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.

“Now, therefore, be it resolved-
that we the members of the New
berry County Board of Education
do hereby wish to recognize the
fine qualities of faithful service*
to extend our deepest sympathy
to the bereaved family and
friends, and to hope that his life
will be an example to guide and
inspire those who knew him.
“Be it further resolved that a.
copy of this resolution be for
warded to his family, and to the
local newspapers.”
STATE CAPITOL—Bismarck, N^. 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. When the pullets were
