fastened to the ceiling. with a two.
pound weight attached to the lower
end. This should be just high enough
to hang the bird to be picked at q
convenient height. The weight Is
used to save tying a knot each time:
as all that is necessary Is to wind
the string around the birds legs, and
the weight will hold 1t securely. Use
a box or barrel to catch the feathers:
and q small paint-can, with a hook
fastened to the handle, is hooked
into the birds mouth to catch the
blood and prevent It's soiling the
feathers. 1t requires very little prac.
uce to kill the birds in this manner
After the bird is hanged by the legs,
cross the wings at the back and
grasp the head in the left hand. the
back of the head in the palm: and,
with the end Of the second finger,
hold the mouth open; then. with the
knife in the right hand, make a dag.
onal cut across the roof oil The mouth.
Just where the arteries enter the
head. Then, with the point of the
blade. pierce the brain in about the
middle OF the roof Of the mouth,
which will loosen the feathers. The
moment the operation Is finished, the
bird should be plucked, as the cool
Ing OF the body makes the feathers
harder to pick. A common pocket

SALT IN THE POULTRY FOOD
No Living Thing Can Get Along En-.
tirely Without II and Chickens
Should Have Food Sailed.

Many people labor under the i'm
preston that no salt should ever be
put into poultry food, simply because
highly salted food. such as salt fish
or picked meat, has sometimes killed
chickens. As a matter OF fact, no liv-
Ing thing can get along entirely with
out salt In some form. Chickens can
always get salt In summer by eating
grass, which absorbs certain
amount from the soil. But in winter
1t Is different. During cold weather
all prepared chicken food, such as
mashes and boiled vegetables, should
be salted In about tho same proper.
