Quacks without first getting "napper"

Ducks are so nervous that even a

such an electric shock as to stampede
them out of weeks growth. They
drop eggs anywhere, and, though they
cackle not their midnight quack is

their plaster droppings, If not remov-

AS they roost OH the floor, they must

a pond is not essential, much water is
necessary to liquiGate their bills. But,
though watered stock, they pay well If

II one survives his first experience, and,
as the high price duck market is short
and a duckling Is only bon ton at a
certain point in growth and then
goes back, time and the green duck
must be taken by the forelock to catch

Ducks use scoop shovels at repasts,
their fappers being accessory to the act,
anu their digestive tracts are so arrang-
ed that there is no stop at way stations,
and, being great drinkers at meals, con-
trary to the teaching Of human quacks,

"Most Sane Solution"

Editor of the Banner:-The above
heading to a short article appears In
the Manchester Journal OF April 7th
credited to the Montpelier Evening
Argus and readers will naturally sup
pose voices the sentiments of the
Journal.
Where ignorance is bliss It's folly
to be wise," so it is allowable in this
case as | judge both editors of the
papers referred to were infants In
politics at the time C. W. Clement
ran for governor of Vermont. At that
time e. Hall, your townsman, mana
ger for Mr.. Clement, had published
in the Banner, by request, a state
ment of the total expense of the cam
paign on the part of Mr. Clement. At
the time we expected like state
ment from Mr.. Proctor's manager,
but II one was published IL never
came to my notice.
II | recall correctly the bill was
over nineteen thousand dollars, the
exact amount Mr. Hall could give the
Banner | have no doubt. The writer
of the article in question seems to
think It commendable that DR.. Mead
refuses Mr. Hapgood's request until
such matter is made compulsory by
legislative action. Would you or
expect one to render a strictly hon
est account of itemized expenses
who refuses by courteous request?
DR. Mead would have added strength
to his candidacy by replying as
promptly to Mr.. Hapgood's request
as did Mr. Fleetwood.
We do not have laws to control

act laws to compel many Of our, cit
liens to play fair" / have heard 1t
expressed that in all probability DR.

and dollars Well, what of It? Is
there any significance in connection

REGARDING THE CENSUS

The census begins April Is and
must be completed in thirty days.
The enumerators will wear badge
inscribed United States Census,
1910"
The law requires every adult per
son to furnish the prescribed norma
ton, but also provides that it shall
be treated confidentially so that no
injury can come to any person from
answering the questions.
The Census Bureau, prior to April
Is, will distribute to every farm own
er and tenant in this state blank
or schedule containing the census
questions relative to farm operations
and equipment. This should be filed
up, If possible not later than the
morning of April IS, but If any one
has been unable to fill it up by that
time, he should do it as soon after
wards as he can.
People who do not speak English
or who do not understand the sched-
ule completely should get help from
others, If possible, in filling 1t up.
The president has issued a pro-
elimination calling on all citizens to
cooperate with the census and assur-
ing them that it has nothing to do
with taxation. army or jury service,
compulsory school attendance, regu-
lation on immigration, or enforce
ment of any law, and that no one can
be injured by answering the inquir-
les,
1t is of the utmost Importance that
the farm census of this state be COM
plete and correct.
Therefore every farm owner and
tenant should promptly, fully and ac-
curately fill up The Advance Farm
Schedule" and carefully preserve II
for the enumerator when he calls.

Good RatiOns
For the Cows

According TO an authority on feed
ing, buying grain for cows is a mat
ter that takes considerable nerve at
the present price on the market. Ii Is
a question, too, that takes lot Of
thought and study. Many farmers are
asking their neighbors what they feed
and how much. Many are putting
more thought and study into just such
questions as feed and feeding, where
as twenty years ago almost any way
and any kind of feed would do.
The great question of today with
the dairyman is what to feed and how
much. 1t is n question that needs the
closest attention. But how shall the
man care for his cows under the farm
conditions and conyeniences that are
at the command Of the ordinary farm
err? When the COW is on full feed Of
grass little thought need be taken Of
her, but this Is comparatively a small
part of the year, and, in fact, some
practice feeding something the entire
year
small amount of grain fed even
on the flush of feed will repay the
owner In fact, some farmers prac-
tice feeding ensilage also when on
grass. When 1t comes little later
in the season the weather gets hot and
the flies are troublesome. 1t is abso
lutely necessary to feed something in
connection with pasturage to main
tain anything like full flow Of milk.
The ration for a COW should be gov
erned. of course, according to the abil
fly Of the COW to asslmilate her food
and convert It into milk 1t is impos-
sible to lay down any rules to go by,
but feed the cows all they will take
and make proper use Of Some con
tend that eight pounds OF grain per
day is enough for an average COW, but
1t is not good rational way to feed
n COW Is to commence when she
freshens with FIVE or six pounds a
day, begin to increase the feed and
gradually do so as long as you can in
crease the flow Of milk and are sure
that she is properly dgesting her
food.
1t always pays to feed the COW all
that she can convert into milk with
out waste, provided one has grain
ration that balances up on ratio OF
! to 5.5 or thereabouts. Take farm
grown grains and buy enough wheat
bran, oilmeal, cottonseed meal OF
some of the protein feeds TO balance
up the ration. What Is a balanced IA
tion? 1t is the proper amount Of feed

to sustain the animal for twenty-four
hours and furnish the nutrients for
her to do her work on. But the aver
age farmer is not going TO weigh each
cows milk each day and then weigh
each cows ration and make them ex.
actly correspond. II makes some diff
ference as TO the individual animals

much protein, ton for ton, as cat

The silage aids In the digestion Of
everything the COW eats. Ensilage and
grain should be fed the first thing IN
the morning; then the milking and sep.
arating should be done. then az noon
feed ten TO fifteen pounds OF clover
and alfalfa hay. The same method is
followed In the evening with ensilagc
and grain. The ration for strictly
fresh cows should be one and one half
pounds OF ollmeal. one and one-half
pounds OF cottonseed meal, three
pounds OF cornmeal aud four pounds
OF first quality bran.
