FATTENING POULTRY -FOUR
METHODS ARE EMPLOYED
Bv G. Arthur Husbandman, Bureau of
Animal Industry.

throat with his fingers. The neck
above the bolus is then gripped with
the thumb and first finger, which are
run downward along the neck, forcing
the bolus into the crop. 1t will prob
ably take from IA to 10 of these bo-
luses to fill the crop, depending on its
capacity. Some feeders practice this
method in connection with crate fat
tening. The attendant, after feeding
in the crates, feels the crop of each
bird, and any not having sufficiently
filed crop are crammed in the manner
described.
Fattening birds should always re-
ceive soft feed. AS they have no ex-
ercise they require a feed that can
be quickly and easily digested. The
following mixture is fed at the New
York establishment referred to under
the description of examining machine:
100 pounds finely ground barley, 100
pounds finely ground corn, 100 pounds
finely ground oats with hulls sifted
OUT, to which mixture is added 10
per cent of beef scraps. Buttermilk
or skim milk is used for mixing, the
former being preferred. A little salt
is sometimes added The birds are
fed twice day at intervals of twelve
hours, and are crammed for about
three weeks. 1t is important that the
intervals between the feelings should
be as nearly equal as possible.
Another ration may be made as fol-
lows: 100 pounds ground oats, 100
pounds ground corn, 80 pounds flour,
pounds tallow.

York state. A reservoir under which
is placed small force pump operated
by means of a lever worked by the
foot is placed on tripod. A tube is
fixed to one end Of the pump, through
which the feed passes when the lever
rod is lowered. This tube is Of rub
Der or metal. II rubber, it may have
a metal point. Metal tubes are more
easily kept clean. The feed is placed
in the reservoir, and is made into the
consistency of thick cream. There
are several ways of holding the bird.
but the following will be found simple
grip the bird firmly either between the
right elbow and side of the body, as
shown in the illustration or between
the left elbow and the body, which
ever is the more convenient. The
head is grasped in the left hand, the
first finger being placed in the mouth
to keep it open. The tube is placed in
the mouth and the bird is drawn on
until the end of the tube reaches the
crop, the neck being elongated as
much as possible. The lever bar is
gently lowered by the foot and the
food is thus forced into the crop. One
hand is kept on the crop and as soon
as it is sufficiently full the foot is
removed from the lever and the bird
is gently removed The operator soon
learns to know when the crop is full.
No stated amount that should be fed
to an individual can be given, for the
quantity varies with the size of the
crop. Great care should be taken in
preparing the feed to see that there
are no Jumps, for the tube is small
and easily becomes blocked.
Hand examining is a good system
where but few fowls are being fatten-
ed. but would be found rather labori-
Gus where many are fattened. The
feed is made into boluses. or balls,
which should be about two inches
long and one-half inch in diameter.
A large number of these are prepared
before commencing to feed. The op-
orator sits on a stool or box. firmly
grips the fowl between his knees.
and elongates the neck. holding the
head in similar manner to that
described in using the examining ma
chine. He then dips a bolus in skim
milk or water and forces It into the
birds mouth, pressing IL down The

Four methods of fattening poultry
are practiced in this country, viz:
Pen fattening, crate fattening, ma
chine examining and hand examining.
The first two are probably the most
common today, while the third is gain
ing rapidly as it's results are becom-
ing better known, and the fourth is
used only where but few birds are
fatteped.
Pen fattening is practiced by great
many people who do not have the
time and inclination to use other meth
DDS. The essentials of pen fattening
are quiet, darkness, except at feeding
time, and plenty of soft green feed
given at regular intervals, usually
three times day. Birds may be kept
in flocks of Is or 20, but the sexes
should be separated.
In crate fattening few fowls are
confined in crates and fed from a
trough. A crate six feet long, and IS
or 20 inches wide is suitable and is
large enough for dozen birds. Some
times such crate is divided into two
or three compartments, to 6 birds
being placed in each compartment.
But little room for the birds to move
about is desirable, for the less exer-
else the bird obtains the more readily
does it fatten. The top, back and ends
of the crates should be solid if they
are to be placed outdoors, but if they
are to be in building they may be
built of lath or Stats. These Stats
should be two inches apart in front,
so as to permit the birds to eat from
the troughs, which are hung just out
side of the coop. The Stats of the
bottom of the coop should be about
one inch apart to permit the droppings
to fall through. In indoor feeding the
crates should be placed in a dark
room, and just before feeding enough
light should be admitted to allow the
birds to see to eat. They are usually
fed three times day, and are permit
ted to eat for half an hour at time,
when the room is again darkened and
the uneaten food removed.
For the best results a machine is
essential, especially for the last ten
days, for otherwise the birds will not
eat nearly so much as they can digest
and assimilate.
Our illustration shows a examining
machine in operation at one of the
large poultry establishments in New

