Fowls Will Be Found Profltable In Reglone of Cheap Land and Abundant Pasturage. If the goose of the fable was able to lay a golden egg there Is no reason why her progeny of the present era cannot repeat this miracle In a more concrete form. Goose meat Is nutri tions and palatable and not greasy when properly cooked, and an exten sion of goose raising in the regions of cheap land where pasturage is abundant Is a suggested source of cheaper meat. Geese are raised chiefly in the South and middle West. Kentucky, Tennes see, Missouri and Arkansas being the chief supply sources. During the dec ade ending in 1910 the total number of geese declined 22 per cent, largely be cause of the lack of cheap pasture and the limited demand for goose feathers and goose flesh. The Toulouse, Emden, Chinese and African are the most popular Ameri can breeds of geese, the first two greatly leading the others. Occasion ally the eggs are used for cooking, but generally geese are kept only for treat and feather production. Practically all the geese In this country are raised In small flocks on general farms, some men making a specialty of collecting large numbers of geese and fatten ing them for a few weeks before they are killed. As grass makes up the hulk of feed for geese, it Is doubt ful whether it pays to raise them un less good grass range Is available dur ing the summer. A pool of water for bathing and recreational purposes is also a desirable feature. The market for geese is not so gen eral as for chickens. This point should he considered In undertaking the rais ing of geese. The demand and the price paid for geese are usually good In sections where goose fattening is conducted on a large scale. Geese are hardy birds and need shel ter only In the worst weather. An empty shed or an old barn usually Is satisfactory for this purpose. From 4 to 25 geese may be kept on an acre of land, although under moat condi tions ten Is a fair average. Wherever possible the geese should have free LODGE directory PROFESSIONAL CARDS 4 Pik’ . .7 s * DR.C. O.

South ern plantation owners keep geese to kill the weeds In the cotton fields. The eggs may he batched by either hens or geese. Some breeders prefer to raise all the goslings under hens, as geese sometimes become difficult to manage when allowed to hatch and rear their young. The period of in- • n I Ion of goose eggs varies from 28 to 30 dnys. Goslings do not need food until they are twenty-four to thirty-six hours old, when they should be fed one of the mashes recommended for chickens or goslings, or a mash or dough of two-thirds aborts (middlings) und one-third cornmeal, which can be made of equal parta shorts and cornmeal, with 5 per cent of beef scrap added after the goslings afe six weeks old. Bread and milk make an excellent feed for young goslings. ine grit or sharp sand should also be available In cold weather. Most geese breeders do not confine their geese for fattening, but feed freely a few weeks on a fattening .i ion before they are to be marketed. he geese may be confined for two or 'weeks and fattened, but some u feed or vegetables should be added to the ration.
