Selling Chicks a Day Old.

The Matching of chicks in quantities
and then selling them direct to poultry
breeders and fanciers is a business that
is developing all over the country,
largely doing away with the bother of
sitting hens and the detail and atten-
ton entailed by operating an incu-
bator. The plan is simplicity itself.
Experienced incubator operators put in
substantial Matching plants solely for
the production and immediate disposi-
tion of chicks direct to poultry people,
both amateur and professional. For
the most part the new method possesses
some range in its application. 1t has
been found that day-old chicks will
bear shipment to a considerable dis
tance, and that car ride of from ten
to fifteen and twenty hours is not con-
sidered extra hazardous. Prices for
day-old chicks are a matter of barter
between seller and buyer, something
depending on the breeds and strains,
but usually ranging $1.5O and up per
dozen.
There are several establishments in
this country which make this an ex-
elusive business, and enjoy Matching
capacity of from 1000 to 5000 eggs at
a time. All report a healthy demand
for their living product at remunera-
tive prices.

try, into New England, where large
fattening yards are conducted. These
yards are large plants with lots, some
thing like the stock yards of the large
cities, only smaller in size. The geese
are placed in the enclosures and fed
for heavyweight and fine finish to be
dressed for market. AS many as 10,-
900 geese are gathered at one or two
points ia Massachusetts, and fed in
this way for the winter markets. 1t
takes several weeks to properly finish
them and new supplies are constantly
coming in to replace those that are
sold off. The profitable demand for
geese of this kind extends over a period
of from nine to twelve weeks, begin
ming just before Thanksgiving and end.
ing in January.
No attempt has yet been made in
this country for the excessive fattening
of geese, such as is carried on in Ger
many, those so fattened with lis being
only prepared to a finish for roasting
nor has fattepipg or feeding for the
excessive size of the liyers ever gained
any consideration here. The major
per cent. of all the geese brought into
the markets for general consumption
are sold and the demand for them

FOOD OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
GUY ELLIOTT MITCHELL,

facturers that the addition of a pre-
servative to food does not properly
constitute adulteration because the pre-
servatives added are of greater COM
mercial value than the foods them
selves. Such a claim, however, seems
to be notl ing but play upon words.
For instance, benzoate of soda has a
greater commercial value, weight for
weight, than tomatoes, and the claim
has been made that for that reason
its addition to tomatoes actually in
creases the expense of the preparation
of tomato catsup. AS a matter of fact,
however, it permits the tomato pulp
to be prepared in large quantities and
preserved in barrels in a much less eX-
pensive way than can be done without
its use. 1t is evident, therefore, that
even though the preservative employed
is more expensive than the substance
to which it is added, the addition is
really made for the purpose of cheap
ening the product. 1t is not for this

WateI=FoWI in New England.

Broiler ducks are grown by the thou
| sands in several localities of Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and Long Island, as
well as elsewhere, the greatest num-
Der, however, coming from the first
named sections. One farm alone dur.
ing the year just passed marketed 81
600 broiler ducks from its plant. But
New England is the home or breeding
grounds of the best quality of market
geese sold in this country. The most
careful, the most determined and the
most successful breeders and handlers
of nigh quality market geese are scat
tered from Rhode Island to the end of
Massachusetts,.
The old-time common or gray goose
has been largely displaced by the state
ly Embden, Toulouse, African and
China species. The Embden and the
Toulouse are the result of union of
the efforts of the French and the Eng
lish. The African, the Hong Kong and
the China geese came, perhaps, from
the Asiatic countries.
Recently, at the Boston Poultry
Show, was exhibited the finest lot of
geese that have been shown in this
country for all time. One pair of
enormous weight of So pounds and the
Toulouse tgray market geese) almost
equaled them in size. Next to these in
quality is the African, so much valued
for the rearing of what are known as
the mongrel geese.
The white Embden, said to have
originated from the visit of swan to
some of the commoner flock of a town
of thesame name on the Continent, have
been carefully bred and selected until
they are very large, handsome white
geese, which seem to be valued first
as true-bred variety for the producing
of feathers and market poultry. The
Toulouse that came from France are
fully their equal in every way, except
that the feathers are gray or mixed
with gray instead of pure white.
What is known as the wild or Can
ada goose mated with an African, pro-
duces the mongrel goose, so highly
valued in the Eastern markets from
Thanksgiving through Christmas times.
When the Canada gander and the Afrl-
can goose become properly mated they
will be constant one to the other to the
end of their existence, growing each
year one or two broods of mongrel
geese that are ready for market during
Thanksgiving and Christmas times and
dress to weight at this age heavier
than either of the parent pair. The
quality of the meat is excellent, the
price obtained ranging from $2.75 to
81 each, according to the season and
the quality and finish of the individual
specimens themselves.
These, with the Embden, the Tou-
louse and the China geese furnish the
high-priced geese for the winter mar
kets. No one of these of the better
qualities is ever sold for less than 2S to
80 cents per pound, and there is ready
sale for all of them offered at these
prices. In addition to these, thousands
of geese are gathered from as far north
as Nova Scotia, down through all the
States Of the Western part of the coun-

In these days of so much talk about
pure foods, and with the protective
legislation by Congress on the subject,
the bulletin of the Bureau of Chem
istry, Department of Agriculture, on
Some Forms of Food Authorizations
and Simple Methods for Their Detec-
tion" is very timely.
Since the middle of the last century
the subject of food adulteration has
attracted a constantly increasing
amount of attention. In this country,
however, very little was done in this
line until about 1880. In 1881 the
Division of Chemistry began the study
of food adulteration, and since then
has given a great deal of time to the
subject. Since 1898 the origin and
place of manufacture of the foods
studied by the Bureau have been care
fully noted and special attention also
given to imported foods.
In 1888 the first practicable food
inspection law in the United States was

where the feathers are just right to be
plucked from the carcass without hav-
ing the bad appearance that of neces-
sity must be present if there is large
amount of down or short feathers
showing. Geese, to be properly mar
keted at their best, should be plucked
at the right time, then fed and cared
for so as to be ready for killing just as
the new growth of plumage is full and
complete and ready to be stripped clean
and clear from the body at killing
time. This is the scientific part, next
to the experience in the handling, feed
ing and caring for, which bring such
large numbers to the finest finish and
most desirable condition for selling in
the market.
1t is a sight one would never forget
to see eight or ten thousand of these
geese confined in lots or runways being
fed and cared for 'by attendants to
bring them to that perfection of mar
ket poultry not usually seen outside of
New England and New York City.
