Corrective for Overeating.

Chaircoal is an excellent corrective of the evils of injudicious overfeeding, and is also a good remedy in bowel disorders in poultry. Having wonderful absorbent powers, especially for gases, only a small quanity should be put into the feed hoppers at a time on account of its abs'orptive naturd. . ; ... 1 It should be kejtt In a thoroughly dry vessel with a close-fitting cover, so as to exclude the air. If charcoal is heated w*ell before given to the poulty, it will have a tendency to drive off the impurities which may have become absorbed, and it will be equal to fresh charcoal.
