FARM POULTRY SUFFERS FROM WIIfTER DISEASES RaJAlgh. Dec. 27.?Poultry suffers from colds and associated troubles In winter Just as do human beings but a little care and doctoring will help to keep down the heavy annnal toll that these diseases exact from North Carolina poultrymen. According to. Dr. B. F. Kaupp, head of the poultry department at State College, the birds suffer most from diseases of the re spiratory tract In cold weather. Common colds result from the bird* becoming wet or chilled because off poor housing, quick changes in wea ther or cracks in the house permitting a draft to blqjr on the birds. One or the signs of Jhla disease Is a discharge from the noes. Any bird so affected should be immediately removed from the flock states Dr. Kaupp, because the discharge will contaminate the drinking water and give the diseana t o the other birds. In the case oC colds, the nose should be cleared out by syringing with a 10 percent solu tion of argyrol or a purple solution of permanganate of potash. In thu case of roup where there is a stink ing discharge, pare iodine should be used In the syringe and the bird treat ed morning and night until cured. Weak pallets come from crowding In the summer and they must have proper feed and care in the laying pens. Most of them will develop sore head even In a new house. Than* pimples should be greased with car bollzed vaseline, roupzen or sulphur mixed with vaseline or lodex. Sore eyes Is another familiar win ter time trouble. Hie eyes need to be swabbed out. states Dr. Kaupp, and a drop of a 10 percent solution at argyrol or a one percent solution off sulphate ot lino placed la the eye twice each day. Canker or dfphtheritis It a winter disease which attacks the month. Ik forms g spot where the sore Is cow ered with a cheesy material. Scrap# this off. states Dr. Kaupp, and nan on it a canker pencil, pare Iodine or pow dered chlorate of potash, once each day until the sore has cored. Tuesday, gueets ot Mr. sad Mrs. W F.
