DIXIE HIGHWAY.

The Dixie Highway movement 10
being pushed vigorously by its promo
ters Every effort possible should be
made by the people of Marion and
Grunuy counties to have the route Sc
lectgd to go via this county 1t means
tn Expenditure of a considerable sum
of money, besides the continued oene
fit. Anyone who has resources Should
make offers of assistance in the WORK,
and some definite plans should be
made manifest as to what is expected
of the citizens of county to secure
the road. Perhaps Dixie Highway
Club should be reorganized in each OF
these couuties with membership
ged to put up certain amount In
each county to secure the road. A
membership of 300 with $s5 assessment
would gave $1,000 available fund.
MANY members could we'll afford to
contribute more. This at $500 per
miEe for concrete base road would give
about eight miles of such road in plac-

berlsnd mountain in this county
would meet Grundy county with a
similar road, make valuable high
way and open up valuable lands
which are not wanted at present ON
account Of no access by an easy road.
Tue mountain road here is in very
good ron iition and there are few bad
places b, tween here and Chattanooga,
that in Rankin's Cove being the
worst aud it should be the especial
duty of the county of Marion to look
after this short piece of road in order
to get this Dixie Highway to go thru
it.
The Dixie Highway will be better
than a railroad thru a community.
Thou .ands of tourists from northern
and eastern points will pass THU, stop
ping at hotels and farm bousss, buy
ing supplies, and possibly taking
liking to some particular place and 10
eating a business there. 1t is the
greatest kind of an advertising
scheme for section, and those help
ing on it will certainly get their mon

BEST METHOD TO
KILL A CHICKEN
Use Pocket Knife Blade To
Pierce Brain Through
Roof of Mouth
PLUCK DRY IS BEST PLAN
ScaIding Fowls to Loosen Feathers
Has Tendency to Cause
Breaks Skin.

(By Leo J. Broscmer Division of Elk.
tension, University of Tennessee.)
The most satisfactory methods of
killing poultry is by sticking in the
roof of the mouth, and piercing the
brain with a common pocket knife
that has sharp point and blade Both
shanks of the fowl are tied with a
small piece of rope, and the loose ends
Of the rope are tied to some support
so that the fowl will hang head down
ward and at about the height of the
operators shoulder. BY pressing the
mouth open and grasping the head of
the fowl with the left hand, the blade
of the knife is thrust through the roof
of the mouth and up into the brain
almost in line with the eye; a cross
cut is made to sever the arteries. This
operation paralyzes the fowl instantly,
and the cutting of the arteries. allows
the fowl to bleed freely from the
mouth.
The practice of scalding before
plucking is generally followed Ere
quently the skin is scalded and breaks
and pulls from the body, leaving an
ugly dark skin covering. The dry
method of plucking is better In fol-
lowing this method the fowls are
plucked dry without scalding) imme-
diately after killing, before the body
of the fowl has cooled and become set.
Try this method on the next fowl in.
