A farm reports an outbreak of chicken cholera in April 1894 with several birds dying. Treatment included Epsom salts, oral irrigation, isolation, sunlight exposure, and disinfection with sulfuric acid solution. Birds were sprayed and water treated with carbolic acid while asafectida was added to feed.
