BLArKHGAD IX Tl'RKEYS.
FORTUNATE is that turkey-raiser
whose flock has never beefl men
aced by blackhead. This Hercules
among ailments is formidable because
. no treatment positively counteracting
t has been discovered. It is compara
tively a recent pest. A quarter of a
century aso it was nameless. Now we
hear of its ravages from every section
where the turkey has its habitat.
Sometimes it is recognixed for Itself;
again, it is confused with some simpler
disease of similar symptoms. Prob
ably many promising flocks have suc
cumbed to an anonymous ailment un
familiar to their distressed owners, yet
wearing the livery of blackhead.
The first reports of the activity of
this disease came f rom ySouthern New
England. Massachusetts and Rhode
Island in the late '90s were beginning
to drop below their usual production
of turkeys for which they had been
famed. From estimating their ship
ment by the ton, they began to count
them by the pound. Today that New
Kngland industry is not to be compared
with its once huge proportions.
Turkey-raisers in general complained
of a fatally effectual disease which at
tacked the birds at all ages, killing off
the majority before they were 6 weeks
old. Few reached maturity. Losses
were calamitous singly and in the ag
gregate. The Rhode Island experiment
station began an Investigation. 'The
result was the first authoritative ac
count of the ailment. Their findings

Ambassador to China in place of Kki
Hloki. This appointment is regarded
as significant in view of the new
treaty between Russia and Japan
which apparently looks to the control
of China by those two countries. Baron
Hayashi Is a diplomat of much wider
experience than Mr. Hloki.
It Is not often that a busy railroad
man finds time or has the inclination
to write a book. But John Murray
Gibbon before he went with the Cana
are generally accepted. Since then the
disease has traveled to be the bane of
turkey-raisers in nearly every state.
Characteristics of Infection Given.
One need not be a pathologist to
suspect or to recognize blackhead. In
turkeys of varying ages it has various
manifestations and durations, but cer
tain symptoms are always present.
They are loss of appetite, consequent
emaciation and weakness and a white
or yellowish diarrhea. In very young
birds the heads are grayish or pale; in
those whose wattles are beginning to
color and in adults, the head turns dark
due to congestion, which gives the dis
ease its name. In a typical case,
the turkey first declines food. or picks
indifferently, and develops diarrhea.
After a day or two it gives up try
ing to follow its mates. It has a dis
tressed look and sometimes it stands
and swallows as though it were en
deavoring to rid its throat of an Ob
struction. It has an inveterate thirst.
In three days or a week, according to
its age and vitality, it yields the battle.
The postmortem decides definitely
whether the trouble is blackhead. In
an older victim, or one in which the
disease has most stubborn resistance,
the liver exhibits spots, white or gray
ish, autograph of this infection. Be
sides, the caecum, or blind pouch, is
enlarged to several times its diameter
and contains a core.. f-
If the turkey has drunk much water,
it will be collected in the pouch while
the remaining intestinal tract is empty.
This latter condition is always present
in cases of short length and in little
turkeys, though the liver spots may be
lacking. Occasionally in an acute at
tack the gizzard is discovered filled
with undigested food. This condition
seems to be responsible for the symp
tom of continuall yswallowing ob
served in some affected ones.
To be sure, the victim of blackhead
must . be dead, that there may be no
doubt as to the disease, for the un
scientific observer. Yet if an ailment
of this nature Invades a flock without
explanation and is resistant to all
treatment, the raiser may reasonably
suspect its Identity. If it is proved,
the first step is to take mea-sures to
prevent Ita spreading. This depends

