DARK CORNISH

The Dark Cornish, formerly called
the Cornish Indian Game, originated
in the county of Cornwall, Wales,
where it is largely bred. From there
il spread over the British Empire, and
later to the United States.
Statements regarding the origin of
this fowl are very conflicting. At one
time It was maintained that the breed
was a direct importation from the
East Indies. This probably was due
to its resemblance to one of its pro-
genitors, the Aseel Game. which is
of Asiatic origin. However, the con-
sensus of opinion leans toward a cross
of the Aseel on old English Game. II
mas been used extensively for cross
ing with other varieties to obtain fine
grained. heavy table poultry,
and is itself included in the ancestry
OF some of our popular American
breeds.
The Dark Cornish was extremely
popular I'm America about 20 years
ago; its plump breast and rich yell
low skin making 1t desirable and at
tractive addition to our table fowls.

CHAPTER XXXV


Copyright, 1916, by Star Company.
To the casual observer 1t would have
seemed that the webbs fortunes were
improved by leaps and bounds, So
little did Myra Webb speak of her part
in the increase of the family income
that her friends took it for granted
that she was writing for pleasure.
They remarked that it was pleasant
for a woman to be able TO earn pin
money for herself They also COM
mended Grace for continuing to teach
and thus make herself Independent.
Miss Letson had raised her salary with
the beginning of the midyear term,
and, as Myra would not allow her to
pay any board, most of GraCe's money
went toward clothing and amusements.
The winter passed rapidly and once
more Spring came. But with the first
warm weather of early April Grace
Webb began TO droop. Her mother
noticed her pallor and urged her to
rest during the Easter vacation.
Early in May, on returning one
afternoon from school. she tainted.
She was obliged TO resign her position
in school, and even when she was up
and about her room it was deemed
best to keep trained nurse in attend
ance upon her for several weeks. The
girls strength returned very slowly
\ Costly Suggestion
IF you can arrange it," the doctor
said to Myre, you must take her away
for while. Let her remain here at
home until she has regained enough
strength to make the trip to the noun
tains a pleasure, not a tax, to her-and
then go with her somewhere up into
Sullivan county for at least a month
How easy it was to give such orders,
Myra reflected when he had gone
away. Did physicians never realize
how much illness cost their patients?
Horace had handed his wife the
money for the trained nurse a Few
DAYS ago when this attendant took her
departure. Myra had thanked her
husband as meekly as if it had not
been the nurse of his own child whom
he was paying. He had accepted her
acknowledgements with a half-smile-
as If they were his due.
"Oh, that's all right he had said
easily. Il am glad to be able to nelp
you out to this eXtent-for l know
your expenses have been heavy during
Grace's illness. l am afraid. however,
my dear that the doctors bill will have
TO wait for a good while-unless'-
with a moments hesitation-''you can
arrange to meet it-or part of it,
That DR.. Horton did realize what a
strain on the finances a serious illness

consisting of equal parts of corn,
wheat and oats.
The value of this method of care
and management of cockerels is best
Judged by results. These may be
considered as to the health of the
cockerels and the profits secured. OF
81 birds handled in this manner in
1914, and 54 last season, not one
showed any signs of sickness or dis
ease after they had reached the age
of three months and, of course, there
was not the loss of q single cockerel.
On account of the more rapid
growth of cockerels after they reach
the age of 2 Y or months, it is bet
ter to hold them until they attain a
weight of at least 3 II or pounds.
Under the system of feeding outlined
above, my cockerels weigh about 4
pounds when about Az or months
old. From this time up to six months,
they gain about a pound in 80 days.
They vary in weight from s to s
pounds when six or seven months old.
Their gains in weight after this time
are not so rapid. To make the most
profits from cockerels, therefore, they
should be sold for table use when be-
tween four and seven months old.
From records covering several
years the cost of feeding cockerels
varies from 10 to 12 cents per bird
a month. Assuming an average age
of five months before the cockerels
are sold, the cost or feeding ranges
between so and so cents. For young
cockerels we'll fed, the price in the
best markets is about 20 cents pound
live weight and 2g cents dressed. The
net profit above cost of feed derived
from the sale of the 81 cockerels was
1920, and from the 81 cockerels,
$31.S2, or an average profit of SO cents
bird. This is worth while from
source of generally regarded by poul-
try keepers as more or less of a nui-
sance. Certainly cockerels can be
made to paw
