dustry. Ducks are less trouble than
chickens and do not consume nearly
as much food as some seem to think.
They are subject to few diseases and
are exceedingly hardy at all ages.
Yoti do not have any mites, lice, cold
cr roupe to fight.
The impression with the masses of
people is that to raise ducks success
fully one must have a large water
course or pond near for them to swim
in. This is a mistaken idea, ducks can
be raised with only water to drink
and a great many people are doing it.
I have received a number of re
quests from readers of The News to
give through its columns scientific
methods for managing and feeding
ducks. I do not feel competent to of
fer what would be termed "scientific
met’i^^ds” for handling them but rather
prefer to give in plain, simple lan
guage what has been my experience
in raising them. 1 have been breeding
ducks for the past ten years and have
tried many experiments.
The method I have found most satis
factory in handling ducklings either
for market or fancy purposes, is to
keep everything clean about their
quarters and feed a well balanced ra
tion in the form of a mash.
To look after them and keep their
quarter.^ clean requires considerable
labor but to succeed in anything one
must be willing to work. Young ducks
growing is that they allow their quar
ters to become filthy and damp. Duck
lings positively cannot thrive under
such conditions. The following mash
will develop them more rapidly than
anything I have tried: Two measures
bran shorts, one of corn meal and
one of green stuff. Add a little coarse
stand to this, moisten and feed in
troughs. Feed this three times a day
adding a liberal amount of beef scraps
to the mash for one feed.
This same ration is exceptionally
fine for laying ducks.
Never feed ducks -without seeing
that they Jiave plenty of drinking w'a-
ter near their feed trough, as they will
take a drink with almost every mouth-
full of food. Ti l.s also a good idea
to place a shallow box or trough of
coarse sand or grit near the drinking
vessel.
If farmers knew of the excellent
qualities of Indian Runner Ducks, none
w^ould be without them.
They are the heaviest egg produc
er’s of the duck family and a number
of egg laying contests they have run
out ahead of hens. They consun;^
very little food and when allowed an
open range they will pick up nearly
their entire livins:. \Vhen you take
the feed bill and their laying into con
sideration they are far aliead of ail
other breeds.
The Indian Runner is not only a
breed that thrives w’ell on unlimited

Why You Should Join the American
Poultry Association
Because 'ou not only owe it to
the association, but to yourself.
Because originally a hen laid 30
eggs annually; now some lay 200.
The A. P. A. is at least indirectly re
sponsible.
Because it is poultry culture’s
mouthpiece. To it we must look for
redress from all our wrongs. From
it we must expect those things that
promote our well being.
Because organization of forces is
tb?f oundation of succes-s in social,
civic or business life.
Because you w’ant to carry your
end of the pole. Those behind the
A. P. A, are no more interested than
yon should be—get no more out of
it than .vou can.
Because it is the only organization
that can stamp out the things that
ought not to exist and “boost” the
things that ought.
B«cau&e |5 of your $10 comes back
to 3'our branch, and will gradually
build up a fund that will enable your
state branch to really do something
for poultry culture.

fowls on farms and produce their
feed on the farm. It is all too com
mon ap ractice to depend almost en
tirely on corn, simpl\ because it is
handy to fe^d, and nearly all farm
ers grow this staple crop. Corn is a
ver\- satisfactory grain for a part
of the ration, but will not answer
the purpose as- an exclusive diet.
It is much better to grow' a variety
of stain .ind ^rass seeds and some
vegetables than to depend on corn
alone. '1 here is a good variety
available to the farmers of the South
Atlantic states and the output of
ey.gs could easily be doubled from
November to March, the season of
high prices, if farmers generally
would grow sothe green crop for
their fowis to run on during the
mild open winter season, and grow
a variety of grain and seeds for
them. It is really astonishing how
much green food can be grown on
an acre of fairly good soil, if it is
put in good condition with plow and
harrow and plenty of seed and har
rowed in. This should be done in
October for winter feeding. Sow' a
A'ariety of grain and gras-ses, any
green stuff is grist to the hen’s mill
during winter. I have sown as much
as ten bushels of mixed grain per
acre with 30 pounds crimson clover
seed, ten pounds of grape seed, fifty
pounds of winter vetch. The grain
should be a mixture of wheat, oats,
rye and barley, about equal parts.
Sow this and the vetch on the land
immedately after plowing: then har
row down smoothand sow the clover
and rape seed on this smooth surface
and harrow lightly. Keep the fowls
off until the grain is three or four
inches high, and you will be surpris
ed and pleased with the result. You
will have half the winter’s fe^ for
a flock of TOO hens where they can
get it themselves and have a better
feed than can be found or bought
at any feed store in America. It is
feed, tonic, exercise and health com
bined. Next is the grain. Take any
of the so-called “scratch feeds” and
analyze it and you will find it is com
posed oi wheat, oats, cracked corn,
barley, buckwheat, kaffir corn, sorg
hum seed, sunflower seed, millet seed
and trash—that is. old vegetable
seeds left over from the large seed
houses. Very much of the grain and
seed in this mixture is not salable
and is put up as a scratch feed be
cause anything is supposed to be
good enough for fowls. lx)Ok the list
over and note that everything in it
can be grown on any farm in our lat
itude. and then figure how much
cheaper Find better your scratch feed
will be, if you will grow it on the
farm and liave it fresh and clean.
These crops will not only produce
the grains necessary for the scratch
feed, but ^ill produce a good sup
ply of forage (long feed) for the
cow, the horse and that Indispen
sable cousin, the mule. W’ith a good
patch of the green food growing,
and a good supply of home-grown
scratch feed in theb in. a good-sized
flock of early hatched pullets will
furnish oggs during fall and winter
not onlv to buy all the groceries-,
flour, etc-,, for a family, but will pay
for many other necessaries, and
when the cotton, tobacco and other
field crops ares 3ld, it vcill not take
the bulk of the crop to pay the
storekeeper for the early supplies.
Where a sufficient number of laying
hens Are kept it will pay to grade
the eggs and ship them to northern
markets, and thus realize fully one-
third more for them in cash than
can be realized at the country and
village stores. Try it and be con
vinced.
