Raise More Turkeys, Geese and Ducks

Raise More Turkeys, Geese and Ducks
Turkeys, geese and ducks should
be more generally raised, especially
in northern Minnesota. They furn-
ish the cheapest meat produced, con-
sidering labor and feed, and general
ly sell for high price.
Turkeys greatly aid in combating
insect pests, as grasshoppers and
army worms, and also in conserving
the scattered grains of the fields.
The best breeds of turkeys for the
farm are Mammoth Bronze, Bour-
bon Red and White Holland. AS
the Bronze the the heaviest, they
are the most popular with turkey
raisers. A young tom with three or
four early-hatched, young hens
makes a good breeding pen for the
beginner.
Geese will help get the maximum
returns from low, marshy lands.
They feed on many forms of vegeta-
ton not used by other stock. Their
fat is very valuable. The two lead
ing breeds are Toulouse and Embden.
Young Toulouse geese have been
made to average % pounds each by
December 20. In mating, one gander
with three or four geese gives best
results. They do not mature until
about three years old, but will breed
when two years old. The same
breeders may be kept for eight or
ten years.
Ducks grow the most rapidly Of all
farm poultry, and furnish a desire
able variety in the family food sup
ply. The most profitable market
ducks are White Pekin and Rouen,
or "Green Heads" as they are COM
monty called. They will weigh from
five to six pounds in ten weeks if
we'll fed. One drake is mated with
about five mature ducks for best sue
cess.
Breeding stock of turkeys, geese
and ducks should be obtained during
November and December for best re-
suits. At this time choice birds may
be bought before being put on the
market.
For list of breeders, free bulletins
on care, management and housing,
and instructions in preparing and
cooking for home use, call on your
county agent, Or address poultry ex-
tension division, University Farm,
st. Paul.

1t is gratifying that in the face of
this situation the farm bureau move
ment has demonstrated 1t can assist
in meeting the big problems of the
farmer in big way. The sum total
of the work of the year, when told,
will be splendid tribute to the de-
votion of all who have been allied
with the movement.
Let us now prepare for greater
achievements in 1919.
Respectfully submitted,

Director of Agricultural Extension
and Federal Food Administration for

Protect Machinery

The cost of machinery and imple-
ments is constantly increasing. Pre-
pare now to protect implements and
machinery from exposure during the
coming winter. AS far as possible
all implements should be placed I'M
der a dry shed. Woodwork should
be painted and all exposed iron and
steel parts should be either painted
or covered with grease or oil to pre-
vent rusting.

away from these pests and by abol-
fishing litter and refuse, deny them
shelter. Apart from its disease bear
ing function (the rat is, by means Of
its feas, carrier of bubonic plague
and is possibly also a factor in the
spread Of infantile paralysis), it is
well to remember that in the United
States alone, it requires the labor Of
100000 men annually to provide for
the waste of our food resources, thru
the agency of this filthy pest.
The Division of Entomology and
Economic Zoology of the Agricul-
tural College will be glad to corre-
spond with communities or individ-
uals who desire help in this line,
and circulars Of information will be
mailed to all citizens requesting
them. Inquiries and requests for

The wisdom of the State Highway
Commission in rejecting the first pro-
possals for constructing and improving
the highways of this State in accord
ance with the plans prepared by the
commission, pertinently says The Will
mington Every Evening, "was DEM
onstrated at Dover, Wednesday, when
the commission opened the new bids
asked for. The result was offers that
in the aggregate will amount to con-
siderably less than the total of the
first proposals. That these are most
undesirable times for entering upon
enterprises of this character will be
admitted. Materials are at a high
cost, and so is labor. More than that
the scarcity of labor, due to the enor-
nous industrial activity consequent
upon the war, is an element that adds
greatly to the cost of ali constructive
undertakings. 1t is not to be ex-
pected, therefore, that a project like
the inauguration of system of good
highways for Delaware at this time
can be made and carried to conclusion
at anything like the figures which
would have prevailed a decade ago,
or less.
"ln deciding upon the policy of re-
jecting the first bids and asking for
Others. the State Highway Commits
sion acted wisely. There is no doubt,
despite the insistent demand for i'm
proved highways in Delaware, it would
not have been practical business to
have plunged into the enterprise with
a disregard of the cost. The better
plan of waiting and endeavoring to
cut down the expense appealed to all
who gave careful consideration to the
subject, Notwithstanding the discom-
fort that would have resulted from
indefinitely postponing the impera-
lively demanded improvements. But
by its temporary delay the commits
sion has effected considerable say ing
in cost and Monday awarded the con-
tracts as will be shown on our first
page.
cit is gratifying to realize that a
last practical plan of State Highway
improvement has been entered upon.
1t is work that cannot be ompleteC
in a short time. 1t will require
months, even years. But it has beer
started, in a practical and efficien
manner, although under adverse con
ditions that were not thought of few
years ago. 1t is a matter Of regre
that the State did not take up this i'm
portant subject much sooner, instea
of the people allowing themselves t
be hypnotized and led astray by
"will-o'- -the-wisp' that at first SCENE
like a brilliant realization of fon
hopes for a great State highway, but
after years of wasted time, resulte
in very little.
"But now the decisive steps hav
been taken, and from this time th
efforts of the State Highway Commits
sion will he directed towards the col
summation of a general plan of in
provement that will result, as soon 1
possible, in good highway from OF
end of the State to the other, wit
connections that will in time brir
all sections of the State in close cor
munication with each other by mea
of easily traversed highways. 1t
the opening of new era. May i
progress be most satisfactory.

that they can tell when appeals of this character be-
