GOOD CARE OF DUCKS
Fowl Cannot Eat Gummy Food
Without Wasting It.
Plenty Of Grit Must Be Available at
All Times, but It Must Not Be
Mixed With Food - Green
Stuff Is Also Essential.
By A. GALL1cHER.)

A ration that is all right for ducks
may be all wrong for chickens, and
vice versa. For instance: Whole grain
is not as good for ducks as a mixture
Of ground grains and cooked vegeta-
bles.
Whole corn may be fed occasionally,
but it should be soaked for several
hours before feeding.
Dry oats and wheat make very poor
duck feed, but both are good when
cooked and mixed with corn meal OF
boiled potatoes and bran.
It hardly pays to feed wheat to
ducks unless it is unstable. Since
thorough cooking renders musty
grain harmless it may be fed to ducks
with good results. When cooked po-
tatoes are used they should not be
mixed with the ground grain until
after the latter has been thoroughly
moistened with either milk or water.
If the dry meal is added to the
mashed potatoes a tough, sticky mass
will be the result. Don't make the
Milford chronicle., 1913-03-21

feed sloppy; just moist enough to
cling together without being gummy.
A duck cannot eat gummy feed with
out wasting it.
Other vegetables. such as turnips,
beets, rutabagas, etc, are sometimes
used instead Of potatoes. Pumpkins,
when thoroughly cooked, make very
good basis for the mash. The seeds
should always be removed
When no vegetables are to be had
we use equal parts of boiled oats,
corn meal. wheat bran, and middlings
or second -four with a little powdered
charcoal added. Some people (who
ought to know better) put sand and
oyster shell in their duck feed. When
this is done the ducks are often forced
to consume more grit than they re-
quire
OF course ducks must have plenty
of grit at all time, but it should not
be mixed with the food. We place
shallow boxes Of grit close to the feed
troughs. Oyster shell and coal cinders
in some of the boxes, and clean, coarse
sand in others.
Ducks will eat grit after every meal
If it is within reach.
They usually drink and rinse their
beaks while eating, therefore water
should be placed near the fed
troughs. Also green food is necessary
the year round. Some sort of green
stun should be given at least once
day in winter.
If cabbage is plentiful, a little may
be added to the mash each time. It
should be chopped raw. As bulk is
one Of the important elements in
ducks ration. it is good plan to
proyide an abundance Of green stun
for winter use. We usually SOW
match Of rye early in the fall for win
ter and cary spring use.
Ifit gets a good start in the fall It
viii stay green all winter. if protected
with a little straw or other covering.
The grain Of rye is unfit for poultry
feed. Unless ducks are well fed In the
winter they will not begin laying very
early in the spring. and when they do
begin their eggs viii not be as large,
nor as fertile as they otherwise would.
There is usually some shed or build
ing that can be converted into a duck

SPRoUTED GRAIN FOR FOWLS
Green Food May Also Be Supplied in
Form of Any Surplus Supply Of
Vegetables on Hand.

Where it is possible a winter crop
should be planted to furnish green
food for the fowls. It does not take a
large area to furnish green food for
the fowls, and usually plenty of space
may be found for this purpose. But
where one has only city lot, and a
green crop is out of the question, ar
rangements should be made to sproUt
oats, rye, wheat or barley. If no other
space is available a box of soil will
suffice The box may be filled with
rich garden loan if the seeds are to
remain long enough for the plants to
grow. II the grain is to be fed as
soon as the seed sprouts a box of sand
is sufficient. The box may be set in a
cellar or in the kitchen near the stove
in very cold weather.
Green food may also be supplied In
the form of any surplus vegetables
that you may happen to have on hand.
The best plan for feeding them is to
place a nail in the houses on the wall
lust high enough so that the hens will
be compelled to jump little to reacn
it. Then take a beet or any other veg
etables that you desire to feed and
stick them on the nails. It is a handy
little arrangement, and compels the
fowls to exercise for their food.

house at small expense.
II the roof Is good the rest is easy
If the weather boarding is not sufi
ciently close to keep out draughts in
cold weather cover the outside with
tarred paper or strip with lath
A board floor is better than an earth
floor, because the ducks often sti.
up the ground in a very disagreeable
manner where there is the least sign
of moisture.
In cold weather ducks should be
kept in the house, because their feet
are so tender that when they come in
contact with the ground they suffer
greatly. and hobble along as though
their backs were broken.
Provide plenty of clean bedding, and
change it frequently. Straw or litter
should be kept on the floors all the
time. If bedding material is pleRtiful
put it on several inches thick. It will
help to keep the ducks comfortable.

