TUBERCULOSIS IN CHICKENS

Caused by Quarters Being Poorly

tuberculosis in poultry results in a
loss of weight. The birds may look
all right for q time, but they will be
found TO be ngiTt Mr.. Barton, of the
North Dakota Agricultural college,
states that in the later stages the birds
become weak. often they cannot fly

and after a little die. According TO
Mr.. Barton, this disease is quite COM
mon, affecting turkeys as well as
chickens. One way to tell if the birds
have tuberculosis is to cur them open.
If the bird IS light In weight and the
liver is enlarged and spotted it may
be quite safe TO say that it has been
suffering from tuberculosis.
He states that small quarters. poor
Iy ventilated. poorly lighted. and damp
are conducive TO the spread of the dis
ease. The best remedy Is TO dispose
of all infected birds and if the flock is
badly infected TO dispose of al the
birds; then thoroughly clean the
house and yards, disinfect and start
over again with tubercuiosis-free
birds. Mr.. Barton recommends a dis
infectant made up In the ratio of one |
ounce of creolin and one ounce Of car
bolie acid to one gallon OF water.

FIGHTING PEACH TREE PEST
Para Dichlorobenzene Treatment A.
fords Means of Kidding Or
chards of Harmful Borer.

The results Of what Is Known as the
Observation-Disclosures treatment for the
eradication Of the peach-tree bOrer
lead experts of the United States De
partment of Agriculture to believe that
a practical means has finally been
found of Kidding orchards Of this dis
astrously destructive pest Previously
the only effective method Of fighting
the bOrer was by removing the soil
around the base OF the tree and dig
ging the grubs out of their galleries
with a knife. 1t is estimated that the
borer had done 100000 damage a
year and that 100000 a year has
been spent in fighting them.
The Observation-Disclosures method
was first used extensively by orchard
lists in 1919. II consists in sprinkling
fine crystals OF insecticfde on the soil
around the base OF the infected tree
and covering with earth 70 hold the
gas. The substance is highly volatile
and forms a gas when the soil is be-
tween 70 and so degrees Fahrenheit.
This gas is i've times heavier than air
and sinks down through the soil II
is highly effective against the borer;
and a pound of the insecticiie. cost
ing not more than % cents. is sufficient
for eight to ten trees. The labor is
scarcely one-third of that formerly re-
quired. The saving therefore is great.
In 1920 the para-dichlorobenzenei
process was used extensively in the
Georgia peach belt, some localities
buying as high as 50,OO0 pounds and
large individual growers as high as
two tons each. Growers declare that
il IS one of the greatest accomplish
ments In the history of the depart
inent. comparable TO the self-boiled
lime-sulphur treatment for control Of
brown rot and scab Of the peach.

DIFFERENT KINDS OF GEESE
Toulouse Is Most Popular on Account
of Large Size-Emden and Chi
nese Are Liked.

The Toulouse is the giant Of the
geese family. II is a native Of France.
Its ordinary weight is from u to 20
pounds, but 1t is not uncommon 10
find specimens weighing from % to 30
pounds. This is the typical gray goose,
but beneath and behind these body
feathers are white areas ia the plu-
mage.
1t is said by those Who have had
experience with this breed that young
geese during the first year lay from
Is to % eggs, when older they may
ay from IS TO 40.
The Emden is a popular breed in
some places. The bodies of the birds
are snowy white, the legs and bills
yellow. They have good type and
conformation. In size 1t is the same
as standard for the Toulouse, though
it is said a smaller number of En-
den reach this standard than the Iou-
louise.
The Emden, when well bred, prop
erly fed and prepared, makes a car
cas- that sells well on the market.
But it is said that many breeders In
this country have not given much at
tention to fine quality.
There are two varieties Of Chinese
geese. Brown and White. This breed
has different characteristics from the
others mentioned. The birds stand
more erect and have longer and slen-
derer necks than the others. The
Brown Chinese have at the base Of
the bill a peculiar dark-colored knob.
The Brown Is considered the most
prolific Of all the geese. The stand
ard weight for the gander is Is pounds.
goose II pounds. The female is said
to lay from 10 TO 30 eggs. sometimes
more. A large per cent Of the eggs
are generally fertile.
The African Is not at all common
in this country. The color Of this
breed is dark gray on the back and
light beneath. There is a dark stripe

SIZES OF FRUIT CONTAINERS
Efforts Being Made to Fix Standards
Readily Distinauishable by
the Average Buyer.

The bureau of markets Of the United
States Department of Agriculture. in
its efforts to bring about srandardiza-
ton Of shipping containers for fruits
and vegetables, is recommending
standard types for three o. the most
common types OF packages These
are the hamper, the round stave bas-
ket, and the market basket
These recommendations provide not
only standard sizes but standard d.
mansions. and II is the intention Of
the department TO fix Standards which
will be readily distinguishable from
each other by the average buyer.
There are at present a great many
containers Of different sizes which are
so nearly the same in appearance that
they are a never-endins source Of
fraud.
BY slight modification in const1uc-
ton II is. possible to make q 2S-quart
hamper which looks so nearly Ike

Conducted BY National Council Of tia
Boy Scouts Of America
LIKE OUTINGS IN WINTER

Winter camps in the North give
boys opportunity for such exhilarat-
ing sports as sledging, skiing. skat-
Ing, and hockey. All these were en-
joyed by the scouts in the various
northern winter camps during this
season. And best Of all they were
enjoyed under expert leadership, all
troops being accompanied by men
versed In nature study. Al the great
camp for boys Of New York city,
Capt. II. Beard and other borough
council executives were present Cap
tain Beard, who is a nephew Of the
famous scout Dan" Beard, national
scout commissioner. was recently made
s,9uI executive for the Borough OF
Manhattan.
The Minneapolis winter camp was
directed by W. c. Vessels, formerly
Of the Office Of the national camping
department Of the Boy Scouts Of
America in New York. Mr.. Vessels
IS a graduate Of the New York state
college Of forestry at Syracuse. and
in December was called 10 Ainneapo-
lis by the boy scouts councl- there to
take the Office of director Of camping
and outdoor activities. His schedule
calls for an all-year-round program OF
weekend and winter camping.
In these winter activities scouting
Is proving the success Of It's an
nounced policy Of making camperan
an al-year-round program. Some OF
the advantages Of winter camping and
weekend camping during the winter
mC>ths are that a larger enrolment
is thus made than was ever made
through summer camping In winter
camps the boys are not bothered By
flies, mosquitoes, and other insects
snakes and other reptiles. and numer-
Gus other pests, including park loaf
ers and tramps. Food keeps better,
and then, Of course, there is tie stim
ulating effect Of the exhilarating win

home than they are IN the summer
