killing house. The pens in the houses.
the outside yards, and the arrange.
ment of the buildings should be
planned 50 that the ducks may be cas-.
lily driven from house to house as de-
sired. The feed room or house should
be centrally located.
Convenient watering arrangements
are essential where large numbers Of
ducks are kept, as they require a large
amount of drinking water, say poultry
specialists of the United States De.
partment of Agriculture. While ducks
may be kept successfully under very
intensive conditions, II Is advisable to
allow considerable yard space. Double
yards, which may be rotated and
planted to qu~ick-grOwing crops, such
as oats, wheat and rye, are good for
intensive duck farms.
It is advisable to have n pond or
stream for the breeding ducks, as they
usually give better fertility under
these conditions. although on some
successful duck farms the ducks are
always kept on dry land. The young
green ducks on some farms which have
a pond are not allowed TO go into the
water except TO battle and clean their
feathers just before marketing. Other
growers. however. allow the green
ducks free arCpSS IN DOu1S or StrnamS
until they are marketed.

CHEAP COOP FOR BACK YARD
inexpensive House Will Prove En-
tireIy Satisfactory Where Small
Flock Is Kept.

1t is not necessary to spend much
money for housing II you are going to
keep a small flock of hens in your
back yard. Indeed, It is unwise, say
poultry specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
One or two piano cases or a large
packing box may often he made into
an acceptable home. But whatever
you build should he made dry and
free from drafts, and have good venti-
latiOn. The United States Department
Of Agriculture has numerous bulletins
giving directions for this kind of con-
struction, and any of these are avail
able for the asking. or for n very few
cents where a charge is necessary. A
card to the division Of publications.

say specialists of the United States
Department Of Agriculture. It Is not

In some instances eggs preserved by
this method have tasted slightly of
lime, although at other times lime

To preserve with lime, dissolve two
pounds of unslaked lime in a small
quantity Of water. and dilute with
five gallons Of water that has previ.

the mixture to stand until the lime

Car Owners want more rubber on the tread where the wear is
hardest; more gum between cord plies to perfect a resilient and
powerful carcass. And they want a scientifically constructed Non
Skid tread with all angles and contacts to resist skidding and give
MI traction. Firestone Cord Tires have met these demands Of
the car owners.

Tariff Association, who Is in wash

sion of his organization. Kirby pre-
diets victory Tor the protection
forces with a resultant abolition of
the traditional tree trade policies of
the South.
The action of the Democratic
caucus" he says, in opposing relief
through tariff Legislation
was unwise politically and unsound
economically. There is a silent and
tremendous conflict now going on
the South between the
political and economic Influences on
national tariff policies which will
free traders.

question. The South is in distress
and our producers are suffering

The misfortunes of war-stricken
Europe are being visited upon Us
through channels of unrestricted
commercial intercourse.
Under these circumstances II Is
