emptied Of food, the next step In the
dressing of market poultry is the prop
er killing and bleeding of the fowl
A very large proportion of the I'M
slightly poultry in our markets, aside
from the rubbing and tearing of the
skin, is caused by an incomplete re-
moval Of the blood. Generally the
neck shows most plainly the presence
of blood In the fowl, or that a wrong
method has been used in cutting the
blood vessels in an attempt to empty
them. The neck is the first part to
discolor. becoming first red, then blu
ish red or purple, and finally green as
colored areas on the sides of the neck
close to the head which look like
bruises. These are commonly caused
by the killer holding the neck OF the
bird when cutting the veins, and
thereby preventing the blood from es.

Aside from the bad appearance of
incompletely bled chickens, their keep.

flesh loses its firmness sooner; its
flavor is not so good. the odor of stale
flesh and finally of putrefaction comes
sooner; and in every way the product
is more perishable.

EXCELLENT METHOD OF
PREPARING MARKET POULTRY
Problem, of Getting Chickens First
Condition of Interest { All Farmers-How
Kill Bleed. y
(By NJ. L. PENNINGTON and II. w
BETTS)

(By NJ. Z. PENNINGTON and II. w.
BETTS)
The problem of getting poultry to
market In first-class condition, as de-
termined by its appearance, flavor and
keeping quality" is no longer the
simple proposition that the farmer or
poultryman found It In the days when
cities were smaller and could draw up
on their environs for large share OF
the poultry which they consumed.
At the present time the quantities
Of perishable foodstuffs of all kinds re-
CURED by the cities are so great that
their Immediate vicinity cannot supply
the demand. Neither do the various
parts OF the country endeavor at the
present time TO supply either the
quantity or the variety of perishable
foods consumed In them, because eco
nomic conditions have made it advis-
able for certain sections of the coun-
fry especially adapted to the produc-
ton of certain kinds of crops, to raise
them in much larger amounts than are
xeeded for home consumption and to
send the surplus to the sections where
o shortage prevails.
Such condition of affairs has led
70 the frightening of the period be-
ween production and consumption. In

heartburn, that is sign Of Indigestion.
Get from any drug store here in
town a 50-cent case Of Papes Diapep-

mixed with acid. no stomach gas or
heartburn, fullness or heavy feeling
N the stomach. Nausea. Debilitating
Headaches. Dizziness or Intestinal
gripping. This will all go. and, besides.
there will be no sour food left over
in the stomach to poison your breath

Pape's Diapepsin is a certain regula-
tor for out-of-order stomachs, and be-
sides 1t takes hold of your food and

order therefore, that perishable prod
uce shall reach the market In good
condition, 1t must be handled In such
wise that deterioration will be check
ed as far as possible.
To accomplish this there have been
developed railroad refrigerator cars,
fast freights, cold-storage warehouses,
and all that vast and complicated sys-
tenn on which depends the feeding Of
the populace. In spite Of this system,
however, If care of the product at the
source Of production is lacking, deter
ioration will occur before the product
reaches the consumer.
If poultry is to reach the consumer
with the best Of flavor and wholesome
ness, the most attractive appearance,
and in the best possible state OF pres
ervation, 1t must be properly raised,
killed, and dressed. Granting that the
chicken has been bred and fed to be a
good eating chicken and that 1t is
ready for slaughter, the first step in
the preservation of it's good qualities
is to starve it for twenty-four hours,
allowing. however, liberal supply of
fresh, clean water during this period
