tion. They worked reasonably well, but 
sometimes there would be the usual brood¬ 
er trouble; lamps going out, or smoking, 
or heat running up too high, or not high 
enough, and once I just escaped setting 
the brooder house on fire. All this was 
avoided by using the hens for brooders, 
and the chicks seemed to me to be more 
healthy, and to thrive better. I set my 
incubator at the time I set the hens, so 
as to bo sure that all the hens would have 
a full complement of chicks. I haven’t 
told the whole story yet. Perhaps I may 
have more to say in another number.

Controlling Diarrhoea in Fowls 
Mrs. W. P., Ohio, asked recently for 
diarrhoea remedy for fowls. I have tried 
and always use the following combination 
for chicks. From time they are hatched 
until they are half grown, uo water that 
is not mixed with sufficient permanganate 
of potash to color it a deep pink and all 
the thick sour milk they will clean up for 
the first few weeks. I might also say that 
I never lose a chick, if is so seldom I have 
any that are affected. I have also stopped 
all diarrhoea affections of full-grown 
fowls by the same treatment. Another 
very important thing to remember is fre¬ 
quent cleansing of containers. The above 
has been used on chicks I have bought at 
various places and some that came on 
the faim with the disease. E. G. s. 
The use of sour milk as described is un¬ 
doubtedly one of the best preventives of 
diarrhoea and other digestive troubles in 
young chicks that we have, acting, not 
only through its lactic acid content to at 
least retard the development of mischief 
making organisms in the intestinal tract, 
but. also as a food of great value in stim¬ 
ulating the growth and resistive power of 
the chick. Permanganate of potash is an 
old remedy, formerly much used in the be¬ 
lief that its germ destroying power was 
effective in preventing infection. As this 
power is comparatively weak and easily 
destroyed by contact with organic matter, 
the writer has always doubted whether 
any solution of the substance that would 
be taken by fowls had any very real vir¬ 
tue as a disinfectant. It has been “highly 
recommended,” however, aud much used.

Lame Pullet 
Referring to item headed “Leg Weak¬ 
ness” on page 76 of your issue of Janu¬ 
ary 10, 1920. I have a Barred Rock pul¬ 
let seven months old which, from exami¬ 
nation, I expected would be laying soon, 
but she has practically the same symp¬ 
toms as the chickens referred to on page 
70. except that only one side is affected. 
This pullet can hop on her left leg with 
some assistance from the right leg. Her 
right leg appears very weak and her right 
wing droops. She is a very pretty, light¬ 
weight Barred Rock. She has not been 
<> erfed, and used to fly like a bird. Her 
plumage is fine, aud her general appear¬ 
ance is excellent. She sits in a large 
nest in the cellar all the time, moving 
around very little, and eating nothing ex¬ 
cept what I place in her mouth. Have 
you any advice in this case? Perhaps 
she has rheumatism. E. S. W. 
I would advise administering a dose or 
two of worm medicine to this pullet, in 
the hope that it would remove the cause 
of her trouble and save the bird. Of the 
general worm remedies, spirits of turpen¬ 
tine is one of the best. It may be given 
in dosage of from one to three teaspoon- 
fuis, either alone or diluted with an equal 
amount of some bland oil. It is best 
given through a soft rubber catheter that 
has been well oiled aud passed down to 
the bird’s crop. A dose of an equal 
amount of castor oil some hours later will 
help to expel any worms that have been 
loosened by the action of the turpentine.

Poor Color in Leghorns 
I have been breeding White Leghorns 
for several years, and have developed a 
strain of quite remarkable layers. I have 
one pullet that began laying Nov. 3, 1918. 
and to date has laid 247 eggs by trap-nest 
record. Another yearling has just laid 
1S7 eggs, that is from Nov. 15, 1918. She 
began laying Nov. 15, 1917, and laid 237 
eggs that year. I consider her my best 
bird and expect some wonderful results 
from pullets from her eggs, as she will 
be mated to a cockerel from a 2S4-egg dam 
mated to bird from 273-egg hen. I have 
full sister to this bird, 192 eggs pullet 
year, 173 this year, about through molt¬ 
ing, and in her new feathers she is a dirty 
white. Some pullets are quite discolored. 
As a pullet she was quite brassy in color, 
hut I am mire of her being a full blood. 
Would you use her in breeding pen? I 
would like to get some of the readers’ 
opinions on this question. C. F. W. 
When either a pullet or a hen of this 
variety grows new feathers they usually 
show more or less yellow pigment until 
the feathers are full grown. When the 
feathers are mature this yellow pigment 
gradually disappears, and we would not 
think of retaining a pullet for a breeder 
which continued to show a dirty white or 
brassy color, no matter what her record 
or her sister’s record might be. It is a 
hard and fast rule in breeding that all 
undesirable birds must be eliminated if 
we ever expect improvement in our flocks, 
and no one can be very proud of a flock 
of White Leghorns unless they are white 
in color. c. s. o. 
Let This Powerful Heater 
Increase the Charm and 
Comfort of YOUR Home 
AWAY-below-zero weather will not 
bother you—will not make your rooms chilly or 
uncomfortable if you install in your cellar this sturdy 
STEWART Onepipe —the furnace that is right now so suc¬ 
cessfully and satisfactorily heating hundreds and hundreds of homes. 
Out of the way, down cellar, is the proper 
place for the home heating plant. This convenience 
is now available for farm homes. The construction of 
this new furnace is such that no heat is allowed to escape 
into the cellar, so that vegetables, fruits, etc. stored therein will be per¬ 
fectly safe—no danger of spoiling. 
The Stewart Onepipe is not expensive 
to buy—and users say it saves them 14 to V2 on 
fuel besides supplying MORE HEAT. You wouldn’t be 
without this furnace another day if you realized how much 
its service would add to the attractiveness, cleanliness, comfort and enjoy¬ 
ment of your home.
