The small family of four has two choices â€" a tur. key that. weighs less than 10 pounds or turkey half weighing 10 to 12 pounds. If you are planning a dinner for two, a 6 to 8 pound turkey broiler may be purchased in most centers. If this is not avail- able, ask your butcher to quarter a turkey for you.

While some hunters reported a bird scarcity in certain town- ships. others obtained a com- plete bag in a very few hours of hunting. The overall pict- ure presented a fair increase in the harvest over previous years. Unusual weather conditions greeted hunters on opening day of the season, with a cold rain starting in the morning and turning to snow by after- noon. Hardy hunters were re- warded by good success in the TOWnships of Pickering, King: and Chinguacousy. capturing an average of one bird per hun- ter. over 1963. The time required to kill a pheasant averaged 6.4 hours of hunting, a decrease of about one hour as compared to 1963.
