The funeral was held on Monday, BREEDERS IN THE POULTRY FLOCK Selecting and. Mating Too often in selecting the stock for breeding high egg records or some outstanding feature o fthe sire .or dam are allowed to influence the judg- ment, without due regard to vitality or good breeding qualities that ntay' or may not be present. The selection for vigour and for those desirable qualifications that conform to the breed is comparative- ly simple, because mostly these are visible characters and can be chosen by comparison. Vigour is evident by the carriage, desirable body weight for age and breed, healthand bloom of feather, and good bone formation, while the clean-cut head with clear, bright, and prominent eye in the male and female is a certain indication of brain power and nervous energy and the hall -mark of high vitality and re- productive strength. Sometimes 'for the purpose of com- piling genetical data at the Dominion Experimental Station, at Harrow, it becomes necessary to carry over some undesirable birds in order to obtain the complete family record. But when this information is recorded and be- fore the mating takes place, families are carefully combed for irregularit- ies rregularities and defects and the offending indi- vidual or 'maybe the complete group of parents and offspring are ruthless- ly culled. Only by such drastic prac- tice can the flock be improved and vitality retained. Vigour and freedom from disease should be the essential factors in breeding, with due regard to the propensity of the strain to- wards high production. To select for performance alone and ignore defects .; in constitutional vigour is to court disaster in the future, WhenMose was told that poor Ras- tus had been shot dead by Judge Hicks while he was stealing the judge's chickens, he merely replied: "Oh, well, it 'night have been worse." "How could it have been worse?" indignantly asked the informant. "Poor Rastus dead! De jedge just nachully blow de head right off of him. What could be worse than slat?" "It might have been worse," repeat- ed epeated Mose, "if de jedge fire off de gun de night before, he might have blow . de head off of mel" ,h Crush and stir 3 Aspirin in a third of a glass of water. ablets 2 Gargle thoroughly --throw head way back, aTiewing a Bette to trickle down .throat.
