WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Through the American State Department invi- tations have been sent to the South American republics asking them to send delegates to Washington, where a conference will be held by the rel,- resentatives of the American repuh. lies to discuss the problems result ing from the present war. The dele gates will be the guests of the Unit ed States government.
 It is hoped to arrange for code of procedure for all the nations of Central and South America and to prevent any possible trouble with the belligerent powers of Europe.
 Several of the South American countries have been charged with aiding one side or the other and with having failed in maintaining the neu- trality of the government and the people. This condition has led to some friction with the American State Department and the warning nations, which look to the United States to prevent the violations of so long as the Monroe Doc Urine is part of the foreign policy of the nation. ...

PETROGRAD, Dec. 31.-The Ger. mans operating along the Pilica river have made many savage and desper. ate attacks upon the. Russian line.

 The storms now sweeping over the western battlefield has caused a tenn porary Hull in the fighting along the Aisne river. The French attacks in the Argonne district have been re- pulsed.

GOOD METHOD TO
HATCH DUCK EGGS
Best to Use ChiCken-Hens for the
Purpose-Be Careful Not to
0verfeed the Fowls.

Ducks eggs may be Matched in in
chicken-hens when possible. If one
wishes to hatch ducklings very early
in the season, then the incubator is
the only thing that will do the work.
Ducks scarcely ever get broody and
when they do, as a rule the season is
far advanced. Besides it is poor pol
icy to place eggs under a duck.
Don't keep duck eggs over a week
after they are laid. The fresher they
are the better they will hatch. After
a duck egg is ten days old it is entirely
worthless so far as Matching is con-
cerned. They should be very carefully
handled, as the albumen is much thin
ner than that of other eggs. This fact,
coupled with the age limit, accounts
for so many poor matches; especially
where the eggs have been shipped.
AS soon as the eggs are laid, if not
placed at once for Matching, they
should be carefully wrapped in paper
and turned every day. They should
De kept Wu6T0 Tie temperature Is
neither too high nor too low-about
fifty to sixty-five degrees F. Don't
keep eggs intended for Matching in a
damp cellar.
When ducks are laying their appe-
tie increases, but one must be care
full not to overfeed. If their food is
not too highly concentrated and there
is plenty of coarse grit and sand within
reach, there is little danger of over
feeding. Three or four square meals
a day will not hurt laying duck.
When overfed they lay double-yolked
eggs.
Never give ducks buttermilk, or in
fact any other kind of milk, to drink.
1t may be used to moisten their feed.
however Buttermilk, skimmilk and
"clabber" are all valuable in duck
feeding, but they should be used only
for moistening the feed and not as
drink

Farmers and pig raisers do not
always appreciate the value of green
feeds and succulent pastures for their
animals. Too often the hog is con-
sidered a scavenger and his ability to
use waste is regarded as his chief
value. However we'll he serves this
purpose, he will pay we'll for good
care. feed and housing.
Forage crops are especially bene-
fetal to young growing animals. 1t
is possible to grow them much more
profitably and successfully when a
good green field of palatable and nu-
tritious pasturage is provided. Expert
ments and practical farmers expert
ences prove that gains in weight are
made at less cost on forage than in

animals are put il the fattening pen
their gains are unusually rapid and
profitable. The green feeds eaten are
of much value just to keep the pigs

the appetite keen.
The entire hog herd can be run on
forage crops and will profit by this
method of management. Younger ami
mails seem to derive the most benefit,
and fattening hogs the least. Herd
sows and the herd boar are benefited
by having green feeds. 1t is a good
plan to have the brood SOW running on
green pasture at narrowing time, as
this is conducive to a strong, healthy
litter of pigs. She should be kept on
green forage from the time she far
rows. The young pigs will soon learn
to eat, and the exercise and the green
food in its natural state will start them
along in good condition and tend to
keep them so.
The method of feeding when on

DOCKING OF LAMBS
QUITE NECESSARY
Practise Is Not Cruel and Is Alb.
soluteIy Essential for CIeanIi-
ness and Appearance.
CBy F. r. PAKE.)

Lambs should be locked wher
ABOUT week old. This is not a crue
operation and is absolutely necessary
for cleanliness and appearance.
Docking looks to be simple enough
but it requires great care. If the tai
is cut too short with a knife the lamt
is likely to bleed to death. Some
shepherds scar with a hot iron the
end of the tail after being cut witt
knife or chisel on a block of wood
and this generally stops bleeding.
There is now, however, an instru
ment on the market which does the
work quickly and effectually and with
no bad results. 1t is a pair of blunt
edged pincers which are heated tc
white heat and then used to bite" of,
the tail. When these hot pincers are
used the tail may be cut closely with
out bleeding.
After the operation the end of the
tall should be covered with clean pine
tar-some shepherds use coal tar-tc
prevent flies from troubling the lambs
The animals should be watched close
ly, particularly If the docking is done
late in the season, until the wound
has healed, to see that no flies have
attacked them.
The lambs should be castrated when
locked. This, although a simple
operation. should not be attempted BY
novice, but should be done by an
experienced man.
