For adult fowls affected with worms
try one tablespoonful of oil Of turpen-

olive or sweet oil. This remedy should
be given after the bird has been fast

best given by introducing it directly

can be placed in an ordinary hard

attached to same. The dose may be
repeated in two or three days if neces-
sary. Thoroughly disinfect all drop
