GOOD DUCK TO RAISE
Black Cayuga Considered to Be
Profitable Fowl.
Thought to Be Equal to PekIn for
Early Market and Can BE Grown
as cheaply-SpIendid Birds
for Restricted Range.

The black Cayuga is distinctly an
American duck, having been bred so
long in this country that all trace of
its origin is lost 1t is said that it
was first found in the central part of
New York, on Cayuga lake. BY some
it is supposed TO have originally come
from the wild black duck. For many
years the Cayuga has been raised in
this country and has been considered
by those who have bred it to be a
profitable duck to keep.
By some raisers 1t is thought to be
as good as the Pekin for early markets
and the claim is made. that it can
be grown as cheaply. The farmer
who desires a good, practical duck
TO raise on his farm in conjunction
with other poultry will do well to
give this valuable bird a good try

because Of the shock and chill to the

course, decreased

the animal is kept, the more food will
be required to keep her warm.

and form a strong attachment for
their home, evincing no inclination or
desire to stray far away from the
place where they we're bred. They
are hardy and profitable, producing
from eighty to ninety eggs in the
spring, and sometimes they also lay
again in the autumn. They are easily
kept in good condition, but If fed too

by growing a green crop IN it while

WINDBREAK IN AN ORCHARD
One Great Drawback ls That Unless
Watched Closely Breeding Place
Is Afforded insects.

CBy L. Army. Cornell University
The important point is to place the
tree in such place that it will have
the advantage Of high altitude, which
means good air drainage, but at the
same time that it will not be exposed
to high winds. which means quick
evaporation. The best means of ac-
complishing this is to provide the
orchard with windbreak.
Windbreaks should be planted with
care and judgment, since they often
become hindrance instead of help
in places where they are wrongly
planted. The one great drawback to
them is the fact that unless watched
very closely they may become breed
ing place for dangerous insects; but
if care is exercised in this direction
the good effects of them will over
balance this point. That is, if the
orchard is regularly and intelligently
sprayed, the insect problem is not an
economically serious one
Windbreaks should contain both
evergreen anC deciduous trees The
object is not to stop the wind, since
that would be almost as harmful as
having too much, but 1t is simply to
check 1t SO that the force will be
broken by the time il reaches the
trees. To this end the evergreens will
check the wind during the winter and
the deciduous ones will help during
the summer. Aside from this point,
the break made from the mixed types
of tree will be more efficient than the
one composed of all evergreens, al
though the latter will check the winds
both during winter and summer.
The spruces are probably the most
common evergreen trees that are used
for this purpose, because they are com
paratively quick growers and make a
good growth on a wide range of soils
Among the deciduous trees the naples
and the birches lead. and both do we'll
under varying conditions. The trees
are planted closer at first than they
are wanted, so that an immediate eff
feet can be gotten. and as soon as they
begin to grow or so make the break
too dense. enough are taken out so
that the break will not be barrier.
When properly placed, the wind
break can be one OF the greatest Is-
sets the fruit grower can have. This
fact is just being realized, and has
been brought to light by the large
amount of injury incident 20 exposed
and unprotected orchard sites.

1t seems that everything is woven
in stripes this year, and the frock of
Bingham for the half-grown schoolgirl
may show them as well managed as
they are in the visiting gown made for
her mother. The handling of striped
fabrics is not particularly simple
matter, but when well done the re-
suits are something 10 be proud of.
A good model for a dress of striped
material is shown in the picture. 1t
is in every way commendable for the
girl of from nine to fourteen years and
merits the attention of those who
must provide clothes that shall be at
tractive for girls of the awkward age.
One of the strongest points in favor of
striped fabrics for children's wear lies
in the fact that they allow simplicity
and variety at the same time. BY the
simple eXpedient of changing the di-
rection of the stripes the trimming
is provided of the same material as
the frock.
The model shown is so good that
1t should be followed exactly as it Is,
by the copyists who use it. The bodice
is cut with long shoulders and large
arm's-eye, and the simplest of neck
openings. In it the stripes run up
and down and the slight fullness gath
cred in. at the waist line gives them

running horizontally. makes a neat
decorative feature and adds to the
shapeliness of the waist. In the elbow
length sleeves the stripes run length

The neck and sleeves are finished
with an embroidered edging in sim
pie, well-made design. Pearl but
tons, two at each side, and simulated
buttonholes of narrow braid, are eff
fective little touches on the front Of
the waist.
The skirt is moderately full with
panel at the front and plaits at the
sides and back Above the three-inch
hem a band of the material, with the
stripes running horizontally, gives the
skirt a neat finish and a desirable
flare at the same time.

suede or of some heavy fabric. Alto
gether, this dress follows many good
points in the modes of spring for
grownups and at the same time con-
trives to be prettily childish and very
practical. 1t is meant to be developed
in wash fabrics and Is easy to launder.

GOOD START WITH CHICKENS
Amateur Should Begin With Few
Fowls, Using Best Breeds and
Carefully Note Mistakes.

The beginner who has had no ex-
perience with poultry is usually an
enthusiast, and aims to do too much
in a short time.
No one should expend a sum of
money without at least fully under
standing the objects in view and how
to accomplish them. The beginner
should begin with few fowls, using
pure breeds, carefully noting all mis-
takes made
At the end of the year he may find
that he has failed to make a profit,
but he will have acquired knowledge
that will prove valuable in the future.
