THANKSGIVING TURKEYS
ARE TO BE VERY SCARCE
Turkej's for Thanksgiving dinner
are going to be a luxury both on ac
count of scarcity and price. This con
clusion is reached by buyers who
have made a canvas "of the country
districts.
It is estimated the turkey crop will
be one-half smaller than last year,
and that prices on the local market
around Thanksgiving time, when the
fowl is most in demand, will be about
2 cents a pound higher than a year
ago".
At the present time 13ya cents a
pound is being bid for ear lots, and
there are rumored sales as high as
14. This is an unheard of price at
this time of year. ,
The turkeys which mostly come t'.
the Chicago market are grown main
ly in Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana
southern and western Ohio, central
Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. North
ern Indiana also contributes and thi
Indian territory, Oklahoma, and Tex
as are coming to the front as turkey
producers, following the increase of
agricultural pursuits.
In the southern states the "crop"
has been ruined by drouth and short
age of grain crops las.t summer and
fall. These conditions compel farm
ers to sell. In the more northern
states, where the supply of food was
better, heavy spring rains killed off
the young turkeys as fast as they
were hatched.

An Automobile Smash I'p.
Excitement prevailed on Second
avenue this afternoon when an
automobile owned by J. IX. Davis, of
Davenport, came tearing up the
street at a fearful rate of speed. It
was soon evident that the occupants,
two well known young men of that
city, had lost control of the machine,
which, in turning a corner, collided
with a telegraph pole with such force
as to be completely demolished, but,
strange to say, the young men who
were uninjured, jumped from the
wreck and ran as fast as they could
up Second avenue, much to the sur
prise of all who saw the smashup. On
inquiry it was found that their wild
rush was to secure seats for "A Hus
band on Salary," at the Illinois thea
tre Wednesday evening, Sept. 10.
This is the time to use Rocky Moun
tain Tea. Keeps you well all tho
year. Croat blood life renewer. 05
