POINTS CONSIDERED
IN STANDARD BREEDS
Size, Shape and Color Are Out
standing Factors.
Desirable Uniformity of Excellence
Can Be Maintained in Every
Practical Quality by Careful
Selection of Breeders.

Standardized poultry. as the
phrase is commonly used in America,
is DouItry bred to the standards es-
tabiished by the American Poultry
association. The principal points con-
sidered are size, shape and color. say
poultry specialists In the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Size and shape are breed character
istics and largely determine practical
values of poultry. Many standard
breeds are divided into varieties diff
fering in color. but identical in every
orher respect. Color is not pri-
mary utility point. but as a secondary
point often comes in for special con-
sideration. For example, white va
riety and a black variety of the same
breed are actually identical in table
quality. but because some black birds
do not dress for the market as clean
and nice looking as white ones, 1t
often happens that they are not as
salable.
When a flock of fowls is kept for
egg production only, uniformity in
color is much less important than ap-
proximate uniformity in size and type.
vet the more attractive appearance of
a flock of birds of the same color JUS
tifies selection for color as far as it
can be followed without sacrificing
any material point.
When poultry keeper grows his
own stock year after year. he should
by all means use stock of a well-es-
tablished popular standard breed. By
only as many of the best specimens
of the flock as are needed TO produce
the chickens reared each year there
is maintained a highly desirable uni
formity Of excellence in every prac-
teal quality and a pleasing uniform

Late in the winter or early in the
spring the poultry owner should select
and mate his best hens to use for re-
producing his flock To do this he must
choose the seasons breeding stock with
care.
Progress will be made most quickly
by selecting and using the best indi-
viduals in the flock as breeders rather
than by breeding the flock as a whole.
STANDARDIZED ROSTERS of the right
type should be used with the selected
birds; the chickens then will be of a
much higher quality than the birds of
last years flock
Selecting Healthy BOOSTERS.
The selection of male should he In
fluenced largely by the character of the
females used. Any general weakness
in the hens should be offset, so far as
possible, by strength in that particular
in the male.
Only by continuous selection for
health and vigor is it possible 70 build
up a flock that will produce fertile
eggs. strong chicks capable of making
quick growth, and pullets with suffi-
cient stamina TO stand the strain of
heavy egg production.
The appearance of a bird is not al
ways a sure indication of its vigor, but
appearance and action taken together
are a fairly reliable guide. say poultry
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. The comb.
face and wattles should be of good
fright color, the eyes bright and fairly
prominent, and the head broad and
short, having fairly short we'll
curved back and showing no tendency
to be long, "snaky," or "crowheaded."
The bird should be alert and have
strong, vigorous carriage ahe legs set
well apart and strongly supporting the
body. with no indication of weakness
or knock-knees. The bone in the
shank should be strong and not too
fine for the breed, with the toes
strong, straight and not too long.

a lack of condition often accompanies
