From the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
The importance of age, sex, exercise,
food, and care as influencing tender
ness and flavor In poultry is pointed
out by home economics specialists Of
the United States department Of ag-
nculture In professional paper, Bull
letin 467, just published.
There IL much less difference, the
bulletin states, in the digestibility or
healthfulness Of the meat Of different
kinds Of fowls than is commonly sup
posed. Nearly all the nutrients and
energy Of poultry. as Of other meats,
1t Is pointed out, are utilized by the
health normal body. In all kinds of
poultry table quality depends primar-
lily on tenderness and flavor, and these.
in turn. are Influenced by age, sex: ex-
ercise, food, and care. Freshness Is
also an important factor. but this is
not merely q question Of how long
bird has been dead. but rather of
how far developed are the chemical
and meteorological changes which,
when they are carried too far, cause
what we call spelling or decomposition
in the meat. The heterogeneous which
cause dangerous changes are likely to
be introduced by careless and dirty
handling, and for this reason cleanli-
ness should be insisted on. The
changes take place most rapidly In
the presence Of warmth and moisture.
Hence. cleanliness. cold, and dryness
are at the bottom Of all the methods
Of caring for poultry on the farm, In
the warehouse, at the market, and In
the home.
General Considerations.
In regard to the general cOnsidera-
lions to be observed in choosing ppul-
try, the bulletin calls attention to the
fact that while the relative cost Of DIFF
ferent kinds Of poultry depends pri-
marily on the price, the proportion Of

The following statement Of the meth
DDS by which good table poultry can
be recognized by the purchaser is
made In the bulletin:
I'm q freshly killed bird the feet
feel moist, soft. and timber. and II 1t
was dressed with the head on, the eyes
look bright and full. Az 1t becomes
stale the eyes shrink and the feet dry
and harden; when too stale, 1. e., when
decomposition Is well under way, the
body turns dark and greenish or be-
comes Shiny. The flesh should be
neither fabby nor stiff, but should give
evenly and gentle when pressed by the
finger. It Is very difficult to distin-
guish between good cold-storage ard
freshly-killed poultry.
"One Of the commonest ways Of test
Ing the age Of dressed poultry Is to
take the end Of the breastbone farth-
est from the head between thumb and
finger and attempt to bend 1t to one
side. In a very young bird, say a
'broiler' chicken or a green goose, 1t
will be easily bent, like the cartilage
in the human ear; In a bird q year or
so old 1t will be brittle, and in an old
bird, tough and hard to bend or break.
Unfortunately there are sometimes
tricky dealers who break the end Of
the breastbone before showing the bird.
and thus render the test worthless. II
the feet are left on the carcass, they
furnish q mark Of age. In q young
bird they are soft and smooth, becom-
ing hard and rough as the bird grows
older. The claws are short and sharp
in young bird. growing longer and
blunter with age and use. Spurs gen.
orally occur on male chickens. On
male broilers and tender roasting
chickens they are small on older, high
er-favored ones they are prominent
but flexible; on cocks they are long
and attached to the bones Of the legs !;
on capOns they seldom develop until
the second year Of age.
Turkeys up to a year old are said
to have black feet, which grow pink
up to three years old and then gradual
ly turn gray and dull.
'The age Of pigeons can sometimes
be told by the color of the breast,
which becomes more and more purplish
as the bird grows older. Red feet
are also said to be sign Of age in o

edible to inedible material and the
thoroughness with which the edible
portions can be utilized should also be
kept in mind. Well-grown birds with
good-sized masses of moderately fat
flesh are more economical than either
young or overfatted ones. At or

CoId-Stora0e Poultry.
In discussing the use of cold-storage
fowls. the bulletin says:
"The way in which frozen birds are
thawed makes a great difference In the
length Of time they keep in condition.
1t used to be customary to thaw them
by soaking in cold water, but this has
been proved undesirable, not only be-
cause the water Is very likely not to be
clean but also because soaked birds
~ OA ~ 4uoAAty vCAy AuPiuiys OOoA-
ing In hot water, as Is sometimes done
In market for a rush order Is even
worse. A much better way is, to keep
the birds for "a hours at ordinary ice
box temperature as degrees to so de-
grees Fahrenheit). As has been al
ready stated, the sooner the birds are
used after thawing the better, and
whenever possible should be bought
stiff and thawed at home. This means
buying poultry a day before 1t is need
ed, but 1t is the surest way Of having
1t properly thawed. In warm weather
1t should be put in the refrigerator
to thaw, but in cold weather a moder-
ately cool room will do as well. II II
Is impossible to do the thawing at
home, the marketman should not be
allowed to do 1t until a short time be-
fore delivery.
although frozen poultry is hardly
to be chosen when fresh birds are in
the market, it undoubtedly has the ad-
vantage of furnishing chickens, tur-
keys, and other birds when the natural
supply II lacking and thus increasing

BOLD BOIES PENROSE

Boies Penrose Of Pennsylvania is
q bold man, and when he feels like 1t,

very obnoxious to those who do not

tors will join In the debate, although
I shall not ask them to do so. The
president will be addressed as was
Washington more than one hundred
years ago, and I think I can say that
this second appearance Of Mr.. Wilson
will be his last"

what he expected to do II he should

ents do not think he will be there I'M

MsxIcans TIIIers Of the Soil.

The Mexicans Of the lower class
naturally belong to the soil. This
statement is pretty well proved by the
fact that most Of them who enter this
country as immigrants quickly find
their way to the farm and plantations.
That they are efficient laborers in the
fields Is shown by the great inroads
that they have already made In re-
placing the negro and other types Of
farm helpers. In thousands Of in
stances they have advanced from the
position of wage earners to that Of
land renters, and gradually the more
