The Toulouse and Embden are the most popular breeds of geese in this country. The Toulouse is the largest breed, the adult gander and goose weighing twenty-five and twenty The Embden geese are probably the most desirable for all around purposes. They are rapld growers, good foragers and more suitable for early markets. Their flesh is finer, whiter and of a better flavor than that of other varieties and they have a wealth of pure white plum- age that has a high market value. The gander shown is an Embden. pounds respectively, while the stand- ard weights of the Embden are twen- ty and eighteen pounds. Geese can be raised in small numbers successfully and at a profit on many farms where there is low, rough pas- ture land containing a natural supply of water. The market for geese is not 80 general as for chickens, but the demand and prices are especially good in sections where goose fattening 1s conducted. Geese are generally raised where they have a good grass range or pas- ture, as they are good grazers and usually pick up most of their living, ex- cept during the winter months and the breeding season. Goslings should be fed a mash of two parts shorts and one part cornmeal by weight, changing at the end of three weeks to equal parts shorts and cornmeal with 5 per cent each of beef serap and grit. A fatten- ing ration may be made of a mash of one part shorts and two parts corn- meal by weight with & per cent of beef serap, fed in the morning, and a feed of corn.at night. Goslings revel in sunshine and grass flanked with water. A wire topped coop with slat sides, 8 by 6 by 2 feet, which is easily moved, is eficient in confining the mother and allowing the goslings range for a week. Thereafter they may trudge abroad with their mother. Most raisers limit goslings to the lawn or small lot for ten weeks, when they graduate to the pasture. Water fronts are not absolutely es- sential to successful goose ralsing, but add to the fowl's comfort. Parasites are not so troublesome if there is un- bampered access to water, and the plumage is cleaner. In August and thereafter at periods of seven weeks the flock is plucked of its “ripe” (ready to be shed) feathers. Three pickings from seventy-five fowls aggregate at least fifty pounds of choice feathers at 65 cents. Plucking and fattening have a close connection. Immediately after the last picking goslings should be fattened. When full fledged they add no.more weight till after another shedding and are therefore ready for shipment. When Hatching Is Over. Because chicks are largely hatched in the spring, we speak of a hatching sea- son and are likely to consider it as of chief importance. But the poultry sea- son does not end when all the chicks are hatched; in fact, getting the chicks is the easiest part of the business. The real task is to keep them alive and growing, , and this requires several months of careful attention. After that comes the grading, taking out all culls and inferior stock and getting them ready for market and finding a market for them and the old breeding stock that have served their time and have passed the period of usefulness. Isolate Sick Fowls. As a prevention of contagion never fatroduce new stock to your flock with- dut first subjecting it to quarantine for least ten days. Never return appar- ently cured birds to a flock until at least a week after last symptoms of the disease disappeared. Instantly iso- late all fowls suspected of disease. Never go direct from handling sick birds or from strange henneries to your own. Never keep sick birds in the same room where food for other fowls is kept. © Whenever disease appears and the cause is discoverable if possi- ble remove the cause. Mating Turkeys. Kansas station experiments show that twelve to fifteen turkey hens can be safely mated to one vigorous tom turkey. If twenty-five to thirty hens gre kept two toms should not be al- lowed to run with them at the same time. One should be confined one day and the other the next Otherwise the males will fight so much as to be of less value as breeders.

Anti-Catholics declare that the re- ligious issue is greater than the Pro- hibition issue. The conservatives are opposing the anti-Catholic plank, fearing that they might antagonize the Catholic dry vote. Sulzer issued a statement this af- ternoon stating that if he was nom- inated the American party, an anti- Catholic political organization, would also nominate him that would poll 2,000,000 votes. The platform committee reported to the convention late this afternoon a conservative anti-Catholic plank and advocated freedom of our Amer- ican institutions and the separation of the church and state. The plat- form advocated friendship with Mex- ico and a preparedness policy but op- position to Republican and Demo- cratic militarism.
