April, May and June there were re-
ported TO this office from 1917 cities Of
the second, third and fourth classes
/ $50 deaths For the preceding quar-
ter reports were received from only
% cities. During the fourth quarter
of last year 81 cities failed To make
this report OF the total deaths re-
ported, 1,l0S were males, S59 fe-
males, and % with no sex given. This
gives a male excess Of 249. Nine hun
dred and nnety-three were married,
Two hundred and seventy deaths were
reported from heart disease and
drOpsy ia were from diseases
of the nervous system; l49 were
caused by pulmonary tuberculo-
sis; 81 We're due to other tuber-
cuar diseases; 1919 resulting from
pneumonia; 81 from diarfheal dis
eases; 80 from cancer and tumor;
100 from diseases Of the urinary sys.
TEN; II from diphtheria; 80 from ty.
phoid fever; II from whoOpng cough;
five from scarlet fever; IS from
measles; 1873 from old age, and 651
from other causes not classified. With
an aggregate population in these 10
cities of 624 $40 the annual rate is
12.7l. As compared with the rate for
the fourth quarter Of last year OF
1922 and also the rate for the first
quarter of this year Of 1922, We find
that n much more favorable condition
seems to prevail. II is possible that
the seasonal variation would account
for this change in the mortality rate.
Nearly every city in Wisconsin OBJ

they are to be produced. The strong
est chicks are always produced from
vigorous parents. In setting the hens
it is customary TO use eggs from any
source whence they can be produced,
but the result is always mixed lot OF
chicks. some weak, some strong, some
large. some small, no uniformity exist
ing among them in any respect. 1t is
very important TO use eggs only from
stock that is healthy, strong and vigor-
Gus. If attention is given to this mat
ter there will be smaller loss among
the breeds, and larger proportion Of
chicks will result. Endeavor always
TO secure eggs that are fresh, but let
them be from healthy stock. A little
care at the beginning may prevent
many annoyances in caring for the
young chicks.

those hatched early, as they thrive bet

WASTING TINE WITH DISEASES

When contagious diseases appear in
a flock Of fowls there is entailed upon
the farmer q heavy loss Of time in try
ing to cure them. Cases are known
where the owners of fowls have devOt-
ed weeks to handling them, the birds
not really being worth the cost OF the
cure, even il success is the result. ROup
is disease that may remain for
months, some forms being incurable as
tuberculosis. Scrofula is also liable TO
occur a. a disease in flock, and to per-
nit such birds TO exist is to incur the
liability OF having the disease trans
mitted to succeeding generations as
well a. becoming contagious. 1t is
cheaper and better to obtain other
fowls, irst destroying those in the yard.
When tumors appear they indicate a
diseased condition of the fowls, which
places them outside of the uses OF the
farmer. TumOrs, warts, sores and
other affections of the skin are as Pc
culiar to fowls as they are to
some human individuals, and come
from the same causes, being also as diff
ficult TO cure. Even if cures are effect
ed it is seldom that the birds again
prove satisfactory. Sometimes one is
tempted to save valuable pure-bred
fowl, if possible, but it is wasted time
and labor, as well as disagreeable, to
handle birds that sell by the pound in
market.
