CARE OF POULTRY
NOW WILL LESSEN
WINTER DISEASES
j
Cold and Roup Prevented by
Housing the Chicks Early
and by Cleansing the Build
ings Thoroughly
By A. C. Smith
Head of the Department of Poultry i
Husbandry, University of Minnesota.
COPYRIGHT, 1915.
I'pon the rare given tlie poultry at
this season depends largely the condi
tion of the flock during tyinter. In
tills article Professor Smith offers
practical suggestions for the preven
tion of disease, and gives directions Tor
preparing a simple tonic that will ward
off disease. He gives practical advice
for the Fall care of both old and young
stock.
THE beginning is half the whole,"
as an old Greek adage says. As
we trace bacjt the failures of
several undertakings In poultry cul
ture with which we are familiar, the
conclusion forced upon us with strik
ing emphasis Is that most, if not all,
of them are due to poor starts.
Fortunately, however, a poultryman
Is permitted to make a new start every
twelve months. The start, however,
does not coincide with the beginning
of the calendar year, but may be con
sidered as beginning about this time;
that is, the poultryman's year begins
when he places his young stock in
laying quarters. His success depends
upon the amount of the winter prod
uct, and that in turn depends upon
the condition of his stock in the early
Fall, which is without question the
most critical time for the commercial
poultryman.
Errors of judgment and negligence
in the care of stock result not only in
loss of profits a little later, but often
In endangering the health of the flock
as well. Even if large losses by death
are not incurred, production is cur
tailed, cares are multiplied and ex
penses increased accordingly. Under
such conditions the ordinary poultry
man becomes discouraged.
Banger of Diseases Xow
The subject of diseases is particu
larly appropriate at this season, since
they are more apt to be prevalent now
than at any other time. The owner
of a healthy flock is usually pestered
at this time by neighbors who are un
able to avoid the usual troubles of the
season and want to know how he cures
colds, roup or canker; how he kills
lice or mites, and how he makes his
hens lay. These and similar questions
are propounded to him dailv, while
the truth is that the successful poul
tryman euros little, but prevents much.
Cures mean increased labor and re
duced production; prevention means
reduced labor and increased produc
tion.
To the poultryman, starling the new
year right means starting the Fall lay
ing flock right. First, the chicks must
have been hatched at the proper time,
as late-hatched chicks are more sub
ject to disease than those hatched
earlier, which are consequently more
mature and more hardy. Again,
chicks must be grown upon proper
range and with good care.
Amateur Poaltrymen
Have Good
Opportunities
"The Growing Importance of
Amateur Poultry Raising" Mil be
discussed next week by Reese V.
Hicks, former president of the
American Poultry Association. Mr.
Hicks will discuss the economic
phases of this branch of the pouU
try industry and will give sugges
tions as to how the amateur may
start with limited capital and
achieve success. He will point out
the difficulties to be overcome and
the dangers to be avoided. Watch
tor his article in next week's issue.
EXPLODES AFTER 50 YEARS
Bomb Supposed to Have Been Fired
by Sherman's Army
Special to The Telegraph
Chattanooga, Tenn., Oct. 2. A big
bombshell, probably tired into Chat
tanooga by Gen. Sherman's invading
army, exploded this morning at a local
brake shoe and foundry company's
plant.
A section of the smelting department
was wrecked, but by a miracle no one
was killed or injured. Through an
oversight the old bombshell had got
ten into a heap of scran iron, and with
the scrap iron found its way into the
big cupola furnace. Immediately a
terrific explosion occurred and about
a ton of melted and unmelted iron
went skyward.

'Tis An 111 Wind
That Blows All Harm
R (r AIN of the kind- which fell yesterday can scarcely be
termed an "ill wind" because it kept a great many
folks indoors.
» There were fewer shoppers, to be sure, and the
P small army of workmen who are dressing our store
r—- * n a new garb, seemed to glory in the fact; for
rarely have they displayed such a do-it-while-you
have-the-chance spirit.
■" Their efforts were unceasing; and results obtained
are plainly seen.
Every day couldn't be a rainy day, but if such were the case, al
terations would be completed in about half time.
We'd rather delay the completion, however, rather than stop
serving our customers if only for a single day—a working day.

Negotiations On for Month
The transactions which have been
carried on for a month or more for
the control of the Cambria Steel Com
pany were concluded yesterday.
Almost every day this week there
have been conferences between Don
ner and the various interests con
cerned in the deal. There was an
other conference yesterday, attended
by Pennsylvania Railroad officials.
From one of the latter it was posi
tively learned that any deal in Cam
bria Steel would also involve the Penn
sylvania Steel.
It has been known that the hitch in
putting through the Cambria Steel
plans has been due to the fact that
the Pennsylvania Railroad had tied
Donner up with the understanding
that if he took over Cambria he must
also take over Pennsylvania Steel.
It has also been common knowledge
that Schwab wanted the property if
for no other reason than that it com
plimented the ownership of the Spar
rows Point plant, the Maryland Steel
Company's property, which has a
large shipbuilding yard at tidewater,
making a fine base for the building of
submarines and the delivery of ores.
Until that transaction has been
closed there will probably be no an
nouncement of the taking over of the
Cambria Steel by the Donner interests,
and delay further may be caused by
the difficulties of arranging the com
plicated financial problems in connec
tion with the transfer of the Peniir
sylvania Steel property, which is bound
up with various underlying bonds.
The Reading Company is also in
vtlved the Pennsylvania Railroad
In the control of Pennsylvania Steel
stocks. The Reading is understood to
hold about one-third as much Penn
sylvania Steel as the Pennsylvania
company. The latter's holdings amount
to $9,158,300 preferred out of a total
i of $20,560,800, and $7,388,900 common
out of a total of $10,750,000.
