If the disease breaks out you will notice it at first as small wart like knots on the ccrr.b and wattles. As soon a? these, knots are noticed, paint the comb and wattles of the af fected chickens with -iodine and give raise a good bird as it does a tnongrel," 11 as the dual purpose varieties have been bred to lay more eggs and het ter ones, and to carry more meat, and this of the best quality and so distrib uted over the frame of the "bird that it does not throw him out of poise. In other words, using care to develop plenty of breast-meat and at the same time looking after stamina. The Mediterranean varieties or egg machines have been bred along lines to produce more and better eggs, and there has been a truly wonderful de velopmcnt in the laying qualities as there are any number of flocks that are averaging over 200 eggs a year, and we know tfcat at the recent In ternational Laying Contest held at Delaware College a little White -Leghorn hen laid 314 eggs in 365 days, thus earning her name "Lady Eglan-. will cure all cases if taken in time. To get "rid of mites, spray pure ker osene oil Or a 5 per cent solution of 'Kceso Dip No. 1, and to kill lice dip the chickens in a 1 per tent so lution of Kreso Dip No. 1. V To forestall an outbreak of cholera or its neighbor, diarrhoea, clean up and disinfect with a 5 per cent Kreso Dip No. 1 whitewash. If birds are not very bad, treat with a teaspoon ful of Castor oil with One drop of car bolic acid in .it. Give this daily for two das. If this gives no relief, the best way then to control the disease is to . treat with the hatchet arid fire. What to Do for Roup THE first thing to do in case, of roup is to isolate all ailing f owls. tine, and breaking all past records, promptly disinfect runs and buildings bne was not alone in this contest, as . with a 5 per cent solution of carbolic there were any number of hens m the cidf and whitewash all woodwork, same contest that were ever crowd- walls, etc., with warm whitewash car ing her So this is conclusive evi- fying 5 per cent carbolic acid, dence that the men who have been Any fowl showing heavy swelling breeding purebred poultry yrs o iace or throat had better be killed have not been doing it in a haphazard At nftc. .Snd burned or buried deeo. They would be worthless as breeders even if apparently cured. way or they never could have accom phshed such wonderful results. By this kind of Careful breeding'wa have birds that carry more meat of the most tender, Juicy kind, and 'that lay many more eggs in a year.
