NOW AN ELECTRIC CHICKEN.
Birds Lose Nervousness and Thrive In
Marvellous Manner.

London.-An electric chicken Is the
latest Idea In poultry farming, accord
ing to Thorne Baker. When the chick
ems are electrically treated they lose
their and seem to thrive
In a marvellous manner
MI. Baker came to the conclusion
that the most profitable application Of
electricity to the farm was In poultry
rearing. Mortality was practically
nonexistent where suitable electrical
ton was used.
The vitality of the chickens treated
was remarkable. Instead of running
away when a finger vas put to the
netting they would rush up and peck
1t vigorously. They were SO highly
charged with electricity that quite a
distinct shock was felt in the fingers
on touching them, although the birds
were supremacy unconscious Of any
thing, and the sparks which few from
their beaks on pecking ones finger did
not appear to be felt In the least by
them.
