We almost swear by our geese and we can make each old goose bring In $100 a season. It's not easy to make sows return a greater profit when present feed costs are computed. Our old pairs, and we never attempt to raise from young geese, are good- - for four dozen eggs In a season and will raise 30 goslings each to maturity, writes J. L. Phillips, Whitman county, Washington, in Cappers Farmer. Each goose lays three times and we let her sit on her last laying of eggs. There is little cost to raising geese on a general farm and that is the place for profits on almost any sort of live stock. Our goslings grow up on grass until after harvest Then they fatten themselves on waste grain in the wheat and oats fields and on corn and beans scattered where the hogs harvest' those crops. They get practically nothing that would not otherwise go to waste. We sell the best goslings as breeders for $5 each and the common ones at market price for Thanksgiving and Christmas. They weigh 15 to 20 pounds each. By dressing them we get better than $1 each out of the feathers to pay for the work. Our ducks are almost as profitable as the geese and If it were not for the fact that the eggs do not hatch in an ordinary incubator, I doubt if we would have a hen on the place. They lay splendidly and we hatch from April until August The young are full feathered at eight weeks for the broiler chicken market and we have no trouble selling them. We like them mighty well fried, too, and use a lot of them at home. The old ducks weigh 6 to 9 pounds and the young ones at eight weeks old as high as 4 pounds. We never could get that weight with chickens. I dont think the average family ap- predates the ease with which the water fowls are raised. Ducklings or goslings Increase In weight about three times as rapidly as chickens. It makes the need of brooding much shorter and gets some size on them so they will be out of danger from rats or from being tramped on long before chickens have reached that stage.

Chinese Rank Third The breed which probably ranks third in number in the United States as a tyhole is the Chinese. There are two varieties of this breed: White Chinese and Brown Chinese. This breed is rather small, the ganders weighing ten to twelve pounds. Their popularity is iatgely due to the fact that they are the most prolific breed of geese. Under good management they may be rajnseted to produce 60 to 100 eggs in a laying season. Like other geese, their main feed Is gram , What Will Sunny Spam Country of the Imagination The treatment and care of the ewe after lambing is of great importance. Overfeeding stimulates too great a milk flow, which may cause digestive trouble in the lamb or garget in the ewe. A ewe will hardly eat too much hay and this need not be limited, but it is better to give no grain until the lamb can take all the milk. Roots or mangels in addition to hay make an excellent feed at this time as they are very mild and cooling to the system. If the ewe is troubled with garget or caked udder, she should have immediate attention. Garget was formerly thought to be due to the lambs not taking all the milk; however, it is now considered a germ disease. Heavy feeding of grain to milking ewes overtaxes the digestive organs and is in part responsible for the Sometimes it is brought on disease. also by colds, chills, etc., due to ewes being compelled to lie on wet ground. No prescribed remedy has proved an effective cure. As soon as the disease appears give a dose of epsom salts and bathe the udder with hot water to which one ounce of baking soda has been added. Then dry the udder thoroughly and apply a mixture of lard and turpentine, which should be mixed to the consistency of cream and be well rubbed into the udder. Milk the ewe thoroughly and manipulate the udder several times a day. In bad cases nothing seems to check the disease. After the lamb Is taking all the milk, the ewe should, be well fed f About one and pounds of grain and three pounds of bright clover or alfalfa with two or three pounds of roots or silage make a full feed. This ration should be continued until the flock is turned out to grass, as good milk flow is essential to the production of strong, vigorous lambs, When about 12 to 14 days old the lambs will begin nibbling at hay or grain. As gains may be made very cheap at this time, the lambs should be encouraged to take all the hay and grain they will eat, besides the milk This may be from their mothers. done by means of a creep, which is a small pen constructed so as to admit the lambs but exclude the older sheep. It may be made of slats like a picket fence, spacing them seven or eight inches apart, according to the size of the ewes.
