Increasing diseases in 1968
were: Fatty Liver, Conyzo and

still come down with the di

respiratory disease, you should
get your birds to the laboratory
immediately,” he said. He re*
commended the Penn State
vaccination program where you
vaccinate every three months,
as very good.
We always get Newcastle out

is getting low from the fall
housing vaccinations.
