together with the simple bitter tonic Gentian forms a 

 prescription exceedingly valuable in the Prevention and 

 Treatment of Disease. 



The mouth and nostrils of the bird must be washed 

 out several times a day and cleansed of the roupy mat- 

 ter. Use a lotion for this purpose made by dissolving- 

 several grains of Pennanganate of Potassium in an 

 ounce of distilled water. In washing out the eyes 

 this solution must be further diluted. 



Another most excellent remedy to use as a lotion 

 in washing the mouth etc. is Peroxide of Hybrogen 

 (Merchand's.) Take a small stick with a piece of cotton 

 on one end and dip into the bottle using it pure. 

 After this has been applied several times Aristol (a 

 brown powder) should be applied to the membranes, 

 to favor healing. Aristol is the best for this purpose 

 and by applying three times daily for a few days a 

 cure is generally affected. 



DRY ROUP. 



This is a name given to another form of Roup 

 where there is no discharge from the nostrils. It is 

 less malignant than Wet Roup and is most always 

 milder. Its cause is similar to the other form, Wet 

 Roup. 



Symptoms: The symptoms are in every respect 

 the same as in the wet form with the exceptions of 

 the discharge from the nostrils. There is fever, de- 

 posits of tubercules on the membranes of the mouth 

 which loses its natural color aiid becomes somewhat 

 paler. Treatment: Same as for Wet Roup.
