McCULLOUGHS LETTER.
W. H. Mccullough, Deputy Sheriff Of
Ward county, Texas, from BarstOw, says
that for eight years he had suffered
death, from liver and stomach troubles.
And had taken everything from mineral
water to cal0mel. Until it had etaen his
stomach and intestines into caneerous
ulcers until any food would throw him
into terrific spasms. In despair he came
to FL Paso. And DR.. Collins Of the DR..
Still Osteopathie Infirmary, loosened
the nerves Of my spine and threw the
blood to my stomach. And it and my
intestines shed their Innings and threw
the cancers out and I grew so bad had
spasms every hour until the lining was
out; then new skin formed on my stom-
ach and intestines until now 1 am a
new man. Don't have any more spells
and enjoy every mOuthful I eat FL

Blessing it has in that Great Osteopathic
Institution, Inder Or. Ira ". Collins,

awful condition I was in. And all the
medical doctors would shake their heads
and say no hope. After they had cut
off my appendix and said that would
cure me. Then cut out my liver for gall
stones and said that would cure me.
Then after there was nothing else to
cut off and no dope I hadn't taken, left
me to die in agony and say there was
no hope. Don't be foolish. But write
me if YOU don't believe what the DaDers
say. For they cured me in the awruI
hour of my troubles. And I want every
body to know it. Ny father investi-
gated what they were doing for Others

if we ventured 10 miles below the bor-
der then the frightful smallpox would
be assured US to a certainty.
Conditions in this section, however,
are unfavOrable for the propagation of
any micrObe in the human system and
while we have among US thousands OF
healthSeekerS affected with tubercu-
this disease among American residents

a certainty that though the specific
germ of a disease be taken into the
body, conditions must be favorable or

just so it is with the little chick.
The specific germ Of white diarrhOea

ditions for the development OF the dis
ease be unfavOrable you need not ad-
minister orlum or any other nostrum
for its prevention
First Days the Critical Period.
Ordinarily the first 10 DAYS OF
brooding determine the question OF
white diarrhoea and all chicks carried
over this period in a healthy condition
while not entirely passed the danger
expected to reach maturity under or
dinarily intelligent care
As in the incubating of the eggs. the
danger lies in overheating so in brood
ing the chicks the danger is in under
heating. II under the hover should be-
come too hot for the little fellows their
instinct suggests TO them TO move out
a little which hey promptly do.
There are many styles OF brOOders,
and in any of them have seen, chicks
can be successfully raised, but would
vary the directions materially from
those accompanying the machine
In the first place 1 would say that
when the eggs are ready to pip the
broOder should begin to warm UP. The
floor should be covered with dry sand
and litter and the machine run at
high temperature so that the floor and
all NAV be thoroughly warmed up by
the time the little chicks are ready to
be placed in it. and this should be be-
fore they are permitted to drop into
cool nursery OF the incubator
As a matter of fact, regardless OF
the style of incubator and regardless
of what the manu1acturer says the
way for the little chicks to drop from
the egg tray to the nursery below
should be blocked, and when they are
Thoroughly dry they should be removed
either TO another incubator where the
temDerature of the nursery Is l03 de-
grees two or three inches above the
floor or they should be placed in the
broOder which mas DeeR carefully
warmed and is running at about 103
degrees under the hover two or three
inches above the warmer How which
as I have before said, should be COW
cred with sand and litter. No attention
need be paid the little fellows for IS
to - hours except TO avoid every pos
sibIe chill. Many thousands of chicks
ers. and yet I am unalteraDly opposed
to them. It's not natures way and not
the rational way. and I notice much
less mention of them in the poultry
press than even a year ago. For the
first two or three weeks they need ar

to die with a large ovarian abseess,
which they said would Kill her with
blood poisoning.
The abseess left a cavity as large as
your double fist.
The worst they said they had ever
seen.
Dr.. Collins freed the nerves to the kid
ney and the temperature went right
down. Then he freed the nerves to the
Ovaries so they could drain themselves
and get blood around them and It
healed up that great abseess until my
wife says she wishes every woman could
know what Osteopathy can do for them
when suffering with various female trou-
bles.
ut has saved my life and I think it IS
the greatest blessing ever discovered
There are "a Others with female troubles
taking now out of 112 patients, and
they are all doing well.
There is every kind of trouble one can
think of being treated here, blood poi
soning, liver troubles, appendicitis fits,
eye troubles of every kind, lung troubles.
throat troubles, rheumatism, and all
kinds Of asthma, paralysis Of every
kind, all kinds of diseases of little ba-
bies, spasms and Indigestion.

