GAPEs IN CHICKENS.
An ounce OF preventive is better
than Il pound Of cure," is IN old
adage, and with regard to this fatal
disease if a spoonful Of sulphur is
mixed two or three times q week
into two quarts Of dough and fed
to tho poultry, there viii be no need
OF medicine administered to Lill the
worns in the windpipe. 1t has an
other beneficial effect it prevents
the chicks from becoming lousy, and
nothing is more detrimental 10 the
well-doing of fowl than lice. |
formerly was much troubled with
both gapes and lice, but | find sui
phur a I cure for both evils, and
for the past three years have had no
trouble in raising them. My theory
IN regard to the gapos is that the
lar18 Of various insects are picked
up and eaten, the warmth of the
stomach OF course matches the eggs
and they are allowed full time to
grow, and at last fairly choke the
breath OF the fowl. BY an occa-
sional dose OF sulphur the stomach
is cleansed Of them, and they pass

SNINE IN THE EAltNlAkD,
The plan Of allowing pigs to run
III a large open manure yard and
tread straw into manure answers
better for young or growing pigs
than for those that are faCtcninc.
Neither is it inconsistent with the
best modern methods of making
and preserving manure for while
thoro is not Il better understood fact
IN philosophy than that animals
must be kept still and quiet during
the process Of fatteninF, and must
have their rambling instints re-
strained, yet with animals which are
young and growing a very different
curse must be adopted. Ii much
confined they will get misshapon
and rlckety, will lose the bloom OF
health and yigor and remain small
in size and tender ii constitution.
Exercise is as necessary for them as
it is for horses, and the manure
heap in the yard will be benefited
