Fowls For Market.

While the main consideration to the
consumer is that the fowl should be
reasonably plump and properly picked,
the large city merchants demand GER
tain things in the way of packing
which the poultry raiser must carry
out II he would be successful in such
markets. One of the things is that
the fowls be shaped" before they are
packed, and while this process makes
n form that is not particularly pleas
ing, it is, perhaps, better than the mis-
shapen fowls which would result If
they were placed in boxes or barrels
without any sign of packing. To
make a shaper, first build frame and
then in this frame construct two
troughs, each ten feet long. These
troughs are constructed by mailing to-
gether two boards, seven-eighths of an
inch thick and six inches wide, at right
angles.
After plucking the fowls, lay the
carcasses in the trough, with the heads
hanging down, the legs alongside the
breast and the breast downward. BY
gentle pressure force the carcass down
into the angle Of the trough. Cover
each carcass with oiled paper; then
have an inch board six inches wide to
lay on the carcasses, and weight this
board down with brick or heavy
stone at either end. AS the carcass Of
the bird is slipped under the board,
move the lower brick or stone to OBJ
tain the weight. The carcasses should
be kept in this position for six or
seven hours, and they will then be
shaped and ready for packing in crates.
The illustrate shows the construction
Of this shaper in detail, and, as will

Egg Facts.

In order to furnish more definite in
formation about the poultry business
Secretary Wilson recently directed one
of his men to get together all the facts
available regarding the subject. The
results of this inquiry present some
surprising facts. According to the
latest available tables, the value Of all
fowls on farms is $S5, ,794, 900. About
S15,000,O00 is deducted from this sum
to represent the fowls under the age
of three months, so that the balance
embraces the stock that is kept for
breeding and laying. The estimated
number Of chickens in the country is
25OOO0,O00, producing for market in
one year poultry worth $l36000,000
and eggs worth S144,000,00O, total
value Of about $3.50, 100000. This rep
resents an income of 40 per cent.

The common practice is to call two
bushels of corn on the cob bushel of
shelled corn. This is not strictly cor
rect, and in some States the legal bush
el of ears is seventy pounds. But as
suming that two bushels make but
one, it will be easy to multiply the
length, breadth and height of the crib
in inches and thus get the number OF
cubic inches it contains. Then divide
this by 2,150, the number of cubic
inches in bushel, and you have the
number Of bushels of ears. This di-
vided by two will give you the ap-
proXimate shelled corn. Another rule
Is that two cubic feet of dry corn on
the cob will make bushel of sheled
corn. Then measure the length,
breadth and height of the crib and
divide these cubic feet by two to get
bushels Of shelled corn. These two
methods will give wide difference,
for in crib measuring twenty feet
long, ten feet high and ten feet wide
there should be by the first method a
little over 800 bushels, while by the
last method there would be 1000 bush
els. We do not believe that either
method is perfectly accurate, and that
the true measure lies between the two.

too largest. Louis Republic

ter of an inch longer than the thick
ness of the post and the gate-board:
the other arm should be about ten
inches long. Bore hole through the
post under the board near the edge OF
the post, put the threaded end of the
bent iron through and screw on the
nut. Have the same arrangement at
the lower part of the gate. When the
gate is to be closed, turn the bar so
that it will not be in the way and so
when the gate is closed it will rest
on the bar, Then turn the bar back
so that the upright piece will be in po-
sition over the board. If, after a
while, the bar works too readily, nail
may be placed in position, against
which the bar will rest when it is
turned.
The illustration, with the drawn de-
tails, shows the whole plan in such.
clear manner that anyone can con-
struct such gate and attach the
latches.

Loss in Cured Fodder.

1t has been found at the Ontario
Experiment Station that the smallest
necessary loss in curing occurs when
the corn is fairly well matured and
well cared, and contains not less than
30 to 80 per cent of dry matter. For
clover the results indicate that 2S to
80 per cent of dry matter Is better than
n lower or higher per cent. Corn well
matured and just in the glazing stage
with the leaves still green is in the
proper condition for the silo, and
clover in full bloom, or II trihe past,
and in good condition for hay, but
not too dry, is the proper stage for
this.

Origin of the Term "speiIbinder.


A New York attorney who left these
perplexing scenes but recently for
scenes which, If less perplexing, need
not be more interesting. was the au-
thor Of the word "spellbinder" This
gentlemans name was McCaskie. The
word "spellbinder" came into use
when he was chairman Of the county
committee of the city Of New York.
The different speakers under the EN-.
ploy of his committee were IN the hab-
it of reporting the meetings which they
had attended. These speakers were
anxious to boom their stock with their
manager, hence they would frequently
say, among other things, "Oh, bound
them with a spell" or 81 kept them
spellbound." The reports of the ma.
