The annual shi] mt n’.s oi turkeys for
Thanksgiving from Roseburg, whi h
have been in progress for the |xist week,
closed Saturday.
Prom figures given
by local dealers, it is found that the
turkeys shipped from Roseburg this sea
son numbered about 6,350 heart. This
represents about one-third of this season's
turkey product of the county and a rev
enue to Roseburg and vicinity of alxiut
$12,000. This amount could have l>een
greatly increased had there l»ei-n enough
turkeys to supply thed< mand, which was
greatly in excess of last year. One local
dealer stated that he couhl have found
ready market for at least six carloads if
he had had the turkeys.
With the exception of a few hundred
head which were sent to San Francisco,
all of the turkeys were marketed at Se
attle at prices ranging from 18 to 23 cents
a pound net weight.
About 10,000 head of turkeys were
shipped from Oakland ami a total of
nearly 3,000 hea«l from other points in
the county outside of Roseburg. Esti
mating the whole output at 19.000 head
would represent an approximate total
revenue of nearly $37,000. — Roseburg
