Growth Of Young Ducka

Young ducks grow twice as fast as
chicks and it is not unusual for the
ducklings of the large breeds to gain as
much as three quarters of a pound in
one week after they are six weeks old.
We kept an account with a flock of
young Pekin ducks last year and had
them to weigh four and half pounds
when ten weeks old, with several to
bring down the scales at five pounds.
Each young duck consumed two pounds
Of mixed ground grain per week on an
average from date Of Matching until they
were four weeks old, when the weeL,v
allowance Of foo l was three and a half
pounds per ducklinA The cost per
pound OF ducE when ten weeks old was
eight cents. Some of them were sold
when weighing four pounds each, and
the cost was thirty-two cents per duck.
They were fat and in prime order, bring
ing twenty cents per pound or eighty
cents The high prices for young ducks
is only for few weeks in the year, usu-
ally about the 1st of June, but the de-
mand each year for choice young ducks
is increasing and prices will be better.
The ducks mentioned above were fed
and forced for the purpose of expert
ment, in order to determine the relative
cost and ratio Of growth to the age of
ten weeks. = New York Herald.

natf0ns for Lasnbs.

One of the best practical farmers in
central New York, Jonathan Talcott OF
Rome, says that the best ration for
young lambs has not yet been found
out, but one of which lambs are very
fond is composed of equal parts of corn
and oat meal, linseed- meal and wheat
bran. This will probably be considered
by many rich feed; if SO, they can re-
ducc the corn and linseed-mcal, and 90
make less fattening food. He prefers
the corn and oats ground for young
lambs, to whole grain. After they be-
come large, and for grown sheep, whole
grain is preferred for his feeding, As
the sheep grind their grain very effectu-
ally themselves, thus saving the trouble
OF getting it ground.

Shelling Corn.

1t is no small job Smelling 200 or 800
bushels of corn, whatever method is
adopted. Perhaps for economy in labor
and ease The old way of trampling it
out by horses is as good for large lots
as any. The hand shelters require two
men to work them to advantage, one to
turn and another to place the cars. One
hundred bushels day is pretty good
work, and no time must be lost at that
these short days. Still a hand shelter
saves good deal over the slower pro-
cess of Smelling with the naked hand.
In Smelling corn for poultry it is better
to shell and feed one car at a time, Civ
ing the fowls chance to cat more
slowly, but this can be managed by
feeding slowly, even though the corn is
all shelled before the feeding begins

How Plaster Acts on Land.

1t has been satisfactorily ascertained
that on soils destitute of vegetable
matter plaster has but little or no in
fluence unless accompanied by some
kind of decomposable material, so that
its beneficial effects are best secured by
pursuing such a system of cropping as
will accumulate vegetable matter in tn,
soil. Pure plaster is composed of thir-
ty-three per cent. of lime, forty-six per
cent. of sulphuric acid and twenty one
per cent. of water, and is more or less
beneficial to crops as the soil is more or

less deficient in one or more of these
elements. Its influence On plants is
seen most plainly in the large increase
of foliage and stalk as distinguished
from the formation of seed,
and, therefore, its effects are more visi-
bic on the different varieties of clover.
A crop of two tons of clover contains
about twenty-five pounds of sulphate of
lime, whilst crop of twenty five
bushels of wheat, straw and all, con-
tains Blu: seven pounds, and fifty bushels
of corn contain less than one pound.
And while it is universally considered
that plaster, on proper kinds of soil aad
in night condition, is beneficial to all
kinds Of the clover family, yet that it
increases tho yield of wheat, corn, rye,
or oats is not SO generally conceded.
Liebig claimed-and we have great
faith in his opinion-that the chief ben
eft OF plaster to land was that it alb
sorbed Ammonia from the atmosphere
and fixed it in the soil. Others hold
that, besides this quality, it disinte-
CRATES tho compound silicates in the
SOIL setting free the potash and magne-
sia-two essential constituents of plant
growth-and by rendering them solu-
bic and active in the soil, thus furnishes
plants with four of their very essential
constituents, viz: Sulphur, lime, pot
ash and magnesia That there is q
great difference in the quality of plaster
is known to all observant farmers, and
it has been found that the kind
which, in grinding, emits the strong.
'st smell of sulphuric acid has
he best effect on vegetation; and
whilst it cannot be denied that some
plaster, in some seasons at least, has
title or no perceptible effect on vege-
alton, yet, when pure, it is almost as
powerful in its effects as the best of
nanures, and when incorporated with
II strewn over the manure pile at once
tops its strong, pungent smell by
hitting with the ammonia and thus
reserving the strength of the manure.
The great danger, however, to the
armer in purchasing plaster is the
ability of having an impure article i'm
osed upon him, and therefore he can
OF be too particular in satisfying HIM

Advice to Poultry Raisers.

People who keep fowls are advised to
provide them with plenty of lime for
the supply of material for shells of the
eggs. This is indispensable, for the
lime for the shells must come from the
food. Where lime abounds in the soil
this material may be provided in the
gravel which is ground up in the birds
gizzards. But failing this supply,
abundant material should be provided
in the form of bones, either fresh and
finely broken or burned. For some
years past the writer has provided the
fowls with broken fresh bones procured
from the butcher, with some little
trouble in affording this provision. For
a year past the bones have been burned
In the kitchen range and the ashes car
ried out where the hens can get at them.
Every morning large number of the
hens go directly to the heap of ashes
and diligently pick out the fragments of
bone ash, and during the whole day the
heap is visited from time to time by
the hens. No soft eggs are laid, and at
The present time one flock of % hens
yield an average Of 10 eggs daily. OF
course the fowls are we'll fed, but get no
sort of coddling. New York Times
