POULT POINTERS

bird grows older, the proportion of
flesh to bone usually increases, at
least up to the period of full maturity.
Often the large masses of flesh found
on such birds can be utilized more sat-
isfactorily than the smaller one found
on young and scrawny chickens.
Exercise affects the flavor and tex
ture of poultry flesh, as in any kind of
meat. 1t toughens the fibers and the
connective tissues, and lessons the
amount of fat. 1t may also affect the
distribution of flesh On the carcass
increasing the naturally strong, tough
muscles rather than the less-used ten
der ones. In some birds, notably
chickens, the exercise can be con
trolled. Almost any poultry, however,
a safely be penned for a few days
before killing.
The difference between the flesh of
a plump chicken and of a lean II of
similar kind and age is due principally
to the fat present. The skill of the
fattener, from the consumers stand
point, lies not only in producing the
desirable amount of fat at the least
expense for food and care, but also in
getting the fat well distributed through
the flesh rather than merely in mas
ses within the carcass or under the
skin. Such large masses have little
value for table purposes, and unless
they are carefully saved and used for
cooking they are practically wasted.
When the amount of flesh is increased
by the fat between the fibers the pro-
portion of edible material is increas-
ed and the larger masses of meat
make better portions in serving. The
quality of the flesh is also improved.
Chickens fattened on a mash of
grain and milk acquire a delicate
flavor. Special feeding often imparts
a very desirable flavor. This is found
in the canvasback duck, for example,
which are considered at their best
when they have fed on wild celery.
and chestnuts sometimes are
used to give turkey flesh a special
flavor. Birds intended for table use
should not be allowed to eat onions or
wild garlic habitually, because the
sulphur compounds in these plants
pass over into the flesh, and give it
at taste Objectionable to most per-

PERSHING LOOKS AFTER
WAR RISK INSURANCE

One of the first official acts of
General John J. Pershing upon assum-
ing his new duties as Chief of Staff
of the Army on July /, was the is
suing on that day of an order estab-
fishing contact between the War De-
partment and the Bureau of War Risk
Insurance for the purpose of keeping
former service men informed of their
rights under the War Risk Act and
aiding them in securing these bene-
fits through the cooperation of the
personnel of the Army with the Bu-
reau of War Risk Insurance.
This order, General Order No. 81,
issues the following instructions to
practically the entire army:
Assistance for ex-service men in
their relations with the Bureau of
Wark. Risk Insurance. l. 1t is the
purpose of the War Department, act
ing through it's available personnel,
to assist e~x-service men in every pos
sible way in securing contact with the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance, thus
enabling them without delay to renew
or convert their insurance, to secure
medical or dental treatment, hospi-
talization or vocational training, or to
present their claims for compensation.
2. The obligation is imposed upon
all personnel adjutants throughout
the Army, recruiting officers, and reg
ular officers on duty with the Nation
al Guard and Organized Reserves, to
aid their less fortunate comrades.
Such officers will at once familiarize
themselves with the orders and circu-
lars relating to the War Risk Insur-
ance Bureau, in so far as these in
structions refer to renewal or con-
version of insurance, compensation,
medical Or dental treatment, hospi-
talization and vocational training so
that intelligent assistance and advice
may be afforded ex-service men in re-
gard to their relations with the Blu
reau.
3. The officers mentioned will OBJ
tain without delay direct from the
War Risk Insurance Bureau. a supply
of all blank forms needed by eX-ser-
vice men in their contact with the
Bureau.
A. Upon application from ex-sol-
diers, the officers mentioned in para
graph =, will furnish blank forms,
will assist in the preparation of appli-
cations, will carefully examine all pa
question and will themselves prompt
ly forward the completed applications
or statements to the Bureau of War

CABLE MONEY TRANSFER

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany that arrangements
have been made to resume direct
money transfer service to all points
in Austria. Hungary, Czecho Slovakia,
Jugo Slavia, Roumania and Bulgaria
on July IS. This service will be sup
Elementary to its present direct cable
money transfer service to Great Brit
ain, France and other European coun-
tries. This rearranged service is on
an entirely new basis in that remit
tances for persons in Austria and the
new states formerly comprised in the
Austrian Empire as well as for points
in Roumania and Bulgaria. be made
in United States legal tender, dollars.
In other words 500 cabled to, say
Vienna or Prague, will be paid at des-
tination in United States currency in
stead of an equivalent amount of
kronen as is usually the case in these
countries. 1t is pointed out that since
the payee abroad will receive Ameri-
can funds he will be in a position to
convert them into local currency on
the most advantageous terms since
the banks in those countries will give
a more favorable rate Of exchange
than is available on this side.
In the event OF noN-payme1 at des-
tination the amount to be refunded
to the sender on this side will be the
same as the principal deposited, which
is another advantage in the case of
a deprecated foreign currency which
is %dwindling in value.
The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany beliyeS that the openinr of this
new service should be of considerable
convenience to people desiring 10 send
money cheaply, quickly, safely and
direct to their friends or relatives
abroad.

completion of a 74-foot derrick as
well as building on their acreage, the
southwest quarter of the southwest
quarter of section 1-15-29. They are
now negotiating for a drilling con

stated that it's holders may be as
sured of a good, fair run for their
money, as the first well is to be COM

to allow work to be carried to a depth
of $500 feet, if necessary, to reach
the commercial production. 1t has
been predicted by competent author
tiles, however, that production should
be secured at about 1,5OO feet.
