somewhat more general scale than usual at
this date. The high water in the river, how
ever, still caused bears concern and prevented
free short selling. At the end or the first
half hour of business prices were 5 to 7 points
under Saturday’s close.
The market became very quiet around the
middle of the morning. Prices maintained their
lowest tendency. No large amount of cotton
was ofefred for sale, but even moderate offer- ,
ings were met by a small demand. Trade was
Impressed by the decline In foreign national se
curities and buying was chiefly by scalping
shorts. Little outside business came In, room
traders doing the bulk of the trading. At
the lowest of the morning prices were 10 to 13
points under Saturday’s final quotations. At
noon prices were 8 to 11 .under.

en>ool firms will combine to take up May in
New York.” The logical Inference drawn from
this news was, of course, that May might work
to a greater premium over July and there was
ln consequence a good deal of swapping by
shorts from May to July. Otherwise the market
was dull with a tendency to ease on unfavorable
political news, good weather and generally fa
vorable crop news.
Liverpool houses were also buying May here,
which may be significant in vie wof the above
cable advice. Fear of the technical situation
in New York and the large professional bull
interest lu tbe summer positions there check
sellllng right along and is greatly responsible
for the narrowness of the market.

FLOODS AND IRON MARKET
The iron and steel market in all parts of
the country was brought to a sudden stand
still the middle of last week by unprece
dented flood*, which swept over Indiana, Ohio
and western Pennsylvania, summarily putting
out of commission Iron and steel works and
blast furnaces along the Cuyahoga, Mahoning,
Shenango, Allegheny and Ohio rivers. Great
est damage, perhaps, was done In the valley
district, particularly at Youngstown, Sharon
and New Castle.
All of the steel works,. blast furnbees, foun
dries and machine shops along the Allegheny
river in Pittsburg were put out of commis
sion, and industries on smallor streams m
western Pennsylvania were flooded. La Belle
Iron Works, Steubenville, 0., on the Ohio river,
and the Mark Mfg. Co., at Zanesville, O.,
on the Muskingum river, and practically every
industry in the Wheeling district were inun
dated. The Carnegie .Steel Co., the American
Sheet and Tin Plate Co., the Jones & Laughlin
Steel Co., the Spang-Chalfant & Co., Ltd., the
Republic Iron & Steel Cb., the Youngstown
Sheet & Tube Co., and the A. M. Byers & Co.,
are included among the larger Interests that
were forced to discontinue operations at one
or more plants.
Affected Industries are emerging from the
chaotic condtions, and within a week or ten
days practically all of the plants ln the flood
zone again will be operating. Much depends,
however, upon the ability of railroads to move
coal, coke and semi-finished steel. One of
the most remarkable features of the entire
situation has been the rapid restoration of
normal conditions.
Demand for all lines of prompt material
will be heavy, as there will be considerable
bridge bifllding, and temporary structures will
require a heavy volume of material. Practi
cally every blast furnace In the flood zone
was forced to bank, and two furnaces in the
valley districts tha£ were on the verge of going
out for a relining, had to be shoveled out
as a result of high waters. Smallor interests,
perhaps, suffered greatest fluacial loss as
they were not 1 prepared to meet he abnormal
conditions, and are not well able to make
necessary repairs. A more detailed report con
cerning the vast extent of the floods and tholr
direct effect upon the markets In general, ap
pears elsewhere in this issue.—The Iron Trade
Review.
Indian Raunner Ducks
f
HERB was never any one va
riety of the feathered tribe
that has enjoyed such a boom
or that has created such an
Interest in thfe poultry world as
has the coming of the Indian Run
ner duck. Many breeders found it
very profitable at first and cleaned
up considerable money out of this
craze. But, from a fancy stand
point Indian Runner ducks have
practically settled to a commercial
basis and the fancy prices are not
so readily paid for either ducks
or eggs as they were a few years
ago. They, like the Belgian Hare
craze, have stocked the country.
But, be it said to their credit, I
believe and am thoroughly con
vinced that they have shown the
poultry world that in this variety
of ducks we have found some
thing that certainly will produce
eggs and can he depended upon,
and have also found something
that will thrive and multiply under
almost any conditions in any sec
tion of the country. The country
could not have been so quickly
stocked and in such great numbers
if they had not been hearty and
prolific. Therefore, I think they
have been one of the greatest ad
ditions fro in a commercial or pro
ducing standpoint that has ever
been given us, and any person with
a good flock of Indian Runner
ducks half-way attended to can
usually have a supply of fresh
eggs always on hand for imme
diate use. This is something that
up until the time of their coming
to us could not be said of any va
riety of chickens or ducks to any
thing like the extent that can be said of the Indian Runner.
We all know that eggs are a staple food and are in demand three
hundred and sixty-five days in the year at some kind of a market price,
and when these ducks supply the immense amount of eggs that they do
almost the year around, I think that we should give them due credit and
feel proud to know that we have discovered among the feathered tribe
such a valuable gift, and while ducks are objectionable to hundreds of
poultry fanciers, there are on the other hand thousands of people who
will keep them because they can be depended upon to produce eggs and
make money for most any one under ordinary care and attention. There
fore, they will always be popular and profitable, and the sooner we
have more of them among us the quicker we will he able to produce more
eggs than ever before.
It is true that it requires considerable feed for ducks, especially
where great egg yields are to he had, but during nine months of the year
in most any southern climate with a large amount of grass and surplus
food that can be produced.on nearly every farm and in many back yards
in the cities, the people who have Indian Runner ducks can count on the
eggs that the ducks will give them at a low cost of production, provided
this surplus food can be had by the ducks. They are great hustlers, and
if given half a chance will find a lot of this waste food that they will
convert into eggs. If a person has a branch or pond on their premises
they can keep ducks very cheaply, and they will thrive and do'well on
much coarser or cheaper food and less expensive food than will chickens.
A good free range or a meadow or grass lot of any kind is an ideal place
for ducks, as they are great foragers, and it is surprising how they will
tonvert tender grass into eggs if given only a small amount of more sub
stantial foods to balance the green food into egg-producing materials.
They like oyster sheh and grit, and it should he supplied to them in
large quantities. The more I see of them the more thoroughly convinced
I am that as egg machines they are hard to beat.
Ducks should not be kept with poultry or allowed to use the same
vessel for drinking as chickens. As a rule ducks are inclined to be
filthy, especially when kept in close quarters, hut where a person has a
good range they can not keep anything on their premises that will be
more profitable than a small flock of Indian Runner ducks. As the
fancy prices that were once paid for ducks have pracftcally ceased to
exist and they have now settled on a commercial basis and at so rea
sonable a price that this alone will always keep them popular, especially
on the average farm. Any family can afford to keep a few ducks almost
from the waste from the table, and would he sure of having fresh eggs
for table use throughout the entire yean especially if they have ducks
hatched at different times so that they can get a uniform supply of eggs
nearly every month.
I believe the day will come when White Indian Runner duck eggs
will bring a premium on our markets, and I am sure one gets more value
for the money spent on duck eggs than he does the average hen eggs
that are sold on the market.
The young ones are so easily raised and mature so quickly, and can
he raised during the hot summer months, until it has made them very
popular over the south, and if it had not been so this country could have
never been so bountifully supplied with these ducks as quickly as it has
been (practically speaking, in three of four years). They can he seen
in nearly every community and are kept by thousands of people, and as I
have said before, different from the
Belgian Hare craze, they have a sta-
pie value and can be successfully
handled by most any one.

