Lt Y last week for Saven,Persous, his pro- posed home, and Mrs. Eckmier is visit- ing her sister aud other friends at Listowel before going to the West, Women's Institute, Brussels At the regular meeting of Brussels Women's Institute, which was held Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs. D. B. Moore, William street, there was a large and interested attendance. A fine practical report, which speaks for itself, was read by Mrs. John Robb, of Morris, and pleased the members so well she was asked to hand it to Tars POST for publication, which she kindly did. Here it is :— It affords me a great deal of pleasure to read to you a report of what Mrs. Walker and I heard and saw in Wal- ton while attending a meeting of the Walton Branch of Women's Institute on Feb. 10th. The meeting was held in the Workman's Hall and was pre- sided over by their energetic Pr es i- detG, Mrs. Alex. Gardiner. Weex- e tad to see Mies Yates, ofGuelph, a practical demonstration on "Killing,, plucking, trussing and carv- ing a fowl" but upon arriving we learned that bliss Yates was unable to be present and while we regretted very much her absence, Miss Ellis, who was sent from Guelph to take her work, proved a worthy substitute. KILLING.—In killing a fowl bind its legs and haug it up, head downward. Place arm firmly round win gs attd bleed by making an incision in the mouth. Allow a few seconds for bird to bleed then take knife again and crake an incision at the base of the biaiti. This paralyses bird aud the plucking is then the matter of a couple of minutes as the feathers just roll off the bird and bliss Ellie believes that this system of killing fowl is al- most painless. She also recommended breaking.the neck of towl as this severs the spiral cord. In preparing fowl for market use crate fattened birds and in pluck- ing leave a few feathers round neck and on tip of wings, Always leave the head on the bird as the head is the first member of fowl to show disease. If the heads are removed a buyer is • l apt to think the fowl may y have had r and itwas removed to- atlue disease @ conceal this fact,. Ditteeneo THE Nowt,—First remove sinews in legs by inakiug an incision below the .tock and inserting the trussing needle giving a couple of ten:eetben a firm pull and you remove thet sil ew. Then'remove legs below . heels so that in cooking the flesh will not shrivel here and allow the drtitn sticks to protiudo which gives the. _:fowi an unsightly appearance. 2nd—In removing head and neck cut a flap of skin au inch wide and 2 fnclhee long free from neck and then remove neck at junction of shoulders taking cate to leavo a Hap of skin on W. H. 4BRR, R, Proprietor under side of neck also, Thon rsniovw crop and windpipe. 13e sure your. bird leas been hated 24 hours au ehwt crap le clouts, 'Theo placo tivo flu• gars down opening aud wOi•k ;fends 1111 you ft'ee the lungs from toe back« hs sir DS bons, You will see why t z 1 u When you draw the iutestiues truth the Yowl as by so doing you can straw all iutestiues out in. one piece, Theu tu),•ti bird round and cut an incision between tail aud vent, then cut vent out. Now free the fat at the upeniug thea grasp gizzard and if lungs have beenwill properlyemuseels loosawayened thein iutestiues h oue piece. if you send birds to mar- ket dressed send gizzard, heart and liver, iu removing liver be, careful not tet bleak gall -bag. Scald feet, re- move skin and use Gunn for stock. Now singe your bud using methy- lated alcohol as burutng paper is apt to darken skin of fowl and give a siuged taete. 'It7SSING.—Ren1Ove tips of wings, the thin flap of skin down wings should also be removed. Now bring legs of bird duwn over head to give bird a plum appearance. Thread trussing nesule wino steong cord aud put needle over thigh buoe aud bring it out cm other side and tie ; put the: back flap or skin you left at neck down aud pull trout flap over it ; twist wing'°' into a curved appearaltce. Now pawn needle through Lip of wiug over fiap.of ski .their through other wing tip. draw tightly together aud tie. There are two holes to batik just about the ruot of leg, cow pass your trussing needle right through these holes aud over the breast bone, over tile legs of fowl at hoek and tie legs firm- ly. Your fowl now looks plump and iu carving will not bouuce around on the platter as an uutrussed fowl will do. UARvxii . -Put fork tliiongh breast and hold bird firm, remove wings lirst. severing . at joint. Remove legs and divide aer•oss-miudle joint, then breast Must be taken right off. The back suuuld never be given Lo a guest. la should be reserved for younger mem- bers of the family.

' She is well fitted 1 am sure for many pusi- -• tions still she prefers the healthful, indepeudeut, named life which she will enjoy on her poultry ranch.
