Don't Mix the Breeds.

II there Is one mistake more likely
to be made than another by the novice
in poultry raising it is the tendency to
keep several breeds. The expert can
do this with more or less profit because
he understands how TO keep them sep
arated or, II he wishes to cross them,
understands this as we'll. The novice,
on the other hand. is too often inclined
TO experiment. He thinks the crossing
of two certain breeds ought to give him
the finest fowl on earth and keeps at It
until the blood Is pretty well mixed.
and finds, to his dismay. that the cross
is not so good as the poorest of the
clean breeds. Again he tries Rocks one
year and then becomes enamored of the
wyandottes and gets few; the next
year the Leghorn appeals TO him and
so on until he has the time of his life
keeping them separated or, as in the
first case, becomes involved in hope
less mixture. Look we'll into the sub
jeet and ascertain as nearly as possible
which breed meets the requirements,
then get that breed and stick to II
through thick and thin until you prove
il valuable or worthless.
