THE GENERAL-PURPOSE FOWL,
BY o. Err.

The American breeds Of poultry
have been made by the mixing of Ash
attic and Mediterranean. or non-set-
ting breeds of fowls. They have been
formed to meet the demand for a
general-purpOSe chicken and they fuI-
fill this demand better than any breed
thus far considered. These breeds are
more variable in traits than breeds
with more years Of uniform ancestry
to their credit. If strict selection is
not maintained the American varieties
are inclined to vary and revert to an
ceStral types. This would at first seem
a disadvantage, but in the hands Of
a careful breeder this tendency to vary
may be turned into good count in
improving h breed.
The Plymouth Eocks.-The Barred
variety Of the Plymouth Rocks IL the
original Plymouth Rock, and is, per-
haps, all things considered, the most
popular breed in this country at the
present time. It's origin is commonly
given as a cross between the Black
Java and the American Dominique.
Besides the la other Asiatic blood
has probably been used in making the
breed The Plymouth Rock is more
like the Asiatic than like the Euro
pean chicken. 1t approaches in size
and fattening qualities the Cochin or
Brahma, but has lost the excessive
feathering, slowness of growth. and
| general cIumsiness Of those breeds
The greatest recommendation for the
Plymouth Rock on the farm is The ex-
cellent growth made by the young
chickens In this quality they have
no superior, The Plymouth Rock
pullets are good layers, but as yearl-
ing hens are prone to turn the feed
into fat rather than eggs. Another
objection to the Barred variety is the
difficulty in keeping the breed true
to the standard trype. The pure-bred
birds are required to have even and
distinct bars Of the same shade in
male and female. These are difficult
points to maintain, and resort is often
made to double mating or the keep

dairving this is we'll understood, but
in other places is virtually unknown
and a. strong prejudice exists against
feeding skim-milka on account of the
unhealthy and understood calves that
have been raised in this way. Such
