Daily Feed Rules for Young Ducks
Daily feed for young ducks varies with growth. Each week they gain weight, requiring more feed. Feed only what they will eat cleanly, remove leftovers, and keep troughs clean after every meal. Better to underfeed than waste, as this improves appetite for the next meal.
Inexpensive Shed Is Suitable for Ducks
A duck house only needs to be draft proof and not very warm. A concrete bottom with shavings in the corners provides a dry bed for ten ducks and two drakes. A ten by twelve shed works, but twelve by twenty is better. include a shed roof and one or two slide windows on the south wall for ventilation.

Milk bottle rattlesnake act as proof of trapping skill
From Roundabout Syndicated notes Sylvester Harris displayed two seven button rattlesnakes in a milk bottle Friday to demonstrate his trapping prowess. In Milan, John Eaves of the class of 1930 won a one year scholarship at St. Edward's College in Austin, Texas and left Wednesday night to begin studies. A Clinton County motorist was knocked unconscious in a car smash and carried to a veterinary office by mistake, where the vet refused treatment explaining he is a veterinarian not a physician.
