Big Brooder House on Rankin Place
Harold Rankin of Rhea Creek alfalfa farm will receive 1,000 day old turkeys this week. A 14 by 70 foot brooder house heated by a coal and wood furnace, first of its kind in the region, was built to house them. Mrs Rankin visited Brownsville and Independence and toured large turkey hatcheries. The young turkeys come from hens on the Rankin flock. The note adds a local humor line about Bryan and the White House.
