A COMMON POULTRY DISEASE.

Roup Is a more or less contagious
disease appearing in several forms
chiefly among chickens. Severe
colds, chicken pox, sore head, rat
ties or diptheric roup are all
! thought to be but different forms OF
the same infection, generally known
as roup. 1t Is most prevalent dur
ing the fall and early winter. at
lacking both young and old birds
The exact cause OF the disease is not
known, but it is supposed to be due
to a very small bacteria or similar
organism. 1t is known. however,
that 1t flourishes in dark, cold,
damp or draughty houses, or in ov-
ercrowded houses, where the venti-
! lation is not sufficient to supply
plenty Of fresh air to the birds. Anv
condition tending to make the birds
uncomfortable or to weaken their
vitality or vigor is conducive to an
| outbreak of roup. II seems to be
present in most flocks continually,
only awaiting favorable opportuh.
| ity to make its appearance. 1t may.
however, be introduced by purchas-
ed birds or contracted at poultry
shows or from coops in which ola
eased birds have been shipped.
Symptoms-Birds affected with
the most common form of roup us
ually show at first the symptoms OF
cold. A very offensive odor is
present and there Is a watery dis
charge from the nostrils and eyes.
Later this may be foamy white.
and then yellowish. AS the disease
progresses, whitish patches may al
pear in the throat or mouth and the
eve may swell. In case the eyelld
becomes stuck together the eye may
be enormously distended by the ac-
emulation of pus in the eyesocket
or the face may be swollen below
the eve. In one form, sores appear
on the face and comb, and may
spread to other regions. and in an
other there Is rafting in the
throat, due to pus forming In the
CLOTHS. All these symptoms may be
rrasent, or the disease may be To-
Called and only one appear.
Method OF Spread--Infected birds
carry the disease from place TO place
| and infect others bv contact. IL Is
also spread through the drinking
water and feed. II may spread rap
idly through an entire flock or at
tack only a few birds. depending
upop the virulence OF the organism
and the resistance of the birds. In
some cases II is highly fatal and In
others the birds suffer little incon-
venience. sometimes LAYING through
out the course OF the disease.

of control and treatment depend
largely upon the form of the dis
ease. The first step Is to remove
all sick birds from the flock and If
badly affected, kill and burn. II it
is only light case, these birds will
often recover without treatment II
placed in a well-ventilated and dry
coop. Next look for the cause of the
outbreak, such as damp houses, ov-
er-crowding, draughts, poor ventila-
ton or unsanitary condition in gen.
eral, and remedy that. Then to pre-
vent spread of the disease, clean
out and disinfect the house. Control
the food and water supply and keep
1t clean. Use bichoride of mercury
in the drinking water, putting one
7.3 grain tablet in every gallon. Use
only in earthen or wooden vessels.
Spray over the heads OF the birds at
night while on the roost strong So
luton Of disinfectant with a vapor
sprayer. Good ventilation and dry
ness in the house are essential il
control methods are to be success
full.
In case individual treatment is
desired for especially valuable birds,
put them in a dry, airy coop and
proceed as follows: Scrape off all
deposits in the mouth and throat
and open the eye and nostrils by
soaking in warm water; remove the
scabs from exposed sores on the
head and face, and touch with a dis
infectant undiluted: immerse the
head of the bird in a warm saturat-
ed solution Of potassium perman-
ganate, holding until the bird strug-
giles violently; or turn the bird on
it's back and pour the solution into
the slit in the roof of the mouth
until the nasal passages are flooded;
feed lightly and repeat the treat
ment as often as necessary.
