NEW POULTRY FARM STARTED
at seItsVilIe, Unchanged
Upon Practical Lines.

So important has the poultry in,
dustry become that Uncle Sam has
started a second experimental poultry
farm on his own account. He wants
to find out what are the best breeds
and what is the best treatment and
management to make them most
profitable. He will not trust to the
experimental work by the state of
Maine, New York, Ohio or any other
He will have it done under his own
supervision, so that no mistakes will
be made.
His new poultry farm is located at
Beltsville, Md, some 10 miles out of
Washington and beyond the Maryland
experiment station at College Park.
1t is being developed by the bureau
Of animal husbandry along practical
down-to-date plans, and the equipment,
while of good appearance is simple
and inexpensive in character, so that
the veriest novice can copy the ideas
without a great expenditure either of
time or money. Sixty acres have been
set aside for the poultry farm, but as
yet it is only in the development stage,
and much has to be done before a real
ly workable demonstration plant is es-
tablished. Most of the houses are o.
the colony portable type.

COLORED ROUEN DUCKS
Good Qualities Make This Breed
Most Desirable.
Fine Market Bird, but Does Not Ma.
turs as Early AZ Does the Pskln
or Aylesbury-ls Hardy
and Prolific.
CBy @. E. HowARp1

The Colored Rouen duck is deserv.
eddy popular throughout this country,
and is considered one Of the most
profitable varieties to keep. These
ducks are said to have come originally
from the city of Rouen, In Normandy.
It is known that large quantities OF
poultry are raised in Normandy, and
while there may be no positive proof
that these ducks came originally
from that city, large numbers Of birds
closely resembling them are to be
found In the market places there.
Some writer's claim that the name
should be Roam" owing to their
color, but really the color itself does
not support this contention
The Rouen duck is a fine market
bird, but does not mature as early as
does the Pekin or the Aylesbury. The
flesh is considered very delicate and
the breed is acknowledged to be ex-
cellent for table purposes, being easily
fattened. The Rouen will be found a
profitable bird TO raise on the farm
being hardy, prolific, quiet Of dispo-
sition, and OF very beautiful plumage.
Their eggs are not as large as those of
Lawrence democrat. (Lawrenceburg, Tenn.) 1884-1925, 1913-07-30

the Pekin, and are diverse in color.
The Rouen is undoubtedly closely
related to the Mallard duck; its
plumage alone would make good this
belief, But the shape of the domesti-
Gated Rouen duck has been greatly
modified from that of the wild Nal
lard, the body is grown longer and
heavier, with tendency to drop down
In the rear, the wings have lost the
power OF flight which the wild an
cestor possessed. The plumage. how
ever, remains almost the same.
Both the drake and duck clothed in
plumage attractive and pleasing to the
eye, are as much fancier's fowls as any
OF the varieties of chickens, yet they
are Of much value as market birds.
The only objection to them, aside from
their slow maturing qualities, is that
Of dark pinfeathers This should not
stand against them any more than it
does against the many valuable varie-
ties Of chickens that have dark plum
age and dark pinfeathers. To the far
mer who intends raising ducks for
market purposes they are to be recon-
mended.

cuIIino Out Old Hens.

1t is well to keep in mind that from
the standpoint of egg production pull
lets are more profitable than older
hens. 1t is false economy to retain
hens more than two years old unless
for breeding or exhibition purposes.
Get rid of the old stock in the late
summer or early fall, retaining only
the very best hens for breeding pur-
poses. Plenty of room should be pro-
vided for the young pullets to develop
and this can be accomplished best
by getting rid of the old stock which
shows signs of deterioration.