ACTIVE AGAIN IN MOROCCO
The Famous Chief, Caid Aufloos,
Has Occupied Magadore.
Repetition of the Casa Blanca
Scenes Is Expected.

Tangier, Oct. 12.-Tidings received
here from Southern Morocco, are any
thing but reassuring for the "pacifi-
cation" Of this distracted empire. 1t
would appear from credible native
sources that the famous chieftain,
Caid Anfloos, the "Raisuli" of the
South has occupied Mogadour, thrown
the local governor representing Sui
tan Abdel Aziz into Jail and assumed
control of that important strategic
point. Two French warships have
been hastily dispatched from Tangier
to control the situation at Mogadore,
but the best informed residents here,
knowing the character of Caid Anfioos,
are convinced that he will resist in
PREVENTION and they dread repetition
of the Casa Blanca bombardment. Re
ports regarding the submission of
fighting tribes had been received with
suspicion as they emanate from POI
litical and financial sources. The sub
servency of Adel-Aziz, to French con-
troll, including his acceptance of the
cross of the Legion of Honor, is in
creasing Mula Hafigs power Caid An
floos declared his allegiance to Mula
Hafig the latter part Of August.

The AVERAGE Fair Paid.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. 1.-THE Santa
Fe and Rock Island Thursday filed
with the state board of railroad COM
missioners reports on the blanks fur
nished by the interstate commerce
commission. The report shows that
the average fare per passenger per
mile received by the Santa Fe in Kan
sas for the year ending June 80, 1907.
was .0206S; for the entire line it was
02150; for the Rock Island in Kansas
02284 for the entire line .02232 The
Rock Island therefore received about
two and half cents per mile, while
the Santa Fe received practically a
fat two-cent rate on it's Kansas tusi-
ness.

BEST WAYS OF
HANDLING MILK
BY George p. Grout, North Da.
kota Agricultural College.

For many years past, dairy authori-
ties have held that milk and cream
would not absorb bad odors from sur
rounding atmosphere after milking I'M
til cooled to a temperature equal to or
below that OF the surrounding atmos-
phere and it was further believed that
milk gave off animal odors when warm
er than the air and absorbed others
when colder. For this reason dairy
men in general did not hasten to re-
move milk from the barn until con-
venient, and often left it there until
cooled nearly to the temperature Of
the surrounding atmosphere. Late in
vestigations on milk absorption have
disproved these facts, and it is now
held that warm milk will take on bad
odors just as quickly as the cold milk.
1t is very obvious, therefore, that the
milk should not remain long in the
barn. The quicker it can be gotten
out of the barn the better # good re-
suits and high price for the butter is
expected. Besides absorbing bad odors,
many of the changes which take
place in milk and its products are
caused by the growth of tiny bacteria
or plant life which multiply very rap
idly under favorable conditions. II
the best results are to be expected, the
milk should be kept as free from all
forms of filth and dirt as possible as
filth and dirt contain millions Of the
tiny forms which may grow and spoil
your milk and cream.
The farmer or producer should use
all possible precaution to keep out all
forms and trust to the butter maker
to put in the proper kind to produce
the desired flavor 1t is just as neces-
sary that the butter maker have
full control Of the cream as 1t Is that
the housewife have full charge Of the
bread making. The housewife uses
yeast to sour her bread and the butter
maker uses a starter to sour his cream
Either would sour without these, but
the housewife knows very well that
she would make poor quality of
bread without yeast. The butter max
er knows he can make only poor
quality of butter without good culture
but / have often heard the question
raised as to the Importance OF keeping
cream sweet until delivered to the
factory. The producer should strive
to prevent unfavorable bacteria from
gaining entrance into the cream, then
keep it cold and deliver the product
in a sweet condition for the butter
maker to handle. The result will
please the producer as 1t will mean
high quality OF butter and good-sized
monthly cream check.
