PATCHING CHICKENS.
SIX Points Clearly Established -
Tests Con al ucted by Canadian
Government Experts.

The results of experiments In fatten.
ne chickens for market In Canada are
given as follows. by the chief Of that
division. He says:
/. That pure-bred or high-grade
chickens can be reared more cheaply in
the fatteping crates. and present a bet
ter market appearance than do COM
mon chickens or scrub" chickens.
2. That there is more profit In placing
wel,-fatted chickens on the market than
IN marketing lean chickens
3. That four months old is the most
profitable age at which to market
chickens
4. That heavy chickens are not gen.
orally as salable as medium weight ones.
s. That the type Of chicken desired in
Canada or Great Britain Is young
plump bird, with broad. full breast
white-colored fish. white or yellow col
ored legs, without feathers or spurs. and
with a small head
6. That crate fattening OF chickens Is
the farmers business; that II does NOT
require a large outlay to fatten 100 OF
200 chickens: that the chickens are fed
from troughs. and that machine feeding
Is not necessary.
