POULTRY YARD NOTES. Poultry recommends itself instantly as a good investment nowadays. None beside the hen has a better letter of credit than the Muscovy duck, warranted noiseless, inoffensive, adaptable and early maturing. Though a common fallacy believes it musky, it is unnotlceable. Geese on good pasturage are as economical till fattening time.

Turkeys run up a big board bill after September. No other fowl approaching the weight of the Muscovy can so satisfactorily support itself from start to finish. Though an honest member of the duck tribe. It lacks many faults of its kinsmen. For that reason any person reasonably situated can raise a few Muscovies.

One drake and three to six ducks, according to environment, are sufficient for the average barnyard flock. Their health and independence recommend them to the negro. In the south they form the chief feature first of cabin scenes; of cabin feasts, later. The extra grain they eat is scarcely missed. Their eggs may be used, but are saved for incubation.

Their thick, downy plumage Is not despised as a substitute for goose feathers. The Muscovy on range is practically a minus the self-feeder's habit of destructiveness. It Is-not a scavenger, but feeds and thrives where other fowls would subsist meagerly. Figuratively, it is the pig of the poultry yard. It grubs assiduously for worms, beetles and roots.

Flies are special dainties. Young Muscovies soon seize the opportunity presented by a sleeping cow in flytime, and forthwith establish themselves as fly-catchers-in-waiting. Little ducks fearlessly circle a calf, hopping up and down after flies. They respond to supplementary feeding of meal, wheat screenings, cracked corn, mill feed, bran, rolled oats and so on. They can and do thrive without grain, but must have range to some degree.

Having no crop, this duck is a continu- I ous feeder and requires much roughage, Familiarity with Muscovy nature re- veals traits decidedly anomalous to duck disposition. The warty knots at the base of the drake's bill, his huge, i unwieldy size and lumbering gait con- i fer upon him a bellicose air. The duck is gentler, timid, but responsive to ad- vances when accompanied with bribes of corn, till she has established her friendship. Neither has a quack worth mentioning. Fences are a favorite perch, and there is a tale of a duck that nested in a tree.

When scared young and thin Muscovies take prolong- i ed flights. They must be handled with care else they may do damage with their long-, curved toe nails, their chief method of defense. The duck nests in dark corners, under mangers and boxes, in litter, secretes it with a turkey's cunning and shares the guinea's revulsion to having it disturbed. Collecting her eggs upsets her arrangements and she promptly seeks a new nest. She lines it witih down and proceeds to settle herself for a five weeks' incubation.

Whenever she leaves it. she covers the eggs with a down blanket.no matter how hot the weather. Managing the young ones depends upon the environment. Nature's plan is easiest. Two days after hatching, the proud mother may be seen conducting her brood to the nearest water, exhorting them with a sibilant but imperative hiss.

Then she hastens to the fields and raises her family in cheerful independence, or she may accept gratefully a daily supper of some sort of mash. Jt is interesting to note that the youngsters hatch very leisurely, often consuming two days in cracking the shell and emerging. in marked contrast to the haste of rhe guinea. They should not be taken from the nest too soon. Having been accustomed for weeks to a sustained high heat, they are susceptible to chill which will speedily end their career.

If. as sometimes happens, Mother Muscovy misreckons the calendar and presents a brood too early, the nest with its downy lining may be transferred to a coop where the mother may be domiciled. It means the saving of the ducklings. Baby Muscovies learn to know the coop and hen with alacrity. They must have a constant sunply of drinking water and grit, with three daily meals of soft mash and some sort of meat food, such as milk, curd or boiled Denied this, they will develop a morbid appetite for dead things.

The first decayed material they find introduces "limberneck" into the flock, the only disease which troubles them, and is almost always fatal. Young: Muscovies can be penned successfully, but their hoard bill devours the profit. Fresh crab shells are a favored and cheap addition to duck diet In tidewater counts. Curd is usually available on farms. Presh scraps from the table, ground un.

are excellent and contribute to satisfying the craving of these meat-eaters, if they lack the opportunity to get sufficient worms and beetles. At the age of three and one-half to four months they are full-feathered, weighing three to five pounds (according to sex) and marketable. Kept too long after this they gain weight at expense of tenderness of meat.
