USING MANURE SPREADER.

It's Good Servant, but You Must
Know How to Put Il to Work.
There are different ways of using q
manure spreader. The best way is to
set the machinery in such way as to
give the slowest possible speed to the
apron. If set in this manner the beat
er gets two strokes at the manure, and
the apron moving at high speed it
gets only one stroke. The more strokes
the beater has at the same amount of
manure the finer it will be. If operated
in this way it will not deliver as heavy
a coat as it would if the apron moved
faster, hut it does deliver it in much
better condition.
If one wishes to put on heavier
coat~of manure the ground should be
gone over again with the apron set at
slow speed. Some farmers never use
their manure spreaders except at the
lowest possible speed The practical
value of manure depends largely upon
the thoroughness with which it is pack
ed into the soil. This does not neces-
sarily mean a lump Of soil and q lump
Of manure, buta grain of manure With
a grain of soil.-Orange Judd Farmer.

MAKING Il 1t
FARM PAY
By c. c. 0WsflELD

i would recommend the little farm
owner to buy several sittings of eggs
from u reliable breeder Any stand
ard stock is good enough. Give the
eggs to sitting hens, ten or q dozen to
each. It is not wise to start in more
extensively, for one seasons expert
ence is necessary.
II thirty female birds OF good size
and in good condition are selected late
In the fall and placed in roomy pen
they will naturally produce about 8, 200
eggs during the season, beginning in
midwinter. Then 1ncubators may be
brought into the scheme of produc-
hon. The first: dozen eggs from duck
are not certain to be fertile, and 1t is
best to give them to hen, reserving
the incubators for the production Of a
regular supply Of marketable fowls.
If the mating is normal the hatch
ing will be Is to 90 per cent Of the
whole egg supply,a and by giving the
ducklings ordinary care in the brooder
nearly all Of them will come to ma
turity. For one day after Matching no
food is to be given. Then the rations
Of bran and cornmeal may begin.
Heavy feeding is to he avoided.
Assuming that the place will pro-
duce from 1000 to 5000 ducks, the in
cubators should be started as soon as
possible in the spring: Aim to have
them going by the LIST of March. They
will be needed right along till fall.
Begin selling at any time after the
ducks are two months old. ..-.--.
This commodity, if nicely handled,
is universally regarded as delicacy,
and as prices are liberal there is q
steady income after the first year. The
rules which insure success are simple.
Cleanliness in the pens is imperative,
although ducks like to paddle about on
wet ground in summer. Plenty Of
green food is another essential. and
grit must be supplied oil winter.
The poulterer should send away once
year to a recognized breeder for a
sitting of eggs in order that good
males may be, kept on hand. In this
way size and high breeding qualities
will be assured. ,r ..

The Fourth Of July bids fair to be
one of the dullest Fourths Randall ever
witnessed. The people Of the village
and vicinity are now thoroughly alive
to the fact that there is nothing do
ing Not even a bowery dance in
honor Of the day. It occurs to the
writer that something could have
been done by the people of this little
village towards celebration. It has
been a much discussed matter and a
failure to celebrate here means that
many will visit other towns on that
day which does not speak well for
Randall as the most important town
between Staples and Little Falls.
People from all around the country
come to this little town to do their
trading and why not have them here
on this day Of all days, instead Of
leaving them to do without or seek
their amusement in some other town.

+ there is one place more than an
other where persons brains
must be exercised it is on the lit
tie farm. Both production and
selling have to be managed with the
incest Skill and business sense. There
is no room for waste. Products should
be of kind for which there Is GER
tain demand, and then they need to be
sold at the right time and in the right
way.
Otherwise failure will overtake the
enterprise, or, at best, it will only be a
halfway success. Studying the needs
Of the market and observing the prices
which commodities will command
when fresh and wholesome are i'm
portant textures of modern farming.
OF the thousands of people who con-
slider poultry raising perhaps nineteen
in every twenty think Of chickens.
They need to broaden their vision and
study ducks.
Duck farms now existing could be
multiplied many times over without
enlarging the supply beyond trade re-
quirements. Prices are on very prof
table basis. Ducks at the age of six
to eight months sell readily at 81 to
$1.25. The outside cost of raising
them need not exceed 25 cents. They
are less liable to disease than are
chickens. Eighty or 80 per cent of
them will come to maturity. Wet
weather. while death to chickens, is
favorable to ducks. ~.
The food is much the same as for
other poultry. By getting plenty of
clover ducks will thrive without grain
or other expensive articles Of diet
They are good foragers on farm and
yet cause less trouble than almost any
other kind Of fowl.
When it comes to fattening time in
the fall grain is necessary. One of the
first essentials in the summer Is
swimming pond or tank. This must
not be omitted from the yard or field
where the ducks are kept. Plenty Of
clean water for drinking or to splash
In will just about insure healthy and
thrifty flock. ,-
