USE STANDARD.
TO IMPROVE QUALITY
Poultry Specialists Urge Replace
ment Of MongreI Stock.
Interest In Improved Stock Shown by
Number Of Undesirable Fowls
cuIIed From FIoeks In All
Parts Of the Country,

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
Quality, as well as quantity, Is the
object Of the poultry drive now being
conducted by poultry specialists of the
United States department Of agricul-
trre. Special emphasis was placed last
year on increasing production. This
being accomplished. the poultry spe-
cialists. working In cooperation with
tho state extension forces, now urge
replacement Of mongrel stock with
standardized stock to improve both
production and quality. The campaign
really began last fall when decided in
terest In improved stock was shown by
the number Of undesirable birds culled
from fiocks In all parts Of the coun.
try. The culling work done in Missis-
sippi is illustrative Of what has been
done In many localities. The poultry
specialists worked in nine counties and
secured the culling Of 1,349 fiocks,
from which 10,792 birds, Weighing 25,-
300 pounds, were discarded as un-
profitable producers. As can be seen
from the extremely small average
weight Of the birds culled-2.4 pounds
the poultry stock In this section
needed the culling. The eggs were
small and inferior and did not have
a good standing on the New Orleans
market. Az the culllng campaign pro-
gressed. the poultry specialists urged
tho keeping of improved stock. Enough
progress along this line has already
been made to give Mississippi eggs q
better reputation on the New Orleans
market.
