Woman Who Has Farm of 200 Fat Ducks
eGives Secrets of Successful Raising
BY NEA Service

BY NEA Service
NER RAY BUTTERBAUGH, Of
lVI near North Manchester, Ind.
has a hobby, and her hobby is
raising fat ducks for market.
81 started with only three duck
hens and a drake" said Mrs. Butter.
baugh. 1.-THE first year these ducks
laid more than 200 eggs and I placed
n of the eggs under hens for hatch
ing Sixty-nine ducks were Matched
from these eggs and I raised them
all except two
THE 81 ducks were ready for
market in eight weeks, and they
weighed four and one-half to five
pounds each. They averaged $1.14
each This year I have about 200
and they will be ready for market
the last part of June
= Finds Ducks Easier
II find that ducks are more easily
Matched and raised than chickens. A
large percentage of the eggs will
hatch and if you give them the right
rare YOU can raise practically all Of
the ducklings.
"Of course you must have a build
ing that win protect them from rats
while they are Young but as they
grow Older they need very little
housing
zone must have d range for ducks
and plenty OF shade and fresh wa.

there be water for them to swim i'll,
but it is very nice when you have it

ana raise them in broader houses
just as you would ralse chickens
They do not require as even "a neal
as chickens and we find that it
harms them very little to become
chilled.
I'VE start the young ducklings by
feeding them stale bread mixed in
either sour or sweet milk. When
they are two weeks old we start

feeding a mash of equal parts of
ground oats and ground corn mixed
in milk.
"When we don't have oats and
corr here on the farm, we buy bran
and shorts and mix with the milk
to feed them.
Heavy Eaters
Ducks eat more than chickens.
and it is very necessary that you
use feed that can be raised on the
farm or feed that you can buy
economically.
II find one disadvantage in a wo-
man raising ducks is that they con-
sumo a large quantity of feed, and
it is heavy work. 1t is just like
carrying feed out to a drove of hogs.
I'VE use wooden troughs. These
troughs must be near the water, for

IF you do not have a stream, be
sure that your water fountain is
deep enough to allow the duck to

that some folks have bad luck with
ducks because they do not let the

can find grass and gravel.

hatch about the first of May; then
they are ready for market the last

"Judas" Sheep Lures 100000
OF Own Kind to Death

OILY has no conscience. Per
IL haps that's well for him. He's
a paid and professional Judas
Betrayal's his stock in trade
That's how he makes his living
leading members of his species to
death.
OF course Billy's not human. He's
only a goat-a siren goat at that.
And when he sings, If you can call
Bfly's bleat a song, then that's the
music which some ESQ, 900 trusting
sheep have followed to the butchers
knives in the past five years.
Without Billy and five others of
his kind Chicago packers would be
quite at a loss.
Sheep sent in for slaughter must
be gotten, in humane manner, from
the pens to the place where they are
killed.
Can't Be Frightened
To drive or brighten them up the
Iunways would not be permitted
Under the law. Likewise such prac-
tice would race the blood and make
the meat unfit.
And so with all these things to
cope with the packers hired Billy.
They feed him well and he doesn't
have to work very hard. Matter of
fact he works only a little while in
the morning. Just long enough to
lead a trusting flock fresh from train
and recent pasture to the quick
knives that end it all.
p Ions fierce bleat is Billy's cue.
Tie sheep answer that call. Here

where they were grazing only last

The Gate of Death
Then a gate opens. 1t is as though
their cries for rescue had at last
been heard.
Everything is over in a few min
utes-Just long enough for Billy to
clear the slaughter scene and start

Billy jumps back t safety. It's
only a routine task to Billy.
Perhaps-h he would hang his head q
bit if he could or wanted to. But as
we said before, Billy has nc con-
science.
Nature didn't provide him with
one. He's waiting now to commit
his crime afresh tomorrow.
Yes, Billy is a Judas.

Hold Gentleman
Rallies in Theft
OF $1,000 in JeWelry

New York, Dec. 15.-(P)-A man
who claims to be a professional tea
faster but who is accused by police Of
having attempted to rob Queen
Marie of royal Rumanian jewels was
arrested here today for the robbery of
nearly $4,000 in jewels from Samuel
rockingham.
The man gave his name as John
Anderson and his age as ~. Apparent
ly he is well educated, and police de-
scribe him as a typical gentleman
burglar" of the Rallies type. He was
arrested as he was leaving the area
way OF an uptown building in the
fashionable section of the East Side,
where rockingham has an apart
ment on the ground floor.
Police list $500 bracelet set with
SO diamonds, diamond ring, a gold
cigarette case, gold match case and
gold bar pin as having been recover
ed from him. They claim he has a
police record in England as we'll as in
this country.
Detectives who arrested him de-
clare that when Queen Marie was
visiting the United States Anderson
attempted to enter the home of a
family she visited, for the purpose OF
stealing the royal jewels, but was
prevented by the heavy guard as
signed to her protection.
Police claim that a man of Alder
sons appearance recently followed a
member of the family of John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., into a Fifth avenue
restaurant, apparently lured by a
display Of gems, but got nothing.
