WELL-DREssED FOWLS.
Nuies to 10 Observed In Preparing Poul
try for Market.


Rules to Be Observed In Preparing Poui-
try for Market.
a little carelessness in prenar;nr
poultry for market may very easilv re-.
duce the profits onc-third. The average
poulterer works hard enough to earn
ms money to make such loss ruinous.
The highest prices for fowls nrc re-
celved only by those who are able to
comply with the demands of the mar-
ket which they supply. There is no
universal rule for all the markets hut
several things apply in every region,
because OF natural conditions and IL
worldwide call for fowls plump, fresh,
young and not bruised or discolorcd in
any way. For this reason every one
preparing fowls for market may OBJ
serve the following rules profitably:
DO not feed the fowls for "a hours be-
fore killing them. Full crops injure
the appearance and are liable to sour.
Never kill poultry by wringing their
neclis. 1t is better to bleed the birds
in the mouth or neck and hang up by
the feet until properly bled. Do not
remove the head and feet, and in some
states the preference is for undrawn
birds. Some markets demand dry
picked birds, and others those that have
been scalded. For scalding, the water
should be as near boiling as possible
without boiling. Hold by the head and
legs and immense three times Keep
the head out of water, because it
changes the color of the comb, and
gives the eyes a stale appearance,
which prejudlces buyers against it.
Every feather and pin-feather should
be removed as quickly as possible and
without breaking the skin The bird
may be made to look plump by dipping
1T for ten seconds in water that is near
ly boiling hot, and then holding it un-
til chilled in very cold water. Hang in
a cool place until the animal heat is
entirely gone. 1t is easiest to dry-picl,
chickens while they are bleeding, and
almost impossible after the bodies get
cold. Great pains should be taken not
to break the shin.
In dressing turkeys follow the rules
given for preparing chickens but al
ways pick them dry. Dry-piclied tur-
keys command much better prices than
scaldcd ones Don't pack fowls in old
musty, or dirty and discolored crates or
barrels. Such packages are sure to de-
tract from the value of the shipment
in the eyes of the dealer or middlcman
Choose crates or boxes that are not too
large and that are new and neat Pack
tightly for short distances. stencil the
cases plainly and consign them by en-
press Write the dealer or telegraph
him few days in advance, and again
on the day of consignment, that he
may receive the birds and promptly
offer them for sale. A few cents ex-
pended in selling often return an equal
number of dollars over what would be
received Observation-Disclosures Sage. in

Protection Against yermip.

A poultry breeder suggests that ship
pers of fowls dust them well before
sending them away to customers. Last
year we received fowls from expert
enced breeders and shippers, and on
their arrival was not impressed that it
was necessary to search them for
''stow-aways." A few weeks later
luckily for his own coops, he took a no.
ton to examine them and found them
swarming. Shippers owe it to their
customers to clear their fowls of vermin
before sending them. Here is fact
the like of which this writer says he
has never seen in print A neighbor,
showing him the large basement room
of his barn where his hens have com
Portable quarters pointed to the large
heap of horse manure thrown in and
scattered about by the hens scratching,
and said he had seen no lice on his
fowls or abouh the premises since he
began to throw his horse manure in
there. A hint for such as keep fowls
and at the same time are SO fortunate
as to possess a horse.-Farmers Vol &c.

LIGHT ROAD MACHINE.
A New York Man's Substitute for Tho
Heavy Horse Kllers."

A Now York Mans Substitutes 10Y tbo
Heavy Horse Killers"
Regardless of the compulsion of the
law, self-interest in every rural commu-
nifty demands good roads. They in
crease the facility for marketing prod
uce, save in horse flesh and wagon re-
pairs, attract money-spending summer
visitors and enhance the value of prop
erty. The macadam and similar sys-
TENS are unquestionably the best, al
though rather costly ut first. But I'M
fortunately in many country towns the
usual method of roadmalsing consists of
plowing up the loan, clay, gravel and
turf and scraping 1t up toward the CEN
ter OF the highway, with more or less
oungllng attempts at smoothing. Spe-
cial machines for this purpose have
been devised, some of them heavy and
cumbrous, weighing from ., 1000 to 5000
pounds, needing from four to six horses
or oxen to operate them, and SO cxpan-
sive as not TO be turned around easily
on narrow road. They are costly in
more ways than one, not merely to the
town or district which buys them, but
TO the owners of horses which are
hltched thereto in service Hence the
road machine invented by Stockport
columbia county, N. W man and rep
resented herewith, may, perhaps, fill a
long-felt want in many parts of the
country. Only single sample has
been built, but it has been practically
tested. Its weight is only 400 pounds.
1t needs only pair of horses, can turn
easily anywhere, and the inventor
claims that it does better work and
does it more easily than anything else
of the kind.
AS will be seen from the accompany
ing picture. the machine is mainly sup
ported by one wheel, the axle of which
is secured to section of anglo iron
that serves as continuation of the
pole. and resembles plow beam. The
wheel is Hanged, in order to make it
run exactly in the line of draft. A
tendency to shift to one side results
from the angle at which the scraper-
blade is set with the beam. A stay-rod,
shown herewith, maintains this angle;
and it may he used, in cooperation with
the beam TO sustain u drivers seat. The
scraper- blade is six feet long, and
tapers from nine to twelve inches in
width. Boltcd on to the lower half of
its front surface are two cast-iron
plates, or shears The rear lever is used
to change the level of the surface of
the road, grading up from side toward
center, and also to lift the blade en-
tircly free from the ground when going
to and fro or turning around. small
wheel, not visible in our illustration, is
placed under the nigh" or forward
end of the blade, to carry that part of

GOOD FEEDING TROUGH.
Its Introduction in the Poultry Yard Is n
Great Economy.

Its Introduction In the Poultry Yard Is n
Great Economy.
well-constructed feeding trough for
fowls is a great economy in the poultry
yard. Without such an appliance an
enormous waste of food is sure to take
place where soft food is given every
day as it should be. Fowls that get a
good feed of scalded bran in the morn
ing will seldom be sick. The accompa-
nying cut shows plan of trough de-
signed by poultry breeder who says:
When first began feeding soft food in
the mornings used troughs but the
hens. would persist in Jumping into
them and soiling the food. put Gov
ers on them, raised so the hens could
get their heads under, but they would
grab few mouthfuls, jerk their heads
ont, and spill third of it on the floor.
After experimenting some time de-
vised the trough shown in the sketch,
and it proved to be just the thing. The
box is 10 inches high in front, inches
