Illustrated description of a 10- by 12-foot suburban Unit Poultry House with half inch mesh floor. Two hundred and fifty chicks were placed in the house and the cockerels removed at four weeks. The pullets were kept confined to the house until 10 weeks old. The mortality was 5 per cent during the period. The chicks grew normally and appeared in good health at all times. No green food was fed.

The Need of accepted scientific standards and rigid adherence to them in Pullorum Disease Control by L. F. Rettger, Agric. Exp. Station, Storrs. Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, March, 1929, p. 453.

Description of the PulIorum-Controlling system in Connecticut.

Eradication of pullorum disease from poultry flocks is a practical and feasible thing and the adoption sooner or later of a definite standardized and scientifically and reliably operated system of control based upon accepted tests will be found quite generally to be the real solution of the pullorum disease problem. Such a system should not be made compulsory, however, at least for some time to come.
