ance. If removed, the .skin is found to 
ho rod and excoriated beneath them. This 
disease is contagious, and serious when 
it affects a largo part of the fowl’s body; 
it is rare, however, to find it upon the 
body before the head and neck are af¬ 
fected, It is to bo treated by isolating 
affected birds and using the ordinary 
methods of disinfection of their quarters, 
while the scabs, which are caused by a 
fungus growth, may he gently rubbed off 
with some blunt instrument and the 
places beneath painted once daily with 
tincture of iodine or with a solution of 
10 grains of corrosive sublimate in an 
ounce of water. This latter remedy is 
very poisonous, and should be used with 
caution. 
It is not at all certain, of course, that 
the disease you describe is favus, but it 
seems not unlikely from your description.

The proper dose of Epsom salts for R. 
I. Reds is 1 Vk lbs. for 100 hens. It may 
he given itl the drinking water which this 
number of hens usually drink in a day, 
or it may be mixed with the mash. Per¬ 
sonally, I think that the beneficial effects 
of Epsom salts have been somewhat ex- 
somc authorities. When liens are over¬ 
fat and out of laying condition at Ibis 
season of the year it is an expensive 
proposition to try to get them back in 
condition again in time to get: any profit 
aggerated in the past and that it is bet¬ 
ter to give salt only when there appears 
to he some good reason for doing so. and 
not feed them regularly on "general prin¬ 
ciple," or to take the place of green suc¬ 
culent feed, as has been recommended by 
out of them this year, so it would be ad¬

activities are by no means limited to in¬ 
struction in agriculture, lie helps white

walked into the court house of a little 
Southern town, dressed in an ancient 
cutaway coat and an old plug hat. evi¬ 
dently dug up for the occasion of his for¬ 
mal call on the demonstrator. Walking 
into the sheriff’s office, he removed his 
high hat. and asked: "Kin you tell me

Unusual Skin Disease 
I have killed several [Millets, about 
4 to 5 lbs. and six months old, that have 
places on their body that look like bruises 
about the size of a 10-cent piece or a 
quarter. It is scabbed over and some¬ 
what. raised above the natural body. The 
pullet in the pen acts naturally in every 
way. eats well, is in good iiesh, comb red, 
etc' One I killed had been lame in one 
foot for a week or more, and laid up to 
the time she went lame. Seeing that she 
probably would not recover and would 
only lose flesh, 1 killed her. and found 
three or four of these places described on 
her whig and back, and two or three 
more reddish looking spots that. I am sure 
would develop into such places in time. 
Wliat is the trouble? A. W. D. 
Kingston, It. I. 
This trouble may be favus, a disease of 
the skin which generally begins upou the 
comb or other parts of the head and ex¬ 
tends to the rest of the body. I t is char¬ 
acterized by raised, irregular, dirty white 
scabs upon the skin, varying in size from 
that of a pinhead to that of a dime, and 
either scattered or, in bad cases, closely 
placed. Tbe crusts may reach a thickness 
of a quarter-inch, and are depressed at 
the center, giviug a cup-shaped uppear-
