GOOD MTNURCNS TN BIG UEWHN
BY G. c. BONNELL. Los Angeles. Cal

1 have been breeding S. c. Black
Minorcas for ten years, and l believe
that they are one of the most valuable
for the city fancier, as well as the
farmer. Their black, greenish sheen
pumage is not only beautiful to look
at, but it does not show the dirt and
CRIME of the city as my experience
shows the lighter shades of fowls do.
| find they are very gentle if properly
cared for, and bear confinement as
well as any other breed of fowls. They
are very stylish, and for beauty they
cannot be beaten. L have had a great
deal of experience with other breeds,
and l have come to the conclusion that
the Minorcas beat them all for egg
production and table fowl There is
nothing nicer to look at than a basket
full of large, white eggs, and l find
that their eggs hatch well, and the
chickens are easily raised. L find that
when a breeder raises good stock he
can find ready sale for them, and they
always bring fancy prices. Good Mi
nOrcas are in big demand.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-23

wanted a hen to dress four pounds or
better, and l had no trouble to get
Black Minorca to weigh that heavy;
second, l was dead in love with Black
Minorcas by this time, as it seemed to
me that there was no breed prettier
than a flock of Black Minorcas, with
that glossy, beetle green plumage
which shines at all times. Another rea-
son why l breed Black Minorcas is be-
cause the young are so blamed easy 10
raise. l keep a record of all chicks
that l take out of the brooder and put
into the growing houses. In 1907 l put
619 chicks in the brooder; 1879 were
Rose Comb Black Minorcas and the
balance Single Comb. From these l put
into the growing houses 604 chicks, of
which 1874 were Rose Comb, or, in 9TH
er words, l lost fifteen chicks out of
619 that were put into the broOder.
which shows that they are not so hard
to raise as some people seem to think.
Another reason why l breed Rose
Comb Black Minorcas is because of the
fact that the flesh of MinOrcas is equal
to any and better than that of most
fowls, being exceedingly tender and
fine favored with a good supply of
delicious white meat on the breast
the hens weighing from 5 to 61a pounds
and cocks from to pounds, varying
with different strains and the care
they receive while growing, and rarely
can you get a Minorca hen too fat to
lay.
There are many other good reasons
that make Rose Comb Black MinOrcas
Los Angeles herald., 1910-01-23
HINTS ON FEEDING

If fowls are on the range they will
find seed, green stuffs, bugs and
worms. If they are confined these
things must be supplied them. The crop
at night is a fairly good indication as
to wether the fowl is getting enough
or too much to eat. The crop should
not be too full, but not stuffed hard.
Have system of feeding; give va
riety and have food pure and clean.
Put food in litter at times, as the eXer-
else of scratching for the food is eXer-
else they need.
Do not overfeed. With hen, like
all other creatures, it is not what is
eaten but what is used by the system
that makes for good. Be sure the
fowls digest their food.
Undertaking is as bad as oVerfeed
ing. A hen must have enough not only
to keep her body but to furnish ma
terial for egg making.
Wheat, corn and barley are the prin-
cipal grains fed to chickens. No one
grain is good to feed alone as a steady
diet. Corn makes fat and keeps up the
heat of the body, but it must be mixed
with wheat or some other food that
does not contain these elements.
Grains alone do not make a proper
diet. There must be green stuff such
as grass, lettuce, cabbage, etc. Grain

fowl desires the green salads for a
change as much as persons do.
During moulting periods put linseed
oil or oil meal cake in the mash. 1t
helps keep the fowl in good condition,
being rich in albumen. Feed carefully,
