ONE HOT WEATHER TROUBLE
When Diarrhea First Makes Its APP.
pearance 1t May Be Checked by
Use Of Charcoal.
(By III. B. sPEcK.)

Diarrhea is one Of the most com
mon hot weather troubles in poultry
Of all ages, and when it makes its
first appearance, charcoal freely fed
may check or control the disorder. Dr.
arrhea may be due to food or drink
ing water being foul with droppings
or other filth; to feeding impure,
musty and moldy food; to overhead
ing; to feeding In dusty, musty or
moldy litter; to unclean quarters and
dampness; to overlooking on meat
food or feeding spoiled meat; to eat
ing poisoned substances or to indiges-
ton from any cause. The first thing
to do when Nfarrhea makes its APP
pearance is to find the cause and re-
move it. Drinking from filthy pools
in unclean runs after sudden show
er, or drinking barnyard seepage Is
a common cause of diarrhea in hot
weather.

ment for the newspapers, which he

lust been consolidated. Sometimes
he would not work more than sixteen
