The principal amusement of the day was dancing, and the large platforms erect- ed by the young men of the sections were full of dancers during the whole afternoon. The excellent music of Mr D Fryfogle, of Belmore, assisted by Messrs Ashton,Ritchie and Saudersnn, added greatly to the pleasure of the dancers. Tile Swings were kept very busy the whole afternoon especially by the school children. tlr D N Mc- Donald, of BNlmore, added areatly to the enjoyment of the picnieers by hav- in, a stand on the grounds and fur- nishing all kinds of refreshments. The Indies of 'the sections deserve great credit for the manner ill which they supplied eatables for the occasion.

A. wILLITTS, WESTON, ONT. (Continued.) There are from two t 1 half a dozen strains of nearly every breed of fowls, and there is a vast difference between them in some instances we have ex- perirueuted with two different strains of the same breed, both lots of fowls being treated in precisely the same Manuel, and have found one strain ex• cellent layers, and the other decidedly iuteror, because they had not been carefully bred for anumber of years, especially for egg production ns the other lot of birds had. It should be remembered as an almost invariable rule that -,like produces like" with thorough -bred stock, and your fowls will pr, duce just what they have been bred to produce; if with your strain of fowls everything has been sacrificed to f+t»cy points you wi 1 dotibticss get exhibition birds,but c,on't expect them to be phenotueual Ihyers, The folly of sacrificing; everything to fancy points is well illustrated in the case of the White Faced Black Spanish, for many years fanciers have been selecting, for breeders the chicks that developed the best white faces, discarding many chicks that in every point but the face were infinitely superior to the bird selected ; this practise cotitinnod year after ,year has had the effect of fixing the white face most un►ni. hkably, and h,%s also ruined the breed physically, rendering then) tender and delicate qnd undecidely it fancy fowl instead of ►he vigorous race of prolific Layers they originally were. ..ow lmd the W F . 13 Spanish been bred for their laying qualities, vignur, and size, paying no attention whatever to :lie white face, which by the way is ail utterly useless feature, they would be bred to -day by thousands, where dozens are'not now to be found, , Just so with any other breed of fowls or straits of that breed, if you constantly breed for one object, you will certainly attain it in time,and itis easier to develope the useful qualities of a breed of fowls than the useless and absured ones. Plymouth R,)cks could in the course of ,years be bred to become a white faced breed ; standard birds of this variety have no white in the face, not even as touch as a pin's point, but occasionally a chick is hatched that developer it white ear lobe, now by selecting these chicks, and brelediug; them together rejecting tea breeders, all birds without the white ear lobe, you would fins! in time thewhite car lobe would become a white face; as evidonce of this it need 0ly-.be mentioned that with- some strains of Black Hamburgte, lvltieh should have a whito eiar lobe, bat not A white face, it is a common occuranae for two year old birds with large lobes to develope into a white face. To attempt to breed a white facie on Plymouth Rocks would ruin the -breed utterly, and much more quickly than it .ruined the Spanish, because they naturally had a white face, but not such till extensive only as we are ac. cuntomad to see.
