CLEANING SEED.


All seed should be carefully cleaned OF
dust and chaff before It is given to the
birds. Many people simply blow the
dust away with their breath. This
method is both tiresome and insani-
tary.
a good plan Is TO take a cigst box,
remove the bottom and insert in its
place a piece Of perforated zinc. Then
when the box is shaken with a circular
movement the dust falls through the
holes and leaves the seeds perfectly
clean.
II any OF the chan remains take the
box into the open air and then from a
good height pour the contents Of the
box into another receptacle. and the
air will blow the light particles Of chan
