If tlio gardener avoids using iJie ^om'• ground two ye;irs in succession for par- -nijM. in tlie meantinio giving the ground a tlioi*ough dressing with fixssli lime, about two l-ouuds to tlio s<iuare yard being u.s<.d, the iftiiker will disappear.

This treatment will quickly ease matters and two roup pills sliould then bo given. } f tho birds are treatetl immcilialcly faulty breathing is detected, it will bo found that on an average four out of tivo birds \vill be well again in from three to .seven daya. I f tliere is a severe rattling in the throat and hard broiithing, it is advis­ able to j>aint the flesh over tlio lungs uitli tincture of arnica. To strengthen tlio sick birds stowed linseed ia very good. The linseocl sliould bo iilnccd in a saucepan and well aivorcd with cold water. • Place over a slow fi)*e, so tliat it will ju.st simmer and not l>oil, for about lialf an hour, and let tho linwKnl bo given as warm as tlie birds can take it. A sprinkling of roup jiowiler should bo addivl to the soft food in fho mornings when there are any signs of tho birds beginning witli a cold, while an occasional do.se of I^xsom s.*ilts will Ictop their systems clear «as well as adding to their Inalthincss.

Tliero sliouid always be a sick room or hos- llie


longer an ailing fowl is allowed to wander about with the remainder of the llock, tho griater are tho chances that the trouble will j sprcatl. so all sick birds ^iiojild bo immediivt<*ly ir^olnted. A ])Oultr.vinan should always have watchful eyo for tlie lio.alth of his birds,

If a good utility strain of Black Orpingtons is obtained they will ho found to be not only good layere, but very active and hardy and may witli advant­ age 1)0 cros-sed with otlicr breeds. Tlio eggs of this bird aro large and brown-tintc<l, for which there is a good sale, and when tho Idl'd is wanted for table purpose.s tliero is plenty of juicy moat on tho breast.
