Meat can be produced from poultry
more quickly than from any other
source. One of the necessities i'm
posed upon the United States by its
entrance into the world war is to pro-
duce more meat than it has ever pro-
duced before. This Is essential not
only to meet it's own greater needs be-
cause of being on a war basis but also
to save the countries with which it CO.
operates in the war from defeat
through lack Of food. In order to leave
available for the forces overseas as
large a proportion us possible of the
output Of cured and compact meats 1t
Is desirable that there be q decided
increase in both the home production
and the home consumption of white
meats such as poultry. To that end it
Is imperative that the productive stock
on general farms and in the back
yards Of the nation be rather largely
increased during the current year.
That is the national situation with re-
gard to poultry needs as described In
a recent publication from the office Of
the secretary of agriculture, 1.-THE Ag-
ricultural Situation for 1918, Part XII.
Poultry" d,

to prolong the period of profitable lay
ing. The eggs or hens kept in small
back yards are perfectly good for eat
ing, but of little value for Matching
even when fertile. Good chickens can
not be grown under such conditions.
The hens will usually lay well for
about year. Then they should be re-
placed with farm-grown pullets.
1t is known as a matter Of expert
ence and observation that town and
city people who have to figure costs
of food closely have not been accus-
toned to use eggs freely except in the
season of flush production and low
prices. A great many such families
can keep few hens in the back yard,
and even with low production get
many more eggs than they have been
accustomed to use.
The Idaho Springs siftings-news., 1918-05-10
Ducks for Meat and Eoos,

On general farms ducks can be
raised with success and at a profit.
AS a source Of income, however, they
do not appear to be as well adapted
for the average farm as chickens, but
under certain conditions they are good
money-makers. The demand for ducks
eggs Is more limited than for hens
eggs. and though ducks for table use
usually bring good price. their mar
ket Is also more limited and Is mostly
confined to large cities. For this rea-
son 1t is advisable to study the market
conditions before making any large in
vestment In ducks.
Intensive duck farming on large
scale has been more successful than
intensive chicken raising. Pekin
ducks, which are kept extensively by
commercial growers, are less subject
to disease than chickens, and artificial
methods of Matching and rearing have
been used very successfully with them.
Farmers as rule have rarely given
the necessary care to the feeding and
marketing Of their ducklings to Sc
cure any large share of the trade in
fancy green ducks. 1t is this trade
which attracts the commercial duck
raiser. A green duck is duckling
which is grown rapidly and marketed
when from eight TO twelve weeks old.
