Choosing Chickens.

In selecting poultry, the best way TO
determine whether 1t Is young is to
try the skin under the leg or wing; II
it Is easily broken, It is young; or. turn
the wing backward; II the joint yields
readily. 1t Is tender; a fat fowl is best
for any purpose. After chicken or
fowl is killed, plunge It into a pot OF
scalding hot water; then pluck of the
feathers taking care not to tear the
skin; when 1t is picked clean, roll up .
sheet Of white wrapping paper, set fire
to 1t. SINCE off all the hairs. Poultry
should be carefully picked. and nice
ly singed. If a fowl is fresh killed. the
vent will be close, and the flesh have &

PRISON LABOR.

The Constitutional Conventions Com
mittee on State Prisons has agreed to
recommend a constitutional amendment
directing the Legislature to provide for
the occupation and employment OF con-
victs, but forbldding the contract sys-
TEN for prison work. That Is prOvis-
ion by which II Is designed to allow prison.
made goods to be used by the State or
any subdivision thereof, but to prevent
their sale on the public market by con
tractors and their competition with the
work OF honest labor.
This is sneered at az commUlistic
movement by the enemies Of labor organ
ization. because It was proposed and
urged by the representatives OF the labor
unions.
A contract system in the State prisons
IL vile one, as injurious to the Convicts
as 1t is unjust to the honest workingmen.
Under 1t the prison authorities and the
contractors are always found In collu-
sion. a contractor gets all the men he
can profitably employ, thus forcing the
convicts into one line OF occupation for
which they are probably wholly untitled.
The negro slaves on Southern plantation
were never worked as numerically nor
treated as cruelty by their overseers AS
the conVicts are by the contractors The
slave-owner was at least careful Of the
life OF mis- slave as property. The prison
contractor will work the convict to death
without mercy. What is a prisoners
life to him when he can get a new man
In his place at any moment?
By collision with the prison people the
contractor gets advantages that enable
him to sell his prison-made goods at
price ruinous TO honest labor. Every
body knows how the range and stove in
dustry in this State was absolutely
ruined by prison contract competition.
1t 10 proper that prisoners should he
employed. II Is the worst kind OF bru-
tally to keep them idle. 1t is in the
public interest and In the interest OF
humanity to teach convicts who have
probably never had an opportunity TO
attempt honest work before, a trade at
which they can in future life earn lv-
ing. But 1t IL an outrage to allow con-
Wet labor to come In competition with
honest labor for the benefit mainly of
greedy contractors.
