Nature has not clothed the young
urkey with a thick coat of down or
Baby feathers • sufficiently to protect
it from the cold rains that are quite
common during May and June.
Hence "many young birds perish, dy-
ing of inflammation of the lungs
shortly after experiencing the first
teed rain. Little can be done to ef-
fect a cute, Everything .lies in the
direction of prevention. Do not let
the youngbards get wet, provide suit-
able sheler, and do not let them get
too far away so:. that they may be
quickly rounded up and protected
from cold andwet until they are
well -feathered.
Roup.
This trouble is due to an infectious
organism gaining -entrance . to the
nasal passages of the victim and set-
ting up a catarrhal condition usually
easilyrecognized by clogged nostrils,
inflamed mucous membrane of
mouth, very offensive odor and swell-
ings on sides of the head. Housing
young turkeys in unsanitary, poorly,
ventilated or draughty quarters cre-
ates conditions which make the bird
very susceptible to theinfectious or
ganism causing roup. If the disease
gains a. grip onyoung birds, it is best
to kill them off at once and correct
the hygienic conditions for any that
remain apparently normal. Exposed
birds that are to be kept should be
given good nourishing food and a
physic of salts once a week. Birds
showing symptoms may be treated, if
so desired, as follows: Massage as
much of the material as possible out
of the nostrils,. -•clean out the eyes,
and if swellings exist open with a
sharp knife. Use Boracic Acid :solu-
tion or potassium permanganate
solution or argyrol solution (10 per
cent.) as a wash for the nostrils and
eyes. Such can be applidd with a
medicine dropper or the bird's head
:nay be dipped in the solution. If
birds do not make good recovery in
a reasonable time it is best to de -
the electric power if it could be had.
Wehope this matter will be taken up
at once. Three electric motors are
now in use in Winghani and they are
giving splendid satisfaction, but hav-
ing only night power makes their use
very inconvenient.
