 Don't expect to buy prize winners or choice-breeding fowls for $1 each. Don't expect lousy birds or birds having very scaiy legs to win the blue ribbons.
 Don't forget to give fowls at least one feed a day so that they will have to work for it. Exercise is health ful and necessary to thrift in the flock
