PURE BRED POULTRY.

Pure bred or standard bred poultry
possesses many advantages over mon
grel or scrub stock. Experience has
proved that pure bred stock, bred for
egg production will lay larger mum
Der of eggs than common mongrel stock
Of a mixed breeding.
Pure bred stock Is bred for pur-
pose; mongrel stock Is not. There are
breeds for show, for egg production,
meat production and "A combination Of
the latter two purposes.
Pure bred stock produces an improv-
ed quality of meat. The eggs are more
uniform In size, shape and color and al
ways bring premium over mixed eggs
IN the market.
A flock Of pure bred poultry makes
a very pleasing appearance. The own
err takes pride In them and hence gives
them better care and feeding
Pure bred stock will find quicker
market and always has greater sell
ing value
The initial cost OF starting with pure
bred birds Is small; the advantages are

ger Of heating or molding. The fodder
should not be wet when shredded and
stored, but damp days are preferable
for doing the hauling and shredding
because the blades are more pliahle,
and the fodder is therefore handled
with less waste. But In some sections,
especially in northern states, where the
corn Is full Of sap when cut and where
damp fall weather prevails, much care
Is necessary in storing corn fodder or
stover TO prevent heating and molding
