DEMAND FOR GEESE GROWING;
TAKING PLACE OF TURKEYS
Expert Tells How Best Re-
suits Are Secured With
This Bird.
fRY PROF. JAMES 3. NORMAN.
Former Expert for the United States
Department Of Agriculture.)

There is growing demand for
the goose as a table bird. Its
flesh is sweet and tender. When
crate fattcned the liver Of a goose
is considered a great delicacy.
Goose fat is used for various pur-
poses. The feathers are valuable
as a. by product The young are
not hard 10 raise. Some claim
keys on the farm.

Fattening Geese for Market.

When geese are about si& months old
they are ready for fa,tcning. They
should first be put in an outside il
closure and fed on boiled corn for three
or four days. The corn is boiled about
half an hour, or until IT is soft to the
fingers when squeezed. The geese must
be accustomed to confinement gr1du-
ally and prepared for their regular
diet during tn" fatt"ning process.
When ready for fnttrnin&. tn" geese
ar" fed on boll"d corn -four times every
"A hours by a examining machine. This
process is carried on regularly for
about four weeks, when they are ready
for killing. II the examining process
is not prIrtiCcd the geese should be
fed for u week or two longer.
The effect OF TINS forced feeding is to
cauS" the liver to grow to an abnormal
size, while tn" flesh becomes soft, ten
der and white, The forced growth of
the liver by TINS plan creates a better
flavor and renders it much more ten
der than the liver taken from a goose
which has not been specially fed. White
geese ar" preferred because they fat

be placed In an open shed or poultry
house Dry hay is a good nesting ma =
terial.
If hens are used for hatchiRg, not
more than four eggs should be set in
the early part of the season. A large
size hen will cover five or six eggs sue
cessfully in warm weather. The best
hens for Matching goose eggs are tho
heavier breeds. like Plymouth Rock'
and Wyandottes. They should b" set il

Where a turkey or goose is use 70
Matching, either bird will cover l. o
10 eggs. II the nest is accessible, tn
Eander will sometimes assist in incu

the goose should be disturbed as littl
as possible. She should have plenty O
food, water and green stuff near by.
AS the time for Matching approa ches
when hens or turkeys are used. tn
eggs should be sprinkled daily witt
