W. Howard, pastor ot the Jordan City Baptist church. Columbus, has tbe dis tinction of performing more marriage ceremonies during; the past 12 months than any minister in this section, anT possibly more than ai>y one minister in Georgia. According to one of his bors. who has kept a record, the Rev. Mr. Howard has officiated at 200 mar riage ceremoni >s during the punt year, ending with June 1. On Sunday afternoon Rev. Mr. How ard married -_.ree couples and he Is officiate at another wedding tonight. Rev. Dr. Howard, who is nearly «b years of age, says ne believes in young people marrying at an early age in life. His sentiments on the subject are well known among the young people, and this fact doubtless accounts for the minister's popularity when it comes to the marriage ceremony.

June 6,-The Hart county Chautauqua closed last Saturday night. This was one of the best ever held in Hartwell and was a success from eevry standpoint. THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, GrA„ FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1512. How to Treat Pigeons *l, JatssC have more or less of these two Ingredients in them, and in buying pigeon feed get the brand that is as free from these two grains as you possibly can. Cracked corn, whole wheat, Kaffir corn and peas are all the very best of feeds for pigeons, but wheat alone is about the best thing that can be given them. It is also a good Idea to several times during the week, espe cially through breeding season feed a small amount of hemp seed, say one handful to ten or fifteen pigeons every other day. It is very strengthen ing and is splendid for them. One of the largest pigeon breeders in the world is probably located in California and is said to keep constantly on hand from 25,000 to 50,000 breeding birds. One ton of wheat per day is required to feed these birds. They are given their freedom and have all the exercise they require and a large stream of water where they can get It at will continually near where these pigeons are kept. Most of the squabs are marketed in Los Angeles and San Francisco. This party probably has the largest flock of pigeons in the world, and has made money from this industry. The climatic con ditions there are so that his pigeons do not require close housing, and much expense in preparing to keep them and in the care of them is saved on account of being situated naturally for this business. There are but few in this section of the country who have ever at tempted breeding pigeons on a large scale. Rats, in a great many places or cities, have been a great drawback in the keeping of pigeons, and thou sands of pigeons are destroyed annually by this great enemy. A person has to be very careful about having their houses rat proof, which naturally makes it expensive to build suitable quarters on a large scale that are absolutely rat proof. There are many drawbacks, also many advantages in the keeping of pigeons and a person who likes them can get lots of pleasure, also a reasonable amount of profit out of pigeons if they like the work and will look after the little details closely. In and around the cities pigeon raising can be made far more profitable than can be done in the country because it is easier to find a market for squabs when they are just in the cities. If a person is breeding pigeons and has a wide range of friends, which the average person has in large cities, they ordi narily find considerable business among their friends and acquaintances. I know of several parties in Atlanta who dispose of their products just about as fast as they are produced, and while they do not make any large percentage of profit out of their pigeons, still they are making it pay in a small way and is a large percentage of profit on amount invested. Pigeon keeping is a splendid pastime and af fords much pleasure and amuse- C ment to the tired business man, and especially to the boys and g;irls. j Very truly yours, AM<r. Alma. Ga.: I am coming to you for a little information. I have a Jersey cow that is sick some way. She seems to be weak in her legs and she can’t hold her head still. Her head shakes like someone with the palsy. She has a young calf but to day is the first time she has acted like there was anything the matter with her. I would be glad for any Information you can give me. A SUBSCRIBER. ANSWER. The trouble with your cow is that she has what is known as milk fever or petulant apoplexy. This usually comes after the calf |s 48 hours old and In nine cases out of ten kills the cow. This kills about as many cows as any other one thing, except ticks. Air treatment of pumping the udder up with sterilised air will save them, even after they are practically dead. This Is the only way a large per cent of them can be saved. A milk tube or needle is inserted in the opening of each z tlt and air with any ordinary double pump air pressure syringe is used for this purpose. Each section of the udder is pumped up with as much air as it will hold and inside of a few hours the cow will recover. You cannot give them any thing internally that will bring relief as they are paralysed and cannot swallow and you will strangle