GRAPHIC REPRESENTATION OF FOUR TYPICAL SHIPMENTS. 



Table 1 shows that there is a decided variation in the different 

 factors which influence the keeping of dressed poultry during trans- 

 portation, even when proper methods of commercial procedures are 

 followed. It will be observed that the amount of change occurring 

 during the haul varies, and that, generally speaking, the higher the 

 temperature of the carrier the greater the decomposition. To convey 

 clearly the effect of differences in temperature during the haul and 

 while on the market, four typical shipments, taken from Table 1, are 

 shown graphically in figure 1. The rectangular bars indicate the 

 relative deterioration, the solid bars standing for comparatively high- 

 temperature shipments and the frame bars for comparatively low- 

 temperature shipments. The lines on the chart are the temperature
