eggs varies from twenty-eight to thirty
days. Moisture should be added to the
leggs after the first week II set under
hens or In incubators; this is usually
done by sprinkling the eggs or the nest
with warm water. Four to six eggs are
set under hen and ten to thirteen un.
der goose. They may be tested about
the tenth day, and those which are In
fertile or contain dead gerlhs should
be removed. They hatch slowly, espe-
cially under hens, and the goslihgs are
usually removed as soon as Matched
and kept In warm place Until the
process Is over, when they are put
back under the hen or goose. Some
breeders who hatch with both geese
and hens give all the goslings to the
geese. Hens with goslings may be con-
fined to the coop and the goslings al.
lowed to range. The latter, especially
II the weather is cold, are not usually
allowed to go into water until they
are several days old. In mild weather
the hens are allowed to brood the Cos
lings for from seven to ten days, when
she latter are able to take care of them
selves. Good sized growing coops, with
board floors, should be provided for the
goslings, and they must be protected
from their enemies and given some at
tentiOn when on range.
Feeding the Geese and 0osIings.
Geese are generally raised where
they have a good grass range or pas
ture, as they are good grazers, and ex.
cept during the winter months usually
pick up most OF their living. The pas.
ture may be supplemented with light
feeds of the common or home grown
grains or wet mash daily, the neces-
sity and quantity Of this feed depend.
ing on the pasture. Goslings do not
need feed until they are twenty-four
to thirty-six hours old, when they
should be fed any Of the mashes
recommended for chickens or duck.
lings.
Preparation For Market.
Before marketing the young geese the
average farmer can feed advantageous
ly fattening ration either while the
geese are on grass range or confined
to small yards, but 1t Is doubtful
whether 1t would pay him to confine
them to individual or small pens and
make a speciality Of fattening unless
he has a special market or retail trade
for well fattened stock.
Geese are usually killed and picked
in the same manner as other kinds Of
poultry. Some markets prefer dry pick
ed geese, while in other markets no diff
ference Is made in the price Of scalded
or dry picked geese. When feathers
are to be saved fowls should not be
scalded, but should be picked dry be-
fore or after steaming. On most farms
where geese are raised the feathers
are plucked from the live fowls at
some time prior to melting. About one
and one-tenth pounds per goose is the
average yield Of feathers. Feathers
are worth from 30 cents to 81 a pound.
and the picking cost per goose is about
II cents.
Breeds.
Crosses of the varieties of geese,
especially Of the Toulouse and Embden,
are occasionally made, but without any
apparent gain. The Toulouse, Embden,

Chinese and African are easily the
most popular breeds Of geese in this
country, the first two greatly leading
the other breeds. All economic breeds
of geese are kept primarily for the pro-
duction Of flesh and feathers, and al
though their eggs are occasionally used
for culinary purposes on the farm
there is no demand for them for food
purposes in the markets.
The Egyptian goose is small, bright
ly cOlored goose kept for ornamental
purposes and rarely seen in this coun-
try. 1t resembles the wild goose in
shape and weighs two pounds less in
each class.

good grass range Is available. A body
Of water where they can swim is con-
sidered essential during the breeding
season and is a good feature during the
rest Of the year. The market for geese
Is not so general as for chickens. This
should be considered In undertaking
the raising Of geese. The demand and
the price paid for geese are usually
good In sections where goose fattening
Is conducted on a large scale. Many
geese are kept In the south for the pro-
duction of feathers rather than for
their flesh, but the demand for their
feathers is not so good as it has been.
making the business less profitable
Wherever possible, the geese on farm
should have free range. Many farmers
In the south keep them to kill the weeds
In the cotton fields.
Houses.
Except In winter or during stormy
weather, when some protection should
be provided, mature geese do not
usually need house. Some kind Of
shelter, such as shed open on the
south side, a poultry house or a barn,
is usually provided by breeders In the
north and is used by many in the south.
Coops, barrels or some other dry shell
ter should be provided for young gos-
lings. The goose houses should be kept
clean and plenty of clean straw provid-
ed for the floor.
Selecting and Mating.
Geese, like other kinds of poultry,
should be selected for size, prolifcacy
and vitality. They should be mated
several months prior to the breeding
season to obtain the best results.
Therefore breeding stock should be
bought in the fall. Goose matings are
not changed from year to year unless
the results are unsatisfactory. A gan
der may be mated with from one to
four geese, but pair or trio matings
usually give the best results. The wild
gander usually mates with only one
goose. When mated, geese are allow
ed to run In focks. From four to
twenty-fiv geese may be kept on ali
acre Of land, and under most condi-
tions ten is fair average.
Incubation.
Geese are fed a ration to produce
eggs during the latter part Of the win
ter or so that the goslings will be
Matched by the time there is good grass
pasture. They are allowed to make
nests on the floor of the house, or large
boxes, barrels or shelters are provided
for that purpose. The eggs should be
collected daily and kept in cool place
where the contents will not evaporate
too freely. If kept for some time they
may be stored I'm loose bran. The first
eggs are usually set under hens, while
the last ones which the goose lays may
be Matched either under hens or under
The goose IL she Is broody. If the eggs
are not removed from the nest in which
the goose is laying she will usually
stop laying sooner than IL they are TAX
en- away. Some breeders prefer ia
raise all the goslings under hens, as
geese sometimes become difficult to
manage when allowed to hatch and
rear their young Hens used for hatch
Ing goose eggs must be busted with in
sect powder and have good attention,
as in the case of geese the period Of in
