(9.) Anconas have been in great demand for years, and although An- 

 cona breeders continue to increase their capacity, yet there never has been 

 a season when the supply has equaled the demand. This means that there 

 is an unlimited market for breeding stock and eggs for hatching, and at 

 very good prices. There is no reason to believe but what these conditions 

 will continue to prevail for many years. 



If you are alive to your best interests you should be interested 

 in a breed that is "coming" instead of "going;" an "iser" and not a 

 "waser;" a " "going-to-be" rather than a "has-been." The several points 

 of superiority possessed by Anconas, spoken of in this chapter, should 

 cause you to ask the question if there is any other breed of fowls that posess 

 so many points of excellence, and I can frankly answer, there is none! 



It is these things that make Anconas so popular, and these same 

 characteristics will make for their continued leadership among the fowls 

 for profit. 



(10.) Ancona breeders are well organized, and there is a good fellow- 

 ship among them that is more manifest than among most other breeders. 

 They are giving concerted action in upbuilding Ancona interests, and this 

 co-operation is very effective. This means that there are more prizes of- 

 fered on Anconas at the shows, greater publicity is given the breed, with 

 all the attendant advantages, and the demand for Ancona products is con- 

 tinually being extended. 



It is not enough that one "Knows a good thing when he sees it," but 

 he should "Seize a good thing when he knows it." Moral : Get Anconas. 



Other breeds will "lay off," while Anconas "will lay often." The 

 Ancona is the hen that lays, but doesn't get lazy.
