fence material. Quality and designs
have improved with the years but the
basic material holds its own.

CURE FOR SOREHEAD
One of our subscribers has report
ed to us a cure for sorehead among
fowls wh'ch is prevalent at this time.
The remedy is as follov^^s: five drops
of carbolic acid to,one ounce of lard
or other grease. Apply this to the
sore spot on the fowl, and in a few
days no tr?.ce of the disease can be
seen. If you have chickens v/ith the
sorehead, try this and v. atch the re
sult.
