The revelations Of the spectroscope,

double stars that cannot be separately
seen, either because of their extreme
closeness or because only one of them
is a shining body. tt is the erratic mo-

TAKE NO SUBSTITUTE.

Golden and Silvers, the pure
Bats with the white crest; and
the black crested white, if they
ever existed, are not bred these
modern times. All are duplicate
in type or shape, and having
such mammoth crests and a
symmetry or carriage that sur
passes any known class of fancy
poultry. Imagine you see them
running here and there in the
yard. See the cock bird has
found a morsel. He signals to
the hens; there is a rush, then a
bobbiug mass of snow white
balls, or silver laced, golden
laced or buff come in a bunch,
apparently tumbling about as
bad as the players in a foot ball
game, in the midst Of which
stands the proud cock bird, like
an umpire, with his beautiful
capped head arched above the
crowd Of his scarcely
less handsome concubines.
The pheasant in its gorgeous
colors is a handsome bird, but a
flock of Polish of any variety is
perhaps one of the most pleasing
sights to the true lover of nature
to be found among any of the
many "two legged" hobbies the
fancier may search for. After
you have followed their antics
on 1.-THE green lawn" go with me
into the roost at night fall and
see the long rows of white balls
(crests), or silver or golden ones
tinted with black, or the golden
buff ones all mirrored on a back
of black or buff or silver
or gold, and you will acknow-
ledge that truly it is pleasing
sight.
l have no Polish to sell, but
hope there will be some interest
taken in behalf of these hand
some chickens, that I as well as
other Of my fellow poultry |
Judges may soon find better
quality in the Polish alleys" Of

produced nothing stranger than
her breed of long-tailed fowls, q
specimen ofiwhich has just ar
rived at The Museum Of Natural
History in New York. The tail
feathers Of this bird measure
no less than twelve feet. We
quote the following paragraphs
about this curious breed of fowls
from an article contributed TO
the Scientific American by Wa
ter L. Beasley, says the Louis
Vile, (Ky.) Times. Says Mr..
Beasley:
The introduction of the breed
is said to have been brought
about by a Prince of Japan,
whose imperial crest was
feather. Yearly he offered
prize to the subject who would
bring to him the longest feather.
The greatest effort and skill
were therefore employed by the
breeders to product the greatest
length of tail feathers possible.
AT present only a few old fam
ciers know the secret process of |
successfully breeding these
fowls. A few authentic details
have, however, been obtained in
regard to the methad of their
breeding. The particular breed |
is confined to the region in and |
around KOCH, the capital of a
province of Tasso, The breed |
is about hundred years old and |
is fast dying out. There is said
to be no artificial method of max
ing the feathers grow. All is
done by selection. Moreover,
one must know how to treat the
birds during the various stages
of tail growth. The body feath-
.ers springing from the shoulders
attain length Of four feet. Two
years is the time necessary to
produce a full growth of tail.
The tail feathers grow from four
to seven inches a month and con-
tinue to increase as long as the
bird lives, which is usually from
eight to ten years. The hens
lay about thirty eggs in the
spring and autumn, which are
Matched by other fowls. The
hens are kept housed up and sit
all day on a hatperch, and are
taken out only once in two days
and allowed 10 walk half an hour
or so, man holding up the tail to
prevent them from being torn or
S billed. The birds are fed on an
hulled rice and greens, and Sc
cret food known and prepared
by the old fanciers themselves.
They demand plenty of water
and are wonderfully tame. The
number of long tail
feathers possessed by each bird |
is fifteen or sixteen. About |
twice a month they are carefully |
in warm water, and af-
terward dried on some high |
place, usually roof. The |
present price is $50 for a bird |
having a tail over ten feet long. |
There are four varieties of the |
breed: White head and body |
feathers and tail black; second, |
white all over with yellow legs; |
third, red neck and body feath-
ers; fourth. reddish color mixed |
with white on body. All these,
with the exception of the second
variety, have black tail feath-
ers."

POLISH FOWLS.
The Most Beautiful Of all Domestic
Fowls.

