubles
with Russia over salmon fish
ing along the Siberian coast.
The Siberian salmon comes in
the red variety.
Tuna, unlike salmon, is
found in every ocean in the
world. It seems most abun
dant in the Pacific.
Later the board members
and their husbands will gath
er at the Elks club in Ashland
for a dinner.
Sunday morning Mr. and
Mrs. Christian will entertain
the board members and their
husbands at a patio breakfast
at their home.
Mrs. Christian will be as
sisted by her stale secretary,
Mrs. Edward Stevens, Phoe
nix; Mrs. Harvey Parrott Jr.,
state treasurer from Jackson
ville, and Mrs. George Ner
ton, Talent, director of pub
lications for the state.
Coming for the meeting are
Mrs. J. S. Simmons, vice
oresident, Pendleton; Mrs.
Robert E. Scherer, Portland
Mrs. Don W. Read, Eugene,
Mrs. Donald H. Larson, Ban
don and Mrs. Jack Shumway,

TV Producer Job

By WARREN FRANKLIN
United Press International
New York-IUPIl-Audrey Gcl

some of television's finest dra

her husband takes the stand

work.
"He thinks I'm expending
my youth, strength and talent

energy expended and rewards

But Miss Gellen, 2G, who

Immediate danger of her
deserting David Susskind's
Talent Associates for a more
mundane, if less hectic, ex

Miss Gellen, whose attractive
freckles even managed to look

"You can't suspend this be

show must be worth crying
and fighting friends over."
Miss Cfcllcn, us associate
producer of the Du Pont

"The Browning V e r s i o n,"
"Harvey," "Hilly Budd," "The
Fallen Idol," "Ethan Fromc"
and "Years Ago."
AH of this almost didn't

she was hired by Talent As

recognition as being the 1
"worst secretary" they ever '
had. But her quick intelli- j

Mrs. W. E. Hammel, long-time resident of the Eagle Point
area, was honored at a parly recently which observed her
birthday anniversay. For many years Mrs. Hammel was
affectionately known lo many friends, business associates
and buyers as "Turkey Queen" since she and her husband
operated one of the largest turkey ranches in the area. Mr.
and Mrs. Hammel sold their 1800-acre ranch a few years
ago and now live in a new residence on Hammel road.
Birthday Party Honors
Resident of Eagle Point
Eagle Point - Carving
turkey for a large gathering
is not a novel experience in
itself, bu'. it has a facet of Ihe
unusual for Mrs. W. E. Ham
mel of Eagle Point. The novel
thing about il for her is the
fact that nowadays the tur
key she carves was grown
elsewhere than on the Ham
mel ranch.
A surprise birthday party
for her, recently, found her
performing this task which,
she says, after three years of
retirement from the turkey
busincs, still seems a little
strange to her. All turkeys
served at her table from the
year 1917 until 1957 had their
start in life on the home place.
Growing from an idea
which germinated on a Fri
day, the parly snow-balled
by phone and word-of-mouth
into the surprise affair on
Sunday. Over 40 friends and
relatives arrived at the home
of the honored woman bring
ing a politick dinner and
birthday gifts. Tables were
set up in the shady yard and
a variety of foods served from
them.
Many Attend
Sharing in the dinner, or
stopping by during the day
to sign the guest book, were
Mr. and Mrs. John Foster,
Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Bates,
Mr. and Mrs. Ilollie Swingle,
Mrs. Eva Garrett, Mrs. Lottie
Van Scoy, Mr. and Mrs. C. C.

all of Eagle Point.
Two years after her mar
riage to Waldemar E. Ham
mel, in 1915, Mrs. Hammel
became interested in growing,
as a sideline, what were called
"barnyard flocks" at that
time. Although a pear or
chard, dairy and beef cattle,
hogs, sheep, and diversified
fanning were other enter
prises on the 1,800-acre ranch,
it was eventually to become

Turkey ranch. Mrs. Hammel
is a lifelong resident of Jack
son county, except for four
years between 1D25 and 1929
when the couple resided in
her husband's home town of
St. Louis, Mo.
Large Enterprise I
From Ihe early '30s through
1944, when the original ranch
was sold, their turkey indus
try included breeding stock,
the sale of eggs, hatching of
young poults and marketing
of the mature stock, all in all,
a year around enterprise. Tur
key eggs from the Hammel
hatchery breeding stock were
in demand up and down the
west coast and even shipped
as far away as Canada. Eggs
and poults were supplied to
regular grower customers in
the Rogue valley, year after
year. At one time, baby poults
were alss shipped out of stale.
The Hammels in later years
took part in turkey shows in
Oregon and California, show
ing dressed as well as live
birds, and have a few rib
bons as mementoes.
A pioneer in the turkey
business in the Rogue River
valley, Mrs. Hammel was the
first grower to enter the
field with quantity flocks,
and the first refrigerated rail
road carload of "New-York
dressed" birds to be shipped
out of Medford were from the
Hammel ranch. During these
years, all processing of fin
ished birds was done by hand
in a huge shed, and pickers
came from miles around to
earn Christmas money. Buy
ers came in truck from sti'-h
distances as Eureka, Calif.,
Roseburg, Ore., and other
points over the slate to load
the finished poultry as they
wL-re dressed at the ranch.
In later years, processing was
done in commercial plants in
Medford and Roseburg.
Flocks Big
During peak years, flocks
averaged" between 10,000 and
12,000, with the largest at one
time numbering 12,000 or a
little more. Mrs. Hammel was
affectionately known as Ihe
"Turkey Queen," among her
buiness associates, buyers and
friends.
After the sale of the origi
nal ranch in 1944, the couple
built a new home just acrSss
the highway and continued
with the turkey investment.
Registered Hereford cattle
and a few American-bred sad
dle horses were added to the
activities of the new ranch,
until its sale in 1957, and
their retirement lo their pres
ent home on Hammel road
north of Eagle Point.
