Large Profit Days Are Over, Turkeymen Told By MRS. A. H. COUNTS The days of large profits are over, South Carolina Turkey Growers were told here Friday. “The turkey business has been good, but if we don’t keep our selves attuned to the times, some of us may find ourselves by the wayside. We must accept the fact that the days of large profits are over,” Peter Crafts, of Grasmere, N. H., president of the National Turkey Federation said. Speaking before state turkey growers at Hartford Commun ity Center in Newberry County, the official said turkey production is basically the Same throughout the country. Some growers are making money, some breaking even, and some are losing money. It all boils down to good manage ment, he said. Mr. Crafts called for unifica tion of turkey growers on a na tional scale. He spoke of the need of better marketing meth ods, and the need of having a family-size bird in view of the consumers at all times. “The housewife is not to blame for not eating more turkey meat,” Mr. Crafts said. “The pro duction of the birds should be kept uniform, not just at special oc casions,” he said, referring to a shortage last Easter. He predicted that children, fed the “best meat in the world” in school lunch programs, would convert families to turkey eaters because children “have an influ ence over what Mom puts in the market basket. One of the state’s largest tur key producers, Waldo C. Huffman of Newberry introduced the speak- ed. J. Harold Mayer of Waiter- boro, state federation president, presided.

D. Capital City of a teeming prairie state—thatfg Bismarck, North Dakota. Located at the approximate geographical center of the State, Bismarck traces its history to the winter of 1804-05 when the Lewis & Clark expedition camped at Fort M and an, just a few miles from the present site of the city. Settlement did not begin until 1880 when the increase in river transportation caused the need for a town, first called Burleightown, near the present site of Ft. Lincoln. Later the townsite was moved and called “Edwinton,'’ and again the name changed to “Bismarck,** in honor of Germany's Iron Chancellor as a possible inducement for him to invest money in the settlement. Two famous army installations are in the Bismarck area. Ft. Mc- Keen and Ft. Lincoln. The famous Seventh Calvary rode from Ft Lincoln to defeat under the gen eralship of Custer at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. In 1889, following the division of the Dakota territory and North Dakota’s admission to the Union, Bismarck became the capital of the newly formed state. \ Early commerce consisted of fur, buffalo hide, and market shooting, which eventually gave way to cattle and wheat. Today, Bismarck is a great agricultural center. North Dakota farms pro duce hard spring wheat, durum wheat, bar^py and flax. Farm in come for the Bismarck area alone totals $188,579,000 yearly. Deposits of 800 billion tons of lignite coal adjacent to Bismarck are rated as the largest potential source of cheap power in the U. S., and chemists are discovering new uses for lignite. Bismarck is the oil cap ital of North Dakota, in the heart of the WiUiston Basin which en compasses the western two-thirds of the state. Beef is a big factor in Bismarck’s economy. Two of the newest and most modern sales rings in\the world lie on the out skirts of Bismarck and the cattle Industry rates North Dakota the fastest growing beef state in the nation. Based on current estimates, Bis marck’s population is dose to the 27,000 mark. Tbe city has outstand ing recreational facilities. Rodger Eargle, receiver of the purple ribbon was top winner and received a prize of $16.60. His pullets brought $2.50 each at the sale following the judging. Winners in the blue group in cluded three girls and two boys. They were Patricia Kingsmore, Sue Ellen Wicker, Anne Waites, Terry Chapman and Jerry Wicker. Each received a prize of $12.45. Their lot sold for an average of $1.98. Red ribbons were awarded to four boys and one girl. They were Jay McKittrick, Steve Metts, Jer ry Suber, Mike Griffin and Di anne Teseniar. Each received a prize of $8.30. The average selling price of the Rhode Island pullets was $1.77. The 11 4-H’ers were given 100 baby chickens in the early spring to raise.
