In killing and dressing turkeys on

In one hand sharp, narrow-bladed
knife is used to sever the veins In the
throat by making a small cut inside
the mouth on the right side Of the
throat at the base Of the skull. After
making this cut and bleeding begins,
the knife Is thrust up through the
groove in the roof Of the mouth and
into the brain at the back part Of the
skull. On piercing the brain the bird
gives a peculiar squawk, the feathers
are loosened by quivering Of the
muscles. and death is instantaneous.
In dry-picking the feathers should be
plucked Immediately. and IL the bird
has been properly stuck they come out
very easily. The tail and large wing
feathers are removed first, after which
the body feathers are pulled out. When
the turkeys are to be marketed locally
or are to be shipped but a short dis.
lance they are cooled to a temperature
Of about IS degrees Fahrenheit BY
hanging in the open air. provided the
weather is cool enough; otherwise they
are plunged Into ice water and kept
there until thoroughly cooled. After
cooling they are packed undrawn In
boxes or barrels. It Is inadvisable for
the producer without proper refrlgerat.

from their being exposed to warm
weather during transit are liable to

profitable to ship turkeys any. great
distance except In carload lotsT when
this is done the turkeys are cooled to
