If the goose of the fable was able
to lay golden egg, there is no rea-
son why her progeny of the present
era con not repeat this miracle in a
more concrete form. Goose meat Is
nutritious and palatable and not
greasy when properly cooked, and
an extension OF goose raising in the
regions of cheap land where pastur-
age is abundant is a suggested cource
OF cheaper meat.
Geese are raised chiefly IN the
South and Middle West, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Missouri, and Arkansas
being the chief supply sources. Dur
ing the decade ending in 1910, the
total number of geese declined e22
per cent, largely because of the lack
of cheap pastures and the limited de-
mand for goose feathers and goose
flesh. Thousands of acres of native
grass throughout the South and some
parts of the Middles West are quail
fled for geese raising operations and
should, if possible, add this branch
of poultrying to their activities. This
is the opinion of United States De-
partment of Agriculture specialists.
The Toulouse, Emblem, Chinese,
and African are the most popular
American breeds of geese, the first
two greatly leading the Others Oc-
casionally the eggs are used for
cooking, but generally geese are
kept only for meat and feather pro-
duction. Practically all the geese in
this country are raised in small flocks
on general farms, some men making
q speciality of collecting large num-
bers of geese and fattening them for
a few weeks before they are killed.
AS grass makes up the bulk of feed
for geese, it is doubtful whether it
pays to raise them unless good grass
range is available during the summer.
A pool of water for bathing and re-
irrational purposes is also desirable
feature.
The market for geese is not so gen.
cral as for chickens. This point
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 Il large

If the chickens must be confined on
account of bad weather, provide a
good straw litter il which their
grain feed may be scattered. This will
give them exercise and keep them in
terested and healthy. When chick
ems that have been accustomed to
free range are closely confined, this
frequently checks their development
for the time being unless they are
made contented in their new quarters.

GEESE ARE RUGGED AND
HARDY

Geese are hardy birds and need
shelter only in winter or stormy
weather. An open shed or an old barn
usually is satisfactory for this pur
pose From 4 to 25 geese may be
kept on an acre OF land, although UNI
der most conditions 10 is a fair av-
erage. Wherever possible the geese
should have free range during the
grass season. Southern plantation
owners keep geese to kill the weeds
in the cotton fields.
Geese are fed a ration to produce
eggs during the latter part of the
winter so that the goslings will be
Matched by the time there is good
grass pasture. The eggs may be
matched by either hens or geese. Some
breeders prefer to raise all the Cos
lings under hens, as geese sometimes
become difficult to manage when al
lowed to hatch and rear their young.
The period of incubation of goose
eggs varies from % to 30 days.
Goslings do not need feel until they
are "a or So hours old, when they
should be fed one of the mashes re-
commended for chickens or goslings,

NO ONE KNOWS
HOW | SUFFERED"
Everybody Is Talking About My
Improvement" Says Mrs. Cox


4 Nobody will ever know how | suf-
fered before l got relief by taking
Tanlac, because / just can't describe
it," said Mrs. Irma T. Cox, who lives
at S161a Thurman street, Portland,
Ore, while talking to Tanlac rep
resentative the other day.
/ Il had suffered from indigestion
and stomach trouble for about seven
years. continued Mrs. Cox, land my
condition had finally gotten so bad
that for five or six weeks before /
commenced taking Tanlac | was not
able to do any part of my housework.
l didn't have any appetite at all, and
just had to force myself to eat enough
to keep me going, and just few bites
of anything to eat would cause gas to
form and give me shortness of breath.
Often during the night | would have
to sit up in bed and gasp for breath.
There were times when my feet and
ankles would swell so bad that could
not get nv shoes on. | also suffered
from raging sick headaches that
woud almost drive me wild. Finally,
my nerves got in terrible condition,
and it was out of the question for me
to get good nights sleep, took
many different kinds of medicine, but
my condition seemed to get worse all
the time.
II finally decided to give Tanlac a
trial, and it certainly proved a God
send to me. l began to improve soon
after commenced taking this medi-
cine, and l have been getting better
ever since. | can eat anything l want
and as much as | want, and | never
suffer the least bit afterwards. l am
never bothered with shortness of
breath, and all that swelling in my
feet and ankles is gone. | am COM
pletey rid CT those terribel headaches,
too, and that alone would make me
say that Tanlac is the best medicine
IN the world. I am so we'll and strong
now that l do all my housework with
out the least trouble. Everybody who
knows me is talking about my won
derful improvement, and l always take
pleasure in telling them that l owe it
all to Tanlac."
