ERADICATE THE cHIcKENPox
Fowls Have Recovered With
out Treatment.

Chickenpox, sometimes called sore
head, is a disease which will be prov
alent at this time of the year among

cautions are taken, says the Kansas
Industrialist. 1t 10 q contagious dis
ease, and spreads very rapidly among
the flock when 1t once gets Roadway.
It seems to affect the cockerels more
than the pullets. Because Of Its ap-
pearance on the comb and face Of
the bird 1t should not be difacult
matter to eradicate the disease.
symptoms.-Thed disease appears on
the comb, face and wattles Of the bird
in the form Of yellowish nodules.
varying in size from pin head to one
fourth of an inch in diameter. These
nodules increase in size and turn dark
red. The disease should be treated
as soon as the first nodules are
noticed. It is not always fatal and
fowls have been known to recover
without any treatment. Insanitary
conditions and dampness seem to
cause the disease.
Treatment.-As it is a contagious
disease, the affected birds should be
removed from the flock Immediately.
II the nodules are removed with a
sharp knife, and the affected parts are
treated with carbolated vaseline, the
birds should recover in few days.
If the case is very far advanced the
sick fowls should be given few
grains each of sulphur and cream OF
tartar three times day, and oxide
of zinc ointment should be applied to
the affected parts twice day. The
latter treatment is recommended by
Doctor Lehman, and has proved sat
isfactory remedy.

PITIFuL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"A few days after birth we noticed
an infamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have stitch of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He is
a very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh so rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment.
mot until commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like, as we dared not
wash him, and I had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came of, and left him entirely
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. l don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura Rem
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such pitiful sight. He would
fuss until I would treat him, they
seemed to relieve him so much. Cuti.
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves ana the result they quick.

KEEPING A PoULTY RECORD

lures 10 Of Great Assistance
to Chicken Raiser.
(By r. d. sCHMIDT.)

(By r. d. sCHMIDT.)
One of the greatest needs Of most
poultry keepers is definite record
of expenditures and receipts. In too
few cases does the owner of poultry
flock actually know whether his fowls
have been an expense to him or have
paid a profit. This is perhaps truer
in regard to poultry than with most
other branches Of animal industry,
because of the facts that both ex-
penditures and receipts are spread
over the entire year and are individ-
ually small, that large part Of the
product is used at home, and that the
poultry keeping is incidental to the
other farm work.
