I...................- -RELIABILITY —RELIABILITY — EXPERIENCE— Ducks for Profit There are few farmers in Canada devoting any time or study to the rearing and marketing of ducks. Ve- haps. this s, to a large extent, due to the feet that they do not realize the income that may be derived from this industry. So little has been written about ducks compared with that relating to the hen that potpie are apt to think this branch of the poultry industry unimportant. • When farmers. stop. to consider the advan- tages in favor of duel. raising, there: will be an -increase in the yieM of this valuable product. Mucks are- less... liable to disease than other fowl. This is one thins; that speaks well in their favor: Many Sar- niers fear to venture into duck raising because they consider they have not the natural facilities ; no pond or stream to provide exercise for the ducks. This is a serious , Ducks' will thrive equally wellmifistathekrei c is •no pend or• stream in con cction with the farm A11 they require,ut re, as regards water, is .an abundance of fresh drinking water. 1t is almost impossible to .get young growing ducjt- lings in marketing condition. if allowed freedom on a pond or stream. Duck breeders are be coming • im- pressed with the fact that it is not "What will a duels stand?" but "Ilow much will a duck stand ?" It is a co•mnion thing to see young duck ilin gs. almost covered with mud and enjoy- ing it. I do not advise that ducks require mud to induce 'growth: I+ar from it, But I do want it to be clearly, understood that in conditions e• wherchickens would certainly die, ducks •wwpuld consider themselves in clover.... • The housing of breeding ducks even in .cold• weather is a very simple -pro- position=-a double boarded ' house that will keep out the snow and storm' answers the purpose Well. • Ducks are not particular as to their food. The common saying is that, "a duck will cat its head off before it is . ready fon market in the . autumn." Perhaps there is some truth in the saying, but .why should a duck • that is intended for .market., hatched • say in April or May; be allowed its free- dom. mita fall ? The management is at fault here. A duckling, should reach- the.markct stage at from 8 to 10 weeks and \weigh • 10- to 12 lbs:. a pair dressed. • W. H. Watts & Son..

Borden spoke to a good- sized meeting at Sherbrooke, a village in Guysboro county, N.S. ted for Trial, Exeter, August 14.—Tlte last scene of the second act of the now famous Usborne robbery was played in Exet- er on. Saturday afternoon, when. Brian Rockeliffe, farmer of the seventh line of Usborne townslip, the man at whose door many offences had been laid, came tip for his final hearing before Squire Tay, and was commit- ted s it (lod- e i - tcd to the December e3 ,ons at od erich. Chapman, his accomplice. and: hired p , p hand, lies in Goderielt jail awaiting the sentence ne g Judge Doyle(,cd- I� c of Jud of erich, before whom he has appeared. Chapman was committed aweek ago Saturday by Squire Tay on two charges, theft and conspiracy to rob. Until mitt he was committed not a word against his employer would he say, but when sent up for trial he broke char d epi bo with wand c. his1 cr r down gp Y having been the instigator of the ser- ies; of crimes that have been conimiitt- ed against Usborne township farmers for years. The .coming of the private detective —his woren•ing his way into the con- fidence of the people of the town- ship, his working as a. hired man and gaining evidence against Chapman and his employer and the final scene when Provincial Officer Whitesidcs stepped in and, armed with a search 'ww,ttrent found loot piled high in the .second story of the Rockclitfe farmhouse— have greatly aroused the interest of the 'People of the surrounding man - try. Since his first arraignment nearly a month ago Rockeliffe has said not a word,. neither pleading nor electing. Ilis lawyer, M. Dickson of Exeter elected far hint on Saturday. Facing a double charge, theft and conspiracy.
