FOY, (Speeeal Food Exyert of The E.ven- ing World.) The present unexpected wintr, condition is adding materially to the cost of the Christmas dinner. Train- loads of poultry and other meats in- tended for the delayed by the intense cold and heavy snows in the Middle West, Meanwhile the Idealers here are “losing their heads” and bidding up the prices on turkeys im expectation of a shortage. The Wholesale poultry houses in West 14th Street report a phenomenal de- mand for turkeys and geese. holiday are Late on Thursday the ‘whol price on good turkeys was °2 cents, put only the regular customers could get them at that. Maryland turkeys were out of the question, merchants who expected their regular supply were disappointed, small dealers from New York City, Jersey and Pennsylvania went through that country with their automobiles and cleaned up the turkeys.

If not, the dealers will bid up prices in competition with each other. George Alexander, one of the lead- ing retail poultrydealers in Wash- ington Market stated “that good tur- keys would retail at 60 cents a pound, while fancy Maryland would sell at 65 to 70 cents a pound.” Mr. Ale: ander said regarding the supply of] holiday poultry “Phere is an abundance of all kinds of fancy poultry to be had, except turkeys and ducks. Other kinds of poultry are reasonably cheap.” ‘The manager of one of the larg Harlem markets in West 125th Street, when asked what prices turkeys nermes pres (AeeSSS IS eee = wens orpaee would be retailed at in his store next week, answered: “We are here to serve the con- swmers, but we would not be doing that in my estimation if we sold tur- neasi~ * o. en enes € tonne ageee~ Ladies!
