Live and squawking chickens are
not the only kind exhibited at the state
poultry show. Among the entries are
some birds that will never squawk
again. For they were murdered in
order to demonstrate the most ap-
proved methods of dressing and pack
ing poultry, and a comparison OF the
market quality of the varieties of
poultry.
1t is pointed out by poultry dealers
that some birds are more attractive
after being killed, picked and packed
than are others. For instance, one
dealers said, the White and Buff Ply
mouth Rocks, the White and Buff Or
pingtons ami the White and Buff Wy
andottes present much more attrae-
tive appearance dressed than other
varieties. Why the blonde and straw
| berry blonde poultry is more attrac-
tive when dead than the brunette
types is explained by the fact that the
black pin feathers of the dark
featered varieties discolor the flesh.
