NO REMEDY FOR BLACKHEAD
Experts Of Rhode Island Experiment.
Station Make Recommendations
for Preventing Disease.

CBy MILLIGAN c. FITZPATRICK. Poul-
try Department. Ohio State University
No remedy or satisfactory method
of prevention Of blackhead has been
discovered, although the disease has
been carefully studied for years. Doc
tors Cole and Hadley of the Rhode Is
land experiment station make the fol-
lowing recommendations:
/. Protect the yards and f1ocks
which may have the good fortune to
be unaffected with the blackhead or

ganism by thorough examination OF
all new stock whether turkeys, fowls,
geese or other domestic birds.
2. Keep the turkeys on grounds
which are as fresh as can be OBJ
tanned and. above all, keep them iso-
lated from fowls and other domestic
birds.
3. Keep every turkey in the flock
under close observation in order to
separate and at once isolate any bird
which gives evidence Of the disease,
To facilitate such observations 1t IL
helpful to leg-band each individual and
to record its weight from time to time
4. II it Is known that blackhead 10
present in any OF the poultry, that
yard and house should be kept free
from sparrows, rats and mice. which
are carriers of the organism which
causes the disease.
5. In fattening turkeys for the mar
ket. increase the rations gradually.
Overlooking or a sudden increase in
the ration will not cause blackhead.
but frequently causes death of birds
In which blackhead ia present.
6. The bodies of all birds which
have died OF blackhead should be
burned or buried Immediately.
On most farms. 1t is out OF the
question to put into practice all OF
these recommendations, especially
those In regard to the isolation OF
the flock. The general practice is to
allow the turkeys to mingle with the
other fowls. Unless these recommen.
dations can be rather closely fol-
lowed, however. it is not advisable
to attempt to raise turkeys after the
disease has once made its appear.
ance. The turkeys in your flock
which do not appear to be infected
may become chronic carriers of the
disease. II 1t is necessary for you
to rear turkeys next season on ground
which has been occupied by fowls or
by diseased turkeys, you are very like
" to experience the same trouble.

attorneys fee of $500. Other counsel
fees are allowed
The fund in question is the same
which formed the basis of the en-
bezzlement indictment under which Mr..
Fulton was convicted and which con-
viction was recently reversed by the
Court of Appeals and new trial
granted. The verdict of the jury found
that the fund belonged to Mr.. Smith
and also to he infants.
BY the decision Of Justice Anderson,
it is pointed out, the $S2o alleged to
have been emoezzled by Mr.. Fulton
included 500. an attorney fee belong
ing to him, and that the interest OF
Mr. Smith, the complaining witness, IN
the fund, was 81 in addition TO ad-
vancas made by him in connection
with the litigation to recover the fund.

In addition to rumors that non-alco-
holic and kickless beer would soon be
put on the market, following the exam
pie of the British Isles. another jolt
was handed to the matted liquor con-
sumers today when it became known
that the Congress Of the United States
is considering raising S33.0o0.o00 by an
increased tax on beer. The fact that
the ways and means committee also is
considering placing an extra tax on
whisky and thus raising an extra $50
100000, has been rumored. but the
greatest CONSERVATION is said to pre-
vail over the beer rumor.

The National Society of the d. \. r.

proceeding instituted in the District
Supreme Court by Edmund B. Piper of
Philadelphia, for himself and in behalf
of his aunt, Mrs. Helen H. ?. Manson,
to compel the defendant to maintain
the designation of the meeting room of
the board of managers in Memorial
Continental Hall as the board ROOM,
and to prevent the addition of the
word connecticut" to the designation
Of the room. Mrs Manson in March,
1910. gave $4,000 for decorating and
furnishing the room, with the distinct
understanding, it is claimed. that there
source with her plans for decorating
and furnishing the room.
The court is advised that the dona-
ton was accepted and the room deco
rated and furnished with the $4,000
given by Mrs. Manson, who placed a
tablet therein. showing the room to be
memorial to the ancestors of Mrs.
Manson, who is great granddaughter
of George Piper and Eve Lear OF Penn
sylvana. Mrs. Manson requested that
the room should be designated as the
board room only, and it was so called
until the spring of 1915, when, without
her knowledge or consent. the court is
told. the word "connectiCut was
placed in addition to the words boa rd
room above the entrance to the room.
Later the word was taken down and at
the october meeting, 1915. of the ma
tional board of managers it WAS re-
solved to have the room bear the ap-
pellation board room only and that
the word connecticut should not APP
pear over the entrance thereto.