upon the knowledge of the ailment's
origin.
Parasite la Persistent.
The cause is a minute parasite. En
tering Its host by way of the mouth,
it finally reaches the liver and intes
tines, where it establishes its little
laboratory for reproducing Itself and
disintegrating the tissues. Infection
of the older birds is not always fatal.
The mature turkey of rich vitality may
maintain an equal struggle for months,
meanwhile remaining a constant men
ace to its healthy fellows: a feathered
Typhoid Mary. Fattening such a tur
key, especially, on corn, often turns the
balance. It succumbs at last to the
enemy within.
For this reason turkeys In which
the infection is semi-latent may seem
to sicken unaccountably and die at fat
tening time. The germs of new in
dividuals cast off in the excrement of
infected fowls, remain dormant in the
ground from one season to another for
several years, ready to enter business
actively the moment they find a stand.
For this reason, established turkey
runs are taboo with the experienced
raiser. Other fowls are acceptable
hosts, but resist more sturdily.
' Blackhead. Trip 1. Mystery.
How this parasite nas finally jour
neyed from New England throughout
the states' may only be conjectured.
It is reasonable to believe that turkeys
shipped from one point to another have
oen responsible in part. Pigeons and
quail are susceptible to its infection
and rats and mice are carriers.
Perhaps among its other activities,
the sparrow has hastened the preva
lence of this pest. Certainly they may
bear germs from farm to farm in their
free-lance feeding. Sflme intelligent
people believe that certain farm seeds
and commercial fertilizers share the
responsibility for its .dissemination.
The parasite, once settled on new terri
tory, exercises the right of squatter
sovereignty. It is difficult to dislodge.
It is said that the soils of certain New
England states are so impregnated with
the parasite that even the "game birds
are being depleted.
Scientists declare there is no cure
for blackhead. Knowing these facts
concerning it, how can raisers protect
themselves? Prevention la the reply.
Since it attacks all poultry, turkeys
should be raised apart and never al
lowed to feed where fowls run. Fresh
turned ground, as far as possible, is
recommended for turkeys. Their h.abit
of ranging abroad may be encouraged."
New stock should always be subject
to the closest scrutiny. Mopy or light
weight turkeys or "finicky" feeders
are suspicious. If possible, one should
acquaint, one's self with the history
of the flocks from which one's breeders
are .selected.
At the first. sign of sickness, the ail
ing turkey should be isolated. Upon
the appearance of blackhead, .prudence
would dictate the removal of the
healthy turkeys' to a new range, such
as a wheat or hay field. " The sick tur
key may be put in a coop reserved for
hospital purposes and be dosed, if the
raiser Is experimentally inclined. Air
slacked lime Is a chlap, effectual dis
infectant to use around the coops and
feeding boards. For a few days afterJ
a suspicious case has been removed,
copperas sulphate of iron) or perman
ganate of potash may be used in the
flock's drinking water. This is not ab
solutely essential, since the parasite is
In the earth or In the excrement of
Infected birds. All dead turkeys should
be burned or buried deeply. A plenti
ful supply of charcoal In rations is a
wise precaution. '
Turpentine Often Effective.
The only treatment that I have found
helpful Is turpentine. I do not offer
it. as a cure, but I do know that it bas
been used again and again with grati
fying results to prevent general infec
tion of the flock. I speak particularly
of turkeys old enousrh to eat wheat.
On a farm where blackhead has claimed
victims at various times for some years,
the farmer, at first indication of its
activity, begins to use turpentine. For
20 birds of 10 weeks age. he mixes one
tablespoonful of. turpentine with one
quart of wheat ff breakfast. As they
grow accustomed to -the teste, he in
creases the dose to two tablespoonf uls.
After a week, he omits the turpentine
unless the. birds contimi to sicken,
which seldom happens. Those turkeys
Just infected often improve and appar
ently recover. After decided emacia
tion and loss of appetite appear, there
Is no hope. While an infected fowl re
mains in weight It has a chance. The
use of turpentine in early infection
seems to devitalise the germ. Ema
ciation bears testimony of the work of
the parasite in liver and intestines,
for these organs, are greatly impaired
by the infection. I
The Rhode Island station investi
gators are Inclined to believe that
b lark head and white diarrhea In young
chickens are correlative, or identical.
Outward signs as well as microscopic
examinations tend to confirm the
theory.
It cannot be denied that blackhead
is to be feared by turkey-raisers. Yet
its appearance on a farm need not en
tirely dishearten. Prompt measures to
isolate sick birds, burning of carcasses
and use of turpentine prevent Its
spreading. If the acreage permits It.
the healthy turks mav be removed to
another pasture, preferably a wheat
field, to which other poultry has no ac
cess. Tf the disease has obtained such
a foothold as to make heavy inroads
annually in the flock, as a last resort
It would pay to dispense with the In
dustry for a year or two. In this time
the parasites lose vitality If they do
not wholly disappear. With a new and
healthy flock and a rising tide of hope,
the turkey-raiser may start afresh.
Is poultry culture a safe venture?
Is It easy to make money with hens':
Thousands are Interested in the prob
lem, and it Is gaining greater promi
nence every year. In next week's ar
ticle, entitled "Keystones 'That Insure
Success In Poultry Culture," the writer
puts It squarely up to the reader what
may be expected, both from the poul
tryman and from his flock.
BE KINDER TO YOURSELF
Women Often Nerevons; They Don't
Know How to Itelai.
Mary Carolyn Davies In Mother's
Magazine.
One of the important tilings to know
In life, especially If you are a woman.
Is how to let yourself alone. The abil
ity to relax, the art of being Judiciously
lazy, the tact to-let herself alone has
saved many a woman from a nervous
breakdown. We all know the housewife
who nags herself Into such a state of
conscientiousness that she cannot rest.
If sne lies down she is continually wor
rying herself with thoughts of the work
that she )j neglecting.
Much of the blame for this state of
affairs lies at the doors of the mothers.
The mistake is In ther training of
their children, especially their -daughters.
They are taught from earliest in
fancy to be kind to others, to bear with
them, to forgive them, to help' them:
but from birth to death, no one ever
tells them to be kind, also, to them
selves. The woman who nags herself can
make herself rnnre miserable than any
one else possibly could. She can make
her life more of a nightmare than any
misfortune could possibly make it. If
such women could learn to be kinder
to. themselves thre Is no doubt that
their own lives would be lengthened:
and not only that, but the lives of those
with whom they come in close contact
would be made far more pleasant.
t SILVER-LACED
1 "1 ARLY In the history of fancy poul-
M . try In America an attempt was
made to produce a Cochin Bantam
with the beautiful lacings of the Sea
brlghts. A Seabright cock was crossed
with a Cochin hen. When the size of
the offspring proved too large to class
as a bantam, they were dubbed Sea
bright Cochins. Other crosses of. Sii
ver-Spangled Hamburgs and Cochins
were made and the blood of the two
crosses intermingled. The resulting
fowls were mated to a fowl known as
the Eureka, which was the result of a
cross of Silver-Spangled Hamburgs on
Dark Brahma females.
When these two strains were brought
together more uniform specimens were
produced. The fowls had rote-combs
and their plumage was much the same
as it is today. The females are beau
tifully laced black and white in all
sections and' the male laced in the
breast and body and striped In the neck

