production of meat. Only such. uni
formity of color and minor points are
demanded as will serve to distinguish
the breed and give uniformity OF ap-
pearance. The standards adopted by
breeders Of this class of animals give
relatively small consideration to fancy
points, whereas poultry breeders con-
slider about one-half Of the value OF
their birds to depend on color OF
feathers alone, while the judgment
OF shape is based upon the outline
produced by the feathers and not on
the true body shape. The standard
bred poultry fanciers have not been
mainly concerned in producing breeds
OF chickens for the use of the farmer
or practical grower, as have been the
breeders of cattle and swine. Men
who pursue animal breeding for pleas
ure alone do not choose large, Slow
breeding animals, such as cattle;
neither do animals wholly worthless
from other standpoints receive much
attention from breeders. But the hen,
variable in form and color, inexpen-
sive to secure, readily reared and
capable of producing in brief time
large numbers of offspring, and yet
withal capable Of paying her way in
food products, has rendered possible
the development of the fancy or stan.
dard-bred chicken business into the
most universal and important fancy or
artistic-breeding business in the world.
From the attention that has been
given to the breeding of poultry for
the show room, many people wrongly
infer that standardized poultry is no
better than mongrel stock for COM
mercial purposes.
The mongrel chicken is a production
of chance. Iss ancestry represents
everything available in the barnyards
of the neighborhood, and its offspring
will be equally varied. In the pure
breeds there has been rigid selection
practiced that gives uniform appear
ance. -
The size and shape requirements OF
the standard, although not based on
the market demands, comes much
nearer producing an ideal carcass than
does chance breeding. Ability to ma
ture for the fall and winter shows is a
decidedly practical quality that the
fancier breeds into his chickens.
Moreover, poultry breeders, while still
keeping standard points In mind, have
also made improvements in the laying
and meat-producing qualities OF their
chickens. Considering these facts, 1t
is an enormous idea to think that
mongrel chickens offer any advantage
over pure-bred stock for meat or for
eggs.

How often have you thought about

(By OSCAR ERR,

(By OSCAR ERF.)
Pure-bred animals are those that
produce their form, habits or other
distinctive qualities with uniformity.
In order that we may get offsprings
like the parent and like each other we
must have animals whose ancestors
for many generations back have been
OF ono type. The more generations OF
such uniformity. the more certain it
will be that the young will possess
similar quality.
The wild animals of any one kind
or species in one locality have been
OF similar type for many generations
and may be considered as pure-bred.
BY the law of natural selection, indl-
viduals not suited to live in that par
ticular locality have been weeded out.
When animals are domesticated,
and moved to other climates, and are
fed different foods, only such indi-
viduals will live and produce young
as are suited to the new conditions.
But another factor changes domestic
animals more rapidly. Men breed only
such specimens as please their fancy;
and this artificial selection replaces
natural selection. During the many
centuries OF demonstration the chick
ems of different parts of the world
have developed into different types.
When these radically different types
are brought together and crossed we
have produced young that are very
different from the parents and from
each other. Nor can these young be
depended upon to reproduce offspring
like themselves. They are said to be
cross-bred, or, if the mixing be for
several generations, they are known
as mongrels. By selecting from cross
bred or mongrel stock such chickens
as are desired, and breeding these to-
gether for many generations new
breeds may be established.
One strain of chickens may be Sc
lected for uniform color of feathers,
another for a certain size and shape,
another for laying large eggs OF GER
tain color, and yet another strain for
being producers of many eggs. Each
of these strains might be wellbred in
these peculiar traits, but would be
mongrels when the other considera-
lions were taken into account. Breed
ers of pure-bred stock, In making
their selection of breeding animals,
try to consider the desirable qualities
in due order of their relative I'M
portance. Thus, with trotting horses
speed is given prominence above
everything else, while in the case OF
swine or beef cattle attention has been
given to the qualities OF growth ana
fattening that make for the profitable
