CONDITION POWDERS 73 



Flower of sulphur 1 pound 



Table salt 2 pounds 



Charcoal 2 pounds 



Fine ground oyster shell 10 pounds 



Black Pepper 5 pounds 



Flax meal 10 pounds 



Mix all together and give one tablespoonful to a dozen hens in 

 mash. The black pepper offsets the laxative qualities of the mustard 

 and blood meal, besides it is carminative and warming without being 

 too stimulating in effect.
