very profitable and most pleas

is very interesting, and the in

they can certainly convert into
such profit with pigeons where

they should have scalded oats mixed

VIII you please write me how to
start off little Indian Runner ducks7

seems like they are a little puny.

in so young.
/ also have some little guineas.
What must I feed them. and must
I let them out or keep them up7
DO ducks and guineas have lice
on them, and must / put any grease
about either of themy
ANSWER
Little ducks should be fed the
first week on bread. soaked in sweet
milk, and given to them with a
good percent of the milk squeezed
out--that is, not in the mushy
form. This should be fed in a
trough or in pan, and 1t is a good
idea to sprinkle some coarse sand
on this bread. They should have
fine oyster shell and charcoal be-
fore them so they can get 1t at
will. They should be given just
what water they will drink, clean.
after each meal and the water
should not be kept before them per-
manently until they are past ten
days old, as they viii surely get
wet and become chilled If you al
low them to play in the water at
all times. After they are several
days old, give them some green
food--such as lettuce or finely
chopped cabbage. or grass, finely
chopped.
You can gradually change the
feed after one week old to one
part corn meal. one part shorts, one
part wheat bran, with some COM
merciaI meat scrap added to this
mixture. This feed can be given to
them regularly until they are
grown, but should be substituted
with plenty OF green food, and
some soaked or scalded cracked
corn Ground wheat and oats
should be given them once per day
as they become older. occasionally
give them this feed dry, but they
should have plenty of water after
they are two weeks old. Ducks
should have plenty Of coarse gravel.
grit and oyster shell, and also
charcoal at all times. Their quar-
tiers should be kept clean, and
their sleeping quarters dry. With
this attention your ducks should
thrive and do well. The same feed,
practically speaking, can be used
for old ducks, and tH the proper
way to feed. The little ducks
should be fed just what they will
eat every two hours.
Ducks and guineas have lice on
them, the same as chickens. In
greasing them. use only very
small amount If you use too
much it will kill them.
Feed guineas the same as you DO
chickens.

CALENDAR IN NATIONAL HOUSE
Is BEING RAPIDLY CLEANED
APPROPRIATION BILLS PASS
TON MEASURES LEFT FOR
CONSIDERATION.
Members Of Lower Body Of Congress
Do Not Want to be Charged With
Having Caused an Extra Session
and Are Making Haste to Dispose
Of All Matters Before it.
(ey Associated Press.)

Washington, D. c., Feb. 22.-The
house of representatives is rapidly clear
ing its calendar, so that no RESPONSE
bility for what now appears to be an
inevitable extra session can be charged
to the lower branch of congress. To-
day three big appropriation bills carry
ing all aggregate of $l35 900, 900 were
passed. OF these the naval act carried
$l25, o00, 900, forti6cation bill S., ,30o,-
900, and diplomatic and consular bill
about 81 100, 900. The house now has
only three more supply bills to pass
sundry civil, general deficiency and
military academy The latter probably
will not occupy more than few hours,
50 the chances are that the house will
be marking time when March 4 arrives.
The naval bill, having been approved
in the comittec of the whole, last night
was quickly disposed of today, a motion
to recommit and cut down the building
program from two battleships to one
was lost. The Notifications bill pro-
vides for coast defences of the United
States and insular possessions, but does
not include all item for the forti6cation
of the Panama canal, which will be
reported with other canal appropria-
tions III the sundry civil bill.
The diplomatic and consular bill oc-
casioned some discussion, and Repre-
sentative Harrison Of New York sue
[ceeded IN striking ont number Of its
provisions on points of order. These
had to do with participation in various
International conferences. Harrison did
not question the merits of any of the
propositions, but made his points as
remonstrance, he said, against the
practice of the state department in COM
hitting the United States to these con-
ferences without any authority Of coll
gress.
Among the provisions dropped from
the bill but which may be reinstated by
the senate, were the following:
Subscription of 50, 900 to international
prison commission.
Participation in international railway
congress.
Participation in international sesmo-
graph association.
Contribution of 50, 500 to the bureau
of interparliamentary union for promo
tion of international arbitration, and
participation in the adjourned meeting
at the Hague of the international con-
ference to promote uniform legislation
concerning letters of exchange.
By way of an amendment providing
$1O0, 900 for the construction of an en-
bassy building at the city of Mexico an
attempt was made to put into immediate
operation the new law authorizing the
purchase of the embassy and legation
buildings abroad. The amendment was
ruled out, however, on the ground that
the new law provides that there shall
first be report and estimates from the
secretary OF state.

Kneosha, Wis, Feb. 22.-Mrs. Caro-
line Durkee, es years old, widow of
Charles Durkee, third United States
senator from Wisconsin, and formerly
territorial governor of Utah, died here
late last night. Mrs. Durkee was also
sole claimant to millions of dollars
which have been sought from the Unit.
ed States government on a claim that
Senator Durkee left large number of
railway bonds in the United States
treasury in 1865. Courts of the gov
ernment declared that the effort to COL
lect the value of the bonds was man.
moth swindle. Mrs. Durkee never
questioned the decision of the court,
but she held that she did not know
whether or not her husband had left
any bonds with the government. She
had never taken any personal part in
pushing the claim. The last demand
made on the claim was for something
over $lOO, 10000
