Mr Dukes said to have eggs when eggs were , high you must, get them from the pullet and not the hen, and this pullet must have good houses to stay in. The housing is one of the most.rmportant things in egg produc tion. Every chicken house should be built so that everything can, be taken out .and " cleaned. Mr. Dukes empha sized the fact that you can't "expect a hen to lay her best when fed on corn alone, that she must be fed a balanced feed to help her produce the egg, along with plenty' of green feed. 1 , Diseases; Prevention. '''' In discussing the diseases of .poul try, Mr, Dukes said the best way ,to cure a disease- Is to prevent it. He took up sore hfi&d as the" first disease and said if a chicken gets : sick to either kill it .or pen" it'off " to itself. Sore head can be cured by using Iodine, but be careful about getting in the eyes, not to pour' on, but use a mop. Mr. Dukes 'also gave a preven tative for sore head, which is to-use 3 pounds of stflphur to 100 pounds of dry mash. The next disease taken up was scaley legs and Mr. Dukes gave as a cure for this disease a sim ple remedy of one-half part of keTo sine and one-half part of lard and rub on legs s daily. ; Cholera, tho ? most dreaded disease of poultry, was also discussed and a preventative also given,' using perfjiangonate potash in the drinking water, -using only the amount that will stay on a dime In a gallon of water, This remedy would also prevent roupe. .
