CHICKeNs AND CHICKEN CHOLERA.
Meat of the sic^nos of chickens is
caused by filth, neglect anil want of
proper care and attention, Wherever
you find healthy fowls you will sec that
they are pioperly;attended to and pro
vided for by-their owners. A dirty pan
or fowl trough is not suitable for them
to drink from ; a house tilled with Hcc
is no place for t hem to roost in ; sour,
wet dough is, not suitable food for them.
If you desire healthy chickens give them
pure, fresh water, a clean house to live
in, and good food to eat If you wish
well flavored eggs, keep your hens away
from manure piles and hog pens, and-
give them sound grain, permitting them
also to run on grassiots. Give.them rich
food and they will give you well colored,
nice eggs. Wheat and corn will give the
egg a good color.
’/ For chicken cholera give fat bacon,
chopped fine and sprinkled plentifully
- with black pepper. A tablespooful

chitken morning and evening. No
other food is necessary. For young
