ANSWER.


l had several articles last fall on
washing fowls for show purposes and
am sorry you missed getting these.
The proper way to wash fowls for
this purpose is to have three tubs
Of water, each holding about ten gall
Ions. An ordinary tin wash tub
is best for this purpose. The first
water should be tepid water and to
ten gallons of water should be added
a scent package of Pearline. This
will soften the water and will en-
able you to get the dirt out of the
feathers thoroughly: IN addition. to
this, II you wish to do so you can
use white Ivory soap, but it is not
absolutely necessary. One person
should hold the chicken in the water
while the other washes It Thoroughly
by rubbing the feathers gently be-
tween the hands the same as you
would a piece of cloth of any kind. II
the feathers are thoroughly wet 1t is
no trouble to get all OF the dirt out

Your hens are evidently getting
something that does not agree with
them, or they have possibly been
TOO rat and are effected with liver
trouble. 1t would be hard for me
10 tell what is the direct cause
AT this season of the year hens
that have been too highly fed
through the spring will OCCASION
ally die from no apparent cause
ana In most cases where an exani-
nation is made you will find the
llVer very much enlarged, showing
tnat 1t is badly out of condition
ana they do not digest their food
properly. A hen, when Ia this Ak
IL she gets one good dose of star-
nant water which is often found IN
little puddles in the poultry ward.
1t Is almost sure death to her. or
she gets any sour feed Ar is
likely to do the same thing. They
should be made to scratch in deem
