The poultry industry Of Missouri,

sold for poultry at that stage with
the same profit as cockerels from larg
er stock
Standard leahorns Better for Poultry
The standard weights for mature
Leghorns are: Males 51s pounds, fe'
males pounds. By making these the
minimum weights for birds used in
breeding, and by giving the preference
TO the largest specimens that show
Leghorn type without coarseness,
strains of Leghorns may be developed
that with no loss of laying capacity
have considerable merit as table fowls
in limited range of uses.
Leghorn hens which alive weigh 4
pounds or more are heavy enough to
meet the demand for dressed fowls a
little under the weights generally pre-
ferred, and there is enough demand
for fowls at this weight to take all the
supply.
The cockerels bred from hens Of 4
pounds weight and over, If properly
grown, win make broiler size as quickly
us the chicks of most of the larger
breeds. They win also be soft.meated
up 10 about 2 to 2is pounds weight.
After that they are apt TO harden
quickly and their flesh is not SO ten
der. Leghorn cockerels produced from
very large males and females-that Is.
from males that weigh upward Of 81
pounds and females upward OF 81
pounds-frequently keep quite soft
meated until they reach 4 to pounds
weight. Such birds make very salts
factory small roasters for home nse,
though they win not sell as well on the
market as birds Of the same weight
Of a slower growing breed.
Growing Lechorns for Mest.
Even when good-sized Leghorns are
used for breeding, the chickens win not
make good poultry unless they are
wen grown. In a measure this Is true
Of any chickens; those that are poorly
grown never make the development
or have the table quality Of those that
are wen grown.
To secure good growth, Leghom
chicks must net be overcrowded In
brooders or coops, and as soon as they
are large enough to range over an ex-
tended piece Of ground should be given
as wide range as possible and at the
same time fed literally. Chicks 50
treated WI grow twice as fast as
those that are reared under the inten-
sive conditions to which the greater
number Of Leghorn chicks are sub
,seted
