Business Meeting.

On Tuesday night, May 2, the A
goga Glass of the Baptist Sunday
School, being assembled in it's regular
monthly business me ing, voted in
favor of organizing a baseball team
in the Baptist Sunday School and to
Join the Sunday School League of
the city. In accordance with the
plans, Mr.. Dixon Williams, man ex-
perienced in baseball, was chosen
manager and Mr. Carey Brummel
captain. They were assured of the
loyal support of the Agoga Class and
we feel confident they will receive
the same support from the entire
school.
Another important feature Of the
meeting was the unanimous vote in
favor of joining the State organiZa-
tion and in turn receiving a certifi-
cate of excellence. The class has
net all the requirements end is eli
gible to the State organization. Great
benefit will be derived from this
move as in thief uture our class will
be notified of the progress of the 9TH
er State classes.
The next business of Importance
was he initiating into the class Of
Mr.. J. H. Gardner and he was heart
lily welcomed by all present. The
miscellaneous business was soon COM
pleted and the lass adjourned to en-
Joy q pleasant social hour. Mrs.
Carlton and Mrs. Howse entertained
with duet and Mrs. Carlton played
the piano while the class songs were
sung Refreshments consisting of
ice cream, cake, and fruit we're serv-
ed by committee from the class.
All enjoyed the meeting.
Regardless of the weather, which
was very inclement, almost the en-
tire membership of the class was
present and entered into the spirit
of the meeting with much enthusi-
asm. These meetings are not only
the business part of the organization
but they are a medium through
which feeling of fellowship is culti-
waited among the members of the
class. We invite all to enjoy these
privileges. You can do so by becom-
ing a member of the class. We in
vite you. REPORTER.

Profit in Ducks.

The breeding and marketing O
ducks in large way is confined tt
Massachusetts, New York and Penn
sylvania. These products are con
sumed in the Eastern States. There
is no reason why ducks should mo-
be raised on more Southern farms a!
this class of fowls could be made tt
pay good profit.
All breeds of ducks require the
same treatment. Young ducks are
very hard and are not troubled with
any of the many diseases that affiict
young chickens. Ducklings are vo-
racious eaters, but they should not
be fed too much, until week old
After this time their feed supply
should be governed by the quantity
they will eat.
From the time the ducklings are
Matched they should be fed from four
to five times day and a good COM
mercial laying mash and some sand
should be mixed in every feed that
is mixed for the ducklings. The mash
should be dampened with water into
a .crumbly mass. Mix the feed fresh
every day; feed in troughs, giving at
each feeding time as much as will be
eaten clean before the ducklings stop
eating and no more. A little observa-
ton will show how much to feed.
Where a small number of ducks
are raised it is best to use hens for
Matching. Duck eggs hatch in %
days, but the eggs frequently pip in
26 days. 1t is much safer to help a
duck out of the shell than it is a
chicken, but this should not be at
tempted until it is found that the
duckling cannot free itself. Duck
eggs hatch in incubators fully as we'll
as hen eggs. Once duckling is out
of the shell it is quite safe to count
on raising it to market age.
Ducks should have water where
they can get it to drink at any time,
but it is not necessary that they
have water to swim in, but the drink
ing vessel should be deep enough so
that the ducks can submerge the
head. in order to wash out their nos
trils and crops.
Ducks are not bothered with lice
or mites and are free from such dis
eases as roup, catarrh and diphtheria.
Ducks are naturally very healthy and
if they are given good house where
they can sleep on dry floor and have
a clean run, they are not likely to
suffer from any disease.
Ducks are profitable on the farm
rs they are good layers, make weight
