"Lady Show You" at $500 Is a Bargain
By 7. G. KEENAN,.

EEr ADV Show YOU" the white
rock hen which pulled off the
record breaking stunt for the
United States by laying Isl eggs in
one year in a public egg laying con-
test, has just been sold for $500 and
was cheap at the price. Were I to
appraise her sire I would place his
value ct an equal amount and am not
sure that a cock which can sire a
hen Of such qualities is worth moro
than that figure The papers do not
report it. but 1t is presumable that a
man with the business acumen to buy
such a hen at such a price would
know that her only proper mate would
be her own sire and it is to be hoped
that he has secured him and on the
two will found a strain Of high scoring
280 egg birds.
Lady Show You" is said to be
strictly an exhibition specimen Of the
white rock family and yet can show
you few things which no breeder
Tor utility purposes only has ever yet
equaled as far as public records show.
L do not know how the sire of this re-
markable hen ranked as d show bird
but it is safe TO say he would have
graced an exhibition coop in any show
room for his owner. Mr.. Bickerdite.
has no other kind in his breeding
hens. He very plainly breeds for
points of utility as well and seems to
have made a roaring success along
that line and yet when you compete
with him in the show room leading
breeders are proud when they make
him take second place.
It has Ions been held by breeders
of exhibition poultry that they get
better results along utility lines than
the man who breeds for utility only
and there is a reason for it Type and
vigor are already fixed qualities and
If they want them high producers of
eggs he has only to adhere to type
and markings and select the most pro-
life for breeders-which has been
done many years-and the trick is
turned.
On the other hand the man who ig-
nOres exhibition features and expects
to build a flock of layers seems to me
to be doomed to failure. He has his
eye on the one propOsitiOn-eg pro
duction-and if a hen produces the
eggs-be she broad breasted OF narrow
breasted, broad backed or narrow
backed, short build or long build-she
breeding pen. AS can be reasonably
expected her progeny come of many
types and unless the type is fixed the
quality Of egg production can never
become fixed to any transmittable de-
gree Breeders of milk cattle have
recognized this in the yield Of milk,
and for many generations of man have
had their fixed types for their favorite
breeders and within certain limits
have even bred them to color and the
largest producers of milk are as 4
rule, the highest scorers in a show
pen. Freaks Of nature are sometimes
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1912-12-21

found where an animal varying from
the type fixed for her breed is a high
producer, but such is not the rule and
she is never regarded as a desirable
breeder even for the utility feature of
milk production. Such animals have
been found less likely to transmit
their quality Of prOductiveness to their
from the true and fixed exhibition
type.
Have n Fixed Type.
Just so it is with poultry. Have q
fixed exhibition type and when you
find producers of that type the quail
ity is very much more apt to be trans
mitted than when exhibition features,
so to speak, are ignored.
But I have distressed from Lady
Show You"
Poultry breeders understand that
the sire of a productive hen or even
her full brothers. not varying from
type of the breed transmit in a
more pronounced measure the prOduc-
tive trait of the family to a greater
degree than the hens themselves make
the records. Hence TO firmly es
tablish prOductiveness in a strain it
is important that record be kept Of
the males and only such be used as
breeders as are closely related to the
producing females.
Truly the male is more than half
the flock and to attain results worth
the while producing females must be
mated TO males of producing families
and no tranSmissibnity should ever be
expected from q bird male or fc-
sale, varying materially either in
form. feature or feather from the fixed
exhibition type of the particular breed.
