Country Mouse and Town Mouse Fa-

Country Mouse and Town Mouse Fa-
bic Has Foundation In Fact.
Tie fable of the country mouse and
the town mouse has a foundation iE
fact Nice occasionally migrate in large
mum oers when food grows scarce and
travel considerable distances to fresh
houses. Farmers in a part of Perth
shire had good reason to become
aware of this fact when couple of
years ago vast swarms of mice invaded
their cOrnfields at harvest time.
But the mouse only travels when it
has to. The rat, on the contrary. seems
90 take yearly outing, in very much
the same fashion as do human beings.
Rats are the most migratory creatures
in the world. Troops of rats leave the
towns at the end of summer and spend
a month or two in the country. appar-
emily in order to enjoy the change of
food which the country affords at that
time of the year in the way of fresh
fruit and grain. Before the cold wealth
er sets in they are all back again in
their old quarters.
Reindeer migrate with the same reg
ularity as swallows. They move south
when winter sets in, but as soon as ev-
er the snow begins to melt they travel
steadily north. sometimes for as much
as thousand miles.
To end holiday by deliberate sui
eide is so strange a phenomenon that
for long time naturalists looked upon
the stories of the migration of the lem
mings as an improbable fiction Yet the
facts are beyond dispute. At irregular
intervals these ratlike creatures start
out from their homes in the Businesses

Packing For Shipment.

For shipping pack as closely as pos
sible into close boxes or barrels nicely
lined with white OF. manila paper. Do
not use brown, soiled or printed pa
per. Have the package completely fill
ed, so as to prevent the poultry from
shifting about in transit. Do not use
hay or straw for packing, as it marks
or stains the fowls and detracts from
their value. The above method can
only be used when the poultry is sent
to market without being packed in
Ice and when this can be done with
safety, either in refrigerator cars or
for short distance in cold weather, it
is by far the best. The greater part
however, must be packed in ice When
necessary to do this, use nice clean
barrels. Cover the bottom with bro
ken ice, then put in a layer of poultry,
then layer Of ice Continue thus till
the barrel is packed solid and full. Al
ways use perfectly clean ice for pack
ing. Head the barrel tightly and mark
its contents plainly on the head, and
never ship mixed lots Of poultry in
the same package if it can be avoided.

having been packed in ice a turkey is
at it's best and consequently commands
the highest price. AS soon as the fowl
is stuck and the blood is still flowing
pluck the feathers dry from it's body,
taking care in doing this not to break
the skin or tear the flesh. Nothing de-
tracts so much from dressed poultry
as torn places upon the carcass or
shank. Picking must be clean and
nicely done. When the fowl is plucked
til all animal heat is gone from the
body, being careful not to hang it
where it will be so exposed to cold air
as to be likely to freeze. Do not re-
move the head, feet or entrails, but
have the whole carcass, including head
and feet, perfectly clean.
The method known as scalding and
plucking is too familiar to need com
ment further than to say that care
must be taken not to scald Or tear the
skin or shank. Perform this operation
as neatly as possible. AS soon as the
animal heat has left the body the APP
pearance Of the dressed turkeys may
be improved by submerging for short
time in cold water, as this has a tend
ency to make them plump whether dry
picked or scalded. The plucking should
be done as quickly as possible. The
more quickly done the more readily
can the feathers be removed.
