ing. The Inflammation, which begins
in the nasal passages, soon extends to
the eyes and to the spaces which exist
Immediately below the eyeballs. The
eyelids are swollen, held closed much
of the time, and may be glued togeth-
er by the accumulated secretion. The
birds sneeze and shake their heads in
their efforts to free the air passages
from the thick mucus. The appetite
is diminished, and the birds sit with
their heads drawn in and their wings
dropping, having a general appearance
of depression and sickness.
When the Inflammation reaches the
spaces or sacs beneath the eyes it
causes the formation of a Secretion
very similar to hat of the nose, and
as this becomes thick it collects, dis
tends the walls of these spaces, and
produces a warm and painful swelling,
which Is seen just below the eyes and
may reach the size of a hickory nut.
This swelling presses with much force
on the eyeball, which is displaced and
more or less deformed, and in extreme
cases wen the bones of the head may
give way before it.
The closure of the eyes prevents the
badly affected birds from finding food
the accumulation of mucus in the nos
trils completely obstructs these pas
sages, so that the beak must be kept
open in order to breathe; the obstruc.
ton of the windpipe and the smaller
air tubes causes loud breathing sounds
and difficult respiration.
In the eve and advanced cases
the birds sit in a somnolent or semi
conscious condition, unable to e or
to eat; their strength is rapidly ex
hausted, and many of them die within
a week or ten days. A part of the
affected individuals recover, but others
continue weak and have a chronic
form of the disease for months, dur
ing which time they continue to dis.
seminate the contag'On.

French Nerve.

A French balloon observer was at
tached TO an American unit. For four
days he went up in his bulky sausage
and remained there u~nperturbed by
whistling shells, directing the fire of
American batteries. On the fifth day
a German airplane dived from a low
cloud with its machine gun going. The
balloon dissolved in flame and smoke,
and the observer took to his para.
chute.
The Boche airman, moi content with
destroying the sausage. pursued the
Frenchman as he floated down, pump.
ing bullets at the outspread umbrella.
And the Frenchman coolly drew his re-
volver and answered the BOche's fire.

PREVENTION is BEST

The treatment OF sick birds
requires much time and patience
and there is always the risk.
that they may carry the con-
tagion for several months after
they are apparently well. Pre-
vention of colds and roup is,
therefore, much nor ~satisfac-'
tory and profitable than treat
ment, say specialists of the Unit
ed States department of agricul-
ture. The poultry house should
be kept free from drafts, and
measures should be continually
enforced which will exclude con-
tagion of all kinds.

To Distinguish Roup.

Roup is distinguished from d~iphther-
Ia by the absence of the thick, tough,
and very adherent newly formed mem
branes (false membranes) in the nos
triis, pouth, and throat which are
characteristic of the latter. There may
sometimes be a deposit of yellowish
material on the walls of the mouth
and throat, but it is easily broken up
and removed.
