HOW TO HATCH, BROOD, FEED AND PREVENT 



Light Brahmas 



The Light Brahma, by unchallenged right, stands at the head of all 

 thoroughbred poultry. During the past thirty years, while other breeds 

 have had their "ups and downs," the Light Brahmas have stood their own 

 ground, and today they are as much praised and as highly recommended 

 to the general breeder as they were thirty years ago. Any breed that can 

 stand the test of rivalry so long and still continue to satisfy and please the 

 thousands breeding them, must have qualities of a high order. They are 

 the largest of all our poultry, and furnish more pounds of flesh and eggs 

 in twelve months than any other breed of fowls on earth. When full 

 grown the cocks weigh twelve pounds and the hens ten. They are well 

 adapted for all purposes, and are so gentle, handsome and practical, one 

 cannot help but like them.
