DRESS SQUADS FOR MARKET
After Penetrating Brain With Sharp
Knife Bird ls Allowed to Bleed
Thoroughly.

(By MICHAEL K BOYER. New Jersey
One-half dozen or more SQUAD are
hung On the rack at one time. The
wings of each are then locked, which
is done by drawing the wings closely
together in the back, allowing one
wing to overlap the other. It holds
them firmly and causes no pain.
The mouth Of the SQUAD is held open
with the thumb and first finger Of the
left hand, the head and shoulders be-
ing held in the left hand. with a knife
in the right hand the blade is inserted
through the crown of the head, pene.
trating the brain.
At once the operator releases his
grasp and allows the bird to bleed
thoroughly before starting to pluck the
feathers.
By the time about half a dozen Of
the birds have been stabbed the first
killed has bled sufficiently to be ready
for picking. The SQUAD is then re
moved from the rack and held In the
hands while plucking the feathers.
This method Is said to be the most
rapid, 1t being found that from 100 to
$50 squad can thus be dressed in a
day by a good operator.
Some pigeon men believe in holding
the bird while killing. but It has been
proven hat birds held do not bleed so
thoroughly as when hanging, owing to
the fact that the hand more or less
congresses the fine veins, thus retard
ing the how Of blood.
When a bird is not sufficiently bled
ii shows itself In blisters. These Bills.
ters are red blotches that form on the
backs Of the birds, and which develop
by the time the %carcasses reach the
market.
Fresh water should be given twice
daily. but only the very best Of grain.
Avoid damaged stun.
Do not fail to bear in mind that the
profit is derived only from the mated
pairs.

Meat Ration for Hens.

The effect of meat rations for hens
was tested at the West Virginia ex-
pertinent station. where one pen Of
fowls received a ration largely Of
corn and other starchy grains, while
another pen was fed partly on meat
and fresh bone.
The meat-fed fowls laid 1866 eggs,
while the granted fowls laid S,431,
or less than one-half as many as
those receiving the heterogeneous ra-
ton. The eggs from the meat-fed
fowls were larger, much hrmer,
rather better and produced Car more
vigorous chickens than those Of the
others. Both lots OF fowls remained
10 a healthy. vigorous condition.

FIX A sULKY PLOW PROPERLY
Should Be Adjusted to Pull but Little
Heavier Than Walking Machine
Of Same Size.

By r. W. HAMILTON. Department OF
Agricultural Engineering, Idaho Ex-
pertinent Station1
A sulky pillow properly adjusted.
should pull but little heavier than a
walking pillow Of the same size. This
is possible only when the downward
pressure and the side pressure of the
pillow bottom is carried by wheels.
Otherwise, the sulky pillow must pull
the harder because Of the additional
weight of the frame and driver.
The downward pressure Of the pillow
bottom is loaded upon the wheels by
raising the heel OF the land side from
the bottom of the furrow, which gives
the sulky more Suction" than the
walking pillow. Also the heel Of the
share is not fattened to give bear
ing" as Is that Of the walking pillow.
The side pressure of the bottom is
loaded upon the wheels by setting the
rear furrow wheel outside the land
side so as to remove all pressure from
the latter. Sometimes the land side
is removed entirely. Sharpen your
shares (cutting the furrow slice on
sumes 90 per cent. OF the drsft) and
try the above and note the results.

PROFIT IN ASPARAGUS
One Of Most Remarkable vege-
tables Grown for Market.
Ability 20 stand Annual Attacks Upon

tings and yet the bed Is a source Of
profit to its owner for a number Of
years.
It's ability to stand these annual at
taoks upon its resources, however. is
not miraculous. but depends upon its
respite during july and August.
During these warm months with the
right amount Of moisture and plant
food the roots regain what IS lost and
for the FIRST few years a well grown
bed more than makes up the loss It's
yield being on the increase from year
TO year. =
Attacks Of disease. a prolonged
period Of cutting, dry weather, or any
condition which deprives the plants
Of this season Of growth lessons the.
subsequent productiveness of the bed.
Tillage and proper feeding are the
near with which the asparagus
grower must reinforce It.
AS 500 as the cutting season Is
over-July first for the mature beds
and June first for the t~hree-year-old
planting-the ridges are plowed down
and a good fertilizer applied over the
crowns.
One successful grower uses a dress
ing Of $50 pounds of nitrate Of soda.
$50 Of muriate of potash mixed with
1900 pounds Of ground bone applied
at the rate Of 800 pounds to the acre
after cutting.
A previous dressing Of 500 pounds
to the acre before cutting is essential.
After covering with the fertilizer the
bed is left nearly level until a vigor-
Gus stand of spears has developed.
The soil is cultivated every few days.
When the graceful, feathery foliage
has fully developed the soil should be
thrown toward the plants from time to
time by shallow burrows on either
side. This ridge Of earth thus formed
serves to support the long stems and
protect the roots.
Asparagus-beds require a quantity
Of humus in the soil in order hat
the plant may avail itself of the nee
essary food elements.
Some growers plant such soiling
crops rs rye or clover, sowing the
seed with the last cultivation In the
fall and cutting it up with a cutaway
harrow in the spring.
The most popular method Of sup
plying the humus, in many asparagus
growing localities, Is by dressing with
compost. using ten tons and upward
to an acre.
A deep furrow is made between the
rows and the manure spread up, It be-
ing covered by a furrow.
Careful growers advocate applying
this compost between every other
couple Of rows, giving the alternate
spaces the manuring the next year.
This plan gives all the plants access
to the manure, but disturbs only half
of the root system each year by the
deep furrowing.
