The Hoe and the Dough

The man with the hoe has been rec
ognized by every age and nation as
fundamental source of prosperity
and while our literature abounds
with encomiums IN his behalf, the
half has never been told. But the
man with the dough is equally as
important at this period of our
growth and development as the man
with the hoe. Attempts have been
made to discredit him, but when it
comes to building factories and rail
roads and large industrial enterprises
which are necessary to our prosper
ity, we must face the man with money
and our destinies as a nation of in
fluence and power are largely in his
hands.
1t takes the man with the hoe and
the man with the dough combined to
make civilization, and one is inter
upon the other.

Leghorn has set the standard for
popular proft-producing laSing hens.
She is also noted for her adaptability
to climate. Her ancestors are sup
posed to have existed in a seniwild
state in Italy. lived on seeds, bugs,
and green's, stole their nests and were
as wild as our present day partridges.
The hardness of Lady Leghom and her
abihty to adapt herself to the change
able climate and various attitudes OF
Tennessee is due to the fact that the
temperature of the home of her wild
forebears ranged from below zero in
the mountainous regions, to l09 de-
grees above zero during the hot sum
mer.
A glance at her viii show that she
is built for laying eggs. She differs
in many details from the meat pro-
Queer. Her body is longer and is
nicely placed on longer. trimmer legs.
Leghorns produce only white-shelled
eggs. which look and sell better than
any other kind. White-shelled eggs are
preferred in almost every market in
this country with the exception of
Boston. Even there the preference
for brown eggs is diminishing.
One reason for Lady Leghorns re-
markable laying capacity lies in her
unusual activity. When allowed free
range, she forages for a great part of
her food. She is not usually inclined
to broodiness, and instead of going
through long and melancholy periods
of moulting she usually requires only
ninety days to don her new robe.
Altogether, Lady Leghorn seems to
have many virtues and few faults. In
addition to all her practical values,
she is good locker" and graceful. I
She has a coat that is white as snow;
conspicuous ruby-red jewel-like eyes;
a golden yellow beak, nicely curved,
and comp worn TO one side, as chic
as a new spring bonnet. Her move
ments are alert ami buoyant. Her con-
sort, Mr.. Leghorn, is the very essence
of vigor, sturdiness, and lustiness. In
short, the Leghorn is a comedy crea-
ture-a delight to the eyes.

THE WHITE LEGHoRNS
Represent the Highest Type Of Egg
Producing Fowl Admittedly
UnexcelIsd as Layers.

By Leo. ]. Brocsemer, Bureau OF AMI
nal Industry. Z. 5. Department OF
Agricultural
Every beginner thinks the hen prob
lem is a simple one. All of us thought
so, when we first contracted the
chicken fever, and fell a prey TO en-
ticing statements in "get-rich-Quick'
pamphlets. We built lighthouses after
our own design, purchased ten hens
and a supply of food and started in
to flood the local egg market To make
a short tale shorter, we failed. Why?
We had the right idea, but the wrong
hens.
To those who are thinking of keep
ing a few hens" or to those who in
tend to build up a mCney-making egg
business, a few facts about a breed
universally labeled "egg-machines, &"
will not so amiss. The egg business
may rightly be termed a manufactur-
ing business. Hens are the machines.
Eggs are the products. The best ma
chimes are those which require the
least investment. are kept up at the
least cost, and turn out the most sat
isfactory products. The Leghorn hen
seems to fill the bill.
Ninety per cent of the big egg farms
in this country are stocked with sim
gle-comb white LeghUrns. This is the
most powerful argument that can be
used in favor of this breed for these
farms are operated by business men
who are looking for the greatest re-
turns possible. Hence, they raise
white Leghorns, which hatch more
easily than other breeds, begin to lay
earlier, and are non-sitters The very
fact that Leghorns do mature more
quickly than other breeds means less
food, less cost in building the machine
and getting ready for business Lady
