greatly overrated, and observed that
highly rated spinach and other vage-
etables are no better than the soil
in which they are grown.
"Regional or national health is not
dependent on the so-called "bal-
anced diet” but on the diet that
utilises to the fullest certain miner-
als that are absolutely necessary to
health and must be in the soil that
nourishes the foodstuff,” Bromfield
declared.
Bromfield cited Deaf Smith coun-
ty citizens as noteworthy examples
of a regional population enjoying the
results of a diet containing a minute
but adequate portion of fluorine, one
of approximately 20 minerals of
which traces must be present in the
diet to insure health.
"For a long time,” he told his
audiences, "it was thought that the
high proportion of calolum in the
diet of these people accounted for
their excellent teeth and the com-
parative absence of dental ills. Ac-
tually," he stated, “the calcium is
only a contributing factor and the
fluorine is the real cause of the con-
dition." v
Bromfield pointed out that the
areas of sub-standard health and
progress in the deep south and other
parts of the United States will be
found to coincide almost exactly
with those areas in which agricul-
ture has lapsed, due to exhaustion
of the soil or soil of a poor nutritive
value.
Bromfield was the central figure
on a 17-car special train sponsored
by the Burlington Lines which tour-
ed West Texas last week. He spoke

COLLEGE STATION, Nov. IS—
Turkey usually means a Thanks-
giving or Christmas dinner to most
people. Or a banquet for some spec-
ial occasion.
That idea has always made tur-
key production a risky business. An
unsteady demand plus an uncer-
tain price made poultrymen think
twice before going into the turkey
business.
The consumer thinks twice before
buying a turkey, too. A small family
can’t use the large bird except for
special occasions and it isn’t always
an economical buy, nor easy to pre-
pare and serve.
F. Z. Bean blossom, extension
poultry marketing specialist for
Texas A ft M College, says that some
work has been done during the past
few years on selling turkey in forms
that would be attractive to con-
sumers the year around. He says
there are six fundamental require-
ments of merchandising which tur-
key products must meet before a
greater year around consumption
will occur—uniformity, economy,
nutrition, eye appeal, ease of pre-
paration and service. One turkey
product which meets these require-
ments is the boneless turkey steak,
and it also offers an opportunity to
use the large toms to an advantage.
Boneless turkey steaks are com-
paratively simple to prepare and
'many processors throughtout the
1 state offer them for sale. The meat
j Is removed from the thigh and the
i breast bones, cut Into four to four
and one-half ounce portions, and
then run through a machine such
I as is used to make veal cutlets. The
| result Is a generous serving of bone-
; less turkey, either light of dark meat
that is easily and quickly cooked.
The drumsticks, wings, giblets,
Iback and neck are left to be used
j In different ways. Borne firms sell
'these parts as pieced turkey, others
to canneries. Locker plant operators
have found that their customers
use these bony pieces for salads,
soup stock and roasting. The drum-
sticks, wings and back may be boned
and the meat made into the steaks,
but it requires more labor and con-
sequently the cost of such steaks is
a little higher.
Other turkey products which have
been developed recently to encour-
age greater consumption all year are
disjointed turkey, canned turkey,
smoked turkel, fryers and barbe-
cued turkey. They all have a de-
finite place In the better merchan-
dising of the Oreat American Bird.

DEAR DAIRY;
Nov. 10, 1047
What with Thanksgiving al-
most upon us, it is high time to
consider Christmas shopping. As
a lady said the other day, ‘You
can Christmas shop at Streu's any
day of the year.” This has been
true for many years as regards
fishing tackle, tools, china, glass-
ware, crystal, pottery, and many
other gift lines. It will also be
true from now on concerning
bicycles, tricycles, wagons, and
many other juvenile lines such as
electric trains, construction sets,
and other educational toys.
Our supply of trains, dolls, and
wheel goods is rather short this
year due to failure of several of
our suppliers to fill their commit-
ments—however we have several
Lionel train sets, extra track,
switches, Lionel construction sets
in a range of prices, good stook of
dolls, and many smaller items.
The gas heater situation is get-
ting rough. Water heaters which
have been plentiful, show signs of
becoming scarce again. Oas
ranges are hard to get, as are
bicycles, pipe, and manx, other
items. A word to the wise is suf-
ficient.
Just received; Severe ware,
Presto cookers, aluminum roasters
in several shapes and sixes, large
shipment of Duoo enamels in a
wide variety of colors, small lot
of Dupont outside white paint,
some good paint brushes, few kegs
of 8 and 16 common nails, a few
Case pocket knives and hollow
ground kitchen knives.
• Coming: Lots of things—I
HOPE.
Have a few Xmas light sets left
—Xmas wrapping materials—
novelty candles and other deco-
rating items.
No more duck hunting now until
Dec. 14th—most of the boys com-
plain that the ducks and geese
will be gone by then—that is
probably just what the authorities
bad in mind—there will be lots of
hunting going on in spite of the
law—and no doubt those who get
caught and fined will scream very
loudly about the curtailment of
their liberties—and It is because
of duck hogs that the present
drastic laws are in effect. Un-
fortunately, not all hunters and
fishermen are sportsmen, and,
unfortunately too many people in
all walks of life do not hare the
training of true sportsmanship—
there are too many who want
more than their share of every-
thing, and who will stop at noth-
ing in order to get what they
want. Why?
