world have been sent out Of this state.
but even there. a number OF years ago,
the art was In danger OF being lost
through careless handling of breedlng
stock. Other states may claim the title
Of cradle OF liberty and the birthplace
Of presidents but to Rhode Island be-
longs the name OF saver Of the turkey.
for It was Rhode island that fostered the
breeding OF these birds at a time when
other states we're paying them scant at
tention.
Profit-Producing Bird.
TOO few poultry producers realize that
the turkey stands ut the very top OF the
list OF protit-produeing birds. The fact
that turkeys will, from the time they
are six weeks old until winter sets In.
gain the greater part OF their living from
bugs. grasshoppers and waste grain that
they pick up in their wandering over the
range, assures their existence through
this period at little or no cost TO the
grower. In other words. they may be
termed self-sustaining foragers, desiring
only sufficient range in order to fatten
and grow strong.
Comparatively few persons particu-
methods in general use. The most popu-
larry among the city-bred. are familiar
with the methods employed In killing
a turkey. On farms where turkey raising
has become a fine art there are two
lar of these Is to suspend the fowl by the
shanks, head down, and cut or stick IL
In the roof OF the mouth with a knife
made especially for this purpose. This
sewers the arteries and outs into the
brain. causing insensibility ana a free
flow Of blood from the mouth.
The other plan Is to break the neck
by a quick jerk OF twist backward. When
the neck is completely dlsJointed the head
is pulled away so as to form an open
space in the neck. where the blood may
settle. This plan as been but little fol-
lowed, though the claim has been made
that when so killed fowls keep longer,
because there is no opening by which air
can get into the body. as there Is when
they are stuck In the roof OF the mouth.
This method has been more used for
chickens than for turkeys, and TO prac-
tice Il on the larger fowls requires con-
siderable deXterlty.
Then, OF course, there lie the old-fash-
toned method OF beheadlng the bird with
for many years and is still the rule on
farms that are not quite up TO date.
But. after all. It is the turkey itself
that matters most. Select a compare
lively young bird, within the one-year
limit, well fleshed. tender as to skin and
wishbone, cook It we'll, stuff It to taste,
and there will be little left to wish for
after your Christmas dinner"
