EFFECTS OF CROSSING.
where Poultry Raisers Practice Il
Largely, the Result Il Nearly Al
ways a Failure.

Crossing the breeds has never given
good results, although a great many
try it, and will continue to do so. In
nearly all cases when the attempt is
made to blend the best qualities of two
different breeds the offspring is not
equal to either parent, hence in the
course of few years there will be no
uniformity. and the stock reverts to
the scrub. Too much mixing is no bet
ter than keeping scrubs. 1t is right
and proper to grade up a common flock
with pure breeds, but to cross two pure
breeds is a mistake. Where crossing is
practiced largely, as with poultry, the
result is nearly always a failure. there
being no uniformity OF color, size or
laying qualities. Pure breeds are real
ly the results Of iudicious crossings
and selections. and cannot be improved
upon except after years of care and Sc
lection of the best individuals. The
best possible security. short of the
actual test, that any bird or animal
will produce its character eristics in its
offspring is that these characteristics
ire known to have belonged to a long
line of ancestors. Individual merit
md adaptation to our needs should he
The first and most important points of
selection. The character of the ances-
tors should be considered. 1t is not
necessary to endeavor to determine the
character Of any one of the ancestors
for when pure breeds are used one gets
1t once the results of selection for
years by those who worked in the past
jrossinr destroys the work that Others
lave done before.-Farm and Fireside

was the first to get tired of gazing and
it began to glide away. Just then the
hedgehog rushed for the viper's tail,
ana having nailed it fast with his teeth,
it rolled itself up. The hedgehog was
very careful, however, not to cut the
tail off. The viper curled back, and
delivered furious assaults on its ag-
gressor, wrestling and rolling with the
curled-up hedgehog all over the place.
At length the snake, wounded in hun
dred places, died.. The hedgehog be-
gan its repast on the tail Of its victim,
and was careful not to eat the head.

Crowding is bad in any stage of a
fowls existence. Perhaps it is worse
in .tr case of young chicks, whose
hold on life is very light at the
start. The brood that is watchcG
over by the old hen seldom is crowd
ed enough to be injured, Not So the
broodcr chicks. The amateur that
has few incubators is very likely
to try to save space in the broodcr
or rather, to make one bruodcr de-
the work of several. When too many
are brought together disease germs
have a good chance to multiply in the
rapidly accommodating filth. Bad air
also helps matters along.-Farmer.
