are the most tender and palat able in the words of the trade they are repeat birds a study of consumer preference dis closes that producers would find it profitable to concern themselves about the size of bird consumers want in turkeys the demand is mostly for 10 to 16 lb birds although experience shows there always will be a demand for a percentage of large turkeys 17 to 25 lb however the 10 to 16 lb turkey is the popular sel ling size in the large consuming cen tres and any great percentage of large turkeys in normal times is like ly to go begging for a market with respect to large and medium sized chickens it appears that the medium size will be the most popular with large birds in limited demand great britain has always favored a medium sized bird for many years and in the united

by any other ship of the allied navies or merchant fleets there are countless hundreds of fallen arches wending their weary way all through life and an equal number of short tempers and frazzled nerves as a result and what do we do about if just mostly grin and bear it i guess with more emphasis on the bear than the grin in fact we probably look on foot trouble as one of the many ills to which the flesh is heir to oh we may pare that corn or stick a plaster on it and we may get an arch support or a metatarsal pad if llicy help us thats tine if they don t well we just go on suffering thats all yet we often hear of some per- km wlto lias been to somebody or other and from all accounts you would think some sort of miracle had been worked on their feet but most of us an sceptical of such stories and pay tittle attention to them pamcr and i have both been a real doubting thomas in that respect but not any more no indeed we have both reformed nnd are now ready and anxious to spread the glad news abroad that you and i dont need lo always go limping our way through life you see in desperation we at inst took our sceptical minds and tortured feet to a foot cpeclallut and wt each came out with a pair of feet very different from the ones wo took in all for the price of a dollar foot and what docs the doctor do well ho first prepares the corns and cal- ioute by placing a cotton pat over them soaked with some sort of soft ening solution then he pares them and you dont feel a thing did i say pares themt carve would im n better word for as you watch him you wonder if lu is slicing off half jour fbol little pads kept in place with plaster are afterwards put over the corns and callouses and finally each foot is massaged with something so cool and soothing it makes you feel like a million dollars then you puton your shoes and socks pay your money and walk out with more comfort than you ever thought possible however this treatment isnt a cureall at least our foot specialist made no such claim he promised only to relieve our discomfort a friend of mine tells me that she finds it necessary to have her feet treated about once every three months and who can grumble at that and ill tell you somojthlng else even to sit in the doctors office is a rtvelatlon for people are coming and going all the time and it is in teresting to note their reactions while we were waiting our turn an old gentleman came out presumably after a treatment ills face was lit eraljy beaming he looked down nt his feet nnd he stomped them he went a few steps and stamped them again in fact he just kept looking at his foot as if he couldnt believe they belonged to him that was surely a story without words wasnt it well i have passed this informa tion along to you in the hope that it will be of service to someone you dont need the name of tho doctor whom we halted because if you want similar treatment all you have trt do is look up the telephone directory of your nearest city
