PLUcKlNo THE, DUCK.
for the Best Method for
SECURING tho Crop Of
Feathers.

The process of plucking the feathers
from the live duck is described in the
Farmers Sentinel as follows:
In the first place, catch your ducks
and right here you can make mistake.
Don't excite and worry the ducks into
panic, as they get terribly frightened
when cornered, and will rush from side
to side in an effort to get away.
after you decide where you wish to
pick them take some grain and scatter
a little along toward the building, final
ly a little thrown in will get them, a.
they are so greedy that they will rush
in in body, for they are like sheep
where one goes the rest will follow.
Then close the door on what you
think you will have time to pick that
morning. Move around quietly, throw
only a little grain down at a time, and
pick up one while feeding. II you can
have a small lath pen in one corner all
the better. Induce few into 1t at
time by THROWN: III the grain, and you
can then pick up one readily without
hardly disturbing the rest.
"Have a box or stool to sit on. also a
bushel basket to put the feathers In,
with a cloth thrown over the basket
when you come out in the wind. Try
the feathers by pulling out few; II
they come out easily and no blood fol-
lows on the quill, they are ready. You
can also notice when it is time to pluck
them, they often sit around and work
their feathers, and you can see scatter
ing ones on the ground. II not ready.
put the duck out and try another. as
have found that all will not be alike.
Turn the duck on it's back, put its
head under your left arm, holding its
legs in your left hand. Be careful not
to hold them too tight and close to-
gether. Their legs are set quite vide
apart and are easily famed and hurs.
Pick a few feathers out at time with
quick, short jerks. Get most OF the
feathers off the breast and under parts,
leaving the fine down, not disturbing
the back, for the duck will be apt to
sunburn and be long time recovering.
The incest feathers are on the breast.
IT you wish one for dinner, as soon
as killed commence picking it dry, as
the feathers will come out much easier
while warm. Have the tea kettle Oil.
and when you have picked all the feath-
ers and down that will come OIL readily.
scald the rest, and with small, sharp
knife pick and scrape it quite clean.
Dip in hot water, then in cold to plump
IL, and you will have nice looking
duck.
They seem hard to dress If you don't
know how, and you will probably spend
a good deal of time over your first one.
but practice will soon shorten the work.
"Put the feathers into a flour sack,
not too full, and hang them In the wind
Why, the stove to dry out before put

such beautiful white feathers for pill

as close to the place where we got stuck
as possible. We did it, and got good
oil well. After we got the well in the
river bottom we moved up on the hill
side to the spot he had first picked out
and We got a dry hole.
Il knew another fellow who went to
a wild country. When he came to pick
out a site for the first we'll he shut his
eyes, whirled around two or three times
and threw a rock as far as he could.
Where the rock fell was the site of the
we'll. He got oil. There was still an
other fellow who used to tell US to drill
any old place and he sometimes found
oil. But these are merely samples of
experience. Every man to his notion"
Il try" said the promoter, appearing
as digni1ed and wise as an owl, first
to find out the nearest we'll and then
the direction the pool seems to take.
Then take a ruler and measure OF the
line Of the trend and place my derricks
somewhere along that line. But II
were distant say ten miles, from the
nearest production, it would be all a
subject Of guesswork. Especially is that
true Of the Kansas field, where the trends
are contrariwise and sometimes cross
each other. In case of doubt should
let the driller pick the spot and abide the
result. Even the first hole is no indi-
cation of the value Of lease. I have
known at as many as five holes drilled
on lease in this field and every one OF
them dry, when some tenderfoot would
come along and get good oil wells on
that same lease. have in mind the
case of a firm that drilled some holes
around here ~ years ago and reported
that the district was dry, when, within q
stones throw of these dry holes, are
some of the best producing wells in the
district.
Il remember ALSO case at Richburg.
N. Y. The men drilled 10 holes, an I'M
lucky number, and did not get oil. Att
er that came man who got oil in every
one of the Is holes he drilled. If the
original promoters had surveyed the
ground they could not have gone around
the oil-producing territory nearly SO
closely as they did by accident. You
have to take your chances, and that is
what am doing"
1T is easy" said the witch. "All l
have to do is to take out my divining rod
and go out into territory to be developed
and put it on the ground. If there is oil
there the instrument will show it at
once. You cannot fail if you have the
proper kind Of an instrument. The trou-
BILE with these people is that they are
not sufficiently posted in metallurgy to
know that you can discover the presence
of mineral in the ground by the sim
pie device of divining rod! But you
can do it all the same. have located
dozens Of wells IN this district, and
never failed yet. And in other districts
where no wells have been drilled have
located good oil wells which eventually
made money for their owners. With the
rest of the fellows it is guesswork, but
with me it is a 'cinch.'"
And if it is a 'cinch' with you, why
don't you get rich out of it, instead OF
making the other fellows rich?" the
witch was asked. But he looked out
over the tops of the buildings at this
and said he had an engagement with
