1 The original purpose of this breeding was to net progeny of "two bars" or le-* i without chequers). The birds that 

 trave little promise of leading in this direction were usually killed as soon as t hey came to full plumage. KliIToll. 



- "Thus from /-,' to (! we have had onlv 2-barred young, with bars sometimes much below the normal width and density." 

 (G 12) 



3 "This female was barely ,"> months old and mated at once. From this inlirmling I hope to see the bars further reduced." 



4 It is notable that this female was fertile -at least 1 egg of 2 laid when mated with her clutch-mate brother (I 1); 

 there is no record of this offspring after hatching and it probably died before old enough to disclose its color. It seems prob- 

 able, too, that this single clutch was all that, was produced in 1910. Eurroit.
