! FEW POINTERS ON
POULTRY SHIPPING

Possibly it is homewhat, late in the
season for an article Of this kind, but
"tis better late than never" and there
are still a large percentage OF farm
ers in Bottineau County who haven't
shipped their poultry and if these
pointers prove of any value to them
they have served their purpose.
Dressing Instructions
Turkeys should be dry picked,
chickens, ducks and geese should be
scalded. 4 NV.
Chickens. Hang the chicken by the
legs and kill by cutting veins in the
back OF mouth. Pick the legs dry and
lmmerse several times in water almost
boiling. Remove feathers and pin
feathers at once and be careful not to
tea the skin. This should be done
while the body is warm. After picking

an oily appearance and should not be

Turkeys. Dry pick the same as for
poultry. Kill by cutting vein in back
OF mouth and by penetrating rain
over eye.
Cooling and grading. Cool but do
not freeze poultry before packing.
Heads should be wrapped in paper
to keep blood from the mouth from
making poultry smeary.
Thin birds or those with torn skins,
crooked breast bones, broken wings,
etc. are graded No. 2. Over scalded
or pin feathery chickens, ducks and
geese are also graded No. 2.
Packing and shipping. Good strong
barrels or boxes should be used in
packing poultry. Line with paper and
place paper between layers Of poultry.
Tops should Sbe securely fastened.
Burlap is alright for barrels. HOOPS
should be placed over this or wire Sc
curely twisted around.
Your name and address, number

proved highways mean not only good
automobile roads, they mean cheaper
and better food, greater values lii the.
land, better opportunities Tor the
rural population. And they also pay
good dividends In the huge sums col,
lected In license fees for motor W.
hicles, enough In most instances to
pay the cost OF repairs and improve
ments.
The policy Of the government co
operating with the states In the cost
Of road building has been a great In
centive In the construction Of better
highways and there is no doubt that
many thousands of miles Of roads have
been built under this plan, which
otherwise would not have been UNDER
taken. 1t should and doubtless will
be continued, but there should be an
expressed guarantee that roads built
under this cooperative plan are to be
maintained and kept in good repair.
This preeminently is the duty of the

Location, Construction and Malnto.
nance Must Be Taken Into
eoriouo Consideration.

The three principal divisions Of &C.
tual road making are location, con-
struction and maintenance. In plan
ming q road 1t is necessary that we
take into consideration all three Of
these steps, since proper location at
fects the cost of construction and
may materially reduce cost Of main
tenance.
Some of the things to be considered
in locating a road are easy grades,
good drainage, exposure to sunshine,
elimination Of ~culverts and bridges by
avoiding unnecessary creek crossings,
d%irectness and the number Of farms
to be served for a given length of
road. Whenever possible to avoid it,
a good location should not be rejected
merely because a certain roadway has
been in use for some time.

Seems to Be Lots of
Teams and Few Players
in Local Basketball

From the looks of things this city is
going to be over-run this winter by In
dependent basketball teams. So far there
are but five teams in the field, or, at
least, there are five managers who state
that their respective fves are "the stuff.
At present the En- Koes, K. of C.s, All
Indiana. Chamber Of Commerce and Pot-
tawattimis hold the limelight.
There is nothing wrong with having
a number of good teams. but the strange
part of 1t all is that certain players
are listed on all of the teams. 1t seems
as If some sort OF an agreement should
be reached between players and promot
ers so that the net fans could figure II
all out. Basket ball is a strenuous sport
and a man cannot play every night in
the week and give his best. Although
players are sOrely tempted to see how
many games they can play because 1t
means more profit. they will find that
such n procedure loses out for them in
the long run. 1t hurts their own play
ing and detracts from their drawing
power besides.
Some of the stars Of this city who at
present seem to be leading triple and
Quadruple athletic lives should think the
matter over a bit and, at least, come
to the conclusion that playing on two
local teams is enough for any one ath>
lete. Basket BAH is very popular in this
State, but IT can be put in bad as well
as any other line of sport by the attitude
Of the players. Everybody had better
get together on the situation and
straighten things out bit.

the players have the right to challenge

challenge Benjamin is willing TO make
the match for $1,000 a side.
Last week Benjamin asserted that
Hoppe would not appear in the open
ing game Of the worlds tournament un-
less he was drawn by lot for that posi-
ton. He still adhears to his position. y
Although not getting anything higher
than a run Of lbs. Hoppe played re-
markably consistent billiards in his two
blocks against Charles Peterson yester
