Poultry Points For Farmers.

For a general purpose fowl we be-
lieve the Plymouth Rock is unsur-
passed.
An intelligent study of the poultry
business, details in regard to- buildings,
care, feed, diseases, preparing for mar
ket and kindred subjects, such as may
be found in a progressive poultry jour
nal, is requisite to success.
1t is most profitable to sell to regu-
lar customers, gaining and holding
their confidence by quality and fresh
ness of poultry products and attract
iveness of packages delivered.
The best time to sell is in June or
July. Plymouth Rocks at 2 years of
age, good selling age, will often
weigh six, eight and even ten pounds,
and from select customers will bring
10 to IA cents per pound. Early chick
ems are harder to raise than late ones;
they are also more profitable.
We have realized greater profits
from the sale of eggs than from that
of chickens, but believe a combination
of the two is desirable
The exercise of intelligence, indus
try, common sense, patience, perse-
yerance and eternal vigilance will in
sure successful poultry raising on the
farm. Farm, Field and Preside.

THE TRUTH WANTED.
A Kick That Is Justified and sug-
gestion That Has Merit.


A correspondent. writing from Du-
buque, Ia, and signing H. A. j., writes
to Farm Poultry as follows: Farm Poul-
try, like other papers Of it's kind, has a
pretty large class Of readers who seem
to believe that whatever they see in its
columns, written with an appearance
of authority or assurance, must be the
true gospel of poultry keeping, and
they sometimes express impotence
with any one who doubts or asks for
the reasons for theories or beliefs. These
are the fellows who think it necessary
to give the editor taffy when they ask
a question or relate an experience, al
ways telling what II have learned from
your valuable journal" To such l
would say that | am not a kicker for
the mere fun of it, but there has been
SO much rubbish and rot written and
printed about poultry that it is time
to kick.
For the truth of this last statement,
Mr.. Editor, examine the columns of
any other paper than your own. wish
to get at the absolute truth in poultry
culture as far as possible not only for
my own benefit, but for the good credit
of the whole poultry fraternity. The
isolated experiments carried on by men
or women who imagine that because
they have seen a swallow it is summer
do not count for much, because the
same experiment seems to have different
results in different hands, perhaps be-
Of
and therefore leads to no valuable con-
clusion. Results are often ascribed to
causes which the man of experience
perceives can have but little effect in
the case.
The only way, as believe, to settle
the feeding as we'll as many other ques-
tions is to have an extended series of
experiments conducted by some scien-
tifcally educated man who is enthusi-
astically devoted to poultry (but with
out fads or hobbies), with sufficient
number of colonies to be able to expert
ment in many directions at once, and
by reversing conditions and treatment
in the several yards, get at the true
effects of food and management. To
inaugurate such a scheme, will gladly
be one of 500 Tor any necessary num-
berg of the readers of Farm Poultry to
raise sufficient sum for the purpose,
to pay in advance the sum of So each
yearly, for the period of three years, to
the editor or the proprietors of Farm
Poultry, to be given to DIR. Woods or
any other competent man selected by
the editor, as compensation for conduct
ing such experiments to conclusions
satisfactory to himself; the knowledge
SO gained to be made public through
the columns of Farm Poultry. Or 1
will go in any better plan to the same

from point of beak three-quarters to
III inches. AS specimens depart from
this proportion they become awkward
and valueless as exhibition stock and
often, also, as egg producers. In shape,
oblong, with full, broad and round
breast, carried well forward. The full
ness and oblong shape is typical Of the
Brahma and is characteristic of pro-
life birds. The curves of neck and
back are similar to those of the out
lines of an egg.
In plumage the male is pure white,
excepting hackle, tail and flights, which
are black and white striped with black.
Any other color but white and black is
against the standard bred bird. The
hackle is white, with black stripe ex-
tending down the center of each feath-
er and tapering to point near the ex-
tremity. The tail feathers are black,
and sickles are glossy greenish black.
The shanks are well feathered, with
the feathering extending down the mid
die toe. The toe feathering may be
white or white sprinkled with black,
pure white preferred A small pea
comb, broad crown, projects over the
eyes. Bright red face, wattles and ear
lobes are essential to good head. The
shanks and toes are bright yellow.
The Brahma female is much like the
male in head qualities, having broad
comb, projecting well over the eyes,
and small pea comb. The head of the
female should be masculine in appear
ance. The head is white: hackle, white
striped with black, as in male; cape,
white and black, but is completely COW
cred by hackle when the bird stands
erect; tail, black, excepting the two
highest main tail feathers, which may
be edged with white; tail coverts, one
or more rows, distinctly covering a
part of both sides of the main tail, two
rows being preferable, one black edged
with white.
The Light Brahmas are valuable
birds for the farm. They have always
been made to pay for their keep and
have seldom been set aside by any who
have bred them.-Farmers' Bulletin
No. 81.
