Writers in the poultry press, in telling what remedies to give, often say, I gave three doses of 'something,' and cured the bird. Many letters have I received asking, How much, and how often shall I give the medicine? It is hoped that the directions here given are plain on these points.A severe illness of a bird, even though it apparently recovers, reduces its value. Throughout these pages it is prevention of disease, rather than cure, that is emphasized. First, how to avoid; second, how to cure.Our birds are at our mercy, and if disease appears in the flock, commonly, it is because of sins of omission or commission on the part of the owner.If the ideas here presented shall lead to more healthy birds - increased profit - the book will have accomplished its mission.
