VOYAGE NORTH

ard Oil docks. The steamer departed
for the Westward early in the even

BREEDING WHO DUCKS
FOR GAME SHOOTING
WASHINGTON, March 17. (£>)—
Not many -species of wild ducks lend
themselves readily to methods of
artificial propagation, but one, the
i
Mallard, can be raised with reason
able certainty of success by ama
teurs. The propagation of Mallard i
ducks offers an enticing field, not (
only to the poultryman as a source
of profit and for food, but to the
sportesman as a means of increas
ing the wild stock for hunting pur
poses.
The Federal government licenses
some 3,000 persons to breed migra
tory game birds in captivity, chiefly
Mallard ducks, and reports indicate
that something over 40,000 ducks
are raised a year and over half of
these are reported as killed and sold
or #used for food.
