THE PREVENTION OF POUL-
TRY DISEASES.
JOHN r. BOWIE.

'owls are liable to be affected by a
number of diseases and may also be in
fectcd by various kinds of parasites which
live on the surface of the body and also
IN the crop, stomach or intestines, taking
the nouriShment which SHOULD be used to
put on flesh or produce eggs and also
cause irritation and inflammation.
The contagious diseases produced by
animal and vegetable germs are the most
important the poultryman has to consider
in trying to keep his birds healthy. These
germs and the parasites should be kept
out preferably by preventive measures,
although there are cases where medl-
cines may be advantagcously given As
a rule, however, it is better to XIII sick
fowls, the cost Of treatment being greater
than the value of the birds. Moreover,
the spread of contagious diseases is also
there
TO start right, then set eggs from a
flock which has shown no indications of
contagious diseases for at least a year;
avoid putting these eggs in packing such
as chat, etc, which may be musty or
moldy; wipe them with a cloth wet in 70
to so per cent alcohol and hatch them in
thoroughly cleansed incubator The
young chicks should then be free from
parasites and injurious germs of all kinds
and to keep them so put them In clean
breeders and allow them to run only upon
ground which has not been used for
fowls for several years.
Should hens he used for Matching the
chicks pick out those known to he healthy
and dust well with lice powder before set
