 Some recommend a timothy head from which the sedds 

 have been remoA'ed by rolling between the hands or 

 by shaking-, but tliis is so large that it is difficult to 

 use it except in mature fowls. For chickens, the pro- 

 jections on the lower part 

 of the timiothy head may 

 be removed and onl}' those 

 on the tip alloAved to re- 

 main. This appliance has 

 the advantage over the 

 horse hair and feather 

 that its siharp s])ines oi' 

 hooks are miore likely to 

 adhere to the worm and 

 permit its removal. Some- 

 times oil or turpentine are 

 applied to these various in- 

 struments before they are 

 introduced into the wind- 

 pipe. It is advised in some 

 cases to cause the diseased 

 fowls tO' inhale tlie smoke 

 of tobacco. This is done 

 by ])lacing them in a 

 closed box and blowing 

 smoke into it from a pipe.
