WATERING POULTRY.

1t is the belief of the writer that
many Of the diseases incident to poul-
try are due to neglect in providing
them with water; particularly do j
believe such to be the case, In the ma
jority of instances where chicken
cholera prevails. The omission TO
furnish fowls, with suitable water is
one of the worst features of cruelty to
animals. 1t is q neglect that is deci-
dedly adverse to success. hence tends
to diminish individual fancyfor fowls,
works detriment to poultry interests.
Those whom we occasionally hear say
that there !" no profit in poultry" are
not qualified to have the management
of the same, and in their attentions
may be classed with thiftloss and ne.
elected parties who keep fowls that
get drink when 1t rains.-Fanessys'
