DETERMINE SEX OF A GOOSE
One Good Way Is to Notice Difference
in Voices—Mating Season Is
Usually in Fall,
In answer to a query as to method
orrule for determining the sex of geese,
an exchange makes {the following re
ply: ;
There are no marks by which one
can tell the gander from the goose.
The . only ways are to watch the ac
tions of the birds and to notice the
differences in their woices. The gan
der has what #s popularly called a
‘enor voice. 1t is possible that all four

you will be unfortunate in attempts
to raise any goslings even if you do se
cure ganders. This is because the
mating season is in the fall, usually
in September or October, and also be
cause geese very much dislike to have
their quarters changed when once ac
customed to them. For this reason peo
ple who wish to secure birds for breed
ing purposes inake their purchases in
the fall so the fowls will get accus
tomed to their new surroundings.
Doubtless nests will be made and the
eggs laid, but the eggs may not hatch.
If you are forced to buy a gander this
spring, it will perbaps be advisable
for you to purchase some good €ggs
of the same breed as you keep, and
use these rather than the eggs from
your own flock, or at least mark the
eggs 80 that you can distinguish the
purchased ones from those laid by
your own birds. In this way Yyou
should not be wholly disappointed.
GIVING CHARCOAL TO FOWLS
Puts Them In Goed Condition for
Work and Prevents Many Diseases
Incidental tc Season.
Does the average farmer know that
an excellent grade of charcoal can
be made by burning corn cobs till
they turn red, extinguishing the fire
and when dry grinding for mash
feeding for the poultry. s
Charcoal is not a food, though
fowls gain in flesh and eggs during
its use; it simply puts them and
keeps them in a good condition for
work. It prevents disease because of
its great capacity to absorb gases,
acids and impurities. It is an alter~
ative, changing diseased conditions
to normal, disinfecting the diges
tive tract and toning up the system.
In putrid disease like roup, in fer
mentation like sour crop, in intesti
nal maladies like diarrhea or cholera,
it is of great benefit. In spring and
in summer, when the fowl’s blood lis
sluggish it is needed as a purifier to
ward off diseases incidental to theosa
geasons. .
It should be kept before fov'is in
size to suit their age, and where fowls
refuse to @at it fine charcoal should
be mixed in the mash occasionally. It
is best giwen to individual birds in
flve-grgin capsules—llarge doses are
necessary, «

Mayoralty Election
Atlanta, QOct. 3.—Yesterday's
mayorality primary has left a bad
taste in Atlanta’s mouth. The
campaign of personal ahuse on
both sides was carried so far
that everybody who was connec
ted with either of the leading
candidates suffered.
It put Atlanta in the position
of advertising to the world that
she was going to choose either a
drunkard or a ringster as mayor.
That neither of these appellations
describes the men to whom they
have been applied is a thing that
all Atlantans know, but that the
world at large does not,
In view of the harm to individ
uals and to the community which
comes from mud-slinging, Atlan
ta will probably ask her repre
sentatives in the next legislature
to introduce some kind of a bill
to pass a law setting a limit on
the extent tc which personal
abuse can figure in a political
campaign.
It has been suggested that the
law prohibit the dragging of a
candidate’s private personal af
fairs before the people and limit
attacks to matters which bear
directly upon his fitness to dis
charge the duties of the office.
According to a bulletin lately
issued by the Census Bureau, far
mers certainly have no right to
complain of the prices thecy are
getting this year. The average
orices paid producers for a num
ber of products for May 15, 1912
and 1911 are as follows: Corn 82.3
cents; oats 55.3 cents, 34.7 cents;
hay $17.45, $13.16 per ton; butter
24.8 cents, 20,3 cents; hogs $6.79,
$5.72; beef cattle $5.37, $4.59;
sheep $4.74, $4.51 per 100 pounds;
milk 22.5 certs, 20.9 cents per
gallon. The only notable decreases
were to be found in cotton, which
this year brought 11 cents per
pound against 14,5 cents last year
and cottonseed which brought
$19.21 a ton, against $25.46 last
year. Truly, we all-cotton farmers
did get hard hit last year, and if
high prices, which now seem prob
able this year, induce us to go cot
ton crazy again next spring, the
same old story will be told again.