a cow if you attempt it. There is a little instrument made by Piling & S6n, at Baltimore, which only costs $3 and Is made especially for this purpose, and has been the cause of .saving thou sands of valuable cows. Anyone keep ing a good cow cannot afford to be without this instrument at calving time. In case of emergency when this cannot be had. the old treatment for this purpose was by using an ordinary fountain syringe with a milk tube and applying one-half gallon of steril ised water In each quarter of the ud der, to which had been added one grain of iodide of potash to each quarter. The simple treatment of in flating each quarter with the air that was naturally carried on from this treatment was really the cause of the cure. An ordinary bicycle pump with a milk tube on the end can be used, but it is likely to carry some con tamination in the udder that would probably destroy it. Absorbent cotton is used to sterilise the air made by piling so as to prevent this trouble, but rather than to lose the cow which is sure to happen if not treated, it is better to resort to the bicycle pump or the ordinary fountain syringe and administer treatment if the other cannot be had. If you had given me your name and address instead of signing “Sub scriber," I would have either- tele graphed or. written you immediately what to have done, but unless it is one case out of ten your cow will be dead before you get a reply through the paper, as it -usually kills in ten hours after being affected. However, I hope such is not the case with your cow. . Pelham, Ga.—-Can you tell me what is the matter with my chick ens? They will be taken sick and will not live over forty-eight hours. They seem to have a bowel trou ble, their mouths will be full of saliva and they seem to be so heavy in their hind parts that they can t walk well. It has struck my grown hens and I have lost lots of them just that way. It seems as If it is sure death. Can you tell me what is the matter and what to do for them, as 1 am much inter ested in this matter. I will appre ciate your answer. Yours very truly. , JENNIE WEST. ANSWER. Your chickens have what is known as limberneck. This is caused by eating putrid matter of some kind and it is sure death un less treated at once. Put your chickens where they can not get anything except good sound, whole some food to eat. or where they will not come in contact with this putrid matter, and you will have no trouble with them. A friend of mine last week plow ed up his garden where during the spring several chickens had been burled in this garden. His chick ens followed the plow and while ANOTHER very important thing in keeping pigeons in the best of health is to have a tub or basin for them to bathe in which should be filled with fresh water and kept constantly before them. Occasionally a small amount of carbolic acid should be put in this water as it keeps the insects off and also keeps the water puri fied. Pigeons should be fed on a plank floor or a plank platform or table, especially if they are con fined in close quarters, as it is un healthy and unsanitary for them to pick their food up off of the same ground that they are constantly confined on, and a floor or shelf made especially for this purpose in pigeon runs is very essential. A great many people are almost compelled to us« feeds that are not the very best to feed their pigeons on, as there are but few dealers who keep a regular stock of pigeon food. Oats and barley are not the best of feeds for pigeons, and most of the pigeon feeds that are on the market today » \NSWEREI). from the outside appearance you could see nothing of the chickens that had been buried, still the chickens found enough of this poisonous matter to eat it, and the day following and the day after that a large per cent of his chick ens were dead from this trouble, which is ptomaine poison, or more commonly known as limberneck. If you can get Conkey s Cure into their systtem before they are too far gone it will save them for you. Rochelle, Fla.—PleAse give me the cause and remedy for my little chick ens. They seem perfectly healthy until they are about two weeks 'old. Then they seem to get weak and only live for about two days afterwards. They eat heartily until the very last and seem to b hungry- all the time. I feed on corn meal, grits and shorts and keep fresh water for them all the time. I have taken off over 150 this spring and haven’t over 25 now out of the 150. What I have don’t seem to thrive at all. ANSWER. There is evidently something wrong with the management of your chick ens, or something probably that you have not discovered that is killing them. The feed that you are giving would not cause the trouble, but it Is not a balance ration and should have some oat meal mixed with it. They should have at least two feeds each day of little chick feed, in addition to the grits and shorts. Grits and shorts alone are not a good feed to start little chickens off on. and they must have some other food to keep their digestive organs in good condi tion. After they are some weeks old they shou'd have gept before them at all times two parts bran and one part commercial meat scraps, or Aunt Patsey poultry feed dry, but you should continue giving the little chicks grain until they are large enough to eat. The most critical time is when they are about two weeks old, as they begin to shed the down and take on a coat of feathers. This Is a ter rible drain on their system and they must have plenty nourishing food at this time. I am inclined to believe that your little chickens either have lice, mites or Texas fleas on them, and it is most likely that they are sappping the life out of them and causing the loss. ■ .