Male birds help to ipiead bacillary white diarrhea among poultry although the disease does spread without nicies, according to the New York state college of veterinary science at Conull ^Diversity. Until recently the cause of the spread of this disease among mature chickens has been unsolved. Experiments were conducted in which pens "Were made up of infected and non-ir. fected hens. Cock birds were placed fft some of the pens and others were maintained without ?uales. A period of months was necessary before any evidence of this dissemination / was seen. Bacillary white dlah-hea has l>eeii found to be the most widespread and .serious disease of baby rhicks. To as alst poultry men to control the disease, the veterinary college has encouraged local veterinarians to establish tab •oratories which are maintained under its supervision. These laboratories are located in Erie, Orange, Onondaga. Otsego, and Greene counties. Long Island also has a number of similar laboratories conducted on the same plan. Although testing under this plan has been in operution only one year up state and two years on Long Island nearly 1(H) Hocks h:tve been bundled Approximately 52,000 chickens* huve been tested and progress is bein;: made In lowering the amount of infection in these flocks and in decreasing the •chick mortality due to this dj^a«y. Ducks for Breeders ^ • Are Fed Differently When, ducks are raised for breed the.v are fed differently from those Intended for market. They are not forced so much as are the latter, and less fattening feed is given them. Ti e -corn meal and beef scraps are replaced to one-half the quantity used in the above raflops. The fallowing is an excellent ration: Equal parts com meal, wheat bran, green feed. 5 per cent beef scraps, and 5 per cent course sand or grit. A ration for breeding (laying) ducks Is recommended as follows: Fifty per cent by measure, corn meal; 15 per cent wheat bran: 15 per cent green feeds (cooked vegetables, such as po tatoes, turnips, etc.); 12 per cent beef scraps, and 8 per c*»nt coarse sand or grit. Mix with water to a,dry, cram My state and feed 4.wice ft riaj^nitun tog and night. ~ ^ ; • • ' V ' • •- * 1 -3L - • Proper Feed Selection for Raising Ducklings The proper selection of the feed I.: extremely Important to secure the rap- Id growth of the duck, and the ingredients of the feed must he such as will gfford a well balanced and substantial - ration. As a whole, It may be said that the rations used by the largest dock raisers are essentially the same, differing only in the quatitles used in the mixing. Investigations show the real value of the feed to be the same for producing rapid growth and early develop ment. The duckling grows twice as rapidly and is a much heavier eater than the chick, and to produce the best results its feed must be such as will be easily assimilated. Various methods of feeding are recommended for raising ducks successfully. -- * RHEUMATIC FEVER TRACED TO TEETH Scintist Tells of Tests Macle mVMelphla.--Jefferson H feareST coTlege has just completed experiments tending to prove definitely that rheumatic fever is the direct results of fbcal infections, such as Infected teeth and tonsils. \ This was achieved by managing for the first time to produde satisfactory infections artificially in animals and Studying the Immediate and sabs* qtient results. ' Dr. Virgil Holland Moon of the college laboratory announced the results and explained the methods of these experiments at clinical sessions in the amphitheater of Jefferson hospital, arranged by and for ex-internes of the Institution. He said that previous efforts at artificially Inducing chronic focal infections in experimental animals' had failed because the viruses used had been introduced under the skin by Injection. The new method employed an Infected cotton swab, which was sealed in muscles or under the skin of the animals after Incisions had been made. This set up a chronic infection, which permitted development of symptoms in the animals corresponding "nearly exactly" to the symptoms of human patients suffering from rheumatic fever. Autopsies oiT the animals proved that changes in the heart and artery tissues were identical with those found in autopsy on human rheumatic fever victims. For several years physicians have suspected the direct relation of chronic focal infections to rheumatic fever, but experimental methods never before had permitted conclusive proof of the theory. Doctor Moon said.
