children engaged in the exciting
chase for the chicken which is to be
served for the family dinner? All

the barn, through the garden, until
somebody luckily falls upon 1t. An
easier way is to make a long handled
net, using a sound, well-made barrel
hoop An old hammock makes a fine
net for this purpose The net should
be about two feet deep. Lay 1t down,
mouth UP, put few grains Of corn on
top, pretend you are looking the other
way. and when chicken steps on the
net, TO pick up the corn, lift it sud
denly, tip 1t slightly to one side, and
you have the fowl safe If you are
particularly expert, the net may be
dropped over the bird.
