ii the right amount OF moisture is
applied We run our machines at
1O2 degrees, raising it to 1O3 degrees
the last week. They need more moist
ure than hen eggs as they evaporate
faster. Ducklings do not require
nearly so much heat after the first
week as do chickens, nor do they need
artificial heat nearly so long, but they
need good ventilation and must have
plenty of fresh air at all times.
When only a few are raised hens
will take care of both Matching and
brooding.
Stale bread, soaked in milk or
water, squeezed out dry and sprinkl-
ed with sand or grit makes excellent
duck food for the first week. Bran
moistened with milk or water and
sprinkled with sand is also good for
young ducklings and always give
water when feeding, deep enough so
they can bury and rinse off the bill,
but don't let them get into the water
or get wet even in hot weather, as
they might get chilled and die. Keep
feed and water dishes clean, as any
mash will soon sour if left in the dish
and when sour is poison for duck
lings. Feed about five times a day.
When two weeks old we add little
beef scrap to the mash. Greens must
be provided in some form as they are
necessary for their health. When five
or six weeks old we reduce the feed
to three times day, with wheat or
cracked corn for the evening meal,
with plenty left over, as they will eat
at night as we'll as by day. They are
hearty eaters and rapid growers, and
at 10 weeks will weigh three to three
and a half pounds.
Any kind of a shed will do for a
house it kept dry underfoot, and a
two foot fence will keep them yarded.

A FEW POINTERS.
Duck eggs take % days to hatch.

Duck eggs take % days to hatch.
Duck eggs need more moisture than
hen eggs and if Matched in incubator
should be sprinkled with luke warm
water Zoo to lob degrees). If Matched
with hens they should be sprlnkled
lightly the last five days or have some
damp soil in the box under the straw.
When necessary to catch a duck
always catch them by the neck or
wing, NEVER by the leg.
Don't handle ducks more than is
necessary. They are easily excited
and excitement will stop a laying
duck from laying and make a duck
that is fattening lose flesh.
Always have plenty of grit or sand
where the ducks can get it.
In mating Indian Runners allow five
or six ducks with one drake.
Success depends upon the manage
ment and tn" management depends
upon the han. On his judgment
hinges the question of profit and loss.

Indian Runner Duck Culture.
By e. q. Vashus.

Running water is not at all neces-
sary but ducks require plenty of fresh
clean water for drinking and in YES
sells deep enough for them to bury
and rinse off the bill. They are
great foragers and find part of their
food when given free range, but they
can be successfully handled in small
uuarters-a two foot fence being
sufficient to enclose them.
There are many points in favor of
duck culture, as they are free from
lice, roup or other diseases so COM
mon to chickens.
Everyone knows something of the
immensely of the poultry business,
but few realize the possibilities of
ducks and especially the breeding OF
Indian Runner Ducks.
These ducks are adaptable to any
locality. Land that is good for moth
ing from a farming standpoint is
good place for ducks They will build
up fertility faster than any other live
stock that can be put upon land.
They can be raised with less loss than
chickens and kept in larger tiocks
and their meat and egg products
command the very highest prices on
the market.
These ducks are hardy and vigorous
and as their chief characteristic is
their laying quality, they have come
to stay, and the person who gives
them special attention will realize a
good profit from them in the future.
One of the secrets Of success is to
start with pure bred stock, for blood
will tell in ducks as we'll as other
poultry. 1t is mistake to think
that an egg laid by any kind of a
duck will do because it is cheap. The
best is none too good.
Having a good foundation, it is
wonderful what can be done with a
small number By this method you
get experience gradually as your flock
increases.

will, if properly handled, produce
from $50 to 200 eggs a year, or nine
times their own weight in eggs. Is
there any chicken that will do as wellr
think not. In the Indian Runner
we have duck that is profitable for
both eggs and meat. AS table fowl
these ducks are delicious. Their
flesh is tender and juicy. Our laying
ducks are fed mash twice day with
wheat or cracked corn at night 1--WE
believe in wet mash for ducks and
dry mash for chickens) with oyster
shell and grit before them at all times.

j. w. Hank q Son of Ellensburg,
regular advertisers in The Ranch,
say, "We are selling all our eggs this
year and have twice the flock we had

