There are 52 toms and hens grown to maturity from a start of 75 poults. Turkeys are susceptible to many ills. Weather changes affect them when they are young and sometimes they just droop and die.

SOME FOLKS DlhiE OUT Turkey is frequently served today on the menus in res taurants, and is not reserved for holidays as it once was not too many years ago. Prep aration of the bird and stuffing recipes differ with cooks. Some prefer a dry dress ing with only onion and sage seasoning. Other cooks prepare a moist stuffing with celery, onion, green peppers and seasoning . . . cornbread is a favorite with Southern cooks, sometimes chestnuts, oysters or other extras are added. Regardless, those who have the festive meal away from home, get generous portions of dressing with their light and dark meat. At the Winema Hotel, Chef Bob Kempton was preparing tur key for the oven. He braises vegetables, onions and celtry and a bit of pork sausage with seasoning before mixing with moistened bread slices. He does not stuff bird but places still other coarsely chopped celery, onions and parsley around the fowl in an open pan for flavor. Dressing or stuffing is baked separately. Turkey is roasted uncovered lat 350 degrees for four hours for a 16-pound birdl. It is basted fre quently with butter during cooking period. Johnson Asks Churches WASHINGTON H'PI '-President Johnson urged Tuesday that the Thanksgiving procla mation issued hy the late John K. Kennedy be read in churches throughout the nation this Thursday as a memorial to him. The President's statement said: "One of the last messages of President .lolm Fitzgerald Ken nedy to his fellow countrymen was the Thanksgiving IJ a v proclamation which he issued on November 4. l!tfi-L I urge that his proclamation he read in the churches of the I'nitld States in their services on No vember 28 as a memorial to him. I also ask that the news papers, and the television and radio stations make it available lo all of the American people hy including it in their recocni tion of this first and most sol emn of our hol days. We dedi cate Thanksgiving Day. as we have for over 300 years, as a day lo give thanks lo God for His gills and the sustenance which He has provided in un dertaking the tasks of our na tion." The proclamation: Thf While House Thanksgiving Day. By the President nf Ihr I nil ed States of America A pryx-lamatinn: Over three centuries ago, our 111 forefathers in Virginia and in Massachusetts, far Jrom home in a lonely wilderness, set aside a time of thanksgiving. On the appointed day. they gave reverent thanks for their safely, for the health of their children, for the fertility of their fields, for the love which bound them together and for the faith which united them with their God. So ton when the Colonies achieved their independence, our first President in Ihe first year of his first administration proclaimed November 2fi. 178!). as "a day of public thanksgiv ing and prayer In be observed by acknowledging wilh grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God" and called upon the people of Ihe new Re public lo "beseech Him lo par don our national and other transgressions ... to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue . . . and eenerally to grant unto all man kind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to he best."

From New England's gently rolling bills to the high desert and the long shoreline of the restless Pacific, great flocks of turkeys have been groomed for their destiny. From plaintive, peeping poults, beneath a man-made ho ver or the gentle shelter of a turkey hen. they have matured in a few short months to broad breasted beauties ready for the oven. Some years ago the produc tion of fine turkey terns and hens was a majcr industry in Klamath County. They num bered in the thousands in com mercial flocks and many a farm family raised its own birds for family gatherings. This week a survey revealed that turkey raising is a vanishing business in the Klamath Basin, as out moded as high-bufton shoes and our thanks, most of all, lor the ideals of honor and faith we in herit from our forefathers for Ihe decency of purpose, stead fastness of resolve and strength of will, for the courage and the humility, which they possessed and which we must seek every day (o emulate.
