PROFIT IN RAISING A California man who says he can sell geese for $1.50 each wishes to know the details of raising them, | writes a correspondent of the Country Gentleman. He asks whether they | must be mated in pairs, each pair penned separately and whether it is necessary .to have-a pond to insure proper mating and fertile eggs. He has a good grass range, therefore has the most essential factor, for be it re-, membered that the goose is a grazing animal and an abundant supply of grass in summer and succulent feed in winter not only insures thrifty, vigor- ous stock and eggs with stronger germs and higher fertility, but cheap- ens the feeding materially. So far as I know, nowhere are geese raised in such large numbers on single farms as are ducks and chickens. In many of the states, especially in the west and in Canada. they are raised on stock and grain farms at very lit- tle cost, because after the goslings are a few days old they can get a large part of their feed by grazing. Many a small farmer. especially if he has low, wet land. is in a position to net a tidy sum by raising and fat- tening geese at a minimum of ex- pense and labor. The old notion that geese are monog- amous and paired for life is a myth. The ganders will mate with two or three or even more geese. I have seen a goose which had lost her mate and refused to mate with another gander.

(222X SRS S22 XL THE LAND’S FIRST NEED. Fertility is the first word in farming. It is the first consid- Geese should never be used as breeders until two years of age, and still older is better. Geese will lay more eggs when five or six vears old- than when young, and the goslings will be stronger. Geese can be used for breeders until they are twenty-five yvears old. and sometimes older. For market pur- poses alone the best plan is to mate two or three Toul e geese to an Embden gander. The result of this cross will be stock that is easily raised, mature more quickly. grow to be larger and will fatten m quickly than any one variety. This mixed progeny should never be used for breeders, because tliey do not give $ood results. The geese pictured are of the Toulouse breed. but I know that this is not true of all. I believe the wild goose and probably some of its crosses is an exception. Unless there is wide range it is better to have the ganders penned separately. each with his own harem, as they fight | viciously, especially in the mating sea- son. 1 raised geese successfully for sev- eral years with water for drinking pur- poses only, so I know the belief that they must have a pond or stream while ! mating to insure fertile eggs is not well founded. Ntill I believe it is bet- ter for the breeding stock of all water ‘ fowl to have water to swim in. It cer- rainly is more natural. Not only are geese more cheaply and easily fed than other poultry, but they have several other advantages in their favor. THhey require little in the way of buildings. A low, cheap shed to shelter them from severe storms .and to provide a nesting place is suftficient. They suffer little from disease. They require less care and attention than other poultry. The breeding stock does not require renewing so often. In rais'ng geese. however. it is ad“ visable to confine the goose and her | brood until the goslings are a few weeks old. Geese are great foragers, and the old goose will tire and wear out her brood unless they are allowed to first gain size and strength before being turned out to pasture. The Aylesbury Duck. The Aylesbury duck is preferred in England to any other breed. It is claimed that the Aylesbury will at- tain killing size a fortnight sooner than the Peking and a month sooner than the Rouen.

I I Iy Y °y 3 eration in placing a value on new lands. It is first mentioned when old farms are sold. It is the first problem that confronts the beginner as well as the ex- pert who takes up the cultiva- tion of new crops on new fields. It is first in a list of questions asked by those seeking help in farming. The solution of the fer- tility problem makes many other problems comparatively easy to solve. The quick and easy way to get fertility is to buy it. It can be had in bags in the form of com- mercial fertilizers or by the car- load in the form of animal manure. But this method of fertilization requires cash capital and does not fulfill all the needs of the land. Since we have learned that a fertile soil is a mixture of mineral and vegetable sub- stance. teeming with germ life, fermenting with innumerable minute plants and chemical changes, we have learned that a «0il needs more than mere min- eral plant foods to enable it to grow the maximum crops. It has long been known that legumes and green manures are beneficial to soils, but only re- cently have we learned to use these green manures to build a soil up permanently and to keep it up at the lowpst cost. -X-X“l“l“l“l“l“l“l-*'P*'X-'2"l"l"l'-l'-l-ifllfllfll”l’***’lfllfllfll‘**’l‘***’lfll"l’*iifllfll’ G e e oo e o oo oo oo oo B oo ole T 30 e T % Money to Loan on Improved Farms Plenty of Money for Good Applications Write Us if You Want a Loan No trouble to do business by mail Interstate Securities Co.
