 Criticisms and Approval by Leghorn Breeders. 



I think the male bird is just about perfect but do 

 not like the hen, as I think she is too low and heavy in 

 body, making her look ducky. I think the Buff Leghorn 

 female in the new Standard is hard to beat. In my opin- 

 ion she is far superior to this one. — Wm. H. Heil. 



I think the tail on female as shown in sketch is a 

 "freak," as it is anything but an ideal Leghorn shape, 

 being not only too short and broad, but also very coarse 



Ideal Female Leghorn Type.

lo' iking, .-\nothcr fault is in tlie back, which is too long, 

 almost a Minorca type. 



The male is good except that personally I would 

 prefer the old Standard lines at base of tail. Too much 

 curve where tail joins back. — Geo. L. Hornbrook. 



I will say frankly that these sketches in my opinion 

 show the ideal Leghorn in both male and female — in fact 

 I have never before had the pleasure of seeing what I 

 consider more perfect sketches and I sincerely hope they 

 will be adopted by the American Poultry Association in 

 another edition of the Standard of Perfection. — O. T. 

 Hallman.
