Poultry Diseases and Their Remedies ~ Paperback ~ J Gaylord Blair

Excerpt from Poultry Diseases and Their Remedies: The Cause, Symptoms, and Treatment of All Diseases Known to Poultry Poultry Diseases and their Remedies, by J. Gaylord Blair, Is the only real helpful work of this description that ever came to my attention, 1 am very well acquainted with the author and know the interest Mr. Blair took in helping poultry keepers light poultry diseases in the south and his good reputation as editor of the Question and Answer Departments of several Poultry Journals. I find no reason to change except a few of his remedies given in this book, published for the first time in 1910. Every poultry keeper can feel assured that if its a good remedy it will be found in this book. It is well to write to your favorite Poultry Journal for advice when in doubt about anything pertaining to poultry diseases etc., because new diseases are being made every month. Most all of the advertised poultry remedies give satisfaction and its a good policy to keep a supply of these on hand. Hypsulphite of Soda and Permangenete of Potash are two disinfectants that can be taken internally and a supply on hand to use when occasion calls may be the means of saving whole flocks from death. Tincture of Iodine is another remedy which has been discovered to act successfully on many ills of the chicken. Common fine table salt thoroughly mixed in the poultry feed acts as a toner; one lb. to 100 pounds of dry mash is about right.
