Au outatandtM feature bf the I; -I-, glan farming la the nmall uize <> thfarms. More than hall' of th< I'.-l.;-..n farms are less than tin acre in size. One cuubo of small farms in Belgium is a law prohibiting tho leaving by any man of all his property to one child, declares Wallaces’ Farmer, tt is required that tho property bo divided among his children.

Why Is Belgian land so high'' I! ■■ not so fertile as much of the nd England or Germany, yet is nun e va! uablo because there are some half mil lion Belgians who have the :.biln to make laud bear Inter'-, t on the investment. They are able to do this because they work hard and are satisfied with little Another reason for tho high price of land is the keen competition for it. Because of the small pieces into which it is divided land is constantly on the market and there are always farm hands and renters who are eager to own a piece of land for themselves, and so the price is bid up to the limit. GIVES THEM THE WILD FLAVOR Housekeeper Has Thought Out Par tlcularly Clever Way of Cocking the Domestic Duck. “I can cook the domestic duck so that you would think it was mallard!' , declared a clever little houxekeepet the other day. . “At any raw, you would think it was mallard if you knew the dellciou 1 and peculiar flavor of that particular bird well enough to recognize it. “people say that this characteristic flavor is due to the fact that mallard feeds on wild celery. Well, naturally, when 1 huy ducks in th® market it is too late to put them on a diet in the ordinary sense. “But If I can't feed them while they’re alive, i cun f title is the v-ay 1 mum - ■ t. of stuffing them in the or<|iuary way, I . take stalks 01 celery v. hicii J cut th< length of the bird's inside j’.casuri' "I pvt these stalks in ‘wit : thI dressin; ought to grow,’ nnti I t l '-.’ pl. re the duck In the rt t.-tt iu. : instead of putting water in th ’> <, I i pour in a pint bottle ' priced Hautern® Mr.yb T-a la’l*miter l”i the Sant but not nm *it m * Im I you will th* r© yonr i must have a pr<' > Intima- - ac mint I anco « .th the flavor of mallard."
