Those who own canaries find them
at this time of the year suffering
from rheumatism, which is caused by
standing on wet perches. A special
ist in bird diseases says that birds
suffer terribly from the carelessness
of those who clean the cases.
Women will wash out cage and
neglect to thoroughly dry 1t. The
perch is left damp, and the bird,
standing on it, at once takes on
rheumatism, which spreads through
the body.
A little Inflammation starts in the
feet, and this is apt to result in a
tiny abscess Which is torture to the
bird.
The specialist tells women that the
perches should be scraped and then
rubbed with dry cloth instead of
being washed each time. If they are
washed they should be dried in the
oven before being put back in the
cage.
