Care OF The Ducks

Water in abundance for drinking
purposes is necessity, and amateurs
sometimes make great mistake in
failing to recognize that fact, says the
Farm and Fireside. Ducks fed on soft
mash must have a chance to dip their
bills in water to wash out their nos
trils or they will be in danger of smo-
thering to death, as the mash gets in
to their nostrils. Indeed, they some
times get their nostrils filled with mud
and rush to the water dish
1t will be seen that the dish in which
water is given must be deep enough
SO that the ducks may bury their bills
in the water. Self feeding fountains
are best for young ducklings, as they
prevent the youngsters getting their
feathers wet, something which must
be carefully avoided.
On large duck farms the ducklings
are always driven to the houses on the
approach of storm. 1t is well to
have the water dishes in the duck
houses all night, as they frequently
drink. Many growers keep lighted
lantern in each house at night in order
to keep the ducks from becoming ner-
vous or alarmed and piling up in a
corner.

Farmers Cooperative Demonstration
Work In MARYLAND

Two years ago this system of prac-
teal education was introduced in the
five counties south of Baltimore. Last
year Baltimore county raised the ne
cessary fund and county agent was
installed in cooperation with the U.
S. Department of Agriculture. The
Department now has fund which
will enable it to pay half the salary
of local agent to work in any county
of Maryland where the people raise
the other half. There is not enough
money for all the counties, but it will
be applied on the above basis in the
counties that first comply with the
conditions. In some counties the ne
cessary six or seven hundred dollars is
raised by private subscription. In
Baltimore county the School Board
has fund for agricultural education,
part of which has been applied to De-
monstration Work.
Most people seem TO think that it
would be best and most equitable to
have the County Commissioners APP
proprlate the money, but there is
question as to whether they have the
authority without the passage of an
enabling act Such an act has been
endorsed by the State Grange and by
leading citizens in a number of coun-
ties. So far no objection has been
