Probably Cold.

A subscriber in Kentucky says
her chickens have peculiar dis
ease and asks for a remedy. She
says they eat heartily but stretch
their necks as though they have
difficulty in swallowing their food
Some of her hens have a rafting in
their throats, though they appear
to be wlel otherwise,
The fowls probably have colds
which cause the trouble, but those
that stretch out their necks may
have timber neck, disease CEASED
by maggots which sather in the
crops. A few doses of turpentine
daily for a week will give relief,
and for colds few days confine-
ment in warm rooms should cure
them. This is the season of the
year when colds are most prevalent,
and we should watch our fowls with
the greatest care.

Importance of Cleanliness.

The lack of sanitary conditions
about the poultry houses and yards
is the greatest factor in the trans
mission of diseases. The location of
the poultry plant and its drainage
are very important. Dampness in
the poultry house and mud in the
yards are most unfavorable condi-
tons for poultry raising. The proper
amount of space and ventilation in
the houses should be carefully CON
sidered. Cleanliness is an essential
sanitary condition, and accumuIa-
tons of excrement lying about the
houses are means for transmission
of the most deadly diseases. These
excrements, when in a moist condi-
ton in warm house, harbor the
parasites and bacteria which may

flock.
