MAKING PROFIT WITH GEESE
Much Depends on Kind Of Fowls That
Are HaIsed--PlentIfuI Pasturaoe
Saves Feed Bllls.

The profit made from geese depends
on the kind of fowl that Is raised
Common geese weigh ten to thirteen
pounds. The goslings weigh from eight
to ten pounds. The profit on one Of
these is from sixty cents to dollar.
Purebreds weigh from fifteen to TWEEN
ty pounds, and goslings from thirteen
to fifteen pounds apiece. II costs about
ten cents pound TO raise them.
Raising goslings is also Ideal for
farm women, as usually plenty Of pas
ture Is available and a plentiful sup
ply Of pasture means small feed bills.
The less feed TO buy the greater the
profit The outlay need not be large.
as the breeders can be sheltered In a
cheap building. While II is cheaper
to start with mongrels. they also bring
smaller returns. Even II the initial
outlay is greater II pays to start right !:
that is, with purebreds. However. n
II be impossible TO start with the pure.
bred, do the best you can.

RODENTS IN CHICKEN YARDS
There Should Be No Trouble In Get
ting Rid Of Them by uslno Sugar
Of Lead Poison.

Rats cause great losses IA mary
poultry yards, but there should be no
trouble in getting I'D Of saensa by poi
soning with a mixture OF two parts
cornmeal and one part sugar Of lead.
The hand should not come In contact
with the poison feed. and all other
feeds should be removed so the rats
cannot get them.
The poisoned feed may be kept away
from the chickens by putting It IN n
tray, nailed to the middle Of the bot
tom Of board AZ least a foot square
and six inches high. The box should
be closed on all sides except for u
number Of inch-and.a-half holes bored
through the sides near the bottom.
Burn or bury the dead rats so that
chickens cannot ent them. The de-
cayed flesh Of even Imprisoned rats
is likely to cause timber neck. as pto-
maine poisoning is called IN chickens.

FEED ALFALFA TO CHICKENS

use 10 Limited.

Chickens like alfalfa, but, best Of
all, like II when II is fresh and grow
ing. It is rich in protein and ash
and is readily appreciated even II fed
dried or cured. Tho greener 1t is
the better they like It. Finely
ground alfalfa meal is not so palata-
BILE as that freshly thrown down
from the NOW or taken from the CEN
ter of the stack. When steamed II
makes an excellent food but contains
a great amount OF dry matter which is
indigestible. Therefore its use Is liIn-
tied. One feeding per day is sufficient.
1t can never constitute anything more
than a relish for the birds. A good
grain ration and dry mash ration are
necessary In addition.
