Out of the breeding season geese flock together in peace and unity, and it‘is extremely difï¬cult for even the expert to distinguish the sexes. (Most breeders mark the old geese with leg bands and punch holes in the “eb of the foot as a temporary mark on their young.) The females are a 'little shorter and slimmer in the neck and lower and deeper in the body, the latter traits being clearly in evidence even at this early date and becoming accentuated as the laying season approaches. When that time arrives the ganders will leave no one in any doubt as to the num- ber of them. Their duty is to pro- tmt the gooSe and her nests and they take up their responsibility with a Deal and a noise worthy of a bet- ter cause. A little observation on a mild day will Show them. even now. spitting-,or hissing at the othâ€" er animals on the farm, a lownï¬s of conduct rarely indulged in by the Geese are. of all fowl, the most peculiar and human in their likes and dislikes. rI‘houg-h oftentimes amelnd- able to reason, they inï¬nitely prefer to manage their matrimonial affairs themselves, and sometimes resist all inducetnents to depart from .their choice. This: is especialLy true in the case of old and attached Lcoup- les, whilst ganders in their ï¬rst year sometimes absolutely refuse to mate at all. In view of these difï¬culties, there- fore, if there are any changes to be maJdc in the family, .it is none too soon to make a start. At no period of the year' is a little extra care and attention in the poul- try yard more proï¬tably expended than in the early spring, and certain- ly. no class of poultry repays the' owner for the same more noticeably than do geese.