POULTRY RELISH SKIM MILK
One of Very Best Of Foods for Grow
Ing Chicks, Keeping Digestion
in Good Order
CBy R. G. wEATHERsToNE.)

Very few people understand the
value of skim milk as a food for poul-
try. They relish It and it is very good
for them, either sweet or sour or but
termilk, if it is not too cold.
Milk takes the place Of meat scraps
to a certain extent. In fact, the feed
ing of meat can be put down one
fourth when the fowls have all the
skim milk they can drink, and the re
suits obtained will be the same. Milk
is fine to feed laying hens and will
materially increase the egg yield.
It is one of the very best of foods
for the growing chicks, keeping their
digestion in good order and Fastening
their growth, as it contains the ele-
ments necessary for their develop
ment.
Where milk is fed regularly and
teaspoonful each of ginger and soda
added to each gallon every third or
fourth day, there will be no cholera
or other bowel troubles. Stir the mix
ture until thoroughly dissolved before
feeding. This is very easily prepared
and will keep their digestive organs
toned and sweetened.
When fattening fowls, skim milk
should be used to mix the mash. They
like it better and in this way are in
duced to eat just as much more, as
the milk while serving as moisture to
wet the mash is also a hearty food.
The food for young ducks should
be mixed with milk and curds made
from sour milk are indispensable for
young turkeys.
Remember that milk will not take
the place of water, as it so soon turns
to solid food in the crop. Keep
water before the chickens the same as
ever, no matter how much milk they
may have.
On every farm there is more or less
milk for feeding and it will pay to
see that the chickens get their share
of It.

NEWPAPERS MENACING.

CONSTANT pie, Sept. 29.-The
menaclng language of the newspapers
representing the Turkish military ele-
ment, which practically occupies the
government saddle at the present mo-
ment, confirms the uncompromising
attitude adopted by Turkey in her de-
mands upon Greece.
One paper declares that if Greece
fails to yield "she is doomed to be
driven from SalOniki and Epirus,
within the limits of her old frontier"
Another says: Greece is bound to
yield on the question of the islands in
the Aegean sea before the united Bull

New York, Sept 29.-A stop watch

throwing them into the Hudson river.
Schmidt was being examined at the
instance Of District Attorney Whitman

watch to note the time it took Schmidt
to gather his ideas and place them
into words. This was done with view
to determine whether Schmidt is in

Charleston, Sept. 29.-Mayor Grace
when requested this morning for
statement concerning his request for
congressional investigation Of Rep
resentative Whaley's election which
he has asked, dictated the follow
ing:
Il do not care to say what the pros
poets are from my standpoint in the
Whaley matter; nor do / care to say
anything at this time in reply to Mr.
Whaley's statement attacking me. The
issue is now before congress, and not
in the newspapers. For the past four
months it has been in the newspa-
pers, during all of which time, in the
face Of signed articles by me making
these charges, Mr.. Whaley was silent.
That was the time for him to answer
through the newspapers.
"He processes to be ready now to
meet the charges in congress, but it
is significant that every conceivable
influence is being brought to bear to
prevent them from coming up; and 1
am having a stupendous fight.
II have sworn that Mr.. Whaley
committed perjury four times, and
have said that If Investigated my oath
will be sustained. Mr.. ,Whaley re-
plies in an unswOrn statement, deny
ing that he committed perjury. 1
have always been taught that the
greater includes the less, and If it be
true that Mr.. Whaley has committed
perjury, would it be surprising that
he Is now ready to commit the less
offense, that is, lying when he is
not under oath?
'As to all his other statements,
which are irrelevant to the case, they
will be taken up later. In the mean
time, we will wait and see what con-
gress is willing to do"
