"Goals for 1923: Improve housing, feeding, and parasite and disease control with county poultry flocks. We built three UC designed hen houses in Marin this year." M.B. Boissevain "Local poultrymen and women lose thoudands of birds each year through bad management and disease. Many of these difficulties can be overcome if Mr.Newlon's suggestions are followed. He is an entertaining speaker and knows his stuff. See the farm advisor for information about how to handle Coccidiosis, a disease attacking young chickens." M.B. Boissevain
