Type and Carriage.
| am, however, decidedly i'm favor

original idea of the breed. Avoid the
large bodies and bull necSs we so often
see in the classes. 1t is not a great
meat breed; that is not the idea. 1t

what the Leghorns or laying breeds 60

be rather slim, carried erect or nearly
so, with a slim, racy neck a the head.
