there was discovery in medical science

Raising Broilers in Florida.

Under the above heading two articles
have recently appeared in the agricultu-
raj press. Neither of theparties have had
experience according to their own say so,
and one would suppose they had given
the subject but little thought, and inves-
tigated it still less. One says they can
not be raised with profit, and the other
that the prices in the home market will
not Justify. The one gives it as a reason
why they cannot be raised prOfitably be-
cause the hawks, polecats, and 'pOssums
are so troublesome at that time.
Does he suppose that on the great brOil
er farms they take chances Of any ami
mails invading their chicken rOOsts?
Even rats are Fenced out most effectually.
If he expects to raise poultry for any use,
and does not protect himself from such
possibilities, he had better not venture
too heavy, for the profits will likely beOn
the wrong side 1t is Just here that many
make mistake. They see parties who
make every branch of poultry pay, and
they don't see why they can't. 1t is just
because they do not attend to details.
They don't do this, only a small thing,
perhaps, and would not take but a min
ute or two and that is why they do not
do it because it is small. IfyOu expectto
make a success with poultry these small
things must be attended to.
He further says (speaking of HammOn-
ton, IN. J.) they do not keep hens but
Duy the eggs they setO hatch. Yes, and
they are now seeing the folly of havingto
depend on eggs they buy, and all that
can are preparing to keep stock for that
purpose.
Now as to home market, of which the
second letter speaks, he doubts if hotels
would pay a price that would Justify with
the market full of western broilers selling
at eighteen cents per pound. If there is
a tirst-class hotel in this state that would
place such stock before its guests and call
them brOiers, | am mistaken. Further
more, do not think they are shipped or
marketed as broilers The Chicago mar
ket on February 18th quotes small broiI-
ers at $4.3O per dozen large at $5 And
these are the smallest quotations for the
year The small broiIers would weigh
about three-quarterS and the large ones
one and a quarter to one and d half
pounds. In either case it was equal to
from forty to fifty cents per pound.
1t is not at all likely that the brOiler
raisers would seek a market in Jackson
Vile at eighteen cents, when they were
worth twice or three times as much at
home. guess they were little, old, dried
up hens you saw and the market man was
trying to sell them to you forbrOilers. He
wanted to keep com petition down, know
ing you were in the poultry business. In
another number we will continue the sub
je"t and try to OcOnvince parties that brOil-
ers can be raised in Florida and marketed
here as profitably as any other place in
this country.

'"This is most liable to attack chickens
under two weeks old and fowls during in
cubation, unless one is careful as to diet
given. In chickens scalded milk as
drink, keeping water from them, will
usually correct the evil, but sometimes it
seems to visit the yards to a degree al
most equivalent to cholera.
The discharges resemble oil and snuff
mixed with green streaks throughit. The
fowl shows great exhaustion and moves
about to all appearance as if no muscles
were moved except those of the legs.

With young chicks, il the scalded milk

that it was getting iron and consequent

NEW YORK, Oct. ~ Judge Wallace.
in the United States court yesterday, handed
down decision in an action brought by
William r. Spies against the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois railroad, Diminishing the
action with costs. The complainant was the
holder Of income bonds of the road He al
legged that the ponds we're executed in 1887
by the defen liant, who pledged the next
earnings Of the railway, as it then existed
as security for the pay ment of the princi-
pal Of tie bonds and interest.
This agreen ent was carried out
until September, les5, when the
directors of the road, as alleged, "conspired
to fraudulently compel the holders of the in
come bonds TO surrender them for consul
bonds subsequently created" The ans wsr of
the defendant denied the allegation of
fraud. The rea son of the dismissal was tn at.
though the bonds should have been met as
above provided, the complainant having al
legged fraud, he cannot support his complaint
upon any other ground The judge holds the
directors guilt 50 of any attempt TO defraud,
being simply n istaken as to their duties.
