POULTRY FARMINGS (From "Poulrrv and Eges for M>oket ano Export " by J. A. Henderson) DUCKS. Moat of the rules given for fowls app'y tf ducks; but they are much more eahily reared and fattened. Like fowls, they can be improved m their laying and as table birds by selection ; also, with them, h, turn cross i 8 a most profitable bird, heing 0 better layer and more easily reared than the The breedß to chooße from are Ayleabury, Rouen, and Fekin, The aylesbury is th best all-round bird m its pure state. The Pekin i« the beat layer. They may be crossed m. anyway; but the best croi<se« are: Rouen drake and Avleabury duck, Pekin drake and Rouen, duck. A purebred drake may also be crossed with common ducks, .-ilwaya choose iiieuigim framed; iro'eas breeding for eggs. 'I ht breeding birds should be ten *tb. twelve months old at least, and four or five ducks run with each drake. They mu^ not , be harassed when laying. A > pond is not essential unless they have been used to it. To lay m: winter they must be kept dry and warm and have hot cooked food. Feed sparingly after their moult, or they will get too fat to lay* Do not give much meat m hot weather, «w. .they will shed tfceir feathers. HOUSES FOB DUOKB, •..-'. Any house will do that will keep them dry and. warm m winter: One built of sod and roofed with thatch does capitally. Leave the upper half of , the open for ventilation. Keep them shut up till about nineo'olook m the morning, when they will have laid. There should be a small yard m front of the house to feed and water them m. , DUCKLINGS. It pays well to rear ducklings for th<* market. They are fit to kill at ten or eleven weeks old ; if kept much longer they begin to moult. ~ The eggs may be set under a nen, or m an incubator. They hatoh m twenty-eight days. When hatched remove to a box lined with straw. They require no mother. Keep them clean. Sprinkle a little oatmeal m their water at first, and feed on pollard and meal mixed warm, giving them ay little bonednab and chopped np meat two or three times a week. Feed four times a day, oftener at first. Milk how and then, instead of water, mixed m their food helps them. After five weeks they should get little water. They may also then have wheat put m their water at night. They should be all along, except the last week, supplied with green food, and fine grit or sand should always be kept m their water. A small house does, but it musb be kept clean. Put freah straw m every morning. Feed and water them m a small yard out side. Do not let them lie m the sun m very hot weather or some will die of sunstroke. For export, commenco setting eggs m August and leave off early m December. GEESE, For breeding-stock get a Toulouse gander and four Embden geese, and get them as large framed as possible, and two years old or over. Geese live to a great age, and these need not be changed, but kept as breeders as long as they prove satisfactory. They should be shut up at night. A small pond, about two feet deep or more, is almost a necessity. Give hot food early m the season to induce early laying, GOSLINGS* Geese make good sitters and mothers Eggs may also be set under hens, and the birds given to the goose to rear with her own. Nests should be on the ground. Moisten the eggs well. They take thirty days to hatoh. Feed as directed for ducklings till fledged, and they will then feed them selves. If intended to be fattened for market at four to six months old they musb be fed right on, and may be shut up m a slightly darkened place and fed on meal and j oats for a short time to finish off. Geese fatten well on stubble fields. Fed as above directed they should weigh about 101 b live weight. The quality of the flesh depends on the feedi c. TURKEYS. The American bronze t-hould b 3 selected to cross with the common turkey. Large framed birds, two years or over, are most suitable, and in-breeding muse be careful y avoided. They require plenty of room, and wander ftr, so should be fed at night to bring them home. HATCHING AXD REARING TURKEYS. The gobblers should be shut off from the rearing ground. Early-roared birds do best. Turkeys sib so very close that they often require to be taken off the nest and fed. A few eggs should b-j *et under hens and added to the turkey's flock. A little before the eggs are hatched take her off the nest and clean it out, and se« that fhe it* clear of vermin! 'f h-» eggs take twenty-eight or twenty-nine days to hatch. Turkeys are hard to rear. The '<cab helps ara dryoens and oleauliness and free dom from lice. Keep them inside for a day or two, then put r.hn mo' her m a coop oh bhort dry grass. Let her out when the young oiea are three weeks old, aud feed them under a frame. tfnr the first week their food should be htrd-boiled eggs with chopped; dandelion leaves. Curd or sour milk with tops of onions or dock, cut fine, may also be given They m«y be afterwards fed on pollard and meal, like chickens, and may get a little grain. Change the food now and then. Bonemeal and meat muse be supplied, and milk will do no harm. The growing birds should perch on flat roosts only. Lice kill about half the young turkeys that die. Open sheds make the best roost'ng places, and short grass the best runs. Turkey cocks should weigh 12ib or over, and hena 71b or over at twelve months old. Fatten m a slightly darkened shed, the light being let m while feeding, and give them meal mixed with boiled potatoes. Boiled corn may be given for a change.

The Portable Swing Water Barrow. Prevention is Better Than Cure IT\HE few caßes of Typhoid m Ashbnrton Borough and Suburbs afford no i. ground for a " sc^re," but it is only by using reasonable precautions that the dread scourge can be kept within bounds. In view of the subject being referred to m the public journals, it may be of service to reprint an extract from an isßne of the " Nineteenth Century " of last year, m which special reference is made to Diphtheria, but which applies with equal force to Typhoid. The writer remarks, that the latest epidemics m Russia swept away nearly all the children m some villages ; and m Prussia, no less than one- sixth to one-fourth part of all children dying m the age of from one to five 3 ears suc- cumbed to Diphtheria, and the same proportion prevailed m Western Europe as well. Keen interest is being taken m the experiments of the French Doctors, Roux and Tersen ; but Diphtheria, like Anthrax, Cholera, Typhoid, Malaria, and other kindred complaints is due to an infection of the body by special bacteria, caused by the effluvia rising from drains, back yards and premises generally, into and upon which dairy and kitchen slops have been thrown. Without an infection by bacteria or the poisons which they secrete, there is no diphtheria. The Portable Wash Barrow is just the one thing indispensable m the direction of perfect sanitary arrangements. By its use, a two-fold benefit is derived. The fever ard diphtheria breeding agencies are removed, and what is otherwise a source of terror becomes an absolute ■ gain, by conveying the wash to pig trough or to the garden. The Portable Barrows oan be put to various kinds of use, and they are so admirably con- structed that, with them, a child can do fork which otherwise requires the strength of mature years. The cost is comparatively small. Possession of one becomes an absolute means of sweetness, comfort and profit. — (o) Improved Copper Boilers. I have just received direct from the manufacturers a fresh supply of Portable Copper Boilers, with patent smoke stock joint, and Semi-double eheeted frame — galvanised.
