There are two ways in which the states

by the biological survey that any state

Most of the states have game pre-

chance to increase. Most of these pre-
serves offer favorable conditions for the
development of larger animals and 1t IS
into these that the elk from Wyoming
are being introduced.
Moreover the federal government is it

A HARDY VARIETY OF LEGHORNS

Copyrighted. 1914 by George r. McDevitt
Co.
There is considerable doubt as to the
exact date of the first Importation of
Brown Leghorns into this country, and
much controversy as to whether these
original fowls had red or white earlobes
and rose or single combs. Without en-
terng into the merits of the discussion,
it is sufficient to say that the first i'm
portation was made between 1885 ard
1855, that the first birds were of inferior
quality and they later were crossed with
Black-Red Games to improve the color,
also with Minorcas to whiten the ear
lobes and to strengthen the color of the
male.
While these crosses were of undeniable
benefit, so far as color Improvement was
concerned. they nevertheless gave the
Brown Leghorn a blockiness of type and
a general heaviness of appearance that
is most undesirable in Leghorn. These
defects are sometimes noticeable in cer-

when egg quotations are low, many eggs
for Matching are sold, and these bring up
the average. After the chicks for the
farm are Matched, the incubators are kept
busy for time turning out baby chicks

matches are turned off as broilers as rap

swelling the summer income. In early fall
