Ward Be- gins Systematic ‘Work to Check Stubborn Disease Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, June 30. Roup, a disease that attacks chickens | annual losses to the poultry raisers of the State, is being thoroughly investi- gated by the sclentists at the Univer- fity of California in the hope that it may be conquered. It is a disease that has long resisted the attacks of the scientific men, but it is likely to be overcome if dealt with systematically. A campaign has already been lauched’ by Professor A. R. Ward, professor of veterina: science and bacteriology, who has just returned from the poultry farms of Petaluma. It is proposed to treat all the affected chickens differ- ently, fcllowing suggestions from ex- perience and various sources. . Out of a large number of these treatments it is thought that at least one cure may be found. ‘Proféessor Ward adminis- tered to 250 chickens while at Petaluma and found that the most success was obtained by injecting kerosene Into their nostri It is by no means cer- tain, however, that kerosene reaches the disease, and it will be a long time before its efficacy, if there is any at all, is determined. Roup manifests itself by a swelling of 1s of the fowls. It is supposed caused by colds, due to im- properly ventilated ‘chicken houses. Science has not determined whether it is u contagious disease, and this wul be one of the aims of the investigation now going on. ——————— Unions Elect Officers.
