Hen’s Pick One Another 
TTave you had any oxporienee with 
hens picking at tiie vent until the blood 
has startl’d? We have A few hens that 
are being picked at in this way. We 
have taken them fi’orn the flock, but 
would like to know the reason for this 
and the best preventive. We use only 
the very be.st grjide of meat scrap ob¬ 
tainable. These S. C. W. Ijeghorns are 
about nine months old and have just 
started to liiy. m. c. c. 
New York. 
This is a common trouble during the 
Winter season whi’ii fowls are closely 
confined and the feeding or withholding of 
meat .seems to have nothing to do with 
it. Watch should be kept and any in¬ 
jured or offending fowls removed from 
the flock. It is sometime.s necessary to 
turn a flock loose and let them separate 
from each other before they will forget 
their tiisti' for blood. Tlie practice once 
started i.s diflicult to overcome and care 
should be taken to nip it in the bud if 
po.ssible. jf. B. D. 
Bleaching Chicken Feathers 
'Can I bleach chicken feathers? 
Huntington, N. Y. .T. s. 
- If the feathers are .already rather 
dark, it i.s doubtful if you can impi’ove 
them mucli; if already nearly white, they 
can be bleached. First wiish twice in 
giisolino, to e.xti’iict the fat, and dry well. 
'I'lien moisten with water iind expose to 
the fumes of lairning sulphur, vva.sh 
agiiin and dry well. Or, warm the giiso- 
line washed feathers in a water solution 
of one-half of one per cent, potash per¬ 
manganate and one-half of one per cent, 
magnesium sulphate not beyoud 140 deg. 
Fhr. and clear in a warm .solution of 
one per cent, sulphuric acid. All these 
bleaching processes require- bOine prac¬ 
tice so try a small lot first. f. u. c. 
Water-glass Eggs for Market 
Would you advise “putting down” 
eggs in sodium silicate for commercial 
purposes? Are there any laws iu the 
States of New Jersey or New York pro- 
hihitting the sale of eggs preserved iu 
wiiter-gliis.s. c. S. o. 
New Jersey. 
We would not advise it, for we do not 
think the Wiiter-glass eggs Ciin compete 
in the market with cold storage. We ad¬ 
vise water-glass for home use, so as to 
save a supply of cheap eggs for use when 
fresh eggs are high in pidce, but we | 
think it would be a mistake to try to put 
such eggs on the market. You would be 
obliged to brand them “wiiter-gla.ss” and 
there are many who are suspicious of 
such eggs. We have found them entii’ely 
wholesome, but many consumers ai’e 
afr.aid of the chemicals.

Now that mating time has arrived, it’s up to you 
to see that your poultry get a tonic and internal 
antiseptics to make them vigorous and free from 
disease. Therefore, feed Pan-a-ce-a. 
In that condition your hens will lay better, you 
will get more healthy, fertile eggs and the chicks 
will stand a better show of reaching maturity. 
Therefore, feed Pan~a~ce-a. 
Dr. Hess Poultry 
PAN-A-CE-A 
It*s a Tonic—Not a Stimulant 
And, before the hatches come, I 
want to warn against gapes, leg 
weakness and indigestion for these 
ailments are responsible for half the 
baby-chick losses. Therefore, feed 
Pan-a-ce-a—it will save you these 
losses. 
My Guarantee 
So sure am 1 that Dr. Hess Poultry Pan- 
a-ce-a will help make your poultry 
healthy, help make your hens lay and 
your chicks grow, that 1 have told my 
dealer In your town to supply you on 
condition that il Pan-a-ce-a does not do 
as 1 claim, return the empty package 
and get your money back.
