CARE OF POULTRY IS NECESSARY NOW

Roup Is t Known As a Common Disuse of Grown Fowls.

HOW TO CURE GAPES

"Fowls, like human betngB," Bays Otis Crane, Lecturer of Poultry, Extension Department, Purdue University, "are subject to disease and death. By the violation of nature's laws many troubles are brought on unnecessarily. Who ever heard of a robin having the roup? It has vigor and strength and fresh air to breathe. By the use of proper food, much of the digestive troubles of both man and animals could be prevented. There are four days of treating the diseases of fowls: by neglect, by doctoring, by decapitation, or by prevention. Too many employ the first method and too few the last method. Prevention is the most successful and the cheapest way to treat poultry diseases. Sunshine and fresh air are the cheapest and best disinfectants, clean food and pure water are the best medicines, and exercise the best tonic. Administer

these with common sense and watch

ful care and half your troubles will be solved. But any poultryman is liable, through neglect, to have a sick fowl and should know what to do in times of trouble. If a fowl is very sick and it would take more time and expense to cure it than it would be worth, the

best thing to do is to kill at once and burn it. If a remedy is decided upon,

remove the sick fowl from those that

are well and place it in a dry, well

ventilated room. Try to determine the trouble before giving any treat

ment. Give medicine suited to the case. The following treatments have

proven valuable in many cases: Colds and Roup. One of the most common diseases of grown fowls is colds which sometimes develop into roup. If a watery discharge of the nostrils is noticed, it is evident that the fowl has become too hot and then chilled, or has roosted in a draught. Move to better quarters. Dip the fowl's head into a pint of warm water into which has been put one teaspoonful of creolin, or inject it Into the nostrils and roof of mouth with medicine dropper. It is well to place enough permanganate of potash in the drinking water to give it a purple color. This treatment is generally successful. If pus forms In the air passages above the nostrils, open through the face with a sharp knife and after the pus is removed, wash with diluted creolin. Disinfect drinking vessels with a 20 per cent solution of carbolic acid and put permanganate of potash In the drinking water. Treatment of Gapes. Gapes Is caused by a small worm

that fastens itself to the inside lining of the chick's windpipe. These worms are sneezed out after they have performed their life's function, being full of eggs, or else are swallowed and passed off with the droppings. The eggs or worms are taken in with food or drink by other chicks. Manure piles, chip yards, damp shady orchards are all fine places for gape worm propagation; but dry sunshiny yards are unfavorable to them. In this dis-easep-evention is the most satisfacWy way'bTjIcihg with it, and can

be successfully acompllshed. If chicks are not allowed to run on infected ground, they will not have gapes. And If the chicks are kept in a small Inclosure, this limited space can be thoroughly disinfected by using one of the coal tar dips. I know this is a sure and satisfactory way to deal with the pest. The chicks can be kept in these coops until they weigh 2 pounds and after that time their trachea is large enough that these worms can not shut off the breathing and therefore little harm can be done. There is no medicine that can be fed a chick to cure the gapes, to my knowledge. The chick swallows medicine down the gullet and the worm is in the trachea. Persons who know how, can remove worms with a blue grass stem or a horse hair very successfully, but as before stated, the prevention is the surest and cheapest way to manage this disease."

TEETER PLANT TO EXPAND, NOT MOVE

(Palladium Spectai) HAGERSTOWN, Ind., July 9. Officers of the Light Inspection Car company of this city today denied the report that the company was planning to move its plant to some other town, and that Newcastle was the most likely candidate. The company employs 175 men in tho manufacture of engines, valve rings and gasoline inspection cars. The report gave the difficulty of securing labor as the reason for the contemplated move. Are Perfectly Satisfied. In its denial the company states

that the majority of the officers are

against moving the plant, beine sat

isfied with the present location, and feeling that the difficulty in geting labor can be obviated. At present plans

are under discussion for the enlargement of the plant, but nothine definite

has been decided upon.
