undrawn Cold Storage Poultry.

Undrawn Cold Storage Poultry.
The Department of Agriculture has
noted the results of Chicago cold
storage investigation on the effects OF
storing undrawn chickens.
Bacteria normally inhabiting the
intestinal tract" it is stated, ARE not
destroyed by cold storage, neither are
the eggs Of the bloway. These bac-
terra and. maggots develop during the
rise Of temperature that takes place
after removal from cold storage before
they are killed by heat. The bacteria
pass through the walls OF the intes-
tines into the perisoneal cavity and
liver, while the poisons formed by the
bacteria are yet more penetrating and
pass deeper into the muscles. These
products of bacteria, called ptomaines
are poisonous. In large amounts this
ptomaine poison results in death. For
it there Is no known antidote." 1t Is
also stated that when chickens are
kept for a long period undrawn, the
fluid portion of the intestinal contents
may pass into the adjacent flesh to tht
injury of the quality of the product

The effect of meat rations was test
ed at the West Virginia Experimental
Station, where one pen of fowls re-
ceived a ration of corn and other
.starchy grains, while another pen was
fed partly ON meat and fresh bones.
The meat-fed fowls laid 1856 eggs.
while the granted birds laid S,4S1. or
less than one-half as many as those re.
cefving the heterogeneous rations. The
eggs from the meat-fed fowls were
larger, much firmer rather better, and
produced far more vigorous chickens
than those of the others. Both lots Of
fowls remained in healthy. vigorous
condition.

COVERING CROPS.

Now Is the time to begin 10 piap
covering crops for the ground IN VIM
ter. This important matter Is usually
nut on until the fall work comes on
all at one time and then 1t Is often
wholly neglected. Large portions OF
the farm that should be covered WIN
some kind of natural mulch TO pre-
vent the plant food from teaching out
and being carried away by the rains
and melting snow and left entirely
bare. A little Investigation will con-
vince any intelligent farmer Of the
great value of winter covering crops
and little time given to planning for
them in advance of the season 1or
planting them will make teh work
easier and less expensive.
The management of the manure
heap in summer for fall use is quite

In many sections this month is the
beginning of actual hay-making. The
grasses, whether crab grass or othe1
varieties, should not be allowed to get
over-ripe before cutting. They should
be cut just as the first pods begin
to ripen, and soy beans about the
time the bean is half grown. These
all make excellent hay when cut al

Nothing is to to seen in the future

There is a demand for every ton of
