SOME TROUBLES OF TURKEYS
Common Cause Of Disease Termed
Chicken Pox Is Overlooking With
corn-It congests Liver.

Turkeys are sometimes infected
with a disease which might be termed
chicken pox-a condition in which the
heads become covered with large yell
low sores, which discharge little
and form scabs, giving the birds a
most unwholesome appearance, writes
I. B. Henderson in Farm, Stock and
Home. This is a form Of scrofula,
and it seems to spread from one bird
to another, so that it needs to be
dealt with on definite lines.
We believe a common cause of this
to be overlooking with corn, which,
in spite of advice to the contrary, still
remains a favorite food for turkeys
with many farmers; but 1t overheats
the system, and, being of starchy
nature, tends to longest the liver even
of young stock. The blood in this way
becomes filled with impurities, for the
simple reason that the digestive proc
esses cannot be properly carried out,
and these eruptions, especially IL the
birds get inoculated with the com
plant from some other source, viii
appear and will work untold mischief.
The only way to deal with this Is
| to separate the birds, battle the sores
as they appear with a fairly strong
solution of permanganate of potash,
/ paint with disinfectant, dose the bird
with epson salts, and keep on fairly
low diet. Such a treatment win give
the bird setback so far as tieshing
in concerned, but It is absolutely
necessary to follow out such treat
/ ment IL the trouble is to be checked,

FEEDING WHEAT TO CHICKENS
Exercise Given Hens In Scratching
Out Grain Is Conducive to Egg
Laying at All Times.
CBy H. H. sHEPARD)

last year, being short of hay and
having only a small wheat crop, we
cut all our wheat with the mower and
put it up for hay, harvesting it a few
days before the regular wheat harvest
ing time.
Our wheat-hay stored in the barn
was fed to the horses from the time it
was harvested till late in the winter
when it was all used up. Incidentally,
it proved to be one of the best horse
feeds we ever used. But the chickens
had the run of the barn and lots.
picking up and scratching out all scat
tered wheat.
As soon as our wheat was in the
barn and its feeding began, the hens
began Immediately to lay more eggs
than usual They continued to lay
unusually wen an summer, fan and
through the winter till the wheat-hay
was all fed out and gone. Within less
than a week after this wheat-hay was
gone our hens dropped in their egg
yield noticeabIy and they did not come
back to a heavy yield in spring till we
reluctantly purchased wheat at $1.60
a bushel and began to feed this grain.

I'm not surprised at his master not

It was open again--broken open

there was not much in 1t, to be seen,

ENGLISH VERBS TOO MUCH
Frenehman Tried Hard, But Somehow
He Couldn't Place Them Where
They Belonged.

He was a hard-working and intel

verbs troubled him.
"Ay, yes, m sieur, saw Mrs. Brown
the other day" he said to an American
friend, "and she telled--I mean told
me that her school was soon to break
down"
Break up, surely"
'Ah, yes, break up? Your verbs do
trouble me so yet! Break up-that
was it,"
why was she going to let her
school break up SO early?"
Because influenza had broken down
in IL.

going to leave the house in charge of

That is it. Broken into-by the

''Is her son married yetT'
NO, the engagement is broken in.
Broken off. oh, hadn't heard of
that! Is she worried about it?''

last week. Is that rightY'
NO; you should just say broke
there"
"Ah, well. 1 am nearly broke my
