Chicken Cholera.

Through your many correspondents could

subscriber. MRS. l. u " HlTE.
White Spring Fla.
There are a great many remedies given
for chicken cholera, most Of which are of
little value, especially if the disease is al
lowed TO take much OF hold in the yard.
The fowl that has it badly had better be
killed at once and buried.
But if taken in time it is possible to cure
q good many cases by the use of Squibbs
Cholera Mixture, which is good for man or
beast. Five TO ten drops given to each fowl
every three hours will oftentimes cure.
Fowls under treatment should be kept
seperate. In their drinking vessel holding
about pint teaspoonful of Fowlers Solu-
ton of Arsenic is usually beneficial. The
third day If the fowls surviyel give dose
of castor oil with a few drops of rurpen-
tine.

tested remedy to give it.

We have no knowledge Of any English
walnuts grown to perfection in any part Of

any paintings OF such We should be glad to

Theoretically, we see no reason why they
could not be grown if fresh seeds were
planted at the proper time-in the fall-in
soil having fertility sufficient to grow them.
In thin soil uneuriched or uncultivated tho
growth of all nut trees are necessarily very
slow and the effort to grow them would be

Now, that the breeders are overstocked,
is the time to buy from them. Never buy
pure breeds of fowls in the spring, as they
scarce and prices ara high. 1t is almost i'm
possible to procure pullets in the spring. as
the majority Of poultrynen sell off nearly
all OF their surplus before winter comes .,
IN order to AVOID keeping them and to Sc
cure plenty Of room for their regular breed
ing stock: hence, they viii sell at reduc-
ton from now To December. Il is rule tc
buy eggs in the spring and fowls in the fall.
The cheapest plan is to buy the fowl,. as
they will enable you to become well stocked

cost will be materially isssened.
