The I. C. C. has ordered the rail carriers to publish the new low poultry rates in tariff schedules to be effective not later than August 29, 1935. This will force the reduction in time to benefit growers of this dis d trict on all of this year's on late and stewing any turkey pools hens that may be dressed and market ed on the Atlantic seaboard. Realizing that the bulk of the tur-kev tonnaee from Intermountain ter ritory moves to population centers on the Atlantic coast, the Northwestern Turkey Growers' Association, GenerManaerer ial Herbert Beyers explains petitioned the I. C. C, a year and a half ago to fix reasonable minimum rates on dressed poultry shipped East from Utah, Idaho, Montana and western Colorado and to grant reparations for previous charges due to the unreasonableness of existing rates. Holding the rates were unreasonable for the future but not for the past, the Commission refused reparations but extended the class rates westward to bring about reductions averaging about 50 cents per hundred pounds in the four states involved. The saving to turkey men alone will amount to $30,000 to $40,000 a year. In ihe Brigham City district, the nresent rate is $3.00 per hundred while the estimated new rate in $2.57 i making a saving of about 42 J cents. Estimated reductions on 100 pound shipments of dressed poultry from other important Utah turkey growing districts are: American ForK, dac; Charleston. 351c: Ephraim, 30c; Man- tl, 29Jc; Moroni, 29Jc; Ogden, 39Jc; Payson, 36c; Richfiend, 24 Jc; Salt Lake City, 36c; Springville, 38Jc; Thompson, 56c; and Tremonton, 41c.
