The Guinea Hen and Hawks.

1t is a superstition that a few gui'
nea hens in flock of fowls will keep
away hawks, and some farmers pur
chase the Guinea fowls for this pur.
pose. But it is doubtful If they have
any value at all TO- this purpose. A
poultryman that breeds them says
that it is a mistake, and that hawks
care nothing for them. This is prob.
ably the case. Thus another popular
belief is shattered. The Guinea hen
is also credited with being good
watchdog, setting up great clatter
on the approach of midnight maraud-
ers. The facts in the case seem to be
that the Guinea hen frequently takes
it into her head to set up clatter
whether there are marauders or not.
This is, however, nothing against Gui-
nea hens, as they are producers Of
very edible flesh and are very proflta-
BILE to raise. Doubtless they will re-
ceive more attention from breeders
in the future than they have received
in the past.
