Il ried on-Xery largely in this
section of the country. From
various causes, people have never
kept pigeons in large focks or gone
into the business very extensively
in this immediate territory. Nearly
all pigeons that are kept in the
south are usually in very small
flocks, are given their liberty to
go at will and are practically pro-
duced on waste food that would not
be consumed unless the pigeons
did get it and convert it into
squads. OF course there are a few
breeders in the cities who keep
their pigeons confined and they are
compelled to do so to protect them.
These pigeons have to be fed and
the high price of feed keeps many
people from going extensively into
this business, as the price of mar
ket squads does not warrant buy

The best remedy for white diar-
rhoea Is to feed your chickens on
food that will not produce It, or to
keep them at a temperature in the
brooder, not too hot or too cold. I do
not think there is any cure for 1t.
prevention is the only thing, and it
can be had by using the proper food
which is commercial chick feed for
the first ten days of their lives.
However, the Conkey people have a
preparation, sold by all seed dealers
that they recommend highly for this
purpose.

ANSWER

Salty. grease will kill the little
fieas, and about the only thing that
will kill them is salt in some form.
If they inhabit place that is dusty
where these feas raise, they will
soon get back on the chickens. Salt
should be sprinkled around these
dusty places A flea will not breed
in dampness, and salt is fatal to
them.

QUESTIONS ASKED An
Yours very truly,
(TO BE CONTINUED.

Palph, ALIAS I have learned
many important points on poultry
raising through your columns. now
come asking for help. Can you tell
me the trouble with my little chick
ems? They appear perfectly well. when
they suddenly fail over and begin to
fIutter as If they were suffering i'm
mensely, and in less time than a
minute they are dead Thinking they
might have swallowed some poison
Gus insects, 1 have opened them and
find nothing OF the kind. 1 feed them
on corn chops. Sometimes 1 moisten
the feed with fresh milk and some
times throw the dry chops on clean,
sandy place for them, which they
seem to like very much. I also give
them stale bread, elabber and meat
scraps for green food. They have a
large range and get q variety of
weeds, grass, oats and rye. and have
plenty of fresh water. 1 coop them
at night, have the coops clean and
move them often. Have no lice or
mites on them. 1 have been raising
chickens for thirteen years and don't
remember to have ever been more
successful in the business than have
this spring, this being the only trou-
BILE that / have had with them. Sew
eral of my neighbors have the same
trouble with their chicks. Could it be
possible that gnats cause this trouble?
Please give me some information as
soon as possible concerning this trou-
BILE
Thanking you in advance for any
help that I may receive, -.-.
Yours very truly,
J.. L. B.
ANSWER.
It is possible that the corn chops
referred to are too coarse and hard to
digest and occasionally a husk may
cause Indigestion. I have seen little
chickens also pick up bugs out on a
free range that they could not digest,
which would cramp them and cause
death. II you are troubled very much
with this il would be best for you to
confine your chickens for short
time until this trouble disappears and
only feed them just what you want
them to have to eat. Corn chops are
not a balance ration for little chick
ems and they should be mixed with
Iran and shorts, or get some OF the
regular prepared chick feeds. Aunt
Patsey and Red Comb are both good.
It is also a bad idea to feed chickens
on the ground. They should be fed
on a plank or in a trough. So.

If you keep any mongrel stock

tell the different hens eggs apart.
No man can absolutely be sure of
this. If you expect to. keep your

suppose you had reference to hens
when you mention these OF course
if you had a male bird that was a
mongrel in any thoroughbred flock
you would know positively that they
are mixed. 1t is best to keep a few
good ones that you know are all
right and get your stock from them.

I have just read your article in
today's Journal on -"Disinfecting

by incubator. We are having the
same trouble now, losing them
every day. We now have some
eggs in Incubator which have been

proper to wipe each egg with cloth
moistened in alcohol? / have read
your pieces in The Journal since
you have been writing for them

so.

to use, if more than once.
Thanking you, am
Very truly,
HOMER M. LYNCH
ANSWER.
I do not think that ii would be
wise to wash the eggs now with
the alcohol treatment.
If you will write to the agri-
cultural department of the United
States government at Washington
they will send you a bulletin on
White Diarrhoea that goes into
full detail in reference to this mat
ter and will give you more infor-
nation than 1 could possibly give
you.
Atlanta semi-weekly journal. (Atlanta, Ga.) 1898-1920, 1912-06-04
ANSWER.

1t is very often the case that
large, fluffy chickens will have
the trouble you mention in your
letter, and it is often brought on
by feeding something that acts
freely on their bowels. This will
adhere to the fluffy feathers and
will get worse II it is not correct
ed. The best thing to do is to
take a pair of scissors and trim
some of the long, downy feathers
close to the skin. When they are
once soiled it is best to trim the
feathers off; at the same time it
will remove the accumulation and
usually relieve the trouble for the
time being anyway, and by chang
ing the feed it will stop it.
