And this very factor | has already caused some turkey growers to drop out of thd pic- ture completely, according to the Department of Agriculture. i Consumer preference for light- | er weight turkeys has caused | some growers to delay getting | poults started until a later time | than usual. Turkey growers in the United | States plan to reduce production | in 1948 by 18 per cent. If grow- | intentions the number of turkeys raised this | year will be 28,470,000 compared | with 34,667,000 in 1947. This the third successive year of reduction following the peak of 1945. The 1948 crop will be the smallest since 1938. Pennsylvania usually grows more turkeys than any other eastern state. and son, Donny, of Spangler, spent some time at their respcct- ive homes here.
