Many mothers try one remedy after an

without apparently being able to find the
light one. lfanything seems wrong with

his Westmorelans, Tenn, mother, Mrs
John F. Anglea, who writes:
"My little girl had terrible skin disease
Ind her stomach was in such bad condi-
ion. Nothing helped her, so we finally
started to give her Ziron.
She improved so rapidly from the first
bottle, so we have given her two more.
She is much better"

number of these worms get into the
windpipe and become swollen with
blood breathing becomes difficult and
even impossible. Gaping, the charac-
teristic symptom Of the gapes, is the
natural result Of this choking.
Other Symptoms.
There are other symptoms, of course
Some of these are the shaking of the
head, the contracting and the extern
sion of the neck, the dropping of the
wings and a peculiar staggering gait
doubtless caused by the choking and
the exhaustion of the chicks.
Once in great While gaping will be
caused by touch of bronchitis, but as
a rule it is associated only with the
attacks of the tiny reddish worms that
fasteu themselves in the chicks

chicks, but they cause an irritation
that leads TO Inflammation OF the lin
ing of the air passages.
Weak chicks, attacked By cape
worms. viii die nine times out of ten.
as it is very hard TO relieve them.
The strong chicks may have vitality
enough to overcome the trouble, but
they will lose in growth.
The worms are sometimes extract
ed from the upper throat by means Of
4 looped horse hair. This is a tedious
operation and hardly worth while
| when there are many chicks to be
! looked after. The best plan is to iso-
late the sufferers and move the re-
mainder away from the ground where
| they have been feeding. Forcing the
chicks to breathe lime dust, fine, dry
air-slaked lime, will force the worms
to loosen their hold on the air pas
sages. AS a rule, though, the chicks
are hardly strong enough to stand such
| measures.

Other Harmful Worms.

In older birds the tapeworms and
round worms cause some losses. The
round worm is a cylindrical. smooth
parasite, tapering at both the front
and the rear. out the. front is more
pointed than the rear. They are in
festival parasites, bloodsuckers and
deyourers of the nourishment needed
by the growing bird or the laying hen.
When very numerous they cause q
diarrhea or in some instances Il stop
page of the inteStines.
The remedy is two grains of san
tonin for each bird, dissolved in the
drinking water or mixed in and fed
with mash. The round worm is
white in coloring and may vary from
one-third of an inch to five inches In
r length.
Now and again serious outbreaks OF
the tapeworm in poultry are reported
from various parts of the country. The
chief remedies used for tapeTorm il
fowls are extract of the male fern.
tirpentine, pumpkin Seeds the areca
hut and Epson salts.
