  1. (continued from previous page)
    The cock is a very useful bird. When a person would be sick a young cock is good to eat and it is easy to get a price for them.
    The duck is very easily fed like the goose. They are kept for the same purpose as the hen. It is very hard to keep them where there is water because they go wild fishing in the water.