The ornamental Polands are
beautiful acquisition 10 our do

plain, I viii call it domestic
chickens, because "there are
others, as with the water fowl,
there are others merchandising

led varieties of ducks and geese
Likewise there are many va
rieties Of fowls of the air, among
which are different species hav.
ing gorgeous plumage, almost
Beyond description. Upon quail
ity. however, and it's use, the
value of most everything is de-
termined, and particularly is
this so with fine bred poultry
the polish especially.
There are hundreds, yes
thousands, of poor, inferior Pc
lish being,bred and put on the
market every''year, because, in
most cases, the breeders do not
honestly realize what really first
class specimens of the Polish
are. There are, however a few
breeders, few indeed, who have
np-to-date modern, crested Pc
Esh.
The size and shape of the crest
and beard are the principal
points of excellence in fine Po-
lish, which are the attractive
features of all varieties of this
class, whether of the solid or
parti-colored varieties. With
solid or self-coloy there is not so
much trouble to breed them
true. If successful with this
section one certainly has a cinch
on quality. With the parti-col-
ored Polauds for the fancy,
large, good shaped crest and
beard, with clean, we'll defined
lacings, are valued beyond size
or utility. Most all Polish have
the last named Observation-Disclosures
from a commercial standpoint,
as Polish are a non-setting breed
and very good layers, but we
cannot reasonably expect two
extremes in a single specimen,
yet occasionally we do have them
assl have owned immensely
crested specimens that were reg
ular egg machines.
Although Polish with small
arrests, of good shape, may score
way up" they are not strictly
of fancy quality, and would not
be tolerated by me for a minute
for breeding purposes, as with
me small crests are not much
better than none, and spoils all;
really it's mo crest nc Polish"
with me.
The kind Of crest development
that should be encouraged and
approved by our Judges, is those
male specimens having crests
not less than three inches to one
foot or over in diameter, and fe-
males with crests to match, then
the breeding of Polish will be
worth while.
The White Crested Black Pc
ljsh are the most popular of the
dozen or more varieties which
are bred, both plain and bearded,
but here I am to the point where

book, and I am thinking how to
begin and how to end Yes, l
could give an accurate standard

class Of fowls, but such cold,
lifeless narrative it would be by
itself, lacking the very essence
OF the description, as I see it,
and would wish to present you,
hence l bring to my relief a
couple of illustrations in black
and white, which will convey

be brought up to, though / hope

on hand or can procure. Th
{ question that at once arises is
which is the best?
we have, perhaps, half a dozel
males to select from, varying il
color from lemon buff to CHINA
mon red. On looking over oul
females we find much more
uniform lot at first sight, but OF
closer inspection we find much
the same variations N a modified
degrees
Our first step is the selection
of our male birds. Were we to
mate up two pens we would Sc
lect as strong colored birds as
possible to head these pens.
do not mean by this red or Gin
namon, but of as uniform shade
throughout as possible.
For convenience we will desig-
nate these pens as No. l and No.
?.
For No. we would select a
male as near as might be to the
standard description, viz, golden
buff throughout. He must be
vigorous, of good Leghorn type,
strong in undercolor, good in
conf and lobes. Should a little
foreign color appear in wings or
tail do not discard the bird. We
have seen many prize winners
bred from males with a little
white, black or gray in wings or
tail. However, this should be
avoided if possible. With such
a bird l would put females of a
deeper shade of buff than is
known as exhibition color.
Should the male be weak in any
section see that the females are
extra strong in that section,
(this applies to shape as we'll as
color.)
From this mating we should
expect an especially fine lot Of
females with a fine percentage OF
good males.
For No. ? pen we should Sc.
lect a male of a darker shade
than the first, as free from red
as possible, but of deep rich
buff, both surface and undercol
or, with little chestnut or black
in tail, and a clear, strong wing.
See that the quilts as we'll as web
of feathers are buff, He should
be large, of good carriage, with
a moderately low tail. Com b
should be rather small, of a fine
texture, and perfectly upright,
free from twists and thum b
We would mate with him fe-
males of exhibition buff shade
throughout, clear in wing and
tail, and of as good undercolor as
possible. For this pen we would
select females with as upright
comb as could be found, From
such a mating we should expect
some grand male birds, fit to
show in any company. We would
also look for good females, espec-
tally good breeders.
One thing however, must be
remembered before you can
nope 10 gain any great success.
You must establish your own
line of breeding. This may
require several years, especially
if your present stock is from the
yards of several different breed
ers. The best way is to select
some good breeder who has a
well established strain and Sc
cure your new blood from him.
Be thorough and earnest, de-
termined that each succeeding
year shall show marked i'm
provement in your flock, and
success will surely crown your
efforts.
Brother fancier, you who
would win for yourselves a place
in the front ranks of your fellow
breeders, let me urge you to join
