  Resistivity and thermoelectric power (TEP) measurements on CeFe$_2$ and two
of its pseudo-binaries Ce(Fe, 5% Ir)$_2$ and Ce(Fe, 7% Ru)$_2$ between 78K and
275K are reported. The resistivity data are analysed in terms of contributions
from scattering due to phonon, magnon, spin fluctuation and lattice defects,
and also from interband scattering. Attempts are made to analyze the TEP data
in terms of these resistivity components. Thermal hysteresis is observed in the
temperature dependence of TEP in the Ir and Ru doped CeFe$_2$ samples around
the ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition, indicating the first order
nature of this transition.
