Vertigo in Geese.

The most frequent difficulty with
ducks and geese is that of vertigo.
They drop down on their feet or fall
over to one side suddenly, at times as
rapidly recovering or dying immedi-
ately. This happens only when ducks
or geese are fed on too much grain.
The best system to adopt in summer
is to put them in a field where short
grass is abundant, or even young
weeds, and let thew get the food for
themselves. They require but very
little food in summer, as they are
then well over the laying period, be-
coming non-prodncers. If this fact is
kept in view-'hat of the non-produ.
ders requiring hut little food during
warm weather-there would be a saw
ing in expenses as well as fewer losses
from disease, but it is difficult to con-
vince those having good breeds that

Misunderstanding too much. - st.

effects most seriously the tobacco
producer. If acreage is large and

over production as the cause Of low

the demand is heavy, then these
