Goose moat Is nutri tions and palatable and not greasy when properly cooked, and an exten sion of goose raising in the regions of cheap land where pasturage is* abundant is a suggested source of cheaper meat. Oeese are raised chiefly in the South and middle West, Kentucky, Tennes see, Missouri and Arkansas being the chief supply sources. During the dec ade ending in 1910 the total number of geese declined 22 per cent, largely be cause of the lack of cheap pasture and the limited demand for goose feathers and goose flesh The Toulouse, Emden, Chinese and African are the most popular Ameri can breeds of geese, the first two greatly leading the others. Occasion ally the eggs are used for cooking, bat generally geese are kept only for meat and feather production. Practically all the geese in this country are raised In small flocks on general farms, some men making a specialty of collecting large numbers of geese and fatten ing them for a few weeks before they are killed. As grass makes up the bulk of feed for geese, it la doubt ful whether it pays to raise them un less good grass range Is available dur ing the summer. A pool of water for bathing and recreational purposes Is also a desirable feature. The market for geese Is not so fen eral as for chickens. This point should be considered in undertaking the Fals ing of geese. The demand and tb4 price paid for geese are usually good In sections where goose fattening la conducted on a large scale. Oeese are hardy birds and need shel ter only in the worst weather. An empty shed or an old barn usually is satisfactory for this purpose. From 4 to 25 geese may be kept on an acre of land, although under most condi tions ten Is a fair average. Wherever possible the geese should have free Toulouse Goose. range during the grass season South ern plantation o\\ ners keep geese to kill the weeds in the cotton fields The eggs mav he hatched bv either hens or geese Some bleeders prefer to raise all the goslings under hens, as geese sometimes become difficult to manage when allowed to hatch and rear their joung The peiiod of In cubation of goose eggs varies from 28 to 30 davs Goslings do not need food until they are twenty-four to thirty-six hours old, when they should be fed one of thf mashes recommended for chickens or goslings, or mash or dough of two thirds shorts (middlings) and one-third cornraeal, which can be made of equal parts shorts and cornmeal, with 5 per cent of beef scrap added after the goslings are six weeks old. Bread and milk make an excellent feed for young goslings. line grit or sharp sand should also be available in cold weather. Most geese breeders do not confine their geese for fattening, but feed them freely a few weeks on a fattening ration before they are to be marketed. The geese may bo confined for two or three weeks and fattened, but some green feed or \egetables should be added to the ration.

A. Duncan, a well-known carpenter, who lives at 916 A Avenue West, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, when he called at Boy son's Drug Store, Cedar Rapids, a few days ago. "Yes, sir, I was about as bad off as a man ever gets," continued Mr. Duncan. "I had such an awful case of rheumatism that I couldn't get about, had to give up my work alto gether and take to my bed. My hands and fingers drew up so bad that I was unable to use them and the pains in my hands were almost un bearable.

"When several of my friends re commended Tanlac to me I had such little confidence in medicine that I paid no attention to them at first, but finally I made up my mind to give it a trial. Well, sir, it was one of the greatest surprises of my life when I began to improve and by the time I had taken five bottles all traces of my troubles had left me. I am now deeply thankful to my friends for telling me about Tanlac, for I honestly believe that if it hadn't been for this medicine I wouldn't be alive today. I haven't a sign of rheumatism and the neuritis has dis appeared entirely from the back of my neck. My kidneys are in fine condition and the pains in my back have all gone. I am built up in every way, have gained ten pounds in weight and am so strong and healthy that I feel like my old self again. I never grow tired of praising Tanlac and it is a real pleasure for me to give this statement and tell the people what I think of this medicine."

When one suffers the tortures of an aching back, relief is eagerly sought for. There are many remedies today that relieve, but do not cure. Doan's Kidney Pills have brought lasting results to thousands. Here is Bemidji evidence of their merit. Mrs. J. P. Pogue, 521 Fourth St., says: "I had dull pains in my back and hips for a long time. My kid neys acted irregularly and I always felt worse after I exerted my3elf. My feet would swell and my head ached. I tried different kinds of remedies without relief. I got Doan's Kidney Pills at Barker's Drug Store and began using them. Two boxes cured me and I have had no return of the trouble."
