Washington, Sept 28.-(P-The ills
of the lead, copper and lumber indus
tries were enumerated to the Inter-

Attorneys told the commission that
the capital structure of the lead, cop
per and lumber industries was in a
more precarious condition than that
of the railroads. The railroads have
based their appeal for increased
freight rates on their need of revenue
to maintain the value of their bonds
and to enable them to refinance such
issues as may mature.

ferrous metal industry, particularly
lead and copper. told the commission
much OF the domestic producers busi-
ness was likely to go to foreign sources

guarded against, since only few in
fected eggs which hatch may spread
the disease to numerous chicks in the
same or later matches.
8. Clean Brooder Houses-To prop
erly clean the house means more than
merely raking out the dirt and filth.
The house and all equipment must be
scraped clean, then scrubbed with hot
I've water and then rinsed, in order to
make thorough job.
A. Clean or Fresh Brooding Ground
TO get away from the contamina-
ton and accumulation of last years
brooding filth, the house should be
moved to ground which has been free
of all poultry and poultry manure
during the past year. This means US
ing movable brooder houses.
5. Clean Litter-Frequent cleaning
of the house and replacing with
fresh litter is very effective in COM
batting attempts of disease to gain a
foothold. Cleaning the brooder house
twice a week as long as the chicks
have heat is especially effective
against coccidiosis and other diseases.
6. Clean Feeding-Using hoppers
and fountains that keep the chicks
from getting into them with their feet
are the preferred type. All feeders
and fountains should be emptied and
thoroughly cleaned at least once a
day and more often if necessary.
7. Clean Management-This espec-
tally refers to keeping contamination
from being carried to the chicks, as
well as to removing any dangers
which may appear. Two of the most
important are, promptly killing and
burning all weak and diseased chicks,
and keeping all birds away from the
brooder house and brooding ground.
8. Clean Laying Houses-To get
the best results from pullets that
have been raised clean, they must be
housed in clean quarters. The house
they are to be placed in should be
scraped and scrubbed as clean as the
brooder house was cleaned, and after
drying, bedded deeply with good lit
ter. Two yards to each house to pro-
vide alternate outside run is to be
preferred to free range or a single
yard. This allows two year rota-
ton plan to be followed.
Use the "Grow Healthy Chicks"
pills and panaceas for prevention.
