Show METHOD OF KILLING FOWLS Neat and Proper Way Is to Clip Head Off of Bird and Place It In Box to Bleed Freely. The following method of killing fowls is a neat and proper one: Set a square post about two feet in the ground and about two and one-half or three feet (or as desired) above ground, writes J, E. Raiser in the Slaughtering Block. Farm and Fireside. After clipping the fowl's head off (for this I prefer a corn-cutter or knife to a hatchet or ax), place the fowl in the box, where It will bleed freely. This method, to my notion, is more humane than to have them flopping about on the ground. |
