VALUE OF UNDRAWN POULTRY
Experiments Conducted by Department
Of Agriculture Show Birds Spoil
Less Quickly.

Poultrymen still discuss the rela-
tive merits Of drawn and undrawn
poultry. Practice varies in different
communities. Opening the body un-
doubtedly exposes the internal surface
to- the air which always contains mi
cro-organisms, and thus may hasten
decomposition; but 1t should be re-
membered also that the viscera decom-
pose more rapidly than other parts OF
the body, and II left they may taint
or infect the rest Of the bird.
In elaborate experiments with
drawn, partly drawn, and undrawn
poultry, conducted by the United
States Department Of Agriculture, II
was found that undrawn birds spoil
least quickly, and partly drawn ones
less quickly than the fully drawn ones
from which, not only the viscera, but
also the heads and feet have been re
moved.

Of the sun as mechanical energy the
