Oregon State University specialist Jean Shipman notes broiler prices are at their lowest in 20 years and turkey prices as low as 27 cents a pound. Local, fresh broilers are preferred, and buyers are urged to check for prior freezing, excess fluids, and origin while planning freezer storage and meals.
To prepare birds for the freezer remove poultry from packaging and rewrap in moisture resistant material. Use heavy aluminum foil or cellophane coated plastic and store chicken or turkey from the freezer for six to eight months for best results.
A state report by the Oregon State Industrial Accident Commission notes a ten year drop in accident frequency with 1960 61 showing a record low of 3615 per 9 000 workers while fatalities fell from 138 to 125. The lumbering industry set a new low in fatalities and improved claims data reflect broader safety gains attributed to employer and worker safety awareness.
