ease without handling a single
bird may be just around the cor-
ner. In ;fact, if you live in cer-
tain states, it may already have
arrived,
The spray method of vaccina-
tion is already in limited use in
Delaware, Georgia, Maine, Mas-
uachusetts, Texas, Virginia, Wash-
ington, and possibly one or two
Other states. It's also being tried
out in Canada,
The new system isn't perfected.
•enough yet for individual poultry-
men to use. 1Viostly, it's being
used either by college poultry-
men or hatchery operators.
The main thing that seems to
be holding it up is that we don't
yet have the right kind of equip -
anent for spraying, It's a tough
engineering problem to come up
with • a device that will produce
.a fine enough mist in measured
amount,.
.
Most of the vaccine being used
is regular intra -nasal vaccine,
though it's likely that special
types of vaccines will also be de-
veloped before too long,
Here's how sprayed vaccine has
worked out in some tests:
In Washington State, Dr. C.
M. Hamilton, veterinarian at the
Western Washington Experiment
Station.; has vaccinated more that
700,000 birds, all the w'ray from
Clay -old chicks to laying hens',
with good resutt:s.
e
Dr. Hamilton says that sprayed
vaccine gives as good protection
ea either the eye or nose -drop
method, He uses intra -nasal virus.
which he dilutes, and sprays with
on ordinary household insecticide
%prayer.
He sprays broiler chicks at one
-day old., and gives them a booster
;spraying at 3ei: to 4 weeks of
- ages. When they didn't get: the
booster shot, he got sonn.e out-
•bmeaks ot Newcastle starting at
five to six weeks of age.
Pullets raised for layers get a
.booster shot at the time they go
into the laying house.
*• Dr. Hamiltoai got good inamu-
etity, when, he .sprayed laying
• ltcetis. There. was no change in egg
totality, and practically no effect
• ieta the 68% rate of lay.
In Massachusetts, :Dr. Stephen
St. Hitchner, whose research
paved the way for the intra -nasal
vaccine, has been using sprayed
vaccine. mainly a:; ;r "booster"
shot.
"" rine las our late, t model equipped
with a—male back seat driver;"
h�-
These bards get v; ..r of nose -
drop vaccine when they are one
day old, Then he sprays them at
tout' weeks, and in the case ot
laying flock replacement pullets,
again just before they are housed.
When Dr..Flitchner. has used the
spray on day-old chicks, he's
sometimes Been complications
with other diseases such as bron-
chitis and chronic respiratory
disease.
Dr. Hitchner says that the dif-
ference between his results and
Dr. Hamilton's may be due to dif-
ferences in fineness of spray. or
dilution of the vaccine.
�; RC
in Canada, spray vaccination is
being used to protect chicks
against bronchitis as well as New-
castle disease.
Dr. J. F. Crawley of the Uni-
versity of Toronto reports that
vaccines for the two diseases can
be mixed and sprayed at one time,
and that one than can vaccinate
10.000 birds an hour.
However, he warns that the
bronchitis 'vaccine should be used
only on chicks that have paren-
tal immunity to bronchitis. In
other words, the hatching eggs
must. be .from hens that have
had bronchitis and recovered.
With as much experimental
work going on, both at experi-
ment stations and in private lab-
oratories, we shouldn't have to
wait too long before someone
comes up with a spray system
that everyone can use,

A Prayer For
HerMajesty
Churches of all denominations

Coronation of Her Majesty Queen
Elizabeth the Second.
Christian Scientists Welcomed
{ this occasion for joining with

for the well-being of Her Majes-
ty and of all her Realms and
Territories.
The Queen's appeal in her
Christmas message for the pray-

heartfelt and loyal response. No
one can be unmindful of the high
responsibilities Her Majesty is
called upon to carry. Christian
Scientists rejoice: with grateful

Love, and whose aid and com-
fort - make burdens light, Their
thoughts turn to the words of
• the Psalmist: "Great peace have
they which love Thy law." '
The Queen is secure in the af-
fection of her people, wherever
they may be, That God's care
and blessing may.est in :fullest
measure upon Her Majesty and
upon all the Royal Family, that
her life may be one of unclouded