«* Tupelo, Mias. —I have a pen of R. C. Black Minorcan. seven pullets and one hen mated to a cockerel. Their eggs do not hatch £ood, one and three out of every setting. I have set 112 and got 16 chicks. They die in the shell at different sizes. Some pip the shell and then die, and some die awful small in the shell. I have them in a yard something like 25 feet square and feed them scratch feed. Keep oyster shell, grit and charcoal in their pen all the time. The cockerel now has something like the coupe, and has had it four weeks. I gave him germazone, but it does no good. He can’t cackle and can’t hardly crow. He eats hearty all the time. The eggs were laid before he took that disease. Will you please tell me what to do for them and what is the mater with their eggs? They are a very fine pen, won several prizes at Tupelo, December, 1911, first cockerel, first hen and first, second, third and fourth pul let. Thanking you for any informa tion you can give, 1 am. Yours truly, H. S. LAMB. ANSWER. I think the cockerel’s condition has kept your eggs from hatching. It would be best to take him out of the pen, give him extra good feed and care and a good free range. Get you another cockerel to head the pen. When a male bird is sick or under the weather it is impossible to get good strong chickens from him, or a big per cent to hatch. LaGrange, Ga.—l wish to ask you in regard to my Indian Runner duck lings. Last Sunday I took off 12 ducks out of 12 eggs and they were doing fine until a few days ago, when one began to look drowsy and sleepy and did not get around like the others. I caught him and gave h|m some cream and black pepper, with a few grains of Epsom salts in their drinking wa ter, but this seemed to do no good so 1 gave him some more cream and pepper and the next morning he was dead and since then three more have died. Upon examination I found that their bowels seemed to be locked. Last year I hatched off eight ducks and raised every one of them with out any trouble, with the exception of one that was something like the ones that have died this year, which I cured -with cream and pepper. I feed iny ducks the first time when they are 36 hours old on stale bread and sweet milk and continue this for four days. Then give them wheat bran, corn meal and shorts, always covering feed with sand. The drinking water is kept in a shallow pan with a small mesh wire over ■pan to keep them out. These ducks have had a comfortable house with sand floor. Any information will be greatly ap preciated. R. S. PATTILLO. ANSWER. I do not think it a good idea to give medicine, or anything else to little ducks or chickens as it will come nearer killing them than curing them. Sometimes a brood of ducks are naturally hatched off weak, coming often from weak parent stock and will not live under any kind of treat ment. A little vaseline given each of your ducks that are effected would do more good than anything else. The feed you are feeding is all right, provided the bread is not moldy and the milk is absolutely sweet. They should not have water before them at all times. Give it to them while eating and it should be removed af terwards. Leesburg, Fla.: Note in The At lanta Journal that you would kind ly give dealers advice free as to the different diseases, etc., of poul try. I hope you will pardon us but we are anxious to And out what to do for our poultry in Florida. This is a disease common for the last three years all over the state. 1 think it is green disentery or diarrhoea, as it affects the bowels with a frequent discharge of green ish, white, and yellow discharge. The animal keeps a good appetite all the time, but gets weak in the legs. It is not heavy, as only one or two (out of about 50) have it at a time, but as fast as one gets well another gets it and it takes about six weeks for a fowl to have it and get well. I have given pills, Epsom salts and next day sulphur and pills of charcoal but can’t say any hav». done much good. Have lost only a few but they get very thin and droop for weeks. If you will suggest something to do, I will appreciate same. I keep the place thoroughly disinfect ed, use some in drinking water, keep basins clean and houses, give them sprouted oats, chick feed, scratch feed, soaked oats, bran mash, corn, wheat, shell, lime, crushed stone, poultry powders, etc. The little chicks are not the ones affected but it is old ones. I had several letters from my trade last year about this disease in Florida points, all affected like mine. 1 advised them to write to you. Please advise me what to do and hoping to see and meet you person ally some