Renovated Butter.

Renovated butter Is now q subject

not bean placed under as rigid rules
as has oleomargarine. The license
mat must be paid by the manufac4ur.
ers OF renovated butter is but $50 per
year, and nothing at all is required OF
the retailers. The factories, however,
are subject to regulations that make
1t impossible for the manufacture of

On Ducks.

From Farmers Review: The idea
that a duckling covered only with
down II allowed to get entirely wet
Is dead duck is prevalent and really
good It is that everyone almost be-
neves this. The down, If it gets en-
tirely wet, is quite a while in drying,
so long that the duck is very apt to
chill; after it is feathered they shed
the water, thus protecting the down.
SO 1t is doubtful IL ever q feathered
DUCKS down gets wet. A down,
clothed duckling might enjoy itself
In water. not cold, OF a warm sunny
day, with only benefit derived from
the exercise, but how many would
watch that they got to swimming wa
ter only in such favorable times?
Ihus 1t is best to not allow ducklings
water In which they can swim: nor
allow them to be out in the rain until
after they are feathered. But don't
forget they must have water in a
deep vessel, deep enough for them to
cover their entire bill above the nos
Urls. II this is neglected the nostriI
openings will get clogged with feed
and dirt and the duck will die. This
is the only way they have of blowing
their nose. Ducks blow their nose
with water and hens battle In dust.
but both require lots Of grit and char
coal. Little chicks and ducks require
their grit to be in the shape of coarse
sand, or at least a large part of it to
De sand. Don't let the downy duck
hngs battle in water or get caught
IN the rain; they won't come in; it
might not hurt them. We have had
some that thrived on it, but it is
risky.-Emma CIearwaters.
