Ing the geese occurred, says n writer
in Medical Talk Tor the Home. The
lock oi geese. numbering from to
80. was driven into the barn, and these
geese. one by one, were stripped Of d
portion OF their feathers, on the breast
the belly and part OF the back. The
picking occurred about the time that
the geese naturally shed their feathers.
These feathers were very valuable, and
constituted the basis of the Old fash
toned. New England feather bed
In those days. when the scene OF
picking geese was u common one. IL
never occurred to US that It was a spe-
cies OF cruelty. We were In the habit
Of seeing the sheep deprived OF their
wool, why not deprive the geese Of
their feathers? Indeed. that was what
the geese were for so far as We knew.
Comparatively few of the geese were
killed for food, and their eggs were
hardly numerous enough to make it
any object TO keep them Feathers were
the chief use.
Lattcrly, we are beginning to hear
OF the cruelty Of procuring live feath-
ers. II seems that not only geese, but
ducks and chickens even, are used for
this purpose.
Editors Of medical journals refer to
the cruelty Of depriving fowls Of their
feathers, and compare ii with the
cruelty Of viyiseCtion. They call at
tentiun to what appears to them to ~
an inconsistency on the part of anil
viyiscctiOnists. who. they say, have
never raised their voice against pick
ing fowls, but have confined their at
tentiOn to the yiviseCtionists who cut
up living creatures for alleged sci.
ientitic purposes. These editors seem
to think that the nu-vlyisectionists
are very silly people-that they should
Immediately turn their guns away
from the vivisectiOnists and level them
at those people who are in the habit
Of procuring live feathers by picking
fowls
We confess that this thought had
never occurred 10 Us before. It may
be that picking geese is cruel per
formance, That II was universally
practiced in New England, and so far
as we know still continues to be prac-
ticed wherever geese are kept. does not

to pick them while they are alive We
would not undertake to say that this

Having witnessed II so many times,
having assisted In the performance SO
often. our observations have been that
II the process is painful one the fowl
fails to put in any very violent pro
test II must be more or less disagree
able to the fowl To have the feathers
removed in the violent manner they
are plucked but whether the pain Ol
their removal in this way equals the
comfort which the fowl aftcrward en-
Joys by being relieved Of the feathers
