CANKER IN PIGEONS. 



With regard to that part of " A Foreignek's " article npon 

 Pigeons relating to canker, I have found the plan of removing 

 the whole of the growth at once by far the best, and imme- 

 diately well rubbing over the part the dry powdered snlphate 

 of copper, called by chemists " exsiccated." Tbe bleeding that 

 follows the removal of the exudation is immaterial ; in fact, 

 I think it advantageous, as it indicates the complete removal 

 of the growth, and will readily stop after the sulphate has 

 been applied, or if not, the perchloride of iron can be used as 

 mentioned by me when writing about Canaries. If the disease 

 has advanced into tbe throat and mouth, I should with a 

 feather apply borax dissolved in glycerine, and this i am 

 satisfied would readily cure it. 



I confess I am dubious of the efficacy o£ palling ont the tftU
