Employment for at least an-
other forty people has become
available in Dublin as a result
of the completion of new evis-
ceration facilities at Dublin
Creamery and Poultry Packers
Ltd.
The new facilities are deliv-
ering at the rate of 800 birds
an hour, but when installation
difficulties are ironed out, pro-
duction will increase to 1200
birds an hour, according to
Jack Wells, the plant manager.
Located in the heart of the
prime poultry producing coun-
ties of Perth and Huron, the
new poultry processing facili-
ties provide a year-round mar-
ket for the production (Cares
poultry farms. While turkeys
processed in the new plant
come from areas across this part
of Ontario, almost all the broil-
ers and hens which Dublin
handles, come from district
farms, according to Mr. Wells
From the time the bird ar-
rives at the covered unloading
dock until it reaches the cool-
ing room takes about 10 min-
utes. After Cooling for a little
more than an hour, the care-
fully plucked and cleaned broil-
er, hen or turkey, is ready for
shipment to Toronto, where
final packing takes place.
The finished birds are held
at an even temperature during
the trip and are shipped in
tanks of water with ice.
Every step in the eviscerating
process is under the watchful
eye of government inspectors.
First impression on seeing the al-
most completely automatic op-
eration is of cleanliness as the
trim white -garbed employees
go about their duties.
Birds arrive at the unloading
dock in crates and are removed
and hung on shackles on a slow-
ly moving conveyor. Within
seconds, each has been killed
by an electric sticker and is
carried by the conveyor through
a series of scalding tanks.
Next step is the automatic
pickers, which by means of a
series of ingenious rubber roll-
ers, remove most of the feathers
from the birds. As the birds
leave the pickers they pass by
open gas-fired flames and are
singed.
The first hand operation is
in the pinning process, when
white -clad operators inspect the
birds and pull out pin feathers
that have resisted the automa-
tic pickers.
The conveyor carries the
birds into the evisceration line
where they are opened, cropped,
cleaned out and the giblets re-
moved.
A vacuum machine applied to
each bird ensures everything
has been removed and thor-
oughly cleans the interior.
Hand washing is next, followed
by a series of automatic wash-
es.
All this has taken about 10
minutes, and the bird is now
ready for the cooling line.

WQG0 PLANTS LIKE FAL SEEDING

from seed if sown in the.
according to Dr. , W. H. Cram,
of the Canada Department of
Agriculture. He repet'.ted on
tests with 25 species at the
Forest Nursery Station at In-
dian Head, Sask.
Three fall treatments were
tried in 1959 and five treat-
ments in the spring of 1960,
both seasons being moist and
favorable.
Fall .sowing of clean, non-
stratified seed was best for spe-
cies of Rosa, Syringa, Elaeagnus,
Sambucus, Lonicera and Malus.
After 30 to 60 days of stratifica-
f ioi , fall sawing .of see(l wee
best for species. of Sorbus, P.run-
us and .Aesculus, as wall as for
the whole :berries of Louicera.
Spring --sowing of..nonstrath.
fied seed was best for Prinsepia,
and after 90 days of stratifica-
tion, for Shepherdia and Hip-
pophae.
None of the eight treatments
promoted satisfactory germina-
tion
erminetion within one year for seed of
Viburnum, Crataegus or Coton-
easter species. Spring sowing
after 180 days of stratification
Was the best for Juniper seed;
it germinated the year after
sowing.
