A poultry notice warns that tapeworms can rapidly establish in a flock if unchecked. The article stresses preventive measures and early detection to protect birds and egg production.
Editor notes this is the next feature in a 52 part series on poultry raising by national authority Dr L D LeGear of St Louis. Readers are urged to read carefully and clip for future reference.
The article explains common and two troublesome tapeworms in poultry, their hiding in chicken intestines, and how to identify and remove them through post-mortem checks. It notes tapeworms require an intermediate host and outlines transmission via infected eyes, flies, and earthworms. It also mentions related worm risks in poultry.
An advertising feature touts Sargon as a health remedy with claims of restoring thousands of weak and sick people. It cites massive sales in California Kansas City Minneapolis St Paul Texas and other regions, noting nationwide demand and international interest as the product gains fame.
Dr LeGear outlines a method to reduce tapeworms in flocks by removing manure and decayed material from runs, using Kamala as a treatment in measured doses after testing a few birds. Emphasizes sanitation, lime coating, disinfection, and rotating crops to deter flies and improve flock health.
Daily manure hauling confers multiple benefits for dairies. It reduces fly breeding and control costs, improves barnyard cleanliness and appearance, and minimizes losses from leaching and fermentation by removing waste promptly. A prominent dairyman cites fly control as a primary justification.
