There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and hue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called hue cured. In hue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
aues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process DEVELOPS in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections Of this ripe,
juicy hue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, fue cured tobaccos.

saloon keeper. My reply was that for
one thing | had observed that the COM
panies pay their men in checks, and
that saloons are the most convenient
places in which these can be cashed;
and that also as a consequence OF the
lack of dining-rooms the men are liter.
ally compelled to resort to the saloons
in winter. The packer then dropped
the subject.
Prior to the last strike in chicago
the union officers made a computation
based upon ten thousand time checks
and found that the average weekly
wage in Packingtown was etween 30
and Sc; since the strike, conditions
have of course grown worse. A frlend
of mine who has recently been making
investigations for me stated that ne
stood in a saloon on a Saturday nlgn.
and gathered up the pay envelopes OF
the men as they came in and got thelr
checks cashed. He collected over d
score. and the average was less tnan
50; there were some as low as $l.IO'
This represented a weeks wages for an

prepared food, and with the pressure
of the foot upon the lever, the o is
forced through the tube into the crop
of the fowl.
THE CRAMMER is AN EXPERT.
The operator in charge of the cram

who bring the fowls from the coop to
him; he placing the tube down the
throat beyond the windpipe towards
the crop, fills the same by Il pressure
of the foot, always gauging the mount
forced into the crop by the hand
pressure upon it.
This manner of feeding is carried on
for a sufficient number of days to
make the entire period of feeding from
10 to p days. An experienced handler
knows just the time when the fowls
are finished ready for killing. When
this time arrives, they are speedily
killed, dry-picked, and placed in proper
condition for market.
The food made use of for this pur-
pose is Il mixture of meals of several
kinds, to conform to the requirements
of the market. Ground oats, corn
and middlings, mixed with boiled
milk or water into Il very dry mash
or mixed food is made use of for the
first II to ii days for trough feeding.
During this period, the fowls have
grit and plenty of water to drink
where they Il help themselves. So
soon as they show a disposition to
stop feeding themselves, all the food,
water and grit is removed from the
trough, and the stuffing machine is
brought into service. The same meals
mixed into a cruel are used for this

PROFITS IN CHICKENS.
Crate and Machine Fattenlng Bring
the Highest Prices.
T. F. Nc Grew.

Some time since we published an
article on poultry growing North and
West. and referred to the large num-
Der of fowls that are grown upon the
wheat fields of the Northwest and
which are purchased and shipped in to
the big packing establishments of
Kansas City and other western centres.
The packers of the west have estab-
lished enormous finishing plants, as
they are called, for the feeding, fat
tening and preparing of poultry of all
kinds for market. The fowls here are re-
ceived in large numbers, placed in
coops that hold from three to five
birds, according to their size, and are
'trough-fed'-that is, they are fed a
mixture of ground meals properly pre-
pared in troughs, and permitted to
eat as much as they will consume,
from three to five times per day.
Poultry crate-fattened in this way
will continue to eat well and thrive
from nine to twelve days. So Don as
they cease to feed themselves raven
ously from these troughs, what is
known as the examining machine is
brought into service. The manipulation
of the examining machine must have
experience in the handling and feed
ing of the fowls in this way. The
