There are more ducks In China

China, literally. Is white with these
birds. and day and night the country

Children herd ducks on every road,
on every pond, on every farm, on

no back yard without its duck house.
There Is no boat, little or big, with
out its duck quarters.
Even In the cities OF China ducks
abound. They dodge between the
coolies legs. They fit sauawking out
OF the way OF the horses. Their In.
dlgnant quack will not unseldom
drown the roar OF urban commerce.
All over the land there are great
duck Matching establishments. many
OF them OF capacity huge enough
TO produce $4,000 young ducks every
