Treatment of Poultry.
The following rules are authoritively laid di wn

prove of value to our readers.
I . All young chickens, ducks and turkeys
should be kept under cover out of the Weather
during ibe rainy seasons.
"2. Two or three times a weeks.pepper, shallots,
skives ur gariie should be mixed up with their
food-

:•. Chickens which arc kepi from the dung-hill
while young, seldom have the gapes; therefore',
I it should lie the object •■( those who have the
j charge of them, so to eontint the hens us to pro-
}, in le their young froui the ranged barn or stable

(J. Should any ofjthe chickens have the gape-.
mix up small portions of assitirtide, rhubarb and
peper, in fresh butter, and give each chicken as
much of the mixture as will lie upon half the
bowl of a sinali teaspoon.
7. Phr the pip the following treatment is judi-cious;
take off the indurated covering on the
point of the tongue, and give twice a days, a piece
ofgarlic trie si/.e of a pea. If garlic cannot be
obtained, onion, shallot or shives will answer, and
if neither of them I iveiiient, two grains of
black peper given in fresh butter will answer.
s. i-'or the snuffle*, the same remedy as the
! gapes will be found highly curative, but in addi-r
.'11 to tins,-, it will I-' necessary to unit a little
i assafietida in fresh butter, and rub the chicken
about the nostrils taking care to clean them out.
