It is an excellent illustration Of the
grand carriage and beauty Of this
variety. Some writer's claim they,
are the original variety Of the Leghorn'
family, and others give that honor to
the Browns. But 1t matters little
about their history. It is sufficient that
we know they are the most popular Of
the Leghorn family. and that comes
from the fact that they are larger and
lay larger eggs than any Of their race.
They are very popular in the East on
large egg farms. If given a warm
house, with scratching shed combined,
they will prove to be good winter lay

point Of view the neighborhood Of
