FEED FOR DUCKS AND GEESE
One ot Best Rations for Winter 10
Bran, Shorts and Corn Meal,

Geese and ducks are very similar
in their habits OF eating. Some recon

prefer feeding II ground. especially in
winter. as this enables us TO mix the
green feed with II. Bran, shorts and
corn meal or barley meal, equal parts
by weight, mixed with clover leaves or
boiled vegetables, is one OF the very
best rations for winter. Mix mixed
with 1t improves 1t greatly. We have
secured fairly good results from feed

the addition OF small amount OF grain
gives better results. For summer

GROUND WIRES SAVE STOCK
Gives Considerable Protection From
Lightning and 10 Profitable In
Vestment for Farmers.

By FRANK NJ. WHITE. Wisconsin Ar
ricultural College.)
Grounding fence wires affords con.
siderable protection from lightnins
and is worth while investment for
farmers.
As hundreds Of valuable animals ara
struck by lightning in this state every
summer, many OF the casualties be
ing directly due to currents carried
along pasture fences, such advice is
particularly timely.
To secure the best results ground
wires ought to be placed about one
hundred feet apart and closely stapled
to the post, so as form a contact with
every one OF the fence wires. The
ground wires should also extend slight
ly above the fence post, and, like a
lightning rod, should penetrate the soil
far enough to reach moist earth. No
or 9 wire is most satisfactory for
this purpose.

WINTER SHELTER FOR SHEEP
Wise Shepherd Will See That Arrange
ments for Protection Of Flock Are
Good and Sufficient.

The shepherd who is wise enough TO
be prepared for wet wintry days ana
cold winter nights does not dread losses
from pneumonia. and the mortality In
the lambing season of next February
and March that will come from breed
ing ewes that have been weakened by
exposure. AS winter begins to draw
little nearer. he sees that ri shelter
ing arrangements are all that they
ought TO be.
Il does not matter whether the sheds
used BY the sheep are so very warm or
not. But they must not be so open that
the wind can whistle through them ana
there must be plenty Of ventilation,
says a writer in Farm Progress.
Plenty of light and ventilation, and
freedom from drafts are the main
considerations. The warmth OF the
shed is less important than the ne
cesslty OF a good. sound roof.
/ never put more than fifty sheep IN
a single shed. More than that number
will be hard TO manage ana the
chances OF accidents among ewes with
lamb will be greatly increased. The
shed ought 70 be about twice as long
as It is wide and there should be
ample room for every animal to lie
down inside its doors without the ap-
! pearance OF crowding the place. The
floor must OF course be absolutely dry
and remain that way.
The feeding rack should be placed
on one side Of the shed and should
consist of a fat-bottomed trough at
the bottom, surmounted by we'll

E. B. C. SNIPES
HOME BY FLAMES
Beautiful Country Dwelling Com
pletely Destroyed By Fire
Last Night About IL O'clock
(From Sundays Daily.)

Shortly after II o'clock last night
Anderson people observed q confla-
grafton to the northwest Of the city
and investigation revealed the fact
that the home of E. B. C. Snipes,
about five miles from the city, was
ip flames. Neighbors gathered from
nearby homeg and did everything that
they could to save the place but the
fire had made such progress that the
building WAS doomed. isss II
This was one Of the prettiest small
country houses in the county The
house was six-room, one-story
building and was modern and COM
plete in every respect. It was prob
6bly valued at from $4,000 to $4,000
and the furniture lost last night adds
to this loss. It is understood that Mr..
Snipes carried some insurance on the
building
1t was impossible to learn last night
anything concerning the origin Of the
fire and 1t Is hardly probable that
members of the Snipes family can
throw any light on the origin OF the
fire, as they had already. retired.
