NATURAL SIZE.
DON'T Make the Mistake of Getting
Birds Too Big.

49, 49,
We were shown letter the other
day, says Farm Poultry, in which the
writer inquired about oockerels "that
give promise of making overweight
cocks. / must get the weight of my
birds up little, as the majority of buy
ers want heavy weights, and not long
ago we saw letter from a party who
wanted White Wyandotte cuckerel
that weighed 81 pounds, which is the
standard weight of White Wyandotte
cocks, and a full pound above the stand
ard weight for cockerels
We believe the desire for t'heavy
weights" Cor overweight birds) is an
error and should be discouraged. In
getting the overweight we get big,
coarse framed, rangy birds that are slow
maturing and make sluggish laying
birds and are poor property generally.
Take the first case as an example. The
writer of that letter has been breeding
for eggs for several years, and has built
up strain Of Barred Plymouth Rocks
that lay 1870 eggs apiece within year
| VI LO0CAlnS 1DS LII QOluk
that he finds that his birds have fallen
off fraction in size, which is perfectly
natural because it is the generally
'fine" type of bird, that is the great
/ layer. Will not he be better off if he
preserves the great laying characteris-
tics of his stock, even If they are off a
fraction in size than to breed back to-
ward the big, coarse, rangy type, and so
sacrifice the great laying qualities of his
stock? We believe SO.
The Barred Plymouth Rock fowl of
standard weight is little above the
popular market size. The standard
weight for the hens is ~ pounds,
and fowl that dresses to 81 pounds
sells quickest, the average buyer giving
the preference, other things being equal,
to birds that weigh 10 to II pounds to
the pair; hence Plymouth Rocks can be
off in size and be the better market bird.
If by being fraction off in size we get
the fine boned and fine bodied bird that
! is the great layer, there is very sub
stantial gain to her credit.
There is still another point to be con-
! sidered, and that is that the big, coarse
birds carry considerably greater pro-
portion of waste (bone frame) to meat,
and the shrewd buyer appreciates that
fact. We don { eat the bones of fowl.
It is the meat we buy them for and the
''fine" boned birds are worth more per
pound than the big boned, coarse"
birds because they carry more meat in
proportion to bone. This fact should be
better understood, and as the fine boned
type of bird is the better layer and bet
ter for market that is the type of bird
to breed.

wisdom In seIection.

What selection can do for a flock is
shown by the experience of Wyokoff of
New York state, who by selecting the
best layers among his flock of Leghorns
for several years got his whole flock of
600 up to an average of 1876 eggs per
hen year. This is an extremely high
average for so many hens on one farm.
It means better than an egg every other
day for every hen the year round. Not
only in spring and summer, but through
the melting season, through the dead
of winter and through the times which
hens naturally take for sitting or for
raising their brood, even for a small
flock, the record would be unusually
good. No amount of care with ordinary
fowls would make them do as we'll on
large scale. Here is an object lesson
which tends to show that breeding and
selection will yet do for hens what the
same agencies have done for other kinds

Care of Poultry.

The unsaDitary condition of the poul.
try house often allows serious diseases
to spread among the fowls, and for this
reason, if for no other, the buildings,
nests and yards should be kept as clean
as possible. The droppings should be
removed from the houses every day, and
to facilitate the work there should be
no unnecessary fixtures. The roosting
boards should be two feet from the floor
and placed go that they may be removed
easily. In my own poultry house / have
slots at either side, in which the ends
Of the roosting boards rest. One objec-
ton to this arrangement is that the
slots may harbor lice, but if kerosene
or lime is applied plentifully the lice
will cause no trouble. Each day, when
I have removed the droppings from the
houses, / scatter lime or ashes on the
floor, roosts, etc. The houses should
frequently be whitewashed inside and
outside. fresh straw placed in the nests,
and that which is removed burned or
placed on the manure heap. In winter
a shed of any desired size, under which
the fowls may be fed in stormy wealth
er, is a necessity. To obtain the best re-
suits in egg production some green food
must be provided Cabbage and beets
are inexpensive. and give good results.

Shades For Winter.

Colors for winter follow very closely
in the wake of those worn during the
summer. They will be extremely gay,
and the leading tones run to plum and
purple. Startling combinations of color
are seen on some of the new importa
tions, but somehow they do not make
faces at each other, as touch of white,
cream or black always introduced is as
peacemaker. In fact, to be quite in
the fashion it is imperative that every
gown has bit of black or cream,
whether it be in lace, silk, chiffon, en-
broidery or velvet. Some of the hand
some black and dark colored gowns
have white silk embroidered sprays and
set figures applied. Others are braided
in black, having just line of white
running through the design. - Woman s
