Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turkey Production in California The turkey industry in California is a well-established branch of agri culture. Like many other agricultural enterprises of the state, the turkey industry is highly specialized. Thus, while there are many small farm flocks, a high percentage of the turkeys are raised in large units on farms where turkeys are the main source of revenue. Naturally, many problems face such an industry. These problems are at present the subject of much research activity and, in consequence, knowledge in many fields of direct interest to those engaged in the turkey industry is rapidly increasing. In the following pages, useful informa tion gathered from the experience of those engaged in various phases of the turkey industry, from the literature, and from work in progress in the California Agricultural Experiment Station, is presented. Growth of the Turkey Industry. - Turkey raising developed first in the New England states and gradually spread with settlers to other sec tions of the country. Turkey production was for a long time confined to small farm flocks in California and elsewhere, although commercial fiocks (that is, the production of turkeys as the main enterprise) were reported as early as 1888 in this state. For a long time, however, there was little progress in the turkey industry, and in fact, according to cen sus figures, some decrease in the number of turkeys raised in California occurred from 1890 to 1910. By 1920, turkey production again increased slightly, and in more recent years there has been a rapid growth, which reached a peak in 1936 followed by an apparent decrease in 1937.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Turkey Raising in California Turkey production in the United States first started along the Atlantic Seaboard and has gradually come westward. In the East as turkey production increased, disease problems multiplied until there was a definite decrease in turkey growing. In recent years eastern growers have demonstrated that by strict sanitation they can successfully grow turkeys. Clean ground, houses, feed, and stock rather than medicines are-the methods used to combat disease. Prevention was found to be the only satisfactory way to control disease. During the time turkey production was on the wane in the East it grew in the western section of the United States. Less turkey and poultry population in this section and particularly the drier climate tended to prevent diseases and parasites. In recent years, however, some sections that have become densely populated with turkeys and poultry have been having severe losses through diseases, parasites, or both. It is apparent that the western turkey grower also must pay strict attention to sanitation. By modern artificial rearing methods and sanitation, diseases and parasites are much more easily controlled than when natural methods of rearing are practiced. California is rapidly becoming an important turkey-producing state, for the long, dry summers seem to favor turkey production on a large'scale. Until the last two or three years, however, very little artificial hatching and rearing was done, though both have been successfully carried on at the California Experiment Station for the past. Fifteen years and repeated efforts were made to interest the growers in artificial methods. Turkey growers have ever been fearful of things mechanical and even after artificial hatching had again and again been demonstrated they were reluctant to believe that artificial brooding could be successfully accomplished in the field.

Download or read book The Oxford Companion to American Food and Drink written by Andrew F. Smith and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a panoramic view of the history and culture of food and drink in America with fascinating entries on everything from the smell of asparagus to the history of White Castle, and the origin of Bloody Marys to jambalaya, the Oxford Companion to American Food and Drink provides a concise, authoritative, and exuberant look at this modern American obsession. Ideal for the food scholar and food enthusiast alike, it is equally appetizing for anyone fascinated by Americana, capturing our culture and history through what we love most--food! Building on the highly praised and deliciously browseable two-volume compendium the Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America, this new work serves up everything you could ever want to know about American consumables and their impact on popular culture and the culinary world. Within its pages for example, we learn that Lifesavers candy owes its success to the canny marketing idea of placing the original flavor, mint, next to cash registers at bars. Patrons who bought them to mask the smell of alcohol on their breath before heading home soon found they were just as tasty sober and the company began producing other flavors. Edited by Andrew Smith, a writer and lecturer on culinary history, the Companion serves up more than just trivia however, including hundreds of entries on fast food, celebrity chefs, fish, sandwiches, regional and ethnic cuisine, food science, and historical food traditions. It also dispels a few commonly held myths. Veganism, isn't simply the practice of a few "hippies," but is in fact wide-spread among elite athletic circles. Many of the top competitors in the Ironman and Ultramarathon events go even further, avoiding all animal products by following a strictly vegan diet. Anyone hungering to know what our nation has been cooking and eating for the last three centuries should own the Oxford Companion to American Food and Drink.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex, Love, and Migration goes beyond a common narrative of women's exploitation as a feature of migration in the early twenty-first century, a story that features young women from poor countries who cross borders to work in low paid and often intimate labor. Alexia Bloch argues that the mobility of women is marked not only by risks but also by personal and social transformation as migration fundamentally reshapes women's emotional worlds and aspirations. Bloch documents how, as women have crossed borders between the former Soviet Union and Turkey since the early 1990s, they have forged new forms of intimacy in their households in Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia, but also in Istanbul, where they often work for years on end. Sex, Love, and Migration takes as its subject the lives of post-Soviet migrant women employed in three distinct spheres—sex work, the garment trade, and domestic work. Bloch challenges us to decouple images of women on the move from simple assumptions about danger, victimization, and trafficking. She redirects our attention to the aspirations and lives of women who, despite myriad impediments, move between global capitalist centers and their home communities.
