NEW YORK. July 24.-With the

the New York Yankees. reached out
last night and grabbed Joe Dugan

The process by which Dugan and
Smith stepped out Of the scrub clothes

Fewster. Elmer Miller and a pitcher

that the Yanks, handed over 100000

Bitter criticism over the deal has
arisen throughout the American
League over the trade and it is justi-
fed. No one can blame the YANKEES
for spending money to strengthen
their faltering club, but it looks pc

GEESE QUITE EASILY RAISED
Kept Generally in Small Fiocks on
Farms and Purchased by Expert
enced Fatteners,

(Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
There is demand usually for young
geese from June to January, although
most of them are sold around Thanks
giving and Christmas. Ten-weeks- old
goslings of the largest breeds of pure
bred geese weigh up TO ten pounds
when forced for rapid growth and
sometimes are profitably marketed at
that age as green geese. Large cities
containing a foreign population offer
the best markets for geese.
Geese usually are killed and picked
the same as other kinds of poultry, but
are much more difficult to pick than
chickens. Generally the veins in the
back OF the mouth are severed with a
long-bladed knife, followed with a
: blow on the back of the head with a
short club. The wings are picked to
the tlrst joint, and the feathers are re-
moved from the neck half way to the
head, pulling with the feathers and not
back toward the head. The soft pin
feathers and fine down may be re-
moved partly by rubbing the body with
moistened hands or by shaving the
skin.
The dry picking of geese is rather
difficult. The most common practice is
TO scald or steam the goose feathers
before picking. This can be done over
wash boiler three-fourths full of
boiling water, laying the dead goose
on a burlap sack stretched tightly over
the boiler, and steaming first the
breast, then the back, and then each
side. The whole process of steaming
will not take more than two or three
minutes, and the goose must be kept
moving to prevent scalding the flesh
The goose is steamed until the feath-
ers can be pulled out easily, and the
head usually is laid under the breast
to keep the breast from scalding. After
picking, the bird is singed over an al
cohol flame, the alcohol usually being
burned In shallow tin plates.
Another method for removing the
down Is to sprinkle powdered rosin
over the body of the goose and dip it
into hot water, which melts the rosin
SO that 1t and the down can be rubbed
off easily, leaving the body clean.
Geese may also be steamed by>scalding
slightly and wrapping the body tightly
for five minutes or longer in burlap or
cloth to allow the steam to work thor
oughly through the feathers. Some
markets prefer dry-picked geese, while
in other markets no difference is made
in scalded or dry picked.
Geese are raised successfully in all
parts of the United States, but are
most abundant in the South and the
Middle West Slightly more than one
tenth of the farms in the United States
reported geese in the census of 1910.
The Winslow mail., 1922-02-03
MARKET UNDESIRABLE STOCK
Gull Out Fowls Not Wanted
for Winter.

If you have not already done so it
will be well to Gull out and sell off
such stock as you do not intend TO win
ter. In fact. it is generally desirable
to have September and October Gull
ings for the purpose of marketing
such old and young stock as it will
not pay to carry through the winter
season.

Mature GeeSe ana rarity GroWn Cos
lings VIII Get Their Living From a
Good Pasture So Long as the Grass
Remains Green.
Practically all there are in this coun-
try are in small fiocks. and few. if any
farms are devoted entirely to their
raising. Fattening, however, is con
Quoted as a special business on a large
scale in the producing sections, in
which case the geese are collected
from the general farms, usually over
large area, and fattened for few
weeks before they are killed.
On farms where there is plenty of
grass or pasture land geese can be
raised successfully in small flocks. A
natural supply of water is, of course,
essential. The birds are very hardy,
both young and old, and rarely are af-
fected by any disease or insect pest.
Grass forms the bulk of the feed, and
it is doubtful whether it pays to raise
them unless it is available. They are
the closest known grazers. Both ma
ture geese and partly grown goslings
will get their entire living from a good
pasture so long as the grass remains
green. A body of water where they
can swim is considered essential dur
ing the breeding season, and is a good
feature the rest of the year.

K. Of P. Holds Big Meeting.

The Twenty First District of the
Knighs of Pythias held their semi

dresses.
DR.. L. M. Reeves and Mrs. J. FL

The De Soto Knights of Pythian
band came over from De Soto anc
their music added very much to the
interest in the meeting.
The night session was held in the
the opera house, which was opened
to the public. Hon. B. Fl. Marbury
made forcible address on Pythian'
ism, after which Bonnie Terre Lodge
put on drama entitled 1.-THE Friend
