Ailing Pullets 
I have a flock of about 70 P>. P. Rock 
pallets, which were hatched the first of 
April, and they are laying well now. get* 
ting ahout two dozen eggs a day. These 
birds are housed well, have plenty of ven¬ 
tilation, a good. deep, dry litter to scratch 
in. clean roosts, a balanced ration of dry 
mash and scratch grains, and plenty of 
clean water. To date I have lost 10 
birds, which get lame in one foot, which 
becomes useless in a few days, then lose 
weight, and then die. The birds all have 
bright red combs until they are affected 
about a week ; then they become so poor 
they die. What can be done? 
Connecticut. L. n. av. 
This trouble is an obscure one that, so 
far as I know, has never been satisfac¬ 
torily explained. It is usually attributed 
to heavy feeding and close confinement of 
rapidly growing pullets and cockerels, 
and it is recommended that the affected 
birds be removed from the flock and fed 
more lightly, giving plenty of green stuff 
and skim-milk, if the latter is available. 
It apparently affects the heavier breeds 
rather more severely than the lighter ones, 
but is found in flocks of any variety. 
The presence of intestinal worms in 
large numbers has recently been noted in 
many of these birds, and they are sus¬ 
pected as being the probable cause in 
many instances. I would suggest that 
you carefully open the intestinal canal of 
the next bird that dies and look for 
worms. If found in considerable num¬ 
bers the administration of one to two tea¬ 
spoons of turpentine, diluted with a little 
bland oil, to each bird may save further 
deaths. Ai. a. d. 
Mating Time 
One of the most important seasons of 
the poultry year is at hand. At mating 
time your hens and roosters should be 
in the pink of condition. Start in now to con¬ 
dition your breeding stock for the spring hatch. 
Dr. Hess Poultry Pan a ce-a 
increases the vitality of the parent stock, gives you fertile eggs, insures 
a hatch of good, strong, vigorous chicks. 
Speed up egg production during winter with Dr. Hess Poultry 
Pan-a-ce-a. It contains tonics that promote a hen’s digestion, tonics 
that tone up the dormant egg organs — so that the proper amount of 
food goes to egg production—and not all to flesh and fat and laziness— 
when it’s action and eggs you v/ant. 
Pan-a-ce-a supplies the additional iron for the blood—which is essen¬ 
tial to the speeding-up process. It contains certain forms of lime, that 
supply needed material for making egg shells. Also internal antiseptics. 
Feed Pan-a-ce-a to all your poultry to make and keep them 
healthy. The dealer refunds your money if it 
does not do as claimed. Tell the dealer how 
many fowls you have and he will tell you what 
sized package to buy. Always buy Pan-a-ce-a 
according to the size of your flock. 30c, 75c and 
$1.50 packages. 25-lb. pail, $3.00; 100-lb. drum, 
$10.00. Except in the far West and Canada.
