Having read your articles in The
Atlanta Journal and from other
writer's in other papers about the
Indian Runner Ducks, has caused
me to buy some eggs which have
just gotten. but know nothing what
ever from experience about ducks. I
will thank you very. much If you
will tell me through The Journal
just how to manage them. Give de-
tails from the time they are
Matched until grown. Thanking you
in advance. 1 am,
Yours very truly,
MRS. b. n. BARROW.
ANSWER.
At least one-half dozen or more
times have given full instruet tons
how to manage little ducks through
The Atlanta journal. Am sorry,
you missed seeing these articles. y
Little ducks, when first hatched,,
should be placed I'm a warm, dry.
brooder or box. They should never
be allowed to get wet or become
chilled. If so. they will die. The
bottom of the brooder or coop
should be covered with coarse dry
sand, not dust or damp dirt. After
they are SO hours old they should
be fed their first feed of bread
soaked in milk with the milk
squeezed out, so that the bread is
not sloppy or too soft. This
should be fed in a little trough
or in a pan and after they have
had their first feed this should be
removed. Every two hours for the
first two or three days they should
be fed just what they will eat up
clean and the second day you can
feed them equal parts of 'bran'
shorts and corn meal. II the bran
is very coarse it should be sifted
and only the fine part fed A small
amount of coarse sand should be
mixed with this feed. After they
are one week to 10 days old, about
10 per centage commercial feed
scraps should be added to this soft
feed and increased as they grow
older. II 1t can be had, sweet
milk or even fresh buttermilk is
better to mix up their soft feed
with than water. After they are
two to three weeks old, cracked
corn, wheat and oats or any Of the
commercial scratch feeds should
be given once or twice a day,
emitting at that time their soft
feed. They should have plenty
green food every day. They should
also have water to drink after each
feed and remove 1t as soon as
their appetites are satisfied 1t
should not remain before them until
after they are three or four weeks
old as they will get wet and be-
come chilled.

MRS. H. P. HUGHES.
ANSWER.
Your little ducks feed should. be
changed and give at least one feed
CdOn 0dy VI CHICK IeGQ
and it should be dampened before
given to them. They are old
enough now so they need some
coarse feed, also plenty green food.
If fed constantly on soft feed their
digestive organs will get out of
condition and they will have more
or less trouble with indigestion and
they need some grain, such as the
chick food is composed of to help
their digestion. 1t is also possible
that you are keeping them in too
close quarters at night. Give them
plenty fresh air and they are all
right, just so they are protected
from rain and dampness.

that has not been looked after prop
erly beforehand that her udder will
become very much inflamed with the
first calf. They should be well cared
for for three or four weeks before
calving and the udder rubbed care

has been added a small amount of
salt, and this is the best thing you
can now apply to the udder. Raw

carbolic acid in 1t will also take the

AS I am beginner in raising White
Indian Runner Ducks 1 ask you how
can I distinguish brakes from the
ducks when they are small. Thanking
you for the information, am, Yours

ANSWER.
1t is easy to distinguish the ducks
from the brakes after they are ~
to Is weeks old The duck always
makes a quacking noise. and the
drake does not quack. but makes
slight kissing noise. AS they become
older and mature the drake has sew
eral curl feathers at the top OF the
tail, but the ducks and brakes can
easily be distinguished by the noise
they make.

Father of Widow of Dead
Millionaire Disputes
the Report.

New York, y. Y. Aug. 10.-Persistent
reports that Mrs. Madeline Force Aston
is contemplating a contest Of the will
Of her husband, John Jacob Aston. have
been set at rest by an emphatic denial
from William H. Force, Mrs Astors
father
Those who announced that a contest
Of the will was under consideration de-
clared recently that there were grounds
for believing that the courts would
give the expected heir much larger
share Of the Astor property than under
provisions OF the will, which provides
that leach child who shall survive,
other than his son, Vincent, and his
daughter. Muriel. shall receive $4,000
600. to be held in trust until such child
shall attain the age of p years"
The law regarding provision for a
posthumous child is as follows:
Whenever a testator shall have a
child born after the making of the
last will and shall die leaving such
child unprovided for. every child shall
succeed to the same portion Of the
estate as would have been distributed
as If such parent would have died in
testate ."

NEGRO QUESTION
PROMISED A BREAK
Roosevelt Tells How Matter
Was Disposed of at Pro
greSsiVe Convention.

Oyster Bay, y. Y, Aug. 1O.-How near
the Progressive party came TO a break
at its first national convention was
told today by Col Roosevelt The ne
gro question, he said. created a breach
which threatened to make serious
trouble. The disagreement said Col.
Roosevelt was due largely to the fact
that some Of the northern delegates,
who were genuinely anxious to help
the negro in the south. did not under
stand how to do II.
They told the colonel that by refus-
ing TO give the southern blacks repre-
sentation he was treating them unfair
" and that they could not consent TO
such action. Col Roosevelts reply, he
said, was to point out to them the at
titude of the negro delegates in the
Republican convention and say that if
they wished to create these conditions
within the Progressive party, they
they must do it without him.
In the face of this ultimatum, the
colonel had his way and he believed he
succeeded in convincing those who firEt
opposed him that it was the right way.

FOGG TELLS HIS
SIDE OF STORY
Declares He Is Employing
More Union Men Than
ANY Ell PasO Show.


Manager Howard Fogg, Of the FL
Paso. Crawford and Airdome theaters,
when asked today relative to the diff
ferences between himself and the
stage employees union, said:
Il went before the Central Labor
union and offered to take back all my
men at the Kansas City scale. if they
would return at once, so as not to in
terfere with my shows and would take
into the union the men who were loyal
to me. This the union agreed to do,
but it was three weeks before any
signed, and then it did not agree to
take into the union my men who had
been loyal to me. The Kansas City
scale, which I offered to pay. was more
than the musicians get for a nights
work. yet the stage hands all have
Jobs elsewhere during the day and their
work requires no skill. while with a
musician il is a life task 10 perfect
himself for his work. But the stage
hands even turned this down rather
than take in my men, Notwithstanding
that the union did not have enough
competent men to supply me with all
needed.
Union musicians are working in my
house and have been regularly: they
receive the union scale and fair treat
ment at my hands and say so. all OF
them. Our relations have always been
extremely pleasant.
Il always give preference TO union
men. when they are competent, but the
union must furnish me good men and
I want the right to say who works and
who does not and to scrutinize the
payrolls and see that all men who draw
pay are working. This is where the
union and I had our disa greement-
Il have always been fair to all my
employees. I am employing more union
people now than the tent show. It is
employing all nOn-uniOn musicians and
has some non-union stage hands at
work: some men who We're at work at
the Airdome for me last week. I don't
hear any roar from Henry Walker
about that, yet I have more union men
in my employ than the tent show has"
