Resettlement program expands work stock with registered jacks
The Federal Resettlement Administration supplies a registered jack to Pontotoc county and another to Riley W. Cozad of Allen through a resettlement loan. Jacks from Tom Berry and Hineman farms aid Worstell and Bowerman communities. A registered thoroughbred stallion purchase is postponed until spring to save feed. Slingerland urges high grade mares and pooling to boost farm stock. Turkey meat sales shift seasonally with holiday demand. A marketing council meeting may form an association to pool birds for Thanksgiving and Christmas pools, attracting packers with high volumes and better pay.

Oklahoma Sending Turkeys to Market
Oklahoma producers prepare 400 to 500 carloads of turkeys valued near 3 million dollars for Thanksgiving markets. A 20 million turkey crop was reported nationwide, with costs up due to scarce greens and water. High feed prices and grain scarcity may curb heavy fowl weight, though early marketings look likely and employment rises offer a bright spot.
