POULTRY DEPARTMENT
LeghOrns, the Jersey of Chickens Best For City Use
By an FL PasOan for Ell Pasoans.

~ VERY true poultry fancier has his
- favorite breed and the writer has
IL his Leghorns, whether they be
brown. white, buff or black The CHIEF
business of hen Kept on city lot
is TO Law eggs, and If your hens are not
steadily at it 200 or more days each
year YOU had better sell them and sup
DIV their places with Leghorns-
Among pOultrymen we hear much OF
general purpose fowls corresponding 70
general purpose breeds In cattle cen
eraI purpose fowls are supposed TO ne
good layers as well as good producers
of flesh. just as u dual purpose COW IS
good milk producer as well as being OF
a fairly good beef strain, but you VIII
notice that the best dairy herds and the
best beef herds are never made up OF
general purpose breeds, but the dairy
herds are Jerseys or Guernseys and the
beef herds are HerefOrds or Polled An
gus. 1t is a noticeable fact. too, that
city folk who keep COW never have
one that viii give a fair quantity OF
milk and butter, and at the same time
lay on fat for the butcher later on, but
they usually have Jersey for milk
and butter. regardless Of the beef prop
osition.
LegbOrn the Chicken Jersey.
Now, the Leghorn in the poultry
kingdom compares to the Jersey COW in
the COW kingdom. She is the recog-
nized standard in persistent and heavy
egg production under all conditions
under which fowls are kept. She is Of
a nervous, active disposition. always on
the alert and for this reason does bet
ter in confinement than the larger and
lazier breeds which become too fat A
lazy or fat fowl never lays many
eggs, and as a city man wants hens
that viii lay eggs, preferably to those
that take on fat, he can make no bet
ter choice than LeghOrns. They are
practically non-setters and Keep stead
lily at the production of eggs winter
and summer. except during season of
mOult, and even then, if well cared for.
the flock viii furnish a few eggs ali
along and these egg machines are al
most as good as new for three or four
years.
The Feed BIN,
Another point in favor of a Leghorn
is the feed Dill. No one will argue that
a four pound Leghorn hen will con-
sumo as much feed as a nine pound
