USDA Worns Turkey
Producers To Go Easy
Jl L' S. tin key producers
want .prices on li\e birds to
average nearly the same thia
ye<a r as they did In 1965,
the U. S. Department of Ag
nculture has suggested that
the number of turkeys raised
for slaughter during the ma
jor marketing period ("Au
gust through December)
should not exceed last year
by more than 4 percent.
Marketings of this size,
combined with ipoults already
hatched, would 'result in a
total 1966 crop exceeding a
>ear earlier by about 10 per
cent.
These recommendations Jar®
contained in the “1966 Tut
key ‘Marketing Guide- Mar
ket Birds.” issued bv USDA’s

Service 'as a husmes's advi
