The making of a good Dry Cell Bat- , tery for automobile and gas engine service is one of the most difficult problems to tbe battery manufacturer.

' I You've often wished to know the [trick how that other fellow gets his I chickens into such compact, pretty, j plump shape when yon breed the same Rtrain. feed tbe same grains and go to Ifeocb pains, and yet he outsells you and makes larger gains. Well, here's the tip, sod It's tiptop. Your competitor gets more Vs for his poultry because be presses their carcasses in a V shaped trough. After fasting his fowls one day, that their crops and intestines may be empty to prevent their causing decay, he kills tbem neatly, picks them without tearing the skin, singes tbem over an alcohol flame and then takes tbe clean, warm carcass In bis hands and manipulates the breast meat forward. He presses down the breastbone, ties at bock and presses tbem against folds wings and presses tbam against body. Breast down, the fowl Is now placed in a V shaped trough, with rear of bird pressed tight up - against the back board, and all the carcasses are placed tbe same and tight against each other. After all are neatly arranged a smooth weighted board is placed on the fowls, and they are thus kept until perfectly cool and rigid. If tbe same breed and age this gives all tbe carcasses a uniform, compact, pretty, plump appearance, which certainly is not lost on those who go to market with money to born for tbe best ! The majority of the American people are not looking for seconds. The agitation for pure foods and the exposure of fraud, the enactment of
