Time Literary Society held their last literary meeting day „evening • at Currie's school. A splendid program put on by the itient.- bets. 'of the society was enjoyed by all. The main feature was a debate, the subject of which was "Resolved that the world is growing- better," the affirmative wan.. The Triple V Boys from Wingham favoured us'with a number of musical selections. Lunch was served and the members enjoyed a few hours' danc- ing. The society have, held six literary meetings during the winter, all of which were a. success and were well attended. Other interesting features on the program were,. a Mock Wed- ding, a Minstrel Shaw and a short play "Wanted a Wife", Musical num- bers of all kinds were contributed by members of the society, BROILERS FOR MARKET The buyer who can afford luxuries can ,usually afford to be discriminat- ing. Broilers may be considered in the luxury class of food products, when properly prepared for market, When disposing of the surplus cock- erels as broilers it is well to bear this in mind and market the birds in the most attractive way. It pays to please the buyer, and when there is keen competition it becomes tifl more ad- visable. When catering to a select private trade it may speed up sales if the car- cass is completely dressed and put up in an attractive carton. When Sold drawn, the shrinkage will be about 40 per cent. of the Eve weight, and a proportidnate price must be realized to pay for the loss it weight and ex- „tra labour. Those birds should be selected that have 'made good growth; these will be found to be phimp an'd well feathered. The well feathered birds have less pin -feathers and con- sequently dress better. Starve the birds for at least twelve hours, but give plenty of fresh drink- ing water before killing. Kill them by braining- and bleeding; and dry pick. Sometimes to save time the semi - scald may be advisable. In this case bleed and thoroughly immerse the carcass for not more than 30 seconds in water heated to a temperature of not more than 127 degrees F, If is important to keep the water at an ev- en temperature; over -heating will give a skin -Cooked unattractive a'p- pearMice, Cost of production records at the Dominion Experimental Station, liar- rbw, show that it requires, approxi- mately 5, pounds of feed to raise a broiler on range from chick to two- poundweight. The total cost will vary according to the number raised, price of feed, mortality, price of chick, and brooder fuel consumed, It • may be roughly estimated that the feed cost is lightly under half the total cost at present prices and tmcler average coeditions. • Carpet Beetle Time Mid,March is a favourite time for the larvae of carpet beetles to emerge in numbers, although larvae may be found in dwellings at any time of the year. There are two common spec- ies of carpet beetles in Canada—both immigrants •from•the Old World,• • namely, the blade carpet beetle and the buffalo carpet beetle.
