are in the front rank because their record places 

 them there. The rich color and distinct pencilling 

 which makes the Partridge Cochin the most beau- 

 tiful of all fowls are line bred characteristics of 

 the Mitchell strain. They are just as strong in 

 shape and their superiority is freely accorded them 

 by judges and breeders everywhere. Their record 

 at the great New York show 1902 is one of their 

 latest grand sweeping victories. They were award- 

 ed ist and 2nd cock, ist and 2nd cockerel, ist and 

 2nd hen, ist and 2nd pullet and ist pen, winning 

 all the firsts offered and all the seconds except one 

 making the greatest record ever obtained by a 

 breeder of this variety. The first prize cockerel 

 was awarded the special prize for the best Cochin 

 of any variety in the entire show competing against 

 the Buffs, Partridges, Whites and Blacks. They 

 have for years won the leading prizes and have 

 competed at the largest shows in America in elud- 

 ing Boston, New York, Buffalo, Indianapolis, 

 Charleston, etc.
