keep it in the kitchen at night. The method I speak of is not always a  
bright and satisfying success, and yet there are so many little articles  
of VERTU about a kitchen, that if you fail on the coop you can generally  
bring away something else. I brought away a nice steel trap one night,  
worth ninety cents.  
But what is the use in my pouring out my whole intellect on this subject?  
I have shown the Western New York Poultry Society that they have taken to  
their bosom a party who is not a spring chicken by any means, but a man  
who knows all about poultry, and is just as high up in the most efficient  
methods of raising it as the president of the institution himself.  
I thank these gentlemen for the honorary membership they have conferred  
upon me, and shall stand at all times ready and willing to testify my  
good feeling and my official zeal by deeds as well as by this hastily  
penned advice and information. Whenever they are ready to go to raising  
poultry, let them call for me any evening after eleven o'clock, and I shall be  
on hand promptly.
