Pampered Poultry.

From Country Life in America.
At the national stock yards at East st.
Louis chickens lead a life of luxury It
is not for them to scratch in the dirt for
worms and run eagerly after corn They
are placed, as it We're. under the Weir
Mitchell treatment. They live chiefly on
n milk diet and are carefully excluded
from any undue excitement. Two meals
are given them daily. and after each meal
the house Is darkened. that nothing may
interfere with their after-dinner nap.
The food given is a careful combination
of buttermilk ground cereals and ground
meats To insure impartiality large guam
titles are prepared at a time. To each
bird is allotted a certain amount. At
tached to the feeding stand is n rubber
tube, which Is pushed through the coop;
next chicken after chicken is taken out
and fed by inserting n rubber tube IN
each beak When the chickens become ac-
customed to this they open their mouths
eagerly for the nursing bottle as tina
feeder passes from one to the other.
After twenty-one days of this diet the
pampered fowls are usually ready to go
down the elevator to the killing depart
ment. 1t is asserted that chickens which
have been fGttened by this process are
equally tender all over when they reach
the table-that the drumstick is as tooth
some as the breast. This elaborate plant
has a capacity Of Il 600 birds at a time.
