Doctoring Chickens 
The following Spartan-like advice is 
given by the management of the Connec¬ 
ticut egg-laying contest at Stores: 
There is a general agreement among 
authorities that the doctoring of poultry 
is not to be recommended except in case 
of a few diseases such as chicken pox. 
colds and cases of intestinal worms. 
There are two very good reasons for this 
belief: First, the unit of production of 
the individual bird is so small on the 
commercial plant that if a man’s time is 
worth anything it is too valuable to spend 
treating sick chickens individually unless 
they are show specimens of great individ¬ 
ual value. Second, the cured chicken is 
always a menace to the health of the 
flock, because its identity is likely to be 
overlooked or forgotten, and it goes into 
the breeding pen and may perpetuate 
through the offspring that constitutional 
weakness that was one of the primary 
causes of its being ill. The opinion of 
practically all poultrymen who rear large 
numbers of fowls is that in a large pro¬ 
portion of cases of diseases the birds 
ought to be killed. The only treatment 
recommended for the poultryman is to 
give treatment when it can be applied to 
a flock conveniently and with reasonable 
expectation of beneficial results. Treat 
individuals only when the treatment is 
simple, easy and needs to be administered 
but a very few times.
