The colds and roup from which flocks suffer during the fall months may be traced to inadequate venti lation, he said. As cold weather approaches, he continued, it is advisable to check the birds again for parasites, both, internal' and external. Infected birds should be treated at once. Birds to be used for breeding purl poses should be blood tested for pullorum disease. When requested, the Stafe Department of Agriculturei will send an expert to make thhse tests for poultry men.. Winter grazing crops should be sown in October, Dearstyne said to provide a source of green feed for the flock during the winter.
