Brooder stoves

The Provincial Department of Agriculture Policy on Brooder llnuses is still in effect. The lttlillfy states that if a man buys fl new brooder stove and has a <allSiaCLOl'y broader house. a re- bate amounting to one-half the cost of the stove up to the amount nt 312 will be paid. The depart- ment reallzes'thst chickens must be properly brooded and cared {or during the first six weeks. This policy therefore promotes the Poultry Industry‘ by 1mPI'0V1nK the quality of chicks produced.

Coccldiosls

ruccidiosis is a disease caused lw a microscopic one-celled para- site There are eight different sprcics of this parasite which may affect chickens. Of these 8 two are more deadly than the rest. The infection caused by the two most serious types of the Cocridiosls "parasite results in death more often than do in- Icctions caused by the other six. in both of these there is passage of blood with the droppings. In one form. blood-stained material Will he found in_the Ceca; while in the other there is a severe and extensive inﬂammation of the intestines. The other six types of the infection in chickens do not result in such a high‘ death rate. but they cause sufficient damage in warrant the adoption of some romcdial measures as soon as they have been diagnosed.

Three or four species of the parasite affect turkey poulta, sometimes resulting in heavy los- ses. in the goose there are three intestinal species. we of which are capable of causing severe in-

'which is found_ in the kidney. Only one species has been describ- ed affecting ducks. Other birds affected with their own particular species of the. parasite include pheasants. grouse. and peafowl.

The disease is transmitted by means of feed. water, litter and soil that have become contamin- ated with the dioppingg of infect- ed birds. The parasites can be carried considerable distances in running water or on dust. shoes, utensils. sacks or other articles. infection may also be brought in by new birds. rats, mice. wild- birds. flys or insects. in-an out- break of Coccldiosls the parasites are most numerous under perch- es, brooding canoples and in and around drinking fountains and feed hoppers.

When passed in the droppings the eggs of the parasites are no!‘ infective, and require about 18 hours under favorable conditions of moisture and warmth to de- velop into the infective stage. if these infective oocysts or eggs are swallowed by a susceptible bird, they pass through various other stages in the bird, during which time the damage is done. The ability to reproduce is enormous since each oocysts is considered capable of producing 900.000 de- scendants.

symptoms

The disease seldom occurs in chicks or poults younger than two weeks of age. Most of .the worst outbreaks occur when the birds are four to eight weeks old. Bloody droppings are seen when the chicks are infected with the cecal type of the disease, and to a less extent in any of the other types. it is important to remember that an infestation of Coccidlosts can be present without bloody drop- pings.- Chickens badly affected with either of these types die very soon after symptoms are first noticed. and quite fre1uently the death rate is high.

In the less acttle infections diarrhoea. and periods of delec- tion are observed. The comb and wattlea are pale. Weakness, lame- ness and a partial paralysis are rgcftidced in many of the affected

r a.

Diagnosis

Only the cecal form occuring in chicks can be positively dig‘. nosed without making a mis- roscopical examination of the cecal or intestinal contents.

Therefore. as soon as the symp- toms are observed or the suspic- ions of the owner are aroused an accurate diagnosis should be made immldiliely. before treatment is commenced. This service is of- fered free of charge to all poul- try °_Wn_ers in the Province at the Provincial Agriculture Laboratory or through your District Veter- inarian.

It has been my good fortune through the months in New York, to meet. a number of outstanding writers. Perhaps they cannot be classed as great writers, but they are still young and may leave work of lasting value. One thing they all made clear: writing of fine quality requires unlimited time and labor. even where there is talent and where there is genius, too. Those biographere who stres- sed the human weaknesses of some truly great writers, were people of narrow heart and narrow vision. -.'f‘ha time left for self-indulgence must have been insignificant for those writers compared to the long periods of self-discipline required for their work; their frailties were a minor part of the hearts and minds that'added to the sum of beauty and understanding.

Space permit.s me to discuss brief- ly only.three of the writers 1 met: Carson Mccullera, Margaret Halsey and Tennessee Williams.

. o .

Carson Mccullers is the author of the play you have all heard about even if you haven't had the opportunity to see lt—“'I‘he Mem- ber of the Weddlng." This is the story of a twelve—yesr old orphan- ed girl who persuades herself that she will be asked along or. her brothers honeymoon. Isn't she "a member of the wedding?" At- most as important is the colored woman who has given the lonely child all her love and has tried to guide her: in the way a white zhild should grow.

Carson Mccullers said it took her five years to write the book upon which the play is based. she had to live the lives of each of her characters; had to choose the words and acts that would carry their lives to the reader and obser- ver. I saw the play and think she succeeded.

If you wish to get the flavor and depth of her writing, read the short story, "The Jockey." It will interest those who follow horse- racing, particularly. It is includ- ed in a pocket book edition of "Fifty Great Short: 3torie.s"—a Bantam book.

Miss Mccullers herself is unfor- gettable. she is still in her thirties and is suffering from a disease that has almost completely para- lyzed her. Yet her entire outlook is filled with hope; her comments were illumined by a. flashing wit.

In much lighter vein. though just as true, are the works of Margaret Halsey. Probably many of you have read, “With Malice Toward Some" a gay narrative of her experiences

Card Of Thanks

The family of the late Mrs. James Mci-(ertns. of Ncwtown Cross. wishes to thank all those who contributed spiritual and floral offerings: also all those who in any way, by acts of courtesy and helpfulness. paid their respects to the deceased on the occasion of her death and burial.

in lngland where her husband was a professor at a small college in Devonahire. This description of some of the passengers on the boat going to England will give you an idea of the skill that oomu from long thought and practice: There was "a large group of beau- tlful shining looking young people who generally travel about in fly- ing wedge and whose voices are distreasingly reminiscent of seagulls discovering floating orange peel." I like her description of “Old beaches of Falstaifian Glrth.“ She is a warm person, thoughtful. yet full of humor. 2

Tennessee Williams wrote the play, "Btreel: Car Called Desire."' far better known for its sema- tionalism than its profound un- derstanding and careful work- manship. I saw it and found it almost unbearably true and piti- ful. Mr. Williams is in his thirties and may write greater plays. l-ie too spoke oi.’ years of tail before, a work seems to express the exact‘ meaning of its creator. Mr. W11-‘ llama la a short, small-featured. young man, who manages to leave an impression of the intell- ectual strengtn and purpose back of his work. _ 3
