\ local poultry fancier who follows
the printing trade as a sort of diver
sion is of the opinion that some of the
pet theories of the poultry business
are subject to revision. He recently
removed from his main flock few of
the choicest birds to make up a breed
ing pen. Since their removal to new
and strange quarters they have kept
up an average of 80 per cent. in lay
ing. a remarkable showing, as it is
claimed that this procedure has the
immediate effect of stopping them
from laying. This fancier's favorite
breed is Buff Orpingtons, from one of
the finest strains in the country. In
anticipation of next falls shows he is
renewing the blood in his flock from
a well-known breeder at cost of 81
