FEW PRACTICAL DUCK NOTES
Avoid Danger Of Fowls Becoming
Frightened and smOthering Each
Other Keep Food Clean.

Shavings make the best beds for
ducks. Let the ducks make their own
nests In the shavings.
Unless a lantern or some other light
Is kept burning at night in sheds
where large numbers of ducks are con
fined, they are apt to become fright
ened and huddle together and smother
each other.
It doesn't pay to feed duck after
It is ten weeks old.
Ducks win eat anything that is set
before them, but their food should
always be clean. II It is sour or CON
tains tainted meat. it will cause death.
Il much green food is fed ducks be-

A big-hearted purchaser OF Red
Cross seals In a southern city recently
complained because the seals did not
come in sheets larger than 100. He
had prepared Christmas package FOR
his daughter and had conceived the
idea that he would wrap it entirely in
Christmas seals. AS the present was
bulky, the sheets Of 100 we're not suf-
ficient. He solved his problem, how
ever, by pastfng several sheets Of seals
on large piece Of wrapping paper, in

Curious Phenomenon,

People of Macedonia, in Pottawatta-
mic county. are rather mystified over
ia curious phenomenon which has been
noticed there for the past few weeks.
This phenomenon is in the form of a
Iphosphorent glare which may be seen
at night in spots through the mud
after heavy rain. These spots
vary from the size of dollar to two
or three inches in diameter and when
examined seem TO be no different
from the mud about them. They ap.
pear only in places where the sur
face of the mud has been broken in
some manner, or along banks or
bitches where the surface is uneven.
They seem to be in no certain place;
where they are seen one night there
will be none the next, and new ones
will be found at place which pre-
viously had none So far no reason
has been given for this phenomenon.

PETITION IS NOT FILED
Oskaloosa Will Remain in the Dry
Column Without Contest.

Oskaloosa is to remain dry. That
is, efforts that have been in progress
during several weeks for a petition
of consent for the operation of
"mulct law" saloons in Oskaloosa,
have been discontinued and the work
abandoned, according to leaders in
the work.
To be within their rights before
the law the petition makers had until
Tuesday evening at midnight to give
legal notice of filing. This they did
not do and the petition that has been
in process of formation will not be
filed with the board of supervisors.
IL is understood that the canvassers
secured signatures from more than a
majority of the voters at the spring
election, but that the number over a
majority was not sufficient to war
rant filing, and the consequent con-
test.
BY not filing the petition that has
been in circulation the canvassers
retain the right to prepare another
petition at any time within the cur
rent year Had the petition been filed
and found insufficient, another petit
tion could not be presented within
the year.
