The results Of the Investigations in
to the comparative rate Of decomposi-
tion of drawn and undrawn market
poultry made by the United States de-
partment Of agriculture during the sea-
son 1909-1910 have just been published
in Chemistry Circular 10. The condi-
tions of the experiment were strictly
commercial, as the fowls were killed
and dressed by the regular employees
of poultry packing house. were ship
ped in the usual one-dozen-to-the-bo box
package In a car-lot Of dressed poultry,
were received by a wholesaler and
handled with his stock, and went to
the retailer when he purchased fowls
from the Same car-lot, remaining in
his shop for the period which the mar
ket happened to require for their sale.
The shipments extended over a Pc
riod Of six months, from January to
June, inclusive, and the haul was
about 1,700 miles requiring on the
average Of 71l days. The birds were
mature hens, large and fairly fat, and
The method of killing was by bleeding
through the mouth and puncturing the
brain through the skull Just below the
eye. The carcasses were dressed ac-
cording to methods known respective

evisceration was conducted with suf1.
cient care to render washing unneces-
sary.
The routine of dressing, packing and
shipping, and general handling in
these experiments Is far above the av-
erage. In fact If all market poultry
should be handled SO well, the prob.
lem of decay would become insignifl-
cant.

scribed in detail in the pamphlet dem

ROOTS SERVE
TWO PURPOSES
They Not Only Drink Up Dissolved
Foods. but Also Serve to Hold
Plant In Fixed Position
Strong IN q Way.
tBy H. H. sHEPARp.)


Roots serve two purposes for the
plant. They not only drink up dis
solved foods. but also serve to hold
the plant in a fixed position.
The older and larger the plant
grows the more roots 1t needs to Sc
curely hold 1t in. place and to fully
satisfy its drinking needs.
All Of the roots of plant help
to hold 1t in place, but the youngest
and finest roots do the drinking.
These young. fine roots are called
feeding roots. They grow out in all
directions in the moist soil in search
of food for the plant.
At the end of each tiny feeding root
is little cap resembling the finger
of a glove. The function Of this little
root cap is to protect the tender root
let as 1t pushes Its way through hard
bits Of soil.
Although young and apparently
tender, these feeding roots are very
strong In way.
Through the power Of expansive
growth. they are able OF push slowly
through the very hard soil. and even
penetrate some rocks. bursting them
into pieces.
( With large plants, such as trees
they penetrate very deep down into
the ground where the soil is always
moist. but always as hard as rock.
