can have access to them at all
times.
There is no special feed value
that. chickens can get by following
cows that have been fed on cotton
seed hulls and meal. They would
have to have an additional feed, and
only the exercise they get would be
worth anything to them. 1t is best
to yard your chickens to themselves

Rome, Ga.
I lost a fine Barred Plymouth Rock
hen this morning. She died quick
after eating her morning feed, which
was of wheat only, and was taking
a dust bath at the time of her death,
just fell over on one side and fluttered
so it excited chickens near her She
was eighteen months old and rea-
sonably fat. Upon examination I
found her liver full of white specks
or spots from the size of the head of
a pin up to an ordinary shirt but

you kindly give me your views re-
: lating to the cause of the enlarge
ment and disease in this case? Also,

Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1912-10-11
ANSWER.

Your hen evidently died from apo
pleXy, and the trouble was probably
brought about from the disordered
liver. A great many diseases among
chickens, as well as people, are caused
from the liver being out of condition.
Tt would he best to change their feed,
and give some good liver medicine,
either black draught stock powders
or Barker's condition powders in their
soft feed every other day to the bal
ance of your flock as some of the 9TH
ers are probably in the same fix.
Above all things. see that your chick
ems get a sufficient supply of fresh,
clean water, and put a piece of cop
peras the size of the end of your
thumb in their drinking water three
times a week.

Will appreciate it if you can give
me a remedy for them.
Nf A. T. H.
ANSWER.
1t will be impossible for me to tell
you what is the cause of the death
rate among your chickens, unless
you go mot details more fully. You
do not state what age they are.
how you are feeding, how they are
housed, but from general discrip-
tion given it is unnatural for chick
ems that have been properly fed and
are from good breeding stock to die
in the way yours have, unless they
are infested with insects. l am in
clined to believe that this is the
trouble with your chickens. iB98k-
anime your poultry house thorough
ly and see if it is not infested with
mites, or possibly Texas fleas, and
see If the chickens are not covered
with lice If so, you will have to
dip your chickens and paint your
roost with a thin solution of tar and
kerosene oil. With good feed and
free from insects your chickens
should thrive. AS a rule chickens
do not need much medicine. Good
feed and If kept free from insects
is the best medicine that you can
give.

QUESTION.


Monroe, Ga.
Am an old subscriber to The
Journal, and read all your poultry
articles. Would thank you to give
me some advice as to proper con-
struction of dry mash hopper that
will feed automatically and not al
low for too much waste Where can
/ buy them ready made? Do chick
ems thrive behind milch COWS fed al
together on cotton seed meal and
hulls? SUBSCRIBER.
ANSWER.
The Hightower Box factory, At
lanta, Ca, make a splendid dry
mash hopper that they sell for 81.
You can get one of these, see how
easy il is to construct and make in
a rough way as many as you wish.
The feed hopper is made by two
Ike planks together in the shape of
V about four to six
feet in length. The pieces
for each end Of the trough (cut
with a bevel) six inches for the
front and twelve inches for the rear
tackled on each end of the trough
and this nailed to the side of the
poultry house, the side of the house
answering as a back for the trough.
A hinged door Of laths nailed three
inches apart and hinged to the side
of the house will answer as a cover
for the trough and keep the chickens
out of it, but win allow them to
reach the food through the lattice
door, and in this way dry feed is
always before them. The door can
be raised when TIE trough is being
filled. This makes the cheapest and
best feed hopper I know of. This is
the kind of feed hopper that the
Hightower Box factory sells. but
they are nicely made up with a back
