Preparing Fowls for Market.

In many places 70 Is are fattened by ar
fcial methods. The fowls are confined in
close, dark places. with barely standi &
room, aud are literally stuffed alive. Can
such flesh be wholesome as food? will
own that the ba-nyard fowl is filthy scav-
enger naturally. Still, in my opinion, there
Ia no sweeter, tenderer fowls flesh than
that which is gained while running abroad.
Nevertheless, the more healthy the animals
are kept while fattening, the more whole
some flesh do they return. and this Cannot
be done in close confinement.
We Americans are imprudent H. our hab-
its, and in no one are we more SO than IL
matters pertaining TO our food. The fai OF
fowls is like oil and never digests, or is takei
up with vegetable food. and the worst OF
this fat or grease Is produced in the fowls
c.'nhned and stuffed. Il BOD solid meat cali
only be produced when the fowls are in
natural state of health and liberty. When
fowls are prepared for market, the objecl
appears to be to obtain the greatest weight
at the least expenditure Of food. Hence the
practice of confinement. Fowls thus kept
In confinement must be fat ened quickly
In ten days, or fourteen at least. They C an
not .rvive the pressure longer. But the
pubic appetite demands fat fowls, and this
demand must be gratified. When the pub

Sold Himself.

A Correctionville farmer sold n load
of corn at that town the other day.
When 1t was weighed he slyly stepped
on the scales. and then drove off to un-
load. When the wagon was weighed
he took good care not TO be in IL. and
congratulated himself that he had
cheated the buyer In good shape.
The grain-dealer called him In, and
after figuring up the load, paid him in
full.
As the farmer buttoned up his coat to
go out, the buyer kindly asked him to
smoke with him, and then talked over
tue crops and the price of hogs, and the
likelihood of the Maple Valley railroad
uildinR ny that way, till the farmer
fairly squirmed in his chair with un-
easiness about his chores at home.
At last he could stand IL no longer,
and said he must go. The dealer quietly
said that was not to be thought of; that
he had bought the farmer at full weight,
and paid him his own price. and that he
would insist on doing rs he pleased with
his own property.
The raiser of corn saw that he had in
deed sold himself, in one sense, mt least.
he acknowledged his cheat and COM
promised the affair. Now when he
markets grain he don't stand ON the
