SOMETHING ABOUT DUCKS.

DIR. Woods Tells How He Feeds and
Cares For His Pekins.
To get good results from ducks l be-
lieve in a dry, well lighted and easily
aired house, yards with shallow water
at the lower end and gate to shut the
birds out of the water until they have
finished laying. The house should be
cleaned often and well bedded with
clean straw. 1t will not be possible to
keep it absolutely clean, but the clean
er and drier the house the better for
the ducks. Dirty, damp floors mean
cold feet, and ducks wit& cold feet do
not do well.
For best results in fertility OF eggs
think that the breeders should have ac-
cess to wasar for bathing and exercise
once a day. In handling the ducks or
caring for them the attendant si1uuid

birds to his vote. They ike to be talk
ed to and seem to understand all that is
necessary of what is said to them. The

his duck pens will not get good returns.
am feeding twice day with good re-
suits in eggs and fertility, considering
the season and the age of the birds.
Mash feed is given exclusively. Grit
and shell are supplied in boxes in the
duckhouse. The chicken size grit is
used in preference to larger grit. The
grain for the mash is all mixed dry in
the following proportions: Bran, 200
pounds; cornmeal, 100 pounds; ground
oats, 100 pounds; low grade flour, rs
pounds; beef scrap, 70 pounds. With
every five pals of this mixture are
used two pals of dry cut clover loosely
packed in pail. The clover is scalded
before mixing with the grain, and
grain and clover are mixed with the
warm tea from the scalded clover. The
mash is fed when cool. Clover is the
only green food fed at present, because
no other green stuff is available. Later
/ expect to try corn fodder. -Four or
five ducks are allowed for each drake

here given is giving good results. The

FOR one thing. the greater part of the
exterior wall spaces are all in warm
white. Color is employed only at struc-
tural points in the architecture. as
about entrances. Furthermore. no
primitive color Is brought into direct
contrast with other primitive colors: a
mass of ivory white always intervenes.
This gives great brilliancy and pre-
vents chromatic dlscords. The quality
of white used on the buildings varies
from a warm creamy white near the
bridge to a cool ivory tone at the Elec-
trio Tower
AS an essential means of promoting
harmony green, In at least few notes,
is employed in the adornment of every
building of the Exposition The beauti-
full translucent green of Niagara has
been fifty chosen as the dominant color
of the whole scheme. Appearing in its
fuliness in the recesses of the Electric
Tower and in the restaurant group be-
hind. it is everywhere repeated. Not a
building but bears its echo mark of Nj
agara green.
The color schemes of few of the
buildings may be noted:
Horticulture-Orange with details in
brilliant blue. green. rose and yellow.
Governmental-Yello with details
In primitive colors.
Music Hall-Red.
Machinery-Greenish gray.
Restaurant Group-Iyory. accented
with green and gold.
Electric Tower-Ivory. yellow. gold
and green.
The roofs of the Exposition are for
the most part covered with red tiles.
though prominent towers and pinnacles
will be in many cases decorated with
green or blue green or with gold
All the buildings will have a play of
colors about their entrances. balconies,
pinnacles and towers. My idea is to
have the sharpest and freshest green
known carried throughout the entire
scheme. and that will be nv reference
to power. Green is one of the more re-
cent and refined colors II has not long
been used in art Pick up any picture
painted long ago. and you will look in
vain for a suggestion of green in it.
The grass will be represented as brown
They said 1t was impossible to secure
the grass green effect. but it Is done
nowadays.
The color scheme has for the most
part been worked out at my studio In
New York The first step was TO get
from tho architects small sketches of
all the buildings Models were made
from these on scale of one sixteenth
inch TO the foot which when properly
grouped on n platform 10 by 1G feet rep
resented the entire Exposition In minia-
ture. Each model was colored in ac-
cordance with the general scheme, and
It's relationship to surrounding build
ings carefully studied. Many of them
had to be painted several times before
suitable results were secured.

drawings of the individual buildings
were made, and the decorations accu-
rately worked out to the last detail I'M
til they were in readiness to be placed
in the HANDS of the intelligent painter
decorator.
When the time arrived to begin |
painting, it was found that the build
ings in the middle of the grounds were
the only ones on which work could be |
done, and then the value of my model |
was demonstrated. Mr.. Washburne |

was enabled to readily translate from
the model to the buildings without dam
ger of breaking the harmony of the
scheme.
The colorlng Of exposition buildings
has been undertaken a number of
times, but in most cases has been
abandoned before taking real shape.
White has been most popular. though
it is severe on the eyesight. After the
numerous failures 1t required consider
able courage on the part of the Pan
American Exposition builders to take
up the color scheme. Having started
out, however, they are determined not
to turn back. If the color scheme
proves successful, as have every rea-
son to believe it will, 1t will be a novel;
ty and mark a new era of improvement
in the treatment of architecture. The
ACCESSIBILITY Of applying color to large
buildings has always been questioned.
The matter needs a great deal of care
and thought All coloring is the subject
of more or less criticism of an unfavor-
able character. We will do remarka-
bly, well if we escape it at this Expo
sition.
However. we have put our hands to
the pillow, as it were, and we must not
look behind The time for the work is
limited, and all must be done during
the most unfavorable period of the
year We must employ large force,
bring all our ingenuity into action and
push forward. After the painters have
done their work | shall go carefully
over it. and skilled artists will supply
tone if necessary. This will be equiva-
lent to the vanishing day" of the
artist Then the result of our efforts to
produce harmonious and pleasing
color scheme will go before the public,
and it is to be hoped that our critics
will bear in mind the novelty of the
undertaking and all the adverse cir
cumstances under which we have la

