broilers are in tip-top shape to be
sent to the markets. But still there
are a few other things to be looked
into before the broiler is ready to
be passed into the hands of the con
sumer. A few rules, if carefully ob
served, will also help deliver these
same broilers into the hands of the
consumer in first-class condition:
Give no feed for at least 3 6 hours.
Pick dry and free from all pin feath
ers. Cool thoroughly before they
are packed. Never sever the neck
of a broiler that is intended for
shipment. Never pack an inferior
broiler in the same box with the good
ones, as an inferior one will ruin
the looks of the whole package.
Now, that the birds have been
without feed for a period of 36
hours, we take each bird and insert
its feet into a noose of stout twine
which has been provided for the pur
pose and which is hung from some
stout object and hangs about level
with our shoulders. Take a killing
knife and open the bird’s bill and
insert the knife into the seat of the
brain and at the same instant give
it a quick turn. This motion after
a little practice severs the artery
and benumbs the fowl at the same
time. Now if we pull the large wing
and tail feathers, we will find that
they drop easily, but we will have
to do this quickly as this period of
dropping only lasts for about a min
ute, and we must make quick work
of it. Carefully pick each bird, and
wash out the mouth and remove all
signs of blood.
During warm months pack care
fully with small ice and just tight
enough so that they will not slip and
slide in transit. Cheap nice baskets
are good to ship small lots in, for
private customers, but if we ship in
quantity, good boxes should be pro
vided for same.

Your paper is doing a great work
in this community. There were more
two-horse plows bought and used
last year, more seed selected through
the ads in your paper and used than
ever was used before. Everybody
seems to be taking more interest in
the new methods of farming and bet
ter seeds and a very large part of the
credit belongs to The Progressive
