Before marketing the young geese
the average farmer can feed advan-
tageously a fattening ration either
while the geese are on grass range or
confined to small yards, but it is
doubtful whether it would pay him
to eonfine them to individual or small
pens and make Il Speciality of fatten-
ing unless he has d 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
picked geese. while in other markets
no difference is made in the price of
scalded or dry-picl1ed geese. When
feathers are to be saved fowls should
not be seaided, but should be picked
dry before or after steaming. On most
farms where geese are raised the
feathers are plucked from the live
fowls at some time prior to molting.
About one and one-tenth pounds per
goose is the average yield Of feathers.
Feathers are worth from 30 cents to 81
Il pound. and the picking cost per goose
is about IL cents.

It Is Il good practice TO spray cattle

The spray used ON the cattle at the
pennsylvania State college is Il / per

dip. The spray application is made
with long nozzle to avoid injury to
the eyes of the one applying it. Modi-
tications of this method include the
use of a spiinkling can, brush. OF
dipping the animal in the solution.
For convenience, animals should be
driven into a stall or other enclosure
and sprayed a number at a time While
the entire body of the animal should
be sprayed, special care should be
given to application along the back
bone, the shoulders and directly back
of the horns.
A second application should be made
about 10 days after the first to destroy
insects which may have Matched from
the eggs during that time.

eggs may be Matched in incubators
and the gOsiings successfully raised in

The period of incubation of goose
eggs varies from 2S to 80 days. Mois-
ture should be added to the eggs aft
er the first week if 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 10 to 13 under
a goose. They may be tested about
the tenth day, and those which are in
fertile or contain dead germs should
be removed They hatch slowly. espe-

usually removed as soon as Matched
and kept in a warm place until the
process is over, when they are put

breeders who hatch with both geese
and hens give all the goslings to the
geese. Hens with goslings may be
confined to the coop and the goslings
allowed to, range. The latter, espe-
cially if 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

BIC YEAR SEEN

Greatest Effort Made in Further

on Account of War.
INCREASED COST OF HONEY
Product to Value of 100000 Was
Exported During Last Half of
Year-Food Administration Has
Been of Great Help.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture
Increase i'll the cost of honey, due TO
the big export demand created by the
war, makes it safe to predict that the
coming year will see the greatest eff
fort ever made in furthering beekeep-
ing. During the last half of the year
honey to the value of perhaps $1,000
600 was exported-about ten times the
valuation for any year previous to the
beginning of the war-indicating that
honey has ceased to be luxury in the
minds of the allied peoples.
Home Demand Increases.
Also, the home demand for honey
has increased. Figures are not avail
able, however, as much of the honey
of this country never reaches the
larger centers of trade. In addition
to these two demands, the heavy loss
of bees during the winter of 1917 and
a resultant decrease in production in
the eastern United States likewise
was responsible for increasing the
price of honey to the highest figure
recorded in many years.
In expediting shipments of honey
and supplies for Bookkeeping, and es-
pecially in granting permits to bee
keepers to buy sugar for feeding theil
bees where this was necessary, the
United States food administration has

TO START WITH GEESE

Buy breeding stock or mate
the fowls several months before
the breeding season, which is in /.
early spring. Breeders should
be at least two years old. They
are best when from three to
five years old. Females are
usually kept until they are
twelve to fourteen years old, or
! as long as they win lay well,
but ganders are not generally
kept after their eighth or ninth
year.
Begin feeding for egg prOduc-
ton during the latter part of
winter. Eggs are then available
for early Matching and the gos-
Iings will be ready to Craze as
soon as good grass pasture is
ready. The period of incuba-
ton varies from 2S to 80 days.
-Four to six eggs are set un-
der hen and 10 to 13 under a
goose. Goslings should not be
allowed to go into water, espe
cially if the weather is cold. un-
til they are several days old.
Hens with goslings should
brood them from seven to ten
days. when the goslings are able
to take care of themselves.