Children

Have "eyes bigger than their stomachs,"
according to an old saying. They over
eat themselves, and are tempted by all
sorts of injurious and indigestible edi-
bles. As a consequence the foundation
of serious stomach trouble is often laid
in childhood.
For children with uweakn digestion or
whose stomachs are diseased, Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery may
be confidently recommended. 1t cures
diseases of the stomach and other organs
of digestion and nutrition, so that the
nourishment contained in food is per-
fectly assifnilated and the puny child is
built up by food into a condition of
robust health.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
contains neither alcohol nor narcotics.
Accept no substitute for Golden Med
ical Discovery" There is nothing vjust
as good " for diseases of the stomach and
other organs of digestion and nutrition.
Mrs. Ella Gardner, of Waterview, Middiesex
Co., Va, writes: rMy little daughter is enjoying
who could cure my child, Whenever she feels
badly give her DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery and she is soon all right. She took
twelve bottles of the Golden Medical Discov-
of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and she is well.
We thank God for your medicine"

woman, gentle or simple, each visitor
should gain and should be conscious of
gaining an enlarged appreciation, sub
jectiyely of himself as living and
sentient being and effectively of the
world as his sphere of living and know
ing, realm fuller of sweetness and
light. His respirations should be quick

To this end the Exposition speaks to
it's visitors with three voices through
its architecture, its exhibits, it's amuse-
ments. The Pan-American Exposition
will address it's expected throngs IN
all these voices
In its architecture must be included
the whole external equipment = it's
buildings in their artistic and symmet-
rical arrangement and grouping, the
beauty of their style, the exuberance of
their decorations, breathing afresh the
genius of the Spaniard and the Moor in
graceful forms and gorgeous colorings;
the landscape effects, blending the har-
monies of forest and lake, of fountain
and tower, of cascade and castle and
eliminating spire-of all that is lovely
in nature with all that is refined and
ennobling in art. Here as at Chicago
the architect holds high carnival If at
the Columbian exposition we found the
chaste purity of the lily in presenta
ton ''unequaled since the days of Phid-
las and Praxiteles," the fairies who
join hands in the Pan-American clothe
themselves with the chaste hues of
Titan and of Murillo, unequaled since
the days of Venice and of the Alham-
bra. Another dream of beauty will
hang in the eastern sky. paralleling the
visions Of delight that linger on the
western horizon.

THE BEAUTIFUL ORIENT.
1t Is One of the SIidway's Interesting
Attractions.

1t Is One of the Midwny's Interesting
Attractions.
Nearly 100000 will be required to
construct and equip the wonderful
Midway at the Pan-American EXPOSE
ton. The greatest care has been taken
to prevent any approach toward the
fake" show, and the visitor may rest
assured that he win not be submitted
to fraud or extortion so long as he re-
mains upon the Exposition grounds. It
is difficult to single out any attraction
in this section as more prominent or
worthy than another, for all have their
special merit and novelty.
The Beautiful Orient will represent
life as it existed in the East before
the advent of the modern tourist.
CASTOR Akoun, director of this conces-
sion, is arranging to have native repre-
sentative characters to convey proper
impressions of oriental customs and
manners of living. He will have plenty
of room in which to display the differ
ent salient features that would appeal
in the strongest terms to people ac-
customed to our western civilization.
A holy Mecca will be the meeting place
of tired and worn pilgrims who will
constantly arrive, make their offer
ings in the various mosques or reli-
gious temples and dispense. Eight
streets will diverge from this objective
point, each representing distinctive
local section of the orient. A street
in Constantinople will be thoroughly
Turkish, even to the vagabond dogs.
Morocco will be represented by a
street which will illustrate the life and
habits of the Moors. Algerian life will
receive attention. and street will be
borrowed from Algiers for the pur-
pose. Typical illustrations in like
manner will be taken from Egypt,
Tunis. Persia. Tripoli and Turkey in
Asia. While looking through these
sections visitors could easily imagine
themselves In the midst of the ancient
city the counterpart of which they are
visiting.
A Bedouin Arab encampment will
lend variety. and Sahara Desert no
MAIDS will live in their interesting char
acteristic way. Natives from all coun-
tries will live on the grounds with their
camels and different domestic oriental
animals. cabins. tents and huts. Res
taurants. tea houses, shops and fruit
stands for the sale CT oriental goods OF
great variety will be provided. The
Beautiful Orient is under the same
management as the Streets of Cairo.

Fair, though it will be three times as
