Feed Ducks on Buttermilk.

Poultry shippers and packers are
greatly interested in an experiment
being carried on by A. r. L'oomis at
Fort Dodge IN the feeding of domestic
ducks and geese. Mr.. Loomis, who
is one of the largest packers and
shippers in the west, has 500 fowls
in an enclosure adjoining big
creamery plant at Fort Dodge and is
fattening them on buttermilk diet.
1t is reported that the birds are taking
on a firm but tender flesh at a very
rapid rate and what is more, the meat
is white and bids fair to be as white
as the breast meat on chicken. Mr..
Loomis expects to conclude the feeding
with the first freezing weather. when
he will kill and dress the birds and
forward them to market, where he ex.
poets the white meat to bring top
price.

Flowing With a Traction Engine.

Last week one of the 22-horse power
gasoline traction engines made by the
Hart-Parr 90. of this city, was
hooked to four disc plows and the
whole outfit run over to the Danforth
farm. west or town. where it was sent
to do a stunt in blowing. The plows
each carried three discs and on every
round cut a.furrow measuring mine
feet in width. The blowing was ex-
perimental work and was done for
the purpose of instructing statesmen
of the company how TO hitch up the
outfit quickly and so as to obtain the
best results. The work was carried
ON through a period of nearly three
days and proved highly satisfactory to
the men having it in charge as well
as the spectators who were out in
force. The engine did the work
assigned 1t with surprising ease,
pulling the twelve plows through
the soil without the least difficulty.

when his oldest son Oscar, aged IS

cidental discharge of a shotgun. The
charge entered his neck. came out
through his head and passed through
the wall of the house. Mrs. Otterson
was at Saude and Mr.. Otteson was
absent from home. The report is that
Oscar climbed up ON a chair and got
