T AIS f AN ROMalt LESSON 6—REAR! NG THE REWARD, FOR N. COLONY ORICliEN 1±0 u SES 1N A. BACK. YARD. The profit from dressed poultry is decided largely by the manner in which it is prepared. Provision dealers are anxi- ous to secure the most attractive look- ing poultry. Dry -picked ehiekens sell better on the market. The picking cam be easily done before: the bleeding stops. And after the chicken is thoroughly cooled it may be packed in ice. To make the body loot: plump, plunge it into nearly boiling water 10 seconds, then in ice water 10 minutes, and then pack in ice. Don't try to sell stale or dirty eggs. Let your customers know that you sell none but fresh egs, and they will al- ways prefer your eggs and may pay a slightly higher price for them. Clickers to be kiled should have no food for from 12 to 24 hours and no wa- ter for eight hours before killing. This is about the best way to kill a chicken: Hang by the feet, with wings fastened, insert a sharp knife in the mouth and cut the vein at the back of the throat; then run the point of the knife through the roof of the mouth to- ward the brain. Instant paralysis and loosening of the feathers follows. Of course the main idea of this --thick- en business is the eggs and meat you will have for your table or to sell. 1f you figure on selling chickens, try to get them ready for the market early in the summer When the price is high. During the summer it may be that you are not attracted by the prevailing prices for offs and that you will want to save some for winter, a time when pric- es are highest. About the best may of "putting down" eggs is the water -glass method. Buy a good quality of the liquid water - glass or sodium silicate, costing some- thing like 50 cents a gallon, and to one quart add 10 gxlarts of boiled water, which • has eltbsequently cooled, and place it in an earthen jar. Into this no - Mien place the eggs as fast as they are gathered until they are within an inch or two of the surface of the liquid•. The jar should he in a cool, dark pee' and should be kept covered. i ggs pack- ed in this solution in summer will keep perfectly until midwinter, provided they are in good condition when put 5e.

Extraordinary Experience of Son of Ingersoll Blacksmith. Ingersoll despatch: While playing with some companions at the edge of Partlo's Pond, little Bay Jackson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Emerson Jackson, aged 6 years, fell into the mill race, and but for the prompt action of John Devlin, ire probably would have drowned, This mill rare flows under a double house, and the lad was quickly carried by the current out of view. Mr. Devlin rushed from his blacksmith shop into the cellar of the house and pulled up some timbers which forts a covering for the race, suc- ceeding in pulling out the child, who ap- parently was none the worse for his ex- perience.
