nI1EsTIoNs AND ANSWERS

o. | have several beautiful birds that
seem to have developed slight colds.
heard repeatedly that TINS con
dition IS the forerunner of roup, am
anxious to get rid of it. Please tell me
what to do
A. The season for colds has about
nassed. of course, but they may develop
AT any time particularly should your coop
he faulty in construction so as to admit
drafts on the birds at night. A cold IS
indeed the forerunner of roup, and II
left unattended, will within a compare
lively short time develop into either
roup or bronchitis. -
A cold is very easily broken-up Il
taken in time. and thus the lives OF
MANY valuable specimens may be saved.
Purchase a five cent oil can and nil 1t
with coal oil. At the first sign OF "a
cold catch the bird and by pushing the
bottom of the can, inject one douche oil
coal oil into each nOstril and into the
roof of the mouth. If taken IN time
tbe one application is sufficient to cure
the bird. However, should a cure
not be affected, repeat twice each day
until cured. Also remove the cause OF
fine cold if it lies in coop construction
The result of this treatment, at tn'
slightest trace of cold in all birds, Is
tbe entire absence of roup, the mos
dreaded disease among matured fowls
In addition to the coal oil, place a SINAI
onantitv of permanganate of potash u
me drinking water. The coal oil referred

A PROFITABLE BREED
And a Word About Eliminating the
Male Stock.

out the season and also during the best
egg season, or February, March and
April, than did those where the males
We're present.
OF the other lot, or the pure bred pull
lets, the one without the male began
laying earlier than did the one with
males. They laid better during the
earlier part Of the season than did the
ones with the males, but fell of slightly
during the latter months of the test.
But, even though their quantity fell off,
they did good work and kept it up to
the pens containing the males. This
falling off in the egg yield, however
was thought to have been due to the
vice of feather pulling which broke out
in the pen.
From these experiments. conducted
under the supervision of Government
experts in the branch of poultry raising
the fact that the presence of males mas
detrimental influence upon the egg
yield has been firmly established. inns
theory has been advanced by many
poultrymen in recent years and II IS
now generally accepted by most OF the
prominent egg farmers.
The habit Of allowing the males to
run with the females continually IS
usually found among the farmers who
pay but little attention to their fiockss
and among those who have limited
space for their chickens. The average
/ farmer usually allows many male birds
to soiourn on his premises when he could
increase his profits by coping and tatten-
ing them for market, to say nothing OF
the saving in feed. 49,,
The breeder who is hampered with the
lack of space which would enable him
TO separate the sexes would do we'll tc
sell off all of his males as soon as the
! breeding season is over and as fast as
4 the young cockerels reach the age and
size to be sold as broilers or flyers. II
] is by far, cheaper to purchase male
bird each season to head your breeding
pen than to feed a large number OF
/ useless ones throughout the year.