QUESTIONS ASKED AND ANSWERED.
QUESTION.
Locust Grove, Ga.
Will you please answer some
questions for me?
1. How to mate Brown L eg-
k horns to raise the best colored fe
males? Also males? *
2. How could I tame a rooster
that' is so wild he looks as if he
never saw a human being - ? He is
so wild he is perfectly useless and
is the nicest young fellow I have.
3. I have a fine Rhode Island
Red used for hatching. She runs
with a Leghorn rooster. If sep
arated, how long will it take her
eggs to get thoroughbred? Will It
be a whole season?
4. What should eggs to eat bring
now delivered to a special customer
in Atlanta once a week? She pays
express. How long should I sell
them *for profit? The hens have to
be fed all they get to eat except
grass in a good size yard.
Thank you for any information
you may give.
MISS J. L. W.
ANSWER.
The way to properly mate exhi
bition Leghorns is to take the light
seal brown females and mate with
a very light colored male bird, too
light for exhibition purposes. This
mating will produce exhibition cdl-
ored females. The dark females
(t<J6 dark for exhibition purposes)
should be mated to a standard col
ored male bird, one with a black
stripe on his neck and saddle. This
mating will produce standard col
ored males, but many of the fe
males will have mottled breast and
mottled legs, but the best exhi
bition males are bred from this col
ored females.
The best way to tame the rooster
mentioned is to put him in a small
pen with a hen and feed a little
apple several times during the day,
and be gentle in handling him.
.Also speak to- him every time he
is fed. v You can tame the wildest
bird in the shortest time in this
way.
Usually after the sixth egg you
can depend on eggs being from the
male bird the hen is mated to.
However, this is not always the
case. I have seen twelve eggs that
were laid by a hen that was sepa
rated from the male and all of
them hatched, showing that it is
possible for twelve eggs to be
fertilized before the male was re
moved. t
Your question four is a hard one
to answer. A customer that buys
eggs regularly, when they are high
and low, should not object paying
80 cents or 35 cents per dozen for
strictly fresh eggs delivered in At
lanta once a week. This price is
about the average where a uniform
number is taken or sold every week
during the year. You will have
to be the judge of how low you can
sell eggs and make a profit where
the hens have to be fed bought
feed.
that has been sick for two weeks, or
maybe nearly three weeks. His trou
ble seems to be in his throat. He
eats well and looks well except his
comb is a little white and at night
has a rattling in his throat, but has
no discharge from the nose nor eyes.
I have him separated from the other
birds, and have given him Conkey’s
Roup cure, P. potash, sylphur, salts,
turpentine and nothing seems to do
much, or if any, gooa. Would you
kindly advise me what you think the
trouble is, and what to do for him.
Any information would be appre
ciated. E. H. H.
ANSWER.
It would be a good idea for you
to give the bird mentioned a large
lump of vaseline. Let him out in
the sunshine where he can take ex
ercise. If this does not cure him
.nothing will. The permanganate of
potash should be used in the drink
ing water and feed mostly whole
corn.
QUESTION.
Vienna, Ga.
Please direct me how to treat
roup. I have several chickens with
it. G. R. M.
ANSWER.
The proper way to treat roup is
to use permanganate of potash in
the drinking water and feed plen
ty of whole corn and wheat, and
remove the chickens from any
draught or damp quarters.
