duct unbecoming an officer and a gen.

So far as his actions in Chicago and
On the Pacific Slope are concerned, Lieut.
Col. Tucker seems 10 have done nothing
which would warrant the exercise Of de
partmental discipline Whatever atten-
iions he may have paid in this country

anything more than a friendly interest in

Mrs. Tucker, wife Of the paymaster, who
inspired the investigation, employed pri-
vate detectives TO ascertain the truth re-
garding her husbands alleged detection,
but they were unable to obtain any in
formation of an accurate character which
could be used in legal proceedings against
Lieut.. Col. Tucker
Mai. West still Busy.
The departments investigation. how

duct of Lieut. Col. Tucker az Manila has

amined Lieut. Col Tucker in Chicago and
made inquiries among persons in that

West. Lieut.. Col. Tucker denied most
cnphatically that he had acted improp-
orly. insisting that he had done nothing
to be ashamed of, and that there was no
reason for departmental interference in
what after all was "a family affair.
This is not the view of Mrs. John A.
Logan and Mrs Tucker who insist that
the investigation shall 90 on 10 the bitter

missal is invariably the sentence imposed
by a court in case the former charge

standard of perfection which it is i'm
possible to attain, these new breeds are
usually valuable additions to the poul-
try world. The latest claimants for
popular favor are the Light Plymouth
Rocks. These birds are genuine Plym-
outh Rocks, with the shape and char
acteristies of that valuable breed, but
with the coloring of the Light Brah-
ma. Naturally the blood of the latter
has been used in producing this vari-
ETY., which is good thing, for of the
many varieties of fowls now extant
there is none which when properly
treated viii give better returns than
the Light Brahma. Indeed, the only
objection to the Light Brahma is that
it is handicapped by feathers on the
shanks. These of course do not APP

An ECO Food Formula.

The following formula is one that is
highly recommended as an egg food OIL
condition powder: Ground mustard
seed, five ounces; fine eornmeal, five
ounces; ground fenugreek, four ounces;
sulphate of sodium, an ounce; red pep
per, half an ounce; ginger, half an
ounce; fine ground bone, half an ounce;
common salt. half an ounce; iron car
Donate, half an ounce; black antimony,
half an ounce. All of the above should
be reduced TO fine powder and thor
oughly mixed. The dose is one table
spoonful to each quart of mash food
and should be given three times. a
week.

MUsCovY DUCKS.
Their Strong and Weak Points as Com
pared With the White Pekins.


Muscovy ducks are very different
from the Pekins and have not proved
as satisfactory for market purposes,
one reason being that there is a very
considerable difference in size be-
tween the males and females, which is
disadvantage from market stand
point where uniformity in size is one
of the requirements. Again, it takes
longer to hatch Muscovy ducks than
it does Pekins. They are not as CON
yeniently handled in large focks, are
disposed to fly and prefer to roost in
the trees rather than be confined. They
are not as heavy layers as the Pekins,
but are remarkably hardy, and their
eggs hatch particularly well, although
for some reason it is more difficult to
get good hatch by artificial means
than with the Pekin duck eggs. The
meat of the Muscovy is exceptionally
fine havored, and for the size of the
duck there is greater amount Of edi-
bic flesh than on almost any other va
riety.
