Fowls with Diseased Liver 
I have a flock of White Leghorn liens 
that are dying. I do not know the cause. 
1 have examined a few of them; the liver 
has white spots on it. That was the only 
trouble 1 could find. Can you fell me the 
cause and a remedy? ,t. c. M. 
King Ferry, N. Y. 
Whitish or yellowish spots on the liver 
are caused by tuberculosis, in which the 
fnw I dies in an emaciated condition; by 
eoeeidiosis. in which there is diarrbu’n 
and gradual failing in flesh and si l ength, 
autl by aspergillosis, in which there are 
symptoms of pneumonia preceding death. 
Where now and then a fowl dies and is 
found, upon being picked up, to have 
wasted away and become light, the dis¬ 
ease responsible is very likely to have 
been tuberculosis of some of the internal 
organs, and to have existed without the 
ponltryman’s notice for a considerable pe¬ 
riod of time. Other more or less chronic 
diseases may have been present, how¬ 
ever. M. B. D.
