provided with a pond to swim in.
They must always be supplied with
plenty of drinking water. They
should be kept in moderate condition
until about month before mating
time, when more liberal feeding is re-
quired. Food should then consist of
mill feeds. A good ration is as fol-
lows: Equal parts by weight Of bran
shorts and corn or barley meal, mixed
crumbly with skim milk. Feed twice
a day. If possible mix chopped roots,
grass or clover leaves with the mill
feed separately all they care to eat.
Give them plenty of range.
CARE AND FEEDING OF DUCK
LINGS
Ducklings should be cared for
similar to goslings. A very satisfac-
tory ration for them is as follows:
For three or four days feed one part
hard-boiled eggs mixed with three
parts dry bread. Mix shell and all.
Gradually change to equal parts, by
weight, of corn or barley meal, bran
and shorts, mixed crumbly with skim
milk and three times the bulk of
chopped green stuff as, onion tops,
lettuce, beets, or cabbage. Feed Of
ten and literally for about six weeks.
If they are to be fattened, feed in
small yards a ration of two parts
corn or barley meal, one part bran,
one part shorts mixed with skim
milk. At eight weeks of age they
should be ready for market. If in
tended for breeding purposes, turn
out on free range so as to keep them
in good growing condition.

If the Hired Man is in the Draft

IL Tic I1lTGu V4du Is Ill GuC OAd4G
The War Department has arranged
for the deferred calling to the colors
of farm hands actually engaged and
needed in crop production at this
time, but the local draft boards can
not give such deferment to farm
workers merely because of their per-
onal claims. They must have sup
porting affidavits from the farmers
employing such men. It has been
found that many farmers have neg
1ected to execute and file such aff1d-
avits, either through ignorance or
Indifference, and they must be urged
without delay to act. AS the new in
crement soon will be called, they
have little time left. Instant action
by farmers affected is vital to the in
terests of food production.
Following are the instructions sent
to the governors Of all states on
March II by Provost Marshal Gen.
Crowder:
1.-THE situation arising from the
scarcity of farm labor demands that
the call to the colors of men active
1y, completely, and assiduously en-
gagged in the planting and cultiva-
ton of crop, but who are in class
1 and within the new quota, should
be deferred until the end of the
new quota. Please instruct your 10
cal boards, therefore, that the Presi-
dent directs that in filling this emer-
gency call they shall pass the order
numbers of such men and defer their
call for the present. 1t must be
borne in mind that this step is taken
solely in the need of the nation and
not for the benefit of any individual.
Therefore, while boards should con-
slider it a grave duty to exercise this
power and conserve and augment the
agricultural production, they should
observe closely the conduct of those
deferred, and, Immediately upon be-
coming convinced that any person so
deferred is not giving his entire time
and earnest attention to agricultural
duty or that he is tri1ing with the
deferment thus granted him by the
board, should forthwith call him to
the colors. ALI citizens should assist
in making this expedient effective
and in bringing to the attention of
the boards cases meriting deferment,
as well as cases in which deferment
is being abused"
The local draft boards, being judi
cial bodies, can not defer the call Of
such men, however, unless the farm
ers employing them comply with the
law and support their claims for de-
ferred calling with afadavits. 1t is
