How many women there are Of whom
these words are true: "They feel Ian.
guild and tired, hardly able to bear their
weight on their feet, the bloom all gone
from their cheeks, irritable and cross
without meaning to be, nerves all upset,
worried with the children, fretted over
little things, burden to themselves,

Massachusetts who is mentioned in the
Philadelphia Record as having Emade q
clear profit of $500 IN one year from
S5 ducks on one acre Of land. He
uses large trough which flows =
constant stream Of water, which is
used as bath tub by the ducklings.
He claims to have gotten lao eggs
from each duck from which were
hatched 5000 ducklings, winch we're
raised to the age of eight TO ten
weeks old and sold In the Boston
market at so cents down to 1S cents
per pound, the average price being
% cents. They weighed from to 8
pounda each by which it may bo seen
a large profit may be realized. He
raises the Perkin duck.
