Holiday birds will cost more, say retailers
You'll have to pay more for your Thanksgiving turkey this year and you may have to hunt harder to find just the bird you want. Demand is up and so are prices.
Retailers contacted in an Associated Press spot check generally said prices will average about 20 cents a pound more than in 1977.
The Department of Agriculture says there was 12 percent less frozen turkey in cold storage warehouses at the end of September than there was a year earlier. USDA officials say that supplies for the holiday season, when about 60 percent of all turkeys are sold, will be less than adequate, not enough for normal needs.
TURKEY FARMERS have been raising more birds than ever, but the increased production was not enough to keep up with the surge in demand that followed sharp rises in the price of red meat.
"When red meats got high, people turned to alternatives. They're eating a lot more turkeys," said a spokesman for Longmont Turkey Processors in Longmont, Colo.
Gulikers said he has been paying just over 70 cents a pound for turkey. The Thanksgiving retail price will be about six cents more a pound. Last year, Gulikers said, turkeys were selling at 48 to 63 cents a pound on sale.
A SPOKESMAN for the Minnesota Turkey Growers Association, whose members raise about 24 million birds a year and lead the nation in production, said there would be no across-the-pond farming in Minnesota sizes—particularly the smaller ones—might be hard to find.
"Demand is up considerably," the spokesman said, noting that an increasing amount of turkey is being used in ham and sausage products. Turkey in Minnesota, the spokesman said, has been running about 78 cents a pound, compared to 60 cents a pound last year.

How the energy crisis chills your chances
PLAIN TALK 2 FROM ARMCO ON FINDING A JOB:
How the energy crisis is you... Are you getting ready to look for the perfect job? More power to you. Literally. You'll need it. America is having trouble finding the energy it takes to make you a job.
Led by American ingenuity, the world today works byenserving plenty of energy. Thank goodness, the alternative is human drudgery. Yet because our system is energyintensive, a recent movement calls us wontiful. Our base of operations are so much more efficient that it is bad. Small is beautiful and the soft island isolated, local energy systems—even individual ones) is what we need.
A curious combination of social reformers, wilderness fantasies and modern-day mystics has brought America's energy development almost to its knees. They've stalled the nuclear application and have been struggling to expand and hammer oil. Their love of exotic energy sources—sun, wind, geothermal and tidal action—will last only until a few big projects get underway. Then, chances they'll find a way to turn them off, too. Our real battlefield is the fossil fuel industry.
Could you really depend on a windmill to power your hospital? How much steel could you make with a mirror
There's a direct connection between finding more energy and creating more jobs. More of one makes more of the other. By the end of this century, well need 75% more women. There are 180,000 American men and women have jobs. Over the next ten years
Our government seems to actually encourage this madness. Politicians entertain harebrained schemes to tax this, ban that, rig fuel prices and regulate air traffic on the market system, the only approach that can deliver as much of each kind of fuel as people choose to buy.
we'll have to create another 17,000,000 jobs for more Americans, including you.
Plain talk about ENERGY
Fair enough. But so far, we're paying more attention to the problems that we are to the energy itself. We've got to stop making every social goal an ideological crusade, and stop doing things that off if we ever going to get those 12,000,000 new jobs.
We Americans already know how to solve the energy crisis. We have the technology to reach solutions. Yet each solution comes with its own set of political problems. Natural gas mustn't cost too much. Offshore oil mustn't spoil our beaches. Coal mustn't raid the land or poison wildlife. Conservation mustn't inconvenience people too much.
Next time some energy zealot crusades for anything, test the crusade against this question. Does it produce—or save—at least one Bu's worth of energy? If not, it won't do a thing to help you get a job.
Let us hear YOUR plain talk about jobs!
We'll send you a free booklet if you do
Does our message make sense to you? Welk like to know what you think. Your personal experiences. Facts to prove or disprove our point. Drop us a line. Welk like your plain talk.
For telling us your thoughts, we'll send you more information on issues affecting jobs. Plus Armco's famous handbook. How to Get a Job. It answers 50 key questions you'll need to know.
