All poultry should be ‘‘plumped” after picking, by dipping for about two seconds in boiling hot water, then thrown into cold water and left for ten or twelve minutes. Very fat and handsome chickens and turkeys generally sell a little higher when dry picked, and from ‘far distant points they carry better. Poultry looks much leaner when dry picked than when scalded and *‘plumped;” therefore only very fat stock should be dry picked. Ducks and geese are preferred scalded.