time and when I come to Atlanta this year will try to come out and see your farm, I am WHITE ROCK POULTRY FARM, By SLIGH, Prop. ANSWER. The trouble that you refer to, I am confident is indigestion. Prob ably it Is caused from the birds getting too much of some kind of feed or something that is grown in your section that upsets their system. In feeding the sprouted oats, you should be very careful that they are not moldy. Often if a bird eats .enough sprouted oats that have molded or decayed oats in them, it wilj tear their digestive organs up and it will be some time before they will recover from it. Bran mash alone is not a balance ration. It is too coarse and is not gooa to feed your chickens by itself. It should be mixed with corn meal, shorts, alfalfa meal, some charcoal and some meat scraps. At least twice a week, a lump of copperas about half- as large as the end of your thumb should be put in one gallon of drinking water for them. It acts on their system and gives them a good appetite. It is sometimes possible that an oiu bird will become thoroughly infested with insects and this will run them down in flesh. When any chicken gets out of condition, they will naturally have diarrhoea. When tneir liver fails to act they can not digest their food. Sulphur, fed twice a week to old chickens (one tablespoonful to eight or ten chickens) acts on their liver and keeps them in good condition, but should not be fed constantly. Any chicken that becomes affect ed in this way should be removed from the others and put off in a separate place where they can get the food that you want them to have. If taken in time, the minute you see one out of condition and go to work on it you can often save a great many birds that would oth erwise go to pieces. I will be glad to have you come out to see me this summer while in Atlanta and we can talk further about this trouble. Rock Hill. S. C.— Please give me by return mail what is the matter with my chickens and what to do for them. About six weeks ago I had a hen to show up with the side of her head swol len to such an extent that her eye was entirely closed. The swollen part seemed to center just below the eye. It was hard and in the shape of an abscess. Her comb, eyelids and the whole side of her head was red or rosy. It did not fester. A little watery discharge would come from her eye and nose. No treatment did any good. It gradually went away without af fecting the eye, only left it small er than the other. I now have a rooster affected in the same way, only his is in both sides of his head. His eyelids are a bluish color as if they had been bruised. His comb and gills are bright red. The comb is sore in one place and has a thick scab on it. My young chickens are affected in the same way. Their eyes are entirely closed and they die by the half -dozen a day. I also had a hen to become paralyzed or something like it last week. Found her in the yard. She could not walk a step, could not use her legs at all and they seemed to draw back under her. Any information in regard to the above will be greatly appreciated. Yours very truly, T. G. HOPE. ANSWER. Your chickens are evidently af fected with roup, which is a bard propositiion to deal with. You should divide them up in smaller flocks and mo'-e them to new quar ters. Kill a«i those that are badly affected and try to save those that gUTwMODILF. COLLEGE. 23 E. Cain St.. At fan: ! ta, Ga.

This trouble has been caused by either sleeping in damp quartern or in too close quarters or where a draft has been blowing on them. When it start# in a flock it usually goes through all of them. You should v»e one-half grain of pomanganate of potash in their drinking water (one gallon) every day for them to drink, or Conkey’# Roup Cure. All chickens that are frying size or older should be dipped during some warm day in a solution of one part Bee Dee or Chlo-Naptholeum Dip to 75 parts of water. They should be fed good sound grain food out of a trough and just what they will eat up clean. Once a day feed a mash of equal parts of bran, shorts and corn meal made up Frith milk and Barker's Condition Powders as per directions on package. Kirkwood, Ga.—Will you kindly pub lish a treatment for vent gleet. I suppose that is what I want. I have a rooster about three years old (Buff Orpington) that will stand and strain as though constipated, will keep this up for several days and finally seem to get over it and will appear all right for several days. He has been this way for several months. The skin below the vent is a deep red, as If almost blistered and the feathers are soiled. I w'ill appreciate your advice for treatment of above. Also if the eggs by him in this condition are worth hatching. Yours truly, E. D. ANSWER. As a rule, either a hen or a rooster that becomes affected as the one you mention, the best thing to do with them is to kill them as I do not be lieve there is any possible cure for them and it is taking a great chance by breeding from such a bird. The only treatment that can be given is to Inject a small amount of castor oil in the parts effected every day. The bird would be unfit to breed from while being treated.