Crane

Charles X. Crane Of Chicago treasurer Of the
Democratic campaign fund this year, is the man
who was named minister to China by Taft in
July of 1909 and recalled in October Of the same
year because he had talked indiscreetly. He was
recalled, virtually discharged, just as he was
leaving for the Orient. Crane is a Chicago cap
italist, and the sincerity of his devotion to any
cause may be measured by the fact that he was
che of the chief contributors to the Roosevelt
fund this year, the story being current that he
"dug up not only for the campaign in Illinois,
but in Pennsylvania as well.
After the Chicago convention, Mr. Crane, it
will be remembered, made a hasty exit in the
direction of Baltimore, and when next seen he
had moved into the Democratic camp. With
that brand of political astuteness which consists
of waiting until a winner is in sight and then
jumping into the band-wagOn and grabbing a
front seat, Crane hesitated until Wilson was
chosen by the BourbOns, and then hOtfooted 1t
for the Wilson tal1y-hO. In three years he
has been a Taft man. Roosevelt man and Will
son man. He doesn't need money, and political
preferment alone would hardly pay adequate
dividends on his cash investment in presidential
candidates. What other explanation of Crane
political conversions can there be than that they
are dictated by disappointment, malice and de-
sire for revenge on Taft? incidentally, general
opinion seems to be that Taft did the proper
thing when he separated Mr.. Crane from his DIP
1omatic Job three years ago.

LITTLE INTERVIEWS

u G. H. BUTTOLPH-0pen voting In
the nominating convention Is the best
assurance of square deal for the peo-
pie.
o. C. SWAIN-The citizens ticket
movement was good as far as it went,
but it ought to have been promptly
followed up with organization of the
forces of good government.
E. L. SCHWARZBERG - 1t was
an object lesson to see the Portuguese
swarming at the banks drawing their
money to buy homes for themselves
F. B. DAMON-The Portuguese are
the thriftiest class in these islands.
INSPECTOR GIBSON-The fall
school year will open next month and
extensions and alterations to school
buildings now in process of construc-
ton are being rushed so as to have
the buildings ready for occupancy by
the time school opens. We are ex
pecting large attendance this year.
PAUL SUPER-We are busy now
selecting association committees for
the coming fiscal year. This should
have been done last May but my go
ing away at the time !: necessitated
postponing the work, which is being
hurried now. We shall be able to an
nounce the new committees in few
days now.
ATTORNEY BROWN-These Orient
al storekeepers have a habit of ignor-
ing the license inspectors warning
in regard to licenses until they receive
a summons to appear in court. Then
they scurry around and get their Ii
censes. BY imposing fines on these
offenders as we'll as those who appear
without licenses, We are gradually
putting a stop to this practice
A. T. WISDOM-The Y. NJ. c. A.
cafeteria has undergone a lot of new
improvements and alterations, which
means that we shall now be able to
serve twice the number of people as
heretofore in the same length of time =
short-orders will be ready both for
breakfast and lunch, and as a result
of the extensions the Y. NJ. c. 4. cafe
terra is the best restaurant in town.

STEAL"

Honolulu. I. H.. Aug. l6, l3l2.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletln,
Sn:-When our inCoherent and In
accurate but Interesting and explosive
| ex-governor returned from the Chi
cago convention wearing badge
Thou shalt not steal" il seems that
it was personal and expiatOry, for,
like his maker, he now admits that
most of the Roosevelt contests were
attempts to steal. AS loyal Yale
graduate allow me to quote TO him
from the most reliable, falr-minded
and respected journal in the country,
a paper which is supporting not TAFT
but Wilson. the opinion OF one OF
Yale's most honored graduates and a
member of its corporation, upon the
convention:
Otto T. Barnard Of New York, who
won the respect OF the country when
a candidate for mayor of his city, and
who was thoroughly familiar with the
proceedings of the Chicago convention,
is thus quoted in the New York Trib-
une:
The third-term party was con-
ceiVed in the sin of one mans selfish
ness and born in the iniquity of an at
tempt to steal the nomination from
the Republican party at the Chicago
convention, by fictitious contests and
otherwise. There was no stealing in
the Chicago convention. The third
termers tried to Jimmy" it, but the
police did not stand in with the bur-
glars. AS to the election, rest assur-
ed that no one will ever serve a third
term in the White House consecutive,
intermittent or from an Outlook cof-
fee cooler. That is settled forever, in
advance
