To relieve hens of eggs broken in the oviduct, anoint the forefinger with sweet oil and deftly insert and draw out the broken parts. When the hen is very fat and the egg is so large it cannot be expelled, the only way to save the hen is to break the egg and remove it as above directed. WHITE-COMB OR SCURVY, caused by crowded and filthy quarters and lack of green food. The comb is covered with a white scurf. This condition sometimes extends over the head and down the neck, causing the feathers to fall off. Change the quarters and diet, give a dose of castor oil and follow this with a half a teaspoonful of sulphur in the soft food daily. RHEUMATISM AND CKAMP caused by cold and dampness. Chicks reared on bottom-heat brooders are particularly subject to these troubles. Damp earth floors and cement floors in poultry houses produce it in older birds. Give dry and comfortable quarters, feed little meat, plenty of green food, and soft feed seasoned with red pepper.

FROSTED COMB AND WATTLES.—As soon as discovered bathe with compound tincture of benzoin. FOR LICE on perches, walls and coops, use kerosene or lime wash. To make the lime-wash more effective, pour a little crude carbolic acid on the lime before slaking or mix with plenty of salt. For use in nests, pour crude carbolic acid on lime and allow it to air-slake. Put one or two handfuls of the carbolized lime dust in the nest box. Pyrethrum powder kills by contact and is effective for dusting in nests, and through the feathers of birds. Its judicious use in the plumage and nests of sitting hens will insure immunity from lice for the hen and her young brood. Chicks and poults are often killed by targe lice that congregate about the head, throat, vent and wings. To destroy them, soak fish berries in alcohol, take the birds from under the mothers at night and slightly moisten the down of the infested parts with the poison.