Reproduction from a photograph of one of the -oil paintings of the eminent American artist George Pe Forest
Brush. The picture now in the Chicago Art Museum was purchased by Phillip Armour and presented to that city
as a gift. The figures are members of the family of the artist, whose son Gerome (shown on the left) has been
invited to exhibit works of art consisting of paintings, drawings and sculpture at Portland Art Museum from
September 1 to 20.
IT liaH teen a subject interesting to
speculative writers how far hered
ity may account for genius, and
modern scientific research on the sub
ject still leaves the answer uncertain.
Gercme B.-us l. stHl In th20s, has
r.ttraoted net a little attention by Jia
recent exhibition .f oil painting at
KnneUlcr's in New York, and by a
beautiful bronze he:id shown at th
American Sculptors' exhibit at Gui
ham's in that city.
It will Interest Portland people to
learn that the "Portland Art Museum
has arranged for an exhibition of his
works beginning September 1. and It is
hoped" that he will visit Portland about
that time.
Gerome is the son of the eminent
American artist, George DeForest
Brush, and. In fact, was named after
the famous French painter, Gerome, in
whose studio in Paris the elder Brush
spent much of his student days. The
younger Brush grew up in an atmos
phere of art. so to speak, for much of
his life has been spent in- France and
in Italy, where his father has main
tained a studio at various times.
Association with artists, visiting the
famous art galleries, seing close at
hand the preparation of works of art.
no doubt have had a powerful influ
ence upon his final choice of a pro
fession. But until recently he did not
intend to follow In his father's foot
steps as a painter.
His education has been different
from that of- most young men of his
period, fcr he has not been aCschool.
Yet he is proficient In several lan
guages atd has. an education not less
practical and complete than that of a
college graduate. He married a lovely
young woman formerly Miss Seymour,
f New York, and she Is supposed to
have had much to do with his final
choice of profession.
The gradfather of Gerome was. dur
ing a number of years, a well-known
resident of Oregon. He was not an
artist by profession, although he al
ways took a keen Interest In work of
the fine arts. His daughter, Mrs.
Hugh. Hume, lived here for several
years prior to her death, and during
that period did much to stimulate a
love of the beautiful and an apprecia
tion of good craftsmanship by estab
lishing and carrying on in conjunction
with Mrs. C. A. Curry a "shop of arts
and industries" which Is still in suc
cessful operation.
But Portland's Interest In tb.e Brush
family may be said to have really be
gun with the Lewis and Clark Fair n
1905. Among the great American paint
ings exhibited at the art gallery were
several by George DeForest Brush.
These at once attracted the attention
of not only the critics but also the
general public. In early life this artist
had painted among the Indinns. and
had succeeded as no other artist had
done in painting good pictures and at
the same time popular pictures of In
dian life.
But the pictures displayed by him at
W YANDOTTES
paired with Its beauty as It has been
refined and is bred today, was suf
ficient to get the American breeders In
favor of the fowl. In addition to Its
attractive coloring, the new breed
proved to be heavy layers.
Such waa the origin of all Wyan
dotte fowls. All other varieties are de
scended from It In some way. The Sil-ver-Wyandotte
enjoyed immense . popu
lairty, rivaling the famous Barred
Rock, until the White Wyandottes ap
peared. The Sliver-Laced Wyandotte is hard
to breed true. It is doubtful If any
other variety of poultry is as difficult
to produce.. It is ideal (or the home
flock, however. The hens are heavy
layers of large eggs. They get broody
and-are good mothers. The chicks, like
those of the other American breeds, are
rugged and active and rapid growers.
When full grown this variety weights
74 ' to Vz pounds lor males and 5
to 6 Vi for females. They are docile
and easily confined, doing as well In
confinement as on free range.
i
the Fcir were principally wonderful
pictures of motherhood, and childhood.
The figures in these pictures were all
members of his own interesting family.
While he has not confined himself to
this class of pictures he has, since tho
Fair, painted a number of such pic
tures that have found place in the
principal public and rlvate collections
of the United States. One of these was
purchased by Mr. Armour and pre
sented to the Chicago Museum of Art.
Others hang in the Carnegie Institute
at Pittsburg,- the Metropolitan In New
York., and in the public galleries In
Boston. Philadelphia. Washington and
Buffalo.
Now Gerome starts with greater ad
vantages than did his fatlter. and yet
with less. For while he has the pres
tige of his father's name, any defi
ciency In quality ft execution would be
at once noted and perhaps not so easily
forgiven as In a young man from whom
less . is expected. So far. lie has met
the requirements and there can be no
doubt i at in time his pictures will be
considered as valuable as those of his
faher.

OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. July 22. When debate
was opened In the Senato on the naval
appropriation bill Senator Lane, of Ore
gon, was conspicuous by reason of his
absence, and his absence was the more
notable because of his frequent partic
ipation in all oeDates during the past
few weeks.
That the Ore son Senator should be
absent while the naval bill was before
the Senate was regarded as extraordi
nary, because he is the sponsor for the
Columbia River naval base bill, and
was supposed to be moving heaven and
earth to have his bill Incorporated In
the naval appropriation bill. More
over, his absence during the first day's
debate was particularly noted because
the bulk of the time was devoted to
discussing the needs of a Naval Acad
emy on the Pacific Coast, to supple
ment the Academy at Annapolis.
All day the debate ran. Senator Phe
lan, of California, leading the fight' for
the Pacific Coast academy, while East
ern Senators ridiculed and opposed the
Idea. Finally the Senate agreed to au
thorize a Naval Commission to make
an investigation to determine the ne
cessity for and probable cost of an
other Naval Academy, but the neces
sary votes being lacking, the Senate
did not require the investigation to be
made on the Pacific Coast. s
Senator Chamberlain was present,
but'did not take part in the discussion;
Senator Jones looked on; Senator Pot n
dexter was strong for the investiga.
tion, and wanted to go one better, and
also determine the need for a Joint
Army and Navy preparatory school on
the Pacific Coast. But no Senator
Lane. And when Senator Weeks forced
a rollcall on his motion to strike out
the investigation amendment Senator
Lane failed to respond. Senator Cham
berlain explained that his colleague
was "unavoidably detained."
Being a rugged, hearty man, who
has endured hardships all his life,
there was wonderments as to what had
happened to the Honorable Harry. No
body seemed to know. Finally the
Senator's office was called on the tel
ephone and this conversation took
place:

"He's laid up with a bum foot."

today."
"How did he hurt his foot?"
"He kicked a chair."
"Was he walking in his sleepT
"Ask the Senator."
"Did he think he was kicking Ilaf
ley?" "Ask the Senator."
But the Senator does not care to talk
about himself, and the mystery of the
"bum foot" promises to go unsolved.

of a maturity hardly to be expected of

yet with the exquisite skill and in

work of his father. It would be too
much to claim thnt he is his father's

he has painted a wonderful picture of

him a freshly caught fish. This picture

be safe to say that the war has in
creased the majority of women and

and the end is not yet. When the war
Is over there will be literally millions
more women than men.
The Germans are estimated as hav

ning of war and have 300.000 missing,
many of whom, no doubt, are dead. The
excess of feminine population probablv
has been doubled at least in the last IS

Germans on the list of wounded, many
of whom are crippled for life. It Is ap