usually given them or there would be
less mortality among broOder chicks.
starting in with a temperature Of lV5
degrees under the hover it should be
three weeks before it is gradually re-
quced TO so and two weeks more be-
fore it is allowed TO fan to so. A thou
sand chicks are lost from being chilled
where one is lost from Overheating
though, of course, that should be guard
ed against and the way to guard
against it is TO give them a chance
to move off a little If the heat at its
source is a little too great.
The First Feeding.
Two or three days after incubation
they should be given their first feed
and it should be a light one. Grain is
their natural feed and IL is hard to
Improve on very much. Some feed
boiled egg, curd. bread crums. etc.
which is good enough. but mixed grains
cracked pretty fine with gravel. char
coal and finely ground bone Of easy
access is, I think the ideal policy to
pursue Most poultry men use a dry
mash in the feeding of baby chicks.
This mash is kept constantly before
them in hOppers. and great variety
should be used in its makeup. The

- T GREATER Importance than IN
cUbation is the subject Of brood
- ing. It is harder to raise right
artificially the livable chicks than it
is to hatch the hatchable eggs. As an
evidence Of this. take two matches OF
Brown Leghorn chicks Of same stock
and place one with the hen and the
other in the brooder. At the expira-
ton Of six weeks it will be found that
those reared by the hen are as true
to color as a cOvey Of Bob White quail,
while the brooder flock is so splotched
with white as to raise the suspicion
that they have suffered large admix-
ture Of the blood Of the white variety.
Not so. however, but there has been a
strong admixtUre Of incorrect brood
ing, commencing usually from the hour
Of their incubation and what I mean
by this early error is the dropping Of
the little chicks as soon as they are
Matched from the egg tray where the
temperature IS LOB degrees down into
the nursery where the temperature is
not more than 80 percent. It looks
like crazy man would know better
than that and yet most incubator men
pride themselves on the nursery be-
low" for the little chicks. Certainly this
is not natures way where we find the
little fellows lowered closely under the
hen in a temperature Of about 1O4 de-
grees IL being usually p hours before
an occasional little head is projected
from beneath the mothers body.
Young Chicks Very FrafI.
It seems to me. that the frailest crea-
ture in the world is q newly Matched
chick. He is simply nothing but a tend
e. skeleton covered with a tender skin
into which has been absorbed fer sub
sequent digestion the entire yOlk of the
egg. Is it any wonder he can not stand
the chills to which he is subjected in
She process Of artificial brOoding2 Ma
ture intended the temperature of the
little body and particularly the undi-
gested yolk Of the egg contained in it
should De Kept at a high point, and
when we violate the rules she has laid
down we can but expect to stand the
consequences which are a death rate
usually OF 40 percent Of the hatch and
chiefly rom the disease known as
white dlarrhoea- And I want to say a
word with reference to this malady-
CnQuesuOnably its cause is specific
germ and this germ must necessarily
come from parent stock and yet the
presence OF the germ does not neces-
sarIy imply the outbreak Of the dis
ease as is proved by the fact that the
trouble IS luxury enjoyed almost ex-
cluSlYely by aruficially Matched and
brooded chicks, those reared by hens
being siEgularly free from il.
Science teaches that the human fam
lily lives in an atmosphere laden with
and it is a fact that not one
person In many thousand exposed to
disease and receiving the specific germs
in his body, is affected by it. for were

SPINAL MENINGITIS.
I took the statement Of those for

and they were loud in their praises Of

ROBERTS LETTER.
Rev. J. c. Roberts son was stricken
with spinal meningitis so badly that
two men couldn't hold him. And they
had given him up in despair when DR..
Ira W. Collins, the Osteopath, was
called. He quoted the heart nerves and
pushed the second cervical vertebra for
ward and then opened the kidneys and
threw the poison out. And in two min
utes the boy was quiet and restored to
health IN a few days.
1t was the most convincing demonstra-
ton of the efficacy of Osteopathy IN
spinal meningitis I ever witnessed and
would have convinced the most skeptical.
