HIGH PRICE FOR TURKEYS . PREDICTED FOR HOLIDAYS New Britain Retail Dealers Also Express Opinion That Birds Will Not Be Plentiful. A i To a real New Englander a Thanks giving dinner minus the turkey is not a dinner, but judging from the re- ports of varjons retail meat dealers in New Britain turkeys will be scarce this year and the price will be as high if not higher than last year. Daniel Sullivan, manager of the | Mohican Market on Main street, said this morning that the prices of tur- key this year will he as high if not higher than last year. When asked as to what he thought the price would be, Mr. Sullivan said: “I have no idea what the price will be as it is usually withheld from us until the last minute, We probably | will not know anything in regards to the price and quantity of the fowl until the Saturday before Thanksgiv- ing. 1 can say, however, that the price will he high and even the frozen stock will not bg much cheaper. " | Mr. Sullivan also stated that most birds used in Connecticut are raised in Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, Mich- igan or Indiana. The northern birds are most preferable, A. Olson of the the Miller & Olson store system in this city told a rep- resentative of the Herald this morn- ing that he has not been able to se- cure any definite prices on turkeys this year, but from present indica- tions it will be from 70 to 75 cents a pound. Mr. Olson stated, however, that the prices will depend a great deal upon the weather. If it is cold and snap- py arouund Thanksgiving time the wholesalers will no doubt hold back until the last minute before they give the stores their supplies, Mr. Olson said. On the pther hand if the weather is warm and muggy the packers will figod the retail markets with the birds in order to dispose of them so that they will not spoil on their hands. He could not say as to whether the birds would be plentiful or not. . t W;m'ied | Gobbla Pshaw, ambassador from Turkey, has made representations to the department of state relative to rumors of a massacre of his fellow countrymen which, it is reported, will take place soon. delicate but Gobbla hopes to avert an international crisis.

May Reach Point Where It Yiill Gonsume All Wheat It Grows Washington, Nov. 21—An outstand- ing fact facing the American wheat farmer, says the annual yearbook of the department of agriculture, is that while the per capita consumption of wheat in this country has steadily increased, there has been a gradual decrease in per capita production.

It is shown that nearly a third of the farmers in the United States grow wheat. Only corn and hay exceed this " bread crop in acres occupied and nor- mally only these two crops and cot- ton exceed wheat in value. The wheat crop as a whole has much to do with the prosperity of the nation, says the yearbook, because the grain enters into foreign trade to a greater extent than any other crop except cotton. The country has exported a surplus of wheat in every year of its history except 1836, besides keeping pace with an ever-increasing demand at home.
