POULTRY RAISERS GET VALUA.
BILE POINTERS
statesman

COuSLduC care III OfQer TO prevent
the beginning of an epidemic amone
the poultry flocks of the state is the
warning which John F. Nicholson
bacteriologist at Moscow, has issued
in a recent bulletin to the farmer and
to the chicken raiser of Idaho. He
says that there are many diseases
which often break o t among the
flocks of a farmer without his knowl-
ing where they came from or wheth-
er they are in the least contagious
and likely to affect his other fowls.
Most of these diseases are contagious
and spread like wildfire through a
flock of chickens, destroying their
value in the market and causing the
grower a loss that few can afford to
stand.
Sick Chicken no Good
A sick chicken is valueless, the
expert points out, either for food or
for any other purpose, yet it costs
quite a good deal to raise the fowl
to the point where it will meet a
steady demand on the market. The
authority advises grabbing the sick
fowl by the head and holding it un"
der water in a solution for the man
ufacture of which he gives a receipt.
The sneezing, kicking, struggling
chicken i'm the mad endeavor to
break away from the hand that holds
it will get some of the solution down
its throat and will cure itself, he ar,
CUES.
Tells Growers to Watch
He believes, however, that an
ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure and he warns the grower that
the larger number of the diseases
which affect chickens are those which
can be prevented by the diligence of
the farmer or poultryman. He says
that drafts, overcrowding and bad
ventilation are the principle causes
of trouble on chicken ranches and
that, these reasons for colds once
done away with, a great deal of the
loss through disease is warder off.
Some Simple Remedies
Among other things, he says:
Prepare a solution of 2 per cent
permanganate of potash, by d~issolv.
ing 2 ounces of the permanganate
crystals (bought at any drug. store
at about 80 cents per pound) in
three quarts of water.
Keep this solution always on
hand and when a bird shows the
signs of nose or throat trouble,
enough of the solution to al
low the head of the bird to be sub
merged and put the sick birds head
under it until it nearly chokes. Re-
move the birds head from the LIQUID
and allow it to sneeze and sputter,
the liquid into all the air pas
Try Over Again
Repeat thi sthree times before
you let the bird go, and repeat it
a day until the bird no longer
shows signs of the disease. The OPP

 It was but a few minutes to ten cast pedestrians along Main street near Congress were startled by the piercing cries .of a voice accompanied by the grinding, bumping crunch of a, heavy car coming down the steep hillside. A Main street car had just passed north and another crowded one bound south operated by Motorman z '. H. Giles With Conductor c. J. Walsh had stopped at the intersection to let off passengers ..ssi
 For moment all eyes were rivetted upon the oncoming mon ster, then with all power Giles endeavored- to pull his car out of the way. His. efforts were successful as far as the saving of his human freight was concerned. but in what seemed to be the fraction of second the descending car had COW cred the Intervening distance and striking the rear end Of the obstruct- ing car lifted it bodily from. the tracks and forced it towards the easterly curb, at the same time tearing away portions of the running-board and rear vestibule. -.5s.

Bystanders upon the sidewalk scattered like chaff be- fore a wind. Passengers upon the South Main car jumped as they saw the danger and for a moment after the ear-splitting crash panden oniun1 reigned- The groans of the injured were pitiful and immediate calls were made for the surgeons from the emer- gency hospital and wrecking cars from traction headquarters were responded to in force.
