TALKING TURKEY The main thing about your Christ- mas turkey is that it should be tender brown and well-stuffed. It matters little whether the breed was a Bronze, White Holland, Bourbon Red, Black Norfolk, Narragansett, or Slate. The proof of a bird is in the eating. Haw- ever, your turkey holds more than gastronomic interest, according to ornithologists of the Royal Ontario Museum. Young as it may be, its history stems back several centuries. Indians of the American Southwest first domesticated the turkey, a species foetid native only on this con- tinertt, Spanish explorers took Mexi- can breeding stock to Spain from whence it spread to other countries of the Old World. It reached Eng land between 1520 and 1540, It was brought back to America by the early settlers. In the course of time the several varieties mentioned alni'vessvere developed by breeding. Apparently all originated from, Mexican Stock. The Wild race which ;was once plentiful in eastern North Amerita seems to 'have contributed nothing to your Christmas dinner, although' your pioneer fore- fathers feasted Oct it. Wild turkey which once roamed the woods of Southern Ontario are preserved as specimens in the Royal Ontario Muse- urn.
