TUBERCULOSIS OF CHICKENS
Affected Fowls Squat in Secluded
Places and Gradually Become
Quite Emaciated.

tuberculosis of chickens is quite
common and is caused by a type OF
tubercle bacillus which has become
adapted to birds. Transmission OF
tuberculosis from poultry TO man.
mails, including man, is rare except
in case of hogs. Hogs contract tuber-
eulosis from poultry, and are more
susceptible TO cattle tuberculosis than
are cattle themselves. Chickens, when
affected. squat in secluded places and
gradually become emaciated In
dressing a diseased chicken the breast
muscles are usually wasted and the
LESSONS are most likely TO be found in
the liver, spleen and intestines.
Cheesy masses in any of these organs
is always suspicious. The disease may
be detected by means of the intruder

FARMERS WARNED TO
ERADICATE CHICORY
1t Has Become Troublesome
Weed in Many Sections.
Seeds of Plant Usually Distributed In
Grass or Clover Seed in Which u
Occurs as an Impurity-
Readily Identified.

One mans meat Is another mans
poison; and chicory. grown as a vege-
table in Europe, is likely TO become a
pest over here. says the United States
Department OF Agriculture.
ChicOry IS grown as vegetable and
forage crop in Europe and to lesser
extent as a vegetable In the United
States. In some sections, notably In
Michigan, there Is a considerable pro-
ductiOn Of the root for use as coffee
substitute. 1t readily runs wild. and
the wild form has become In recent
years a troublesome weed from the
state of Virginia northward. It's
spread has increased from year TO
year until the Department Of Agricul-
ture finds IL sufficiently disturbing to
justify warning TO farmers.
The seeds of the wild forms are
usually distributed in grass and clover
seed in which it occurs as an impurity.
Farmers should watch for the appear
ance of the plants. readily identified
by the blue flowers and thick roots,
and eradicate ii by cutting an inch or
so below the soil surface. After cut
ting. drop pinch of salt on the sew
cred root, which will prevent sprout-
ing. During the morning hours the
bright, blue flowers are very conspicU-
Gus and it is easy to locate the plants
and either pull or cut them. When 1t
appears in quantity it may be eradi-
Gated by growing an intertilled crop,
such as potatoes or corn, for at least
two years. Continuous grazing by
sheep or goats will also help destroy
the weed.
Chicory was brought into Massachu-
sets from Holland in 1885. The prin-
cipal use Of the plant is as a coffee
substitute and adulterant, for which
the roasted dried root is used. I'm
proved varieties of chicory are used
as salads and green's. The young, ten
der roots are also edible. One variety
produces witloOf, a vegetable that is
becoming Increasingly important AS
a forage plant chicory is little es-
teemed in the United States, but in
Europe it is regarded as a valuable
element in sheep pastures.
Information regarding the control
and eradication of chicory is contained
in Circular 1OS, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.
