studding and take out the board. Put
two small hinges on it, replace, and
fix a button to hold it in place. Next
cut a slit about two inches wide and
pearly to the studding on both sides,
about a foot above the floor. Insert a
trough running back, and slanting to
the outside clapboards. Aliow the
front edge of the trough to come a lit-
tle above the opening in the wall so
the feed will not overrun. With a coal
scuttle the trough may be easily
filled, and the hens cannot waste, or
get on top of the trough and foul it.
I have three in my house for grit,
shell and bran, during the winter.

have to be filled from the outside
With this plant the feed crops down

INDIAN RUNNER DUCKS EXCEL
Sometimes Called Egg Machines and
Also Afford Additional Value by
Their Feathers.
Although the Indian Runners are
sometimes called egg machines, we
find they are of additional value for
feathers, by picking them at moulting
time, thus saving the feathers; and
also preventing them from being scat
tered over their lots or run, says a
writer in an exchange.
While they are great foragers in
search of food, they never fail to re
turn home at night.
Taking everything into considera
tion, there is certainly no other fow!

that affords greater profit for
time and expense required than the
Indian Runner duck; and they are
not alone an all-round practical fowl,
but ornamental as well. Their alert,
lively nature, their graceful form;
beautiful colors and interesting
habits appeal to the artistic sense of
every one,
The work alone in raising them is
very interesting, because it is easy,
clean and honorable, and, above all,
there is big profits in it, which is the
greatest incentive to all business.
SOME SYSTEM IS NECESSARY
Poultrymen Should Keep Books, Same
as in Any Other Line of Business
—It Stops Leaks.
Poultry keeping is a business
and should be conducted along
business lines. Some system of

tryman should keep records of all
the income and expenses of his busi-
ness in order to know whether it is a
paying proposition or not. If it does
not pay he should know it and either
stop the leak or go out of business
is not necessary. If the poultryman
wishes to avoid keeping full accounts
he can at least keep a cash account. |
This does not express the exact finan-
cial condition of the business, but is |
an excellent help so far as it goes.
