The lads already smelt an agreeable odour arising from the cabin forward, where the boy had been for some time busily engaged, and soon the whole party were seated on the lockers in the cabin devouring fried fish. "Master Chambers," Geoffrey said, "we have got two boiled pullets in our basket. Had we not better have them for dinner?
"Jim," she said to the waiter who set the breakfast on the table, "tell cook to keep some of the perch and pullets dressed to put over the fire the moment she hears the judge's bell ring, so that his breakfast may be ready for him when he comes down." "Very well, miss," answered Jim, who immediately left the room to give the order; but soon returned to attend upon the table.
As they begin to show signs of maturity they should be gotten into permanent quarters. If allowed to begin laying while roosting in coops or in trees they will be liable to quit when changed to new quarters. If possible the coops should be gradually moved toward the hen-house and the pullets gotten into quarters without excitement or confinement.
“What shall I do?” asked Solomon Owl. “Insects are scarce at this season of the year. Of course, there are frogs—but I don’t seem to care for them. And there are fish—but they’re not easy to get, for they don’t come out of the water and sit on the bank, as the frogs do.” “How about pullets?” Aunt Polly inquired. At that Solomon Owl let out a long row of hoots, because he was pleased.
The earlier stage was that of our ancestors, who had but two places for keeping poultry: one the court yard of the steading in which chickens were fed and their profit derived from eggs and pullets, the other above ground, for their pigeons were kept in the dormers or on the roof of the farm house.
With pencil and paper he could easily figure profits in the business. If this dreamer would attempt to keep cows for the production of casein and throw away his butter fat, we would have an analogous case to the broiler raiser who does not keep his pullets for egg production.
It was a terrible ordeal, and they had moreover made such a fire in the stove, that the room seemed quite red hot. "It is dreadfully hot here!" observed the first brother. "Yes," replied the princess, "my father is going to roast young pullets to-day." "Baa!" there he stood like a baa-lamb.
I holds open the paper wrappings while he inspects the cacklers. And, believe me, they was the fanciest poultry specimens I'd ever seen! Honest, they looked like they'd been got up for the pullets' annual costume ball. "And Mr. Nash," I goes on, "said Mr. Skellings was to bring 'em in this way."
For notwithstanding all the necessities and sicknesse that happened vnto me, I would not suffer so much as one chicken to be killed: by which meanes in a short time I had gathered together aboue an hundred pullets.
"Fox, you have deceived so many tender pullets, that I don't like to trust you with this one, for fear of your making her too precocious." "I did not think of that, but you are right." Adelaide became the wonder of Bologna.
